Utilities Commission, but they arc quarreling
about the details,--whether the commissioners
shall be elected or appointed bill before the
Legislature abolishes the present State Railroad
Commission of New Jersey and creates a Pub
lie Utilities Commission of four members The
salary is to be $4,000 for each commissioner which
must make few Deawareans think at once
that commissions are good things-provded
they could be the commissioners.
The commission under the bill is empowered
to appoint necessary officers and is given author
ty to regulate street railway lines, express COM
panies, electric light and telephone companies
and the railroads of the State-in fact, all cor
porations commonly known as public service cor
porations. The commission is to have rate maxi
ing power and the corporations will have author
ity to appeal TO the Supreme Court of the State,
against any of the rulings of the commission, but
such appeal is not to act as a stay unless the
court so directs. The efficiency of the service
of corporations may be inquired into by the COM
missioners and recommendations for improve
ment can be made. 1t would be much better to
have the commissioners chosen by the people
rather than appointed.
Most states are going towards the Public Ser
vice Commission idea if they have not already
such commissions. They are acting on the prn-
ciple that the proper method of dealing with
public service corporations is to regulate them,
rather than to give franchises indiscriminately
for rival public service corporations.
Here in Delaware, the matter has been
broached occasionally, but it has not been SER
ously considered by our Legislature. Some
time before the Brandywine rocks begin to crum-
BILE with age, we may have Public Utility Com
mission in this State We believe it would be
satisfactory both to the people and to the corpo-
rations themselves.

Local Option Election
Laurel Register.


There is a peculiar significance in the
fact that the more ultra Of the license and
antl-license advocates seem pleased over
the defeat Of the Drexler bill fixing stated
periods for voting on the question OF local
option. To the ordinary clean, and un-
trammeled election loving citizen It must
appear that the leaders on both sides Of
this wet and dry issue desire to Keep
on the job" as street parlance would put
it. In other words IL does appear that the
Anti-Salcon League managers and the
liquor lobbyists desire that this question
shall be mixed up I'm our general elections
every two years. For just as certain as the
elections are held, It Will be there TO tor
ment and annoy. and interfere with gem

SHOULD HAVE ROAD ENGINEERS.

HE Milford Chronicle pertinently comments
= on the good roads measures before the
Legislature. The Chronicle is opposed to the
appropriations carried by the good roads
measures for the lower counties because the
money would be placed in the hands Of the pres
ent overseers for distribution and expenditure.
The Chronicle points out that in the lower
counties there is no organized system for build
ing the roads. Another reason is that the men
appointed road overseers are not chosen be-
cause of their eXpertness in road building and
there is no responsible head to the entire road
work.
This is an important matter and, as the Chron-
icle says the Senate should supply the de6cien-
cies in the bill or the Governor should veto the
measure. Many will believe that if the money
for good roads is TO be expended in the haphaz-
ard manner that has characterized the road
building in the lower counties, it will be frttered
away.
There is no reason why both Of the lower
counties, if they propose to improve their roads,
should not have competent road engineers. That
is what they have in New York State and in 9TH
er communities where road Improvement is be-
ing pushed in an intelligent manner. Road over
sccrs should not be named because of their po-
litical work and a reward for such effort
Road building is business matter requiring en-
gineering skill 1t concerns directly the people
OF the neighborhood and it involves large ex-
penditures of money
Perhaps the Levy Courts OF the lower counties
intend to reorganize their system of road build
ing as they must realize that no sure progress car
be made towards good roads so long as the pres
cnt method is followed.
