Σελίδα 158 - The question of the reasonableness of a rate of charge for transportation by a railroad company, involving as it does the element of reasonableness both as regards the company and as regards the public, is eminently a question for judicial investigation, requiring due process of law for its determination.

Σελίδα 158 - These cases all support the proposition that, while it is not the province of the court to enter upon the merely administrative duty of framing a tariff of rates for carriage, it is within the scope of judicial power and a part of judicial duty to restrain anything which in the form of a regulation of rates operates to deny to the owners of property invested in the business of transportation...
Σελίδα 83 - The review shall not be extended further than to determine whether the commission has regularly pursued its authority, including a determination of whether the order or decision under review violates any right of the petitioner under the constitution of the United States or of the State of California.
Σελίδα 155 - ... every man for his passage pays a toll, which is a common charge, and every ferry ought to be under a public regulation, viz. : that it give attendance at due times, keep a boat in due order, and take but reasonable toll ; for if he fail in these he is finable.
