One OF our city contemporaries argues
that 'sa railway is the exclusive property
OF private corporation, which has the
undoubted right 10 do what it will with its
own; to run its tralns or to stop them, to
charge what rates it pleases," to. We're
this the Law, We should resolutely set to
work to change it, aud the best lawyer is
at all times he who can change the law
But in the widest usurpatIons Of the rail-
wsys they have never chained fot then,-
selves any such IMMUNITY from public con-
troll, nor hare either the Legislatures or
the courts conceded it, or any thing like it.
4 railway is, in the first place, common
carrier. and Is held by the Law to certain
obligation to dcal equally and fairly
with its customers, though some differences
md inpcrfecuons prevail in carrying ont
this rule. Bot, chiefly, railway is in

sense that the company alone has the right

collect freights and fares.
There Is, in fact, therefore, partner:
