Of the State Railway board. has been called
upon 20 furnish legal opinions upon the
right Of elevator and warehouse companies
TO condemn sites on the right-of-Ray of
railroad companies. one OF which is OF i'm
portanee- The opinion concludes as fol-
lows:
IF elevator and warehouse coupanjes
feel that the rate Of rent charged 10 them
Is excessive and not based on the actual
value Of the property. then the only re-
course left to them is TO follow the pro-
eedure outlined by the statute OF this
state and condemn a site on the right-of-
way Of the railway company.
When such elevator site has been con-
demned and compensation paid TO the rail-
way company the elevator company Will
then have the absolute right to occupy
the premises without any charge what,
