this theory worked on the value of the
railroads lands. He declared that the
lower court was in error in adding 30
per cent to the normal value OF the
land in some i,ltances and 200 per
cent at the big terminals, in arriving
at what the court considered the cost
OF reproduction Of Its property
1T is manifest that an attempt to es-
innate what would be the actual cost
Of acquiring the right Of way. II the

mere speculation.

Justice Hughes said that the railroad
would have no ground to complain if it
were allowed value for its lands equal
to the fair average market value Of
similar lands in the vicinity. without
additions by the use Of multipliers or
otherwise to cover hypothetical OUTLAWS.

implied because of dormant federal
power. that is one which has not been
eNerted; but can only be found in the
actual exercise Of federal control in
such measure as to exclude this action
BY the state which otherwire would
clearly be within its province"
In taking up the confscatory phase
Of the controversy Justice Hughes first
considered whether the rates were con-
fiscatory as applied to the Northern
Pacific. He said this would turn up

declared that this use could not be

said he, then the validity of the states
reduction OF rates would have to be
tested by the very rates which the state
denounced as exorbitant." He added
that it would not be impossible to
ascertain some kind OF units by
which the property could be divided
both between interstate and intrastate
business on the one hand and between
passenger and freight business on the
other. He did not point out what this

But this statewide authority con-
trolls the carrier and is not controlled
by it: and the idea that the power of
the state to fix reasonable rates for its
internal traffic is limited by the mere
action of the carrier in laying an in

states border is foreign to our juris-
diction. II this authority of the state
