This implies that no property can be taken for private use. railroad company is person within the mean ing of the constitution. Railroad companies have right to collect cash fares from those whom they transport over their lines. To take away this right. so far as members of the General Assembly are concern ed, is to lessen to a Corresponding amount the property of the railroad private use of a particular class Of Travellers
 "The fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States seems to me equally violated.
 This bill singles out a particular class of persons (railroad companiesJ and makes law discrimfnatfug against them in favor of another par ticular class of persons but not apply ing to the community in general
 Tt would also deprive railroad companies of property without due process of law if they were to lose the right to charge members and employ es of the general assembly for trans portation to and from the capital, not by reason of any Judicial proceeding but by the mere fiat of a legislative body.
 According to these naxinns and principles of law, the acceptance of a charter franchise to construct and operates railroad implies a contract by the state that such operation shall not be unreasonabIy restricted by leg islative requirements subsequently, i'm pressed. Any such requirements as would prevent a railroad company so far it had built it's raiIfead, from making it's operation reasouabIe charges against those seeking trans portation over the line would be a deprivation of property without due process of law.
 'tThe charter of every private cor poration, when accepted, is a contract with the state. Although the state may have a reserved power to alter. amend or repeal such charter at pleas ure, such power is not without limit. It cannot be exercised in such a way as to deprive a corporation or It's shareholders of all benefits from their outlay under the charter. The aItera- tions must be reasonable and be con sistent with the scope and object of the act of incorporation. An amend n1ent to a railroad charter, therefore. requiring it to transport either all per sons or a particular class of persons free of charge or at a charge less than reasonable would be imperative uu- less justified by a public purpose
 ftIn my opinion, no justifia b1e pub lie purpose exists in respect to the bill now AInder consideration
 E'The purpose of this bill is to en- large the compensation fixed by law of those members and eTn pIoyes bT-rs- Iieving them of the necessity or re- straint upon all other members Of the community and of other officers or empIoyes of the state of paying cer- tain sums of money for certain ser vices, the benefit of which they de- sire.
 fHThe general assembly has no greater right in this respect than to amend a charter of a common carrier which it has gifted with the power Of eminent domain than that Of any other private corporation Tn my Judgment. 1t cannot, as proposed in this bill, require a common carrier to carry it's members free any more than it could require an inn-keeper to entertain it's members free"
