Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Annual Report of the Board of Railroad Commissioners: For the Year Ending June 30, 1878 At the same time they recognized the act of the Legislature as the only expression of the will of the people to which they could listen, and the commands of the act as the ones which they must heed and obey. They understood that the rigid schedule of rates imposed by the Tariff Law had been condemned as too narrow, incomplete and unjust, and that restraints were removed, not to give the railroad com panies absolute liberty of action, but rather to remove the chafing bands and fetters of which the companies had so much complained. They understood that the provisions of the act were not fully known and completely comprehended by a very large body of the citizens of Iowa, and that very many supposed that the Board had been made the grand reservoir of the powers of the State, so recently declared and established by the highest court in the land. And yet they found their powers, except those of a general and supervisory nature, very much limited and prescribed by the terms of the act, and thatin fact, in most instances their duties were to advise and express Opinions without any power to compel performance or respect decisions made. They well know also that many regarded this want of power in the Commission ers as a fatal defect in the scheme proposed by the Legislature; while on the other hand the idea of the act, namely, a supervisory power in a board with actual and ultimate power in the Legislature, chosen period ically by and from the people, was the very vital idea of the policy or scheme proposed. The body of the people, the railroad companies and the Commissioners themselves were unfamiliar with the practical workings of the plan or policy adopted, Recognizing fully all these, and many other difficulties and embarrassments which have not been enumerated, the Commissioners claim for themselves an earnest desire and purpose to endeavor the faithful discharge of the duties imposed, to observe carefully all the details and workings of the new policy, to conceal nothing, to extenuate nothing and to fully report all their acts, their observations and conclusions to the Governor as required by law to do.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Second Annual Report of the Board of Railroad Commissioners: For the Year Ending December 1, 1884 Sir - In accordance with the requirements of the provisions of section 6 of the act of the Legislature of Kansas, approved March 6, 1883, concern ing railroads and other common carriers, we have the honor herewith to submit to you our second annual report. In this report we have included statements and statistics gathered from the returns to this office of the various railroad companies operating in this State, and such of the decisions rendered by the Board in the settlement of controversies and complaints as would in our judgment tend to throw light upon the workings of the system of railroad transportation in the State, in so far as the same are affected by the regulative features of the law. The Board are in numerous instances able to settle causes of complaint without the necessity for formal investigation and decision, either through personal interviews with railroad officers, or through correspondence. The orders and recommendations of the Board have during the past year been, in nearly every instance, adopted and obeyed by the managers of rail roads. They have quite promptly and adequately responded to the requests of the Board for information pertaining to their roads. Railroad building has been much less active the past year than it had been for several years previous. In this State for the year ending June 30, 884, miles of additional main track had been built, and miles of additional side track. Upon several of the leading lines or systems of railroads there has been a material falling-off of earnings compared with the preceding year. On the Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe road, including branch lines, the gross earnings for the year ending June 30, 1884, were against for the preceding year, a decrease of The Operating expenses were less in 1884 than in 1883 by still leaving a net decrease of income from earnings of compared with the previous year.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Second Annual Report of the Board of Railroad Commissioners, for the Year Ending June 30, 1879 No change has taken place in the organization or membership of the Board since the date of our last report. Many of the difficulties which surrounded us at that time, and some confusion of thought due mainly to a new situation, a new law, and inexperienced men to con strue it, have disappeared before calm consideration and a more thorough study of the law and its meaning, and a riper acquaintance with the duties required and the modes of solving difficulties presented. In no direction have we seemed to find better progress than in the direction of a liberal construction of our powers under that clause of section 3 of the act establishing a Board of Railroad Commissioners, which confers upon the Board of Commissioners the general super vision of all railroads in the State operated by steam, and the duty imposed as a result to inquire, examine and inspect the condition, equipment, manner of conduct and management of railroads, all with reference to public safety and convenience.
