This book was released on 2017-12-24 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctrine of Presumed Dedication of Private Property to Public Use, in Its Application to Railroads In the April (1881) number of the "North American Review," I published an article on "The Ownership of Railroad Property." It was the object of that article to maintain that the property of railroad corporations, which has been purchased by private funds, has all the attributes of private property; and that, unless the charter of the corporation, or some law of the State which, by fair implication, or by express provision, is to be regarded as a part of the contract between the State and the corporation, has reserved to the State a power to regulate the rates of fare and freight, the corporation has the same right to fix its own rates as the owner of any other property has to determine the price for which he will allow the use of his property, and will render his personal services in connection with that use.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ...to public squares, common lots, burying grounds, school lots, and lots for church purposes and pious and charitable uses generally, and in many cases where the use was, either expressly or from the necessity of the case, limited to a small portion of the public. But we are referred to no decision, and we think none can be found, where a dedication of this character, made for any other purpose than one strictly public, has been sustained."2 Though a railroad corporation is charged with public duties, its property is private property, acquired for the purposes of a private enterprise. "The corporation, for its own profit and advantage, accepts the franchises offered by the State, and assumes to perform the functions and duties required by the State, but with its own property. The ownership of the property is private, though the use required to be made of it is public. The private ownership prevents the acquisition of it by dedication." 3 A dedication cannot be made to a part only of the public, as, for instance, to a parish.4 A permission to a certain part of the public to use a way is a license and not a dedication.5 It is not necessary that all the public should actually use a way to constitute it a public highway, but only that its use should be open to the public in general.6 444. A dedication can only be made by the owner of the land in fee.7 A mortgagor as against the mortgagee and those claiming nnder him cannot make a valid dedication, although the mortgagor is the owner as to all other persons, and they cannot object to his dedication. The mortgagee may make the dedication good by assenting to it.1 One in the actual possession and occupancy of land, but not owning the legal title, cannot make an effectual...
Download or read book Law of Eminent Domain and of Railroads and Warehouses Classic Reprint written by W. H. Manier and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Law of Eminent Domain, and of Railroads and Warehouses Illinois has been one of the first states which has attempted to regulate and control railway and other corporations by general laws, and many questions have arisen both as to the constitutional power of the legislature to regulate the same, and as to the proper construction of laws enacted for that purpose. These questions have been ably discussed by eminent counsel on both sides, and it would seem that almost every question has been presented and passed upon by our courts. This has resulted in many decisions, which lie scattered through nearly all our State reports, thus making them difficult of access. This fact induced the author to present this compilation of the statutes and decisions in a single volume, hoping thereby to serve the profession and the courts. He has presented all the statute laws on the subject of Eminent Domain, Railways and Public Warehouses, together with the decisions of the Appellate Court and Supreme Court of the State and those of the Federal Courts, and some of the more important decisions of the courts of last resorts in other states. That part of the work relating to Eminent Domain will be found useful in many if not all the states. The decisions collected include all made since the admission of Illinois into the Union. They embrace much relating to the right to condemn land for public use, and by what bodies or agencies, and the mode of the exercise of the right, both under the Constitution of 1848 and that of 1870. This is especially true as to the proper measure of the compensation and damages to be paid by the bodies seeking to condemn. The cases given relate to condemnation by cities and villages of land for parks and other public uses, and for railway purposes. The cases denning the right of one railway company to condemn a right of way over or along another railway, or to condemn property already devoted to a public use, will be found useful, not only to the profession in this State, but throughout the whole country.

Download or read book Human Dimension and Interior Space written by Julius Panero and published by Watson-Guptill. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of human body measurements on a comparative basis is known as anthropometrics. Its applicability to the design process is seen in the physical fit, or interface, between the human body and the various components of interior space. Human Dimension and Interior Space is the first major anthropometrically based reference book of design standards for use by all those involved with the physical planning and detailing of interiors, including interior designers, architects, furniture designers, builders, industrial designers, and students of design. The use of anthropometric data, although no substitute for good design or sound professional judgment should be viewed as one of the many tools required in the design process. This comprehensive overview of anthropometrics consists of three parts. The first part deals with the theory and application of anthropometrics and includes a special section dealing with physically disabled and elderly people. It provides the designer with the fundamentals of anthropometrics and a basic understanding of how interior design standards are established. The second part contains easy-to-read, illustrated anthropometric tables, which provide the most current data available on human body size, organized by age and percentile groupings. Also included is data relative to the range of joint motion and body sizes of children. The third part contains hundreds of dimensioned drawings, illustrating in plan and section the proper anthropometrically based relationship between user and space. The types of spaces range from residential and commercial to recreational and institutional, and all dimensions include metric conversions. In the Epilogue, the authors challenge the interior design profession, the building industry, and the furniture manufacturer to seriously explore the problem of adjustability in design. They expose the fallacy of designing to accommodate the so-called average man, who, in fact, does not exist. Using government data, including studies prepared by Dr. Howard Stoudt, Dr. Albert Damon, and Dr. Ross McFarland, formerly of the Harvard School of Public Health, and Jean Roberts of the U.S. Public Health Service, Panero and Zelnik have devised a system of interior design reference standards, easily understood through a series of charts and situation drawings. With Human Dimension and Interior Space, these standards are now accessible to all designers of interior environments.
