Intrastate rales are pointed wit-en unreasonable theee- fore they should be lowered us u mat ter ot' right, and without regard to any retaliation. The railways have not been compelled to abolish grade, cross ings; this has meant a contribution of many lives by the State of .North Car olina. Urade crossings, therefore, should be legislated out of existence as a mailer ot right, ot public mi tot. v und convenience, and without reter etioe to any diflerences on the sub ject ot interstate rates between the state and the railroads. Mr. Justice further suggest that a license, tax on railroads that will put a large sum of money into " t-he State treasury would be 'justifiable on the ground that, com paratively speaking, their tariffs In this State are excessive, "t trust," he sas, "that the opinion will not prevail that the State can do nothing but engage in unjust retaliations against the rai roads."
