Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Digest of the Decisions of the Railroad Commission of Wisconsin: Covering the Decisions Published in Volumes I to XV, Inclusive, of the Commission's Official Reports July 20, 1905, to February 4, 1915 In the compilation of this digest the aim has been to state briefly and yet clearly the principles and facts set forth in the decisions of the Commission published in Volumes I to XV, inclusive, of the Commission's Reports. Where feasible the exact language of the Commission has been used. The general plan of the Index-Digest found at the back of each volume of the Reports has been followed, but several departures therefrom are to be noted. Wherever possible the repetition of paragraph headings has been eliminated and where a portion of a paragraph heading which is pertinent recurs, it has been omitted and the ommission is indicated by a dash. The full paragraph heading and the subtitles are, however repeated at the beginning of the first paragraph on each left-hand page. The paragraph headings have also been shortened by the introduction, of a more detailed system of subheadings. The type used in the titles and headings has been selected with an idea of readily marking the various divisions and subdivisions. The inclusion of an index is deemed superfluous in that the subject titles are arranged alphabetically and supplemented by a system of detailed cross-references which, in fact, makes the digest an index. In the table of cases reported the cases are classified according to the kind of utility affected, and where more than one plant of a joint utility is concerned the case is listed in each of the classes affected. Corporate names containing the name of an individual are listed under both the given name and the surname. Names of municipal corporations are not listed under the prefix "City of," "Town of," etc. In the localities index the cases affecting a locality are listed alphabetically according to the kind of service furnished, i.e., electric railway, electric utility, express, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
