Page 107 - The fact that an article is manufactured for export To another State does not of itself make it an article of interstate commerce, and the intent of the manufacturer does not determine the time when the article or product passes from the control of the State and belongs to commerce.
Page 109 - Property does become clothed with a public interest when used in a manner to make it of public consequence, and affect the community at large.

It was foreseen that this would be a perilous and difficult, if not an impracticable task.
Page 109 - There is no doubt that the general principle is favored, both in law and justice, that every man may fix what price he pleases upon his own property, or the use of it; but if for a particular purpose the public have a right to resort to his premises and make use of them, and he have a monopoly in them for that purpose, if he will take the benefit of that monopoly, he must, as an equivalent, perform the duty attached to it on reasonable terms.
