Excerpt from Statutes of Iowa Relating to Railways, and Notes of Decisions Thereunder: From the Report of the Railroad Commissioners for 1890

The following pages give the statutes of this state now in force, directly relating to railroads. The sections are printed in the order in which they occur in mcclain's Annotated Code of 1888, with the amend ments and additional statutes of the twenty-third General Assembly (1890) incorporated in the proper places. The numbers of the sections are the same as in the Annotated Code. At the beginning of each section, after the catch words, is given the number of the section in the Code of 1873 (the last compilation of the state statutes made by public authority), or if the section is part of a statute passed since the adoption of said Code, then a reference to the session, chapter, and section. Where a section of the Code of 1873 or of a subsequent statute has been amended, the amending statute is also referred to at the beginning of the section, which is then printed. As thus changed. At the end of each section, in brackets, are given references to corresponding sections of the Revision of 1860, the Code of 1851, and statutes passed prior to 1873. These last named references are of no importance in determining what the law now is but show what the legislative history of the section has been.
