Munn v. Illinois, 94 US 113 (1877)The question that the case was concerned with was whether a state could regulate charges for grain elevators. This is expanded - using the idea that a state has the right to regulate commerce within that state - to the fact that if a private utility is used in the public good, it should be regulated by the state, as the state is acting on behalf of the people's interest.Granger laws were legal...Apex...:)

Absolutely nothing.
Munn v. Illinois, 94 US 113 (1877)The US Supreme Court defined certain private businesses as "private utilities" operating in the public interest, and gave the States the right to regulate the prices they charged their customers. Munn specifically addressed the use of grain elevators, but the Court's decision applied the regulatory rights across a broad spectrum of industries, including railroads, that operated intrastate.
the Interstate Commerce Commission
The Supreme Court case that overturned Munn v. Illinois was Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific Railroad Co. v. Illinois (1886). In this case, the Supreme Court ruled that states could not regulate rates for interstate railroad traffic because it violated the Commerce Clause of the Constitution, which grants Congress the power to regulate interstate commerce. This decision limited the ability of states to regulate certain aspects of interstate commerce.
