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.
Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific Railway Co. v. Illinois (1886) differed from earlier cases like Munn v. Illinois (1877) and Peik v. Chicago & North Western Railway Co. (1876) in its emphasis on interstate commerce. While Munn and Peik upheld state regulation of businesses affecting public interest, Wabash ruled that states could not regulate interstate railroads, asserting that such authority belonged to the federal government. This marked a shift towards recognizing the limitations of state power in matters of interstate commerce.
Munn v. Illinois (1877) was the supreme court ruling that declared that grange laws were constitutional. The decision was based on the argument that railroads provided a public service and therefore were not completely private.
