The commission could act as a tribunal to adjudicate conflicting interestes and, in certain situations, save regulated companies from the effects of cutthroat competition to the benefit of private and public interests alike.
The commission idea was not without it's critics, and more will be said on that later. In Great Britain, where the commission approach has an even older history, criticism was intense from the beginning. While the railroad was still in its infancy, the vexatious question of carrying charges led to the creation of a panel of Railway Commissioners in 1846. This perceived trent towardsgovernment commissions led Joshua t. Smaith, in a book published in 1849, to denounce all commissions as "the chosen instruments of schemers and enimies of public liberty." In the more hospitable climate, the idea of the independant reglatory commission did not at first flourish and, it was from the U.S. experience that Canadian, and particularly prairie, goverments drew their inspiration.

hmm... while my nearest book has 123 pages there is nothing written on them yet. Same with the other nearest book. (Lab notebooks)

I don't even have a paper with a page number 123 on it...(pg526-533 but not pg 123).

Okay I gues the next stop is the bookshelf on my desk:
oh look pg 123 it's empty (Lambda II).

...it's empty for two books (NEB catelogue)...

it's a conspiricy.

You know it's bad when you get to pg 123 of a little used Biorad catalogue:
731-8232 Female Luer Plug 25 polypropylene
731-8233 Male Luer Plug 25 polypropylene
731-8229 Female Luer T-Connector 10 polypropylene
732-8302 0.8mm Barb T-Connector, recommended for minimal dead-volume connection 25 polypropylene
