How the Railroads Evade the State
The Albia Union accuses Burlington and Town Central railroads of aiding breweries to violate liquor laws. Cars are sealed at stations then seals removed by brewery agents who move goods to consumers while railroads claim no delivery to consignees. Railroads act as common carriers or as adjuncts to breweries, prompting calls to the state attorney general or railway commissioners to determine their status.
