The department shall exercise constant diligence to ascertain the      rates, charges, rules, and practices of common carriers operating in      this state, in relation to the transportation of freight in      interstate business.  When it shall ascertain from any source or have      reasonable grounds to believe that the rates charged on such      interstate business or the rules or practices in relation thereto      discriminate unjustly against any of the citizens, industries,      interests, or localities of the state, or place any of them at an      unreasonable disadvantage as compared with those of other states, or      are in violation of the laws of the United States regulating      commerce, or in conflict with the rulings, orders, or regulations of      the surface transportation board, the department shall take the      necessary steps to prevent the continuance of such rates, rules, or      practices.
