Book excerpt: For nearly a hundred years now we have been upbuilding the railroad structure of the world. America pioneered in its creation. Our fathers and our fathers' fathers cannot now remember the day when the call of the iron horse was not heard across the land. The railroad train has become part and parcel of our lives. And even though in these days with our motor cars at the curb we may have come to scorn the railroad train for our own short travels, we know full well that it brings the milk to our doorstep, the coal to our bins, the provender to our larders. It helps weave the fabric upon our backs, build the shoes upon our feet, form the hats upon our heads. At every corner, every turn, we are dependent upon the railroad. Therefore there is not a man or a woman in the entire United States to whom its present plight should not be of the keenest interest and importance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Railroads to-Morrow Do you chance to recall the story of Frankenstein, of the man-made monster, who, having been created, arose to slay the man who had created him? The railroad to-day is in much the position of the man who created the Frankenstein. Having in no small sense created the modern world, having riveted its very sinews of commerce together, it now stands in apparent danger of collapse. The world over, it is at least in peril of bankruptcy. Everywhere it is in trouble. One of the greatest if not indeed the greatest of factors in our social and commercial structure to-day is flying the signals of distress. Its perplexities are upon all tongues. Their solution seemingly has become the problem of all men. The railroad is almost the single great unsolved economic problem of the entire world to-day. The sweep of a great war, the debris of men and of human understanding that followed in its wake, the new and independent position of labor everywhere, the vast increases in fuel and in raw material costs all have contributed to the serious embarrassment of our railroads. But never to their breakdown. Please remember this. It is a common phrase these days to allude to "the breakdown of the railroads." But it is an incorrect phrase, decidedly incorrect. Even in Russia, where transport conditions to-day are the worst anywhere in the world, there has not been a complete railroad breakdown.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Labor and the Railroads In this country, to a greater extent, perhaps, than in any other, public Opinion should be termed popular Opinion, consequently it is very human and natural in its characteristics. Today it is radical, to-morrow conservative, but at all times it has its ear to the ground to catch lessons from history. While at times it may appear to be longsuffering and indifferent, it is, nevertheless, very slow to forgive an injury. This is the teaching of instinct, which is as noticeable in the behavior of a nation as in that of an individual. Just at present, for ex ample, popular Opinion cannot make up its mind to deal reasonably with corporations and managers. It has now to be educated to treat these people fairly. But the corporations cannot expect the public to arrive at the unassisted conclusion that their business, generally speaking, is now above board and legitimate. It thus becomes their duty to advertise and demonstrate these facts. Recon ciliation is certain to follow frankness and pub licity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Strategy of Great Railroads Busied with its transportation concerns, the house saw the earliest alignment of those political movements in the United States that resulted in the most stupendous civil con ict Of modern times. They stuck to their ferryboats and their junk rails when Beecher was the pulpit and Greeley and Bennett and Raymond were the press Of this country. While still active in their busi ness they have seen the rise of every existing political party, and they may easily survive the Obsequies of the last Of them as they stand to-day. In the stage-coach and the canal mule they met and overcame the threatening competition Of fifty years ago; and their forces would face to-morrow with equal steadiness a billion-dollar invasion of their railroad territory. They alone, in all the railroad World Of to-day, go back, owners and managers in unbroken succession, Of the tele phone, the cable, and the telegraph. Nor in all that time have they ever wrecked a railroad or maintained a poor one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
