Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Railways and the Republic A new social power sometimes rises to immense proportions before its nature and effects are under stood. The full bearing of its heretofore unknown forces upon future generations can then be learned only by experience. The mediaeval rulers who first organized their realms into feudal holdings saw only that the barons would afi'ord military protection against savage enemies, and preserve order among scarcely more civilized subjects. But they hardly dreamed of the rise of powerful feudal princes whose power would be greater than the throne from which they obtained it, and who could set up and pull down kings at their will. The men who first wrote pamphlets in favor of education and justice for the lower orders of France could not foresee the terrible outburst of popular strength which was fated to involve in one common destruction both the instrumentalities which had main tained oppression for centuries and the men who had made the first uncertain steps towards asserting the rights of man. Watt could see in the steam which lifted the lid from the tea-kettle a force which might yield man some aid in his labors; but he could not.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Congressional History of Railways in the United States, Vol. 2: The Railway in Congress: 1850 1887 The period covered by the present work extends from 1850 to 1887, from the beginning of the rapid growth of railway systems to the Interstate Commerce Act. In but a little more than a generation there was tremendous mansion in railways, in society, in social consciousness, and in government. Nor mally, the aid aspect became smaller and smaller, dwindling to a sort of negative aid which a railway receives when the friction of political machinery retards or prevents the hostile working of social conscience or public opinion; and regulation grew, chang ing from a negative disburdening of commerce from private restrictions to a more positive control. The demand for rail ways had become more qualitative. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railway Practice: Its Principles and Suggested Reforms Reviewed The literature of that very considerable and important problem first called by Mr. Adams the Railway Problem, has recently been enlarged if not enriched by two proposed solutions. The one is offered by Mr. T. F. Hudson, in his volume called The Railways and the Republic. The other by Prof. R. T. Ely, in Harper's Magazine for July, August, and September. A third proposed solution has long been before the public in the Reagan bill, which has twice passed the House but has failed in the Senate. As the three solutions disagree radically in principle, and are at odds with the methods of reform which the railroad managers themselves are endeavoring to put into operation, it is clear that some confusion exists in the premises from which the different parties start. I propose to examine these premises briefly, and see if any such confusion cannot be removed. Surely after fifty years of experiment, and a develop ment covering all civilized countries, there must be to-day a few principles, settled by actual test, and put beyond question or dispute, making what we might call the present state of the science of railway management. If there are such, on which we can firmly ground ourselves. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Factors Underlying the Leadership of the Railways of America Every time I come back from a foreign journey, whether from the Orient, or from the western nations, or from those that lie south of us, I have a deepened sense of appreciation of the unique and stupendous service rendered by the railways of America to the upbuilding of the life of our nation. It is due to the railways that we have had the almost unbelievable development of the vast material resources of the American continent. It is due to the railway service, and this is often overlooked, that there has been facilitated so largely the nation-wide dissemination of intelligence as well as the physical and social well-being of the American people. Likewise, the railways have done more than any other one factor to promote the unity of the nation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Country's Need of Greater Railway Facilities and Terminals The railroads of the United States are entitled to both confidence and relief because they have not abus ed their trust in the matter of capitalization. While, to make possible the raising of money, stock-bonuses undoubtedly were given in their earlier history, it is true of them as a whole today that they have by far the smallest capitalization per mile in the world; and that they have kept their capitalization low by using for betterments millions of earnings which anywhere in Europe would have been handed over to stockhold ers, leaving the cost of improvements to be charged to capital account. This is one of the best-established facts in railroad history, though few people yet realize how great is the difference in our favor.

Download or read book State Railways written by Edwin A. Pratt and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from State Railways: Object Lessons From Other Lands The nationalisation of our railways represents a policy which has been advocated from time to time by various groups of persons, influenced thereto by wholly different motives. It is naturally favoured most strongly by the Socialists, in their demand for the transfer to the State of all the main sources of production and means of transport. There is, in fact, a Bill now before the House of Commons, the objects of which are - (1) To confer upon the Local Government Board powers to acquire the ownership of mines, canals, and railways. (2) To confer upon the Local Government Board certain powers of user of the property so acquired and for leasing thereof. (3) To prevent the aforesaid property falling into private ownership again. Then there are individuals who, without professing avowedly Socialist principles, think that, if the State owned the railways, it would be able to utilise the earnings from them in relief of the general tax-payer. There are traders who regard nationalisation of the railways as the one great remedy for all the transport disadvantages from which they may consider they suffer.
