Book excerpt: Excerpt from Postal Express as a Solution of the Parcels, Post and High Cost of Living Problems: An Adequate Express Service, Relief to Consumes and Shippers by a Reduction of Changes and Extension of Service to the Country Through Rural Delivery, a Study in the Economics of the Transport of Small Shipments The Chairman. It will be necessary that you first be sworn, Mr. Lewis. (Hon. David J. Lewis was thereupon duly sworn by the chairman.) The Chairman. You are a Member of the House of Representatives, are you not, Mr. Lewis? Mr. Lewis. Yes. The Chairman. Representing the sixth district of Maryland? Mr. Lewis. Yes, sir. Gentlemen of the committee, the country owes you its emphatic approval for giving your already overburdened time and energies to the subject of packet and express transportation. It is probably exactly correct to say that the subject has never received in this country a thorough canvass; and I regard the circumstances of the investigation before this body as especially propitious. I say this because when this committee announces the conclusions it may reach it will speak with the voice of authority. It should, therefore, consider the subject, and it should speak. It may facilitate the presentation of my matter if I indicate in a topical way the features of the subject I mean to discuss. There are two main divisions, the passenger-express business and a system of fast-freight express. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: "During the first century of the republic, two modes of communication at a distance - telecommunications - were etched into lands inhabited by Native Americans; contested by rival European powers; and occupied by the United States. Both telecommunications systems supported this expanding US territorial empire but, despite this overarching commonality, they branched apart in other ways. One network was owned by the state and the other by capital, and the two branches of the telecommunications system developed disparate rate structures, patterns of access, and social and institutional relationships. During the decades after the Civil War their divergence became politically charged. Would one model prevail over the other? Going forward, would it be the government Post Office or the corporate telegraph that set the terms of telecommunications development? The Post Office was the nation's originating system for communication at a distance. Both before and long after it was elevated to a cabinet department in 1829, furthermore, the Post Office was by far the largest unit of the central state. In 1831, the nation's 8700 postmasters comprised three-quarters of federal civilian employment; half a century later (excluding temporary postal employees and ordinary and railway mail clerks and letter carriers), some 50,000 postmasters accounted for perhaps one-third of all civilian employees in the executive branch. Though its relative weight as a government employer diminished after this, its workforce continued to swell. During the last two antebellum decades, meanwhile, an emergent technology - the electrical telegraph - was passed quickly from the federal government to private capital. The two systems' institutional identities immediately began to contrast in other ways"--
