Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the State Board of Drainage Commissioners, at a Meeting Held May 28, 1880: Formation of Drainage District No; 1; Report of the State Engineer in the Matter of a Drainage District for the Sacramento Valley According to this report the river steamers, sixty in number, in constant or occasional use on these waters, have a total tonnage of ten thousand nine hundred and ninety tons, and the forty barges, ten thousand six hundred and seventy-three tons. At page 54, I find, after certain tabular statistics, of which the above is a summary, so far as they apply to river steamers and barges, the following: It will be seen by the foregoing that the water-craft, engaged on our inland waters and along the coast, comprises a very important part of the total of the transportation facilities of the State. As a rule no railroad can supersede transportation by water, unless it can perform the like service more cheaply and advantageously; and when this happens, it follows that the shipper reaps the benefit. 'no one at this time would advocate a statutory prohibition of competition, although that is not wholly free from irritation, by producing discrimination. It has been suggested and recommended that competition in this State be fostered, even by the establishment and maintenance of river and ocean lines of steamers, with rates fixed by the State, and that State aid be given to maintain such rates when not remunerative. At page 58, under the head of Railroad Monopoly, the Honorable Commissioner sets forth very clearly the value of the navigable streams to the State at large, and more particularly to the Sacra mento and San Joaquin Valleys, in the following words.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on globalization in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Jessica Teisch examines the processes by which American water and mining engineers who rose to prominence during and after the California Gold Rush of 1849 exported the United States' growing technical and environmental knowledge and associated social and political institutions. In the frontiers of Australia, South Africa, Hawaii, and Palestine--semiarid regions that shared a need for water to support growing populations and economies--California water engineers applied their expertise in irrigation and mining projects on behalf of foreign governments and business interests. Engineering Nature explores how controlling the vagaries of nature abroad required more than the export of blueprints for dams, canals, or mines; it also entailed the problematic transfer of the new technology's sociopolitical context. Water engineers confronted unforeseen variables in each region as they worked to implement their visions of agrarian settlement and industrial growth, including the role of the market, government institutions, property rights, indigenous peoples, labor, and, not last, the environment. Teisch argues that by examining the successes and failures of various projects as American influence spread, we can see the complex role of globalization at work, often with incredibly disproportionate results.
