Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Union Pacific Railway: A Study in Railway Politics, History, and Economics The work of the student of history has heretofore been confined almost wholly to the political, religious and liter ary development of peoples; their industrial development has been subjected to inexcusable neglect. Yet the pillars of the dominance of the anglo-saxon race are its superior industrial attributes. What a people accomplishes industrially and how it accomplishes it. Go far to determine how it will be governed, what it will think and feel, and what it will write. The freedom of the individual that was the product of the eighteenth century has been more emphatically man ifested in the field of industry than in any other field of human activity. The growth of constitutional government in England is easily traced to the want of harmony be tween the Old political status and the newly developed indus trial status of English society. The increasing tendency to submit international disputes to arbitration is attributable not so much to a more enlightened repugnance to warfare as to the mere human fear of destruction of wealth and interfer ence with industries occasioned by it. The Annapolis Con vention had its origin in the desire of the American states TO consider how far a uniform system in their commer Cial relations might be necessary to their common inter ests. The slavery question was largely an industrial ques tion, and its solution was industrial, not political or moral.
