Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railway Corporations as Public Servants This work contains the substance of a course of lectures delivered in May, 1907, at the Boston University School of Law. It is, to some extent, supplementary to a previous work on "Restrictive Railway Legislation," as it describes the development of such legislation since the passage of the Act to Regulate Interstate Commerce.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railway Regulation: State and Interstate To meet and wisely discharge the responsibility of regulating commerce, state and interstate, to bring railways back and hold them to their legitimate business as common carriers, is the most important work in the government of this republic for this generation of man. If the great railway corporations of the country are using their unlimited power without abusing it, if they are transporting the commerce of the country at reasonable rates, with fairness to the general public, with a just regard to the rights of individuals, and without favoritism to places and persons, then they might justly regard government control and regulation as "unnecessary and meddlesome interference." If, however, the public is suffering serious wrong, if there are far-reaching abuses in the transportation of its commerce, if the railway companies are not only carrying the commerce of the country but controlling the commerce of the country, determining where it shall be massed, where the markets shall be located, and their control; if they are discriminating in favor of the large shipper, creating and fostering industrial and commercial monopoly, then there rests upon the several state legislatures and upon congress an obligation to act, and to act at once, with all the determination and patriotism commensurate with the duty to preserve government itself. Capital and labor, wherever employed in the creation of wealth, - whether in mining, or in manufacturing, or in agriculture, - in short, material production, in every field of human activity, is absolutely dependent upon transportation.

Download or read book The Proposed Radical Railway Legislation written by H. T. Newcomb and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Proposed Radical Railway Legislation: An Address Delivered Before the Faculty and Students of the University of Missouri, October 20, 1905 That there should be favoritism in the charges for rail way service is intolerable; it is, also, as contrary to the law of the land as that there shall be murder or theft. But social order is still interrupted by occasional larcenies and malicious homicides, and there is no evidence that the law against rebates is more frequently violated than those which forbid other offenses. Yet if any one can suggest a modification of the present law that will more effectually protect the public against the direct or indirect preferment of one shipper over another, through rebates or other con cessions from the published schedules of charges, the sug gestion will become, promptly and without opposition from any railway officer, a part of the Federal statute law. Public antipathy to rebates ought not, however, to be used to further the enactment of legislation having no bear ing upon that subject. To confer rate-making power upon the Interstate Commerce Commission could in no way hinder the payment of rebates; it would, on the contrary, make illegal concessions from the published schedules the only means of approximating that elasticity in railway charges which is essential to the upbuilding of industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Transport by Railway The author apprehends that such a division of the Law of Railways coincides with a true distinction in subject - matter, and calls for no elaborate justification here, notwithstanding that here and there the line of demarcation is hard to trace, and that occasionally in the interests of lucidity and completeness it is necessary to ignore it. Nor is it necessary to justify the treatment in this work of the common law of carriage in as great detail as the statutory law peculiar to railways. For the former is still at least of equal importance, and its existence is pre - supposed in every provision of the latter.

Download or read book A Treatise on Street Railway Accident Law Classic Reprint written by Ellery H. Clark and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Street Railway Accident Law The recent development of our American street railway system has been little short of marvelous. Today our country is covered with hundreds and thousands of miles of track, designed for the use of horse, electric, and cable cars, dummy lines, and elevated trains. Great as have been the advantages attending the extension of the system, corresponding defects have not been lacking, and the appalling number of street railway accidents, instead of growing less year by year, as the public becomes more and more familiar with the dangers attending the operation of street cars, seems, on the contrary, to be steadily increasing. It is perhaps hardly necessary to add that these accidents are a most prolific source of litigation. Believing that the tendency of the present day is towards specialization and concentration, the author, in 1902, published a book on the Street Railway Accident Law of Massachusetts. The kind reception accorded this work by the bench and bar has led to the production of the present volume, dealing with the street railway accident law of the entire country. The author has endeavored to make thoroughness and system his watchwords. Every volume of the United States and state reports has been carefully searched, and the eases thus collected have been examined and classified with the most painstaking thoroughness.
