Excerpt from Fair Play: A Clean Honest Statement of the Railroad and Transportation Situation
I hold no brief from the railroads to plead their cause, but my close association for many years with railroads and railroad officials have placed me in a position to know the inner working much better, more truthfully and positively more honestly than the muck-raker, the muck-writer and the yellow press, the unprincipled politician and the selfish shipper.
Therefore all I ask for the contents of this book is fair consideration and for the book itself, fair play.
