Excerpt from The Historical Evolution of the Principle of Liability in the Illinois Corporation: Thesis

With the advent of railroads telegraphs, telephones, etc the corporation as a form of business organization began to be adopted generally, until at the present time the bulk of our business is conducted through this form of organization. To quote from an article by Professor Maurice H. Robinson of the University of Illinois, contributed to the Yale Review: Former ly nearly all manufacturing was done by the individual entre preneur, later by the partnership, now by the corporation; of the total production in the year 1900, nearly eight thousand millions in dollars, or almost 60 per cent of the total output, was the work of the corporation. Out of over five hundred thousand independent establishments in the United States, forty thousand in round numbers were in corporate form. The corpor ations were 12 per cent in numbers and produced per cent of the output. The partnerships were per cent of the total number of establishments, producing per cent of the total production. Individuals owned per cent of the number of establishments and produced only per cent of the total amount of production. In certain lines the progress of the cor poration has been particularly rapid, namely, in the manufacture of iron and steel, agricultural implements, coke, gas, electrical apparatus, manufactured ice, rubber goods, photographic goods.
