Excerpt from An Address on Interstate Railway Traffic, at the Tenth Annual Meeting of the National Board of Trade, December 11, 1879
Mr. Sterne, of New York: Mr. President: Mr. Thurber has quite truly stated that I came here with considerable reluctance. I am a member of the Board of Trade and Transportation, and have been so since its organization but I felt that it Would be regarded to some degree as an intrusion for a man not strictly related to trade, but connected with the legal profession, to present his views at large here, except upon a special occasion, or when a special question, such as this, is under consideration.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the development and regulation of interstate commerce by railroad in the United States. The author, an expert on the subject, argues for reforming legislation in order to protect the public from unfair and arbitrary practices by railroad companies. The book begins by tracing the history of railroad regulation in the United States, showing how the lack of competition and government oversight led to abuses of power by railroad companies. The author then examines specific instances of these abuses, including cases of excessive and discriminatory pricing, unfair competition, and the manipulation of freight rates. The book concludes by arguing for a number of reforms to the current regulatory system, including the creation of a national commission to oversee railroad operations and the implementation of uniform accounting and reporting standards. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the history of railroad regulation in the United States and the need for reform.
