Excerpt from Railway Mail Service: A Comparative Study of Railway Rates and Service
The articles brought together to form this volume have been published from time to time during the past three years, most of them appearing in the Journal of Political Economy. Their publication now in more con venient form is due to the continued demand for them. Although nominally disconnected I believe they will not be found to be wholly wanting in continuity. The occasion that called them forth has passed but I hope they contain sufficient material of more than ephemeral value to be worthy of the more permanent form in which they now appear.
NO alteration of any importance has been made in the text, but some new matter has been added. It is believed the tables in the appendix contain the most useful of the voluminous statistical matter prepared for the Joint Congressional Commission on Postal Afiairs created by the act of Congress approved June 13, 1898. In reprinting these statistics I assume no responsibility for their accuracy.
