This book is a collection of documents related to California Governor George Stonemanâs successful campaign to pass legislation regulating railroad corporations in 1884. At the time, railroad corporations in California had successfully resisted paying taxes for four years by exploiting loopholes in the tax laws and making deals with local officials. The author provides the full text of Stonemanâs messages to the Legislature, along with related petitions, testimony, and proposed laws. Through these records, the reader can trace the growing frustration and determination of the people of California and their elected representatives to end the railroads' defiance of state law.
