Excerpt from Problems in Railway Regulation The purpose of this work is to follow the course of railway regulation in this country to the present time, to consider the several ways in which our railway system has affected the general welfare, and to offer some suggestions as to its future regulation, if that system is to be viewed as an organic factor in the further exploitation of our natural resources and in the evolution of our characteristic social order. Its scope includes such a description of past conditions as seems necessary to trace to their origin the ills complained of, and to exhibit the effects of the attempts to cure them by government regulation. These intermediate conditions have been treated with greater particularity in previous works on "Restrictive Railway Legislation" and on "Railway Corporations as Public Servants, " of which this work is in that sense a continuation.
