About this Item
[2], 60 pp. Original printed front title wrapper, lacking rear wrapper. Disbound. Clean text. Except as noted, Very Good. The Argument is a detailed indictment of the discriminatory and monopolistic practices of the Union Pacific Railroad, in support of a bill to require the Union Pacific to cease its illegal conduct. The history of the establishment of a cross-continent railroad is reviewed, with analysis of the relevant statutes and their judicial interpretation. The Kansas Railway Company argues that, "The Union Pacific Railroad Company, from the year 1870 up to the present time, has operated its road in open and direct contravention of the requirements of the Acts of Congress, and in violation of vested rights of the public, the Government, and the Kansas Pacific Company, to the manifest loss and injury of the public, the Government, and the Kansas Pacific Company." OCLC locates about fifteen copies as of June 2024. Seller Inventory # 40160
