The Shelf2Life Trains & Railroads Collection provides a unique opportunity for researchers and railroad enthusiasts to easily access and explore pre-1923 titles focusing on the history, culture and experience of railroading. From the revolution of the steam engine to the thrill of early travel by rail, railroads opened up new opportunities for commerce, American westward expansion and travel. These books provide a unique view of the impact of this type of transportation on our urban and rural societies and cultures, while allowing the reader to share the experience of early railroading in a new and unique way. The Trains & Railroads Collection offers a valuable perspective on this important and fascinating aspect of modern industrialization.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

In writiiig this book, I have aimed to present a complete theory of transportation rates and their regulation, to illustrate this theory with a sufficient number of concrete cases arising in actual regulation to make the reader or student feel that the presentation is thoroughly practical, and, throughout, to keep before the reader a realization of the relation of rate making to trade, testing each rate structure or regulation by its probable effect in securing or failing to secure the maximum of really profitable commerce and the largest economic well-being of the community. Whether a given level of rates is so high that, like tariff restrictions, it will prevent commerce which ought to take place, or whether it is so low (less than cost) that, like most bounties, it will encourage commerce that ought not to take place, or whether rates are discriminatory in such a way as to affect commerce injuriously, are the questions kept constantly in view. As a protective tariff may prevent profitable trade, so may monopolistic transportation rates. As the protective policy may, perhaps, benefit persons in one section of a country at the expense of those in another section, so discriminating transportation rates may arbitrarily build up one city and ruin another. As tariff protection may divert a countrys industry out of its most profitable channels, so may discriminating railroad rates arbitrarily encourage one industry in a given territory or section and discourage another. As tariff barriers may further the development of private monopoly, so may discrimination in r.:|-z.. (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)
