The Octopus: A History of the Construction, Conspiracies, Extortions, Robberies, and Villainous Acts of the Central Pacific, Southern Pacific of ... Other Subsidized Railroads (Classic Reprint)
Railroad History. The author of this work is familiar with railroad history, having originated and established the first railway paper in the United States The American Railway Times, Boston, 1849. The present publication is of the people, for the people, and by one of the people. A ready reference, a valuable adjunct to every mans library and worthy of preservation. It is confidently believed that this Expose will become a potent factor in the reforms advocated by the people, purify politics, suppress monopolies and trusts and inaugurate an epoch of industrial prosperity under judicious laws and honest and wise administration. The preparation of this publication was commenced several months ago; first, as a personal matter prompted by a knowledge of the swindle perpetrated by theD irectors of the Central Pacific andS outhern Pacific Railroads in refusing to account for, and pay the writer the dividends and profits accruing on his stock, and interest and rights in the sale and disposition of his share in the railroad lands. Second, to expose and publish to the people of this Coast in particular, and the country and world at large, their nefarious acts in the management of their trust in the interests of stockholders and the government.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
