A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

By earlier association and education, and later by professional environment and interest, the author inclined strongly to ultraconservatism. He sternly rejected all suggestions that there could exist in this country such industrial combinations as could not be controlled by competition, or such monopolies in transportation as could not be controlled by State regulation. He chose to be satisfied with existing economic conditions and tendencies, and accepted as practical only such changes as appeared to evolve automatically in the progress of civilization. And yet, being of an investigating turn of mind and a student of economics and politics, he began an earnest study of the most serious problems of the time, as well as of the remedies and palliatives proposed. As a result, he is finally convinced (1) that the dangers to republican institutions suggested by the radicals are real and imminent; and (2) that far-reaching, or what may be termed radical, remedies are necessary to arrest evil tendencies and restore to the people equality of opportunity. A restoration of the property values of which the general public have been unjustly deprived cannot be brought about in the present generation. That must be left to the great leveler, time. The results of the authors examination of concurrent events and accessible facts to prove the premises, and his arguments in advocacy of adequate remedies are set forth in the following pages.

Présentation de l'éditeur

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.
