The Magnate Or The People: Or Lowest Instead Of Highest Railroad Rates In The World is a book written by John Martin Johnson and published in 1913. The book focuses on the issue of railroad rates in the United States and argues that the rates charged by railroad companies are too high and unfair to the American people. Johnson suggests that the government should intervene and regulate the rates to ensure that they are fair and reasonable.The book is divided into two parts: the first part focuses on the history of railroad rates in the United States and the second part presents Johnson?s proposed solutions to the problem. In the first part, Johnson provides a detailed account of the development of the railroad industry in the United States and how it has led to the current situation where railroad rates are controlled by a small group of powerful magnates.In the second part, Johnson proposes several solutions to the problem of high railroad rates. He suggests that the government should establish a regulatory body to oversee the rates charged by railroad companies and ensure that they are fair and reasonable. He also proposes that the government should take over the ownership of the railroads and run them as a public utility.Overall, The Magnate Or The People: Or Lowest Instead Of Highest Railroad Rates In The World is a thought-provoking book that highlights the need for government intervention in regulating the rates charged by railroad companies. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the railroad industry in the United States and the challenges it has faced in providing affordable transportation services to the American people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
