By the statutes of July 1, 1862, and July 2, 1864, which, for most of the purposes of this discussion, may be treated as a single act, Congress created a corporation to be known as the Union Pacific Railroad Company, with authority to construct and maintain a railroad and telegraph from a point on the one hundredth meridian of longitude west from Greenwich to the western boundary of Nevada Territory, upon a route and on the terms specified, there to connect with another road largely endowed by the Government, so as to form a continuous line of railroad from the Missouri River to the navigable waters of the Sacramento River in California, and thereby to unite the railroad system of the Eastern States with that of California, strengthen the bonds of union between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, develop the immense resources of the great central portion of the North American continent, and create a new route for commerce from the Atlantic and Europe to the Pacific and Asia. By an act passed July 3, 1866, tho company was authorized to locate and construct its road from Omaha, in Nebraska, without reference to the original initial point at the one hundredth meridian. To aid in accomplishing these vast results, the corporation was clothed by the Government with a proportionally vast endowment. The right of way through the public land, the Government undertaking to remove all Indian titles, for a space of two hundred feet in width on each side of its entire route; the right of eminent domain to appropriate necessary private land space for depots, turnouts, &c.; public lands to the amount of ten alternate sections per mile within the limits of twenty miles on each side of said road, were given to this corporation.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the Crà dit Mobilier of America, an influential corporation founded in the late 1800s that was closely tied with the construction of the Union Pacific Railroad. The author analyzes the close connections between those managing the Credit Mobilier and the Union Pacific Railroad and the way in which these connections allowed the Crà dit Mobilier to engage in corrupt, unethical practices. Due to the Crà dit Mobilier's political influence, they used their power to exploit the government for personal gain. Through a meticulous examination of records, the author unearths the Crà dit Mobilier's self-dealing, stock manipulation, and illegal methods of profiting from government contracts. This book provides critical insights into the corrupting influence of corporate power and the ways in which government oversight can be subverted. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330132302_0
