SPEECH Of HON. MARK H. DUNNELL, Of MINNESOTA, In The HOUSE Of REPRESENTATIVES, MARCH 25, 1874. Commerce by Railroads Among the States

Descripción

15, [1] pp. 8-1/2" x 5-7/8" "The growth and magnitude of interstate commerce had but given birth to the crises which secured to its service and protection these decisions. At the adoption of the Constitution, this commerce was as nothing, while now its value annually is thousands of millions. Then it was chiefly between contiguous States, but now it is between every State from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The buyer is in the extreme East and the seller in the extreme West, and every State is shaken by the engine which takes the commodity from the scene of its production to the scene of its consumption. Interstate commerce is to-day substantially the commerce of the Republic. The friends of this asked-for legislation declare the reasons why this commerce should receive congressional regulation." 4 institutional holdings located on OCLC (Library of Michigan, Minnesota Hist. Soc, Minnesota State Univ and Waseda Univ Library). Rare in the trade. Modest wear to wrappers (some light scuffing and rubbing). Previous owner stamp to front wrapper, faint vertical crease.
