Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Magnate or the People: Or Lowest Instead of Highest Railroad Rates in the World Everywhere in current publications writers dilate on the phenomenal progress of the German nation. Mr. Abram W. Harris, President of the Northwestern University, upon his return recently from an extended tour of Europe, said: "The Germans are applying the methods of the laboratory to business problems. The Germans are theorists and they call in the schoolmaster. By that I mean they apply educational methods of investigation and analysis to practical affairs." Here we get the key to the secret of Germany´s wonderful social, and industrial progress and prosperity, and the secret of her conquest of the markets of the world. But a new era is also dawning with us. The reign of the empiric, the reign of that "bane of our political life," - the "practical man," is drawing to a close. The schoolmaster, the closet thinker, is about to have his inning. The pretension, duplicity, effrontery and sham that have enthroned "predatory wealth" upon the necks of the people have seen their day. The schoolmaster, the theorist, the agitator, the thinker have come to disturb the revels of the Belshazzars of "Big Business." The "Mene, Mene Tekel Upharsin" on the wall of monopoly, of special privilege and of "beefy bullies drunk with power," needs no Daniel to decipher it. Out of the wilderness of political corruption, industrial depression and serfdom, out of the want, misery, and suffering into which blind and corrupt leaders have lead a blind and trusting people, will this new Moses, the schoolmaster and thinker, guide the people towards a Canaan of abundance and prosperity. This is the Moses, who, clothed in the invincible armor of the divine "I will be with thee," will bear God´s message to the Pharaohs of plunder, demanding for the people their birthright. To this Moses, bringing from the Sinai of an awakening conscience and perception, the God-graven tables of nature´s laws and principles, will the people turn. For only in our recognition of these laws and principles, and in our adherence thereto, can we solve the problems that confront us. In the perception of a few basic laws and principles lies the solution of our railroad problem and the solution of every other problem.
