"You mustn't forget about that trip over the Yellowhead Pass, where your new railroad's going now, Uncle Dick," said Jesse, as they turned to walk again up the rough beach toward the mooring-place of the steamer. "Don't be in too big a hurry, Jesse," returned his relative. "You've got a whole year of studying ahead of you, between now and then. We'll take it under advisement."
A powerful lobby worked insistently upon Congress, first to prevent action and later, when action was seen to be inevitable, to weaken the legislation wherever possible. The railroad's campaign of popular education, however, helped to convince the popular mind that new laws were needed, and came coincidently with the disclosures of corporate mismanagement and wrong-doing.
One of the tents had just been raised, though the pitching of it had not yet been thoroughly done. "What crowd is that?" Reade asked. "Who is at the head of it?" "I see one man there the only man in good clothes who looks like Jim Duff," replied the superintendent, using his field glasses. "The gambler?" asked Tom sharply. "The same." "He's pitching his tent on the railroad's dirt, isn't he!"
Then a railroad's first condition of existence is a large circulation, which implies a still larger production and a vast amount of exchanges. But production, circulation, and exchange are not self-creative things; again, the various kinds of labor are not developed in isolation and independently of each other: their progress is necessarily connected, solidary, proportional.
Meader, although he had not been able to work since his release from the hospital, had been able to talk, and the interest taken in the case by the average neglected citizen in Putnam proved that the weekly newspaper is not the only disseminator of news.

Tom went on to sketch briefly the situation of the Hendrickton & Pas Alos Railroad as brought to the attention of the Swifts by the railroad's president. First of all his two listeners were deeply interested in the proposition Mr. Richard Bartholomew had made the inventors.

There was every sort of emotion in the echo of the word as the saloon-keeper glanced vengefully across at a window through which the sun was pouring. "Guess we don't grow ice around these parts, 'cep' when we don't need it, an' I don't guess the railroad's discovered they hatched Orrville out yet. We got lager in soak, an' lager by the keg, down in a cool celler.

Lyman, because of his position as Commissioner, might be cognisant of the Railroad's plans, and, at the same time, could give sound legal advice as to what was to be done should the new rumour prove true.
"About the same as usual," said the boy, "Grandpap's poorly. The war's over just now folks 'r' busy makin' money. Uncle Arch's still takin' up options. The railroad's comin' up the river" the lad's face darkened "an' land's sellin' fer three times as much as you sold me out fer." Steve's face darkened too, but he was silent.
