To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The railway managers were particularly obstinate and refused to concede the principle of the eight-hour day. At this point the president put the matter up to Congress for its consideration. Congress, disin terested, under law bound to consider only the public good, was forced to act in the public interest. It was not forced to act because of any demands upon congress by the workingmen or by the rail road managers, but because the public interest de manded immediate action.
136 La Follette s Pol...itical Philosophy Congress acted. It passed what is known as the eight-hour day law for men in the employment of railroads in interstate commerce, engaged in moving trains. Every Wisconsin representative present voted for the bill which became a law and averted the strike.
I believe they did right. I believe in the eight- hour day. It is claimed that congress acted "with out due consideration. " Did it? The question of the eight-hour day for skilled employees was not new. Every congressman who was alive to the issues of the day must have been fairly familiar with the arguments pro and con on the subject of the eight-hour day.
