Book Description
Excerpt from Centennial Guide to Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington: With Description of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Not content with the mischief that they had already done the enterprise, they appealed to the people with all the venom and bitterness of confirmed monomaniacs, through falsely presenting the statistics of other exhibitions of a similar character, which they claimed had been, without a single exception, a financial failure and a ruinous project, though under the management of more matured and wealthier governments, which failure proved conclusively that our Utopian scheme must inevitably end likewise. Again, they endeavored to deaden the undertaking by creating dissension among the originators and dissatisfaction among the rival cities - who were anxious for the honor, by claiming advantages for each in derogation of the others - thus pitting city against city, clogging the wheels and stopping the machinery; but by persevering efforts and convincing arguments on the part of the active movers in the undertaking, and by the power of a mighty press, the grumblings of the dissatisfied few soon ceased, and their prejudiced fulminations no longer harassed the proceedings of the Commissioners, who were thus enabled to pursue their course in harmony and peace, supported by the popular voice, and encouraged by the notice taken of their efforts by foreign nations, who seemed to be affected as enthusiastically as onr own people over the Exhibition is embryo. The Commissioners appointed, tlie work commenced in earnest. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
