Sereno Stansbury Pratt expresses appreciation for W. C. Brown’s warm words regarding an editorial in the Wall Street Journal entitled “Railroads Need Encouragement.” Pratt believes that the movement for corporation reform has accomplished much good, but has awakened hostility towards corporations and wealth. In this matter, Pratt believes the Wall Street Journal stands “in the middle ground” with Brown, which is where the solution to the problem will be found.
