Overview
An Appeal To The People: The Southern Pacific Company And Their Corrupt Judges Of The Supreme Court Of California (1899) is a book written by Horace Wiley Philbrook. The book is a scathing indictment of the Southern Pacific Company and the judges of the Supreme Court of California, whom the author accuses of being corrupt and in the pocket of the powerful railroad company. Philbrook argues that the Southern Pacific Company has used its immense wealth and political influence to manipulate the legal system in its favor, and that the judges of the Supreme Court of California have been complicit in this corruption. The book provides a detailed account of the various legal cases in which the Southern Pacific Company has been involved, and how the company has used its power to influence the outcome of these cases. The author also offers a passionate plea to the people of California to rise up against this corruption and demand justice for all.
