On Cranes As Labor-Saving Machines
As a well-constructed crane, or other similar power machine requiring one man to drive it, will not only do as much work as can be done by ten men performing similar work by manual power, but in one-tenth of the time they would require, it seems singular that railroad and waterside depots should so rarely be laid out with a view to the immediate or ultimate employment of labor-saving machines of this kind. The result of this is, that when the pressure of increasing traffic comes, as it nearly always does, expedients have to be resorted to and expense incurred, both of which might have been avoided if proper provision had been made in the first instance.
