“Altogether Unproductive of Profit”: A History of the First Prince Edward Island Steam Navigation Company
Bibliographic record
Abstract
La Prince Edward Island Steam Navigation Company a été créée afin d’assurer des communications fiables et en temps opportun entre les colonies du détroit de Northumberland, dans le sud du golfe du Saint-Laurent. Fondée en 1842, la société bénéficiait d’un vaste soutien communautaire de la part des constructeurs de navires et des marchands et, plus important encore, de la participation du gouvernement de la colonie en tant que propriétaire. Bien que la participation directe du gouvernement colonial ait fourni le capital nécessaire à l’entreprise, les attentes en matière de service aux ports non rentables ont entravé la capacité de la société de gérer ses opérations et ont contribué à son échec après cinq ans. Malgré son quasi-monopole sur le service de navigationà vapeur dans la région, la société était vouée à l’échec en raison de la capacité excédentaire et des coûts d’exploitation élevés.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
