REPORT OF THE GOVERNMENT DIRECTORS
PLEA FOR NOR. FAvoRs-INADILITY OF
THE COMPANY TO REPAY THE GOVERNMENT
WITHIN THE TINE PROPOSITION
FOR SINKING FUND.
WASHINGTON Dec 2i 1876
The government directors Of the Z MON Pacific Rail-
road Company have submitted their report TO the
Secretary OF the Interior, in which they take occasion
10 discuss certain subjects somewhat out OF the line OF
duties cnJoncd upon them by the statute in order, as
they say place before the government more fully
the great national work with which they officially
connected They refer to the agitation Immediately
after the close OF the Mexican war, OF the subject of
more speedy direct communication with our
Pacific possession, aud to the Congressional legisa
tion which, tar back 1Sl9 grew out OF that agiia
tion. and quote from the report OF the joint select
Congressional committee then created, and to the
various schemes then considered uniting that
tended possession to the East.
SOUTHWEST ROUTE.
The plan OF Mr.. Asa Whitney tor connecting the two
extremes OF American territory the Southwest
Pass, was made the subject OF severe tnat
report The declared impraclicabie; too ex-
pensvc; the proposed lay Tor hundreds Of miles
through barren waste; there was fuel on tho line;
water; the claim that travel and freight between
China, Japan India Europe would reach New
York by such route was pronounced hllacious; the
way traffic would amount to nothing, &c, &c. The
directors say that experience has play ed havoc with
this report of very learned committee. AS months
and years went by and Eastern emigration found its
way INTO our Western possessions, developing their
wondrous resources and unfolding heir fabulous
wealth, the rcasoning OF that report came TO be mis
trusted aud dlsrcgarded, and public opinion pro-
nounced strongly IN favor OF the construction Of this
road.
CONSTRUCTION OF THE ROAD,
