The Inter-Oceanic Canal,
TIE PRESIDENTS VIEWS on THE POLICY OF THE
COVERNNENT

GOVERNMENT.
WASHINGTON, March S.-The following
Is the substance Of the Presidents mes
sage to the Senate accOmpaL wing the copies
OF the spondence touching the inter-
oceanic canal:
The policy OF this country is canal un-
der American control. The United States
cannot consent 10 surrender this control TO
any European Power or Powers. Treaties
contrary 10 this view should be amended.
Capital invested by citizens OF other cOun-
tries cannot be protected by the interyen-
ton or those countries without the adop-
ton of measures on this continent which
the United Stltes would deem inadmissible.
III our protection IS relied on, we must have
such control as will enable us to protect
the national interests and the rights OF pri-
vate capital. The canal will be virtually a
part Of our coast line. Our commercial in
terest in it surpasses that OF any other na-
ton, while its relations TO our power and
prosperity are OF paramount concern 10 US.
No other great Power would, under similar
circumstance, fail to assert its rights to full
control over a work so vitality affecting It's
interest and welfare.

is it not well enough for us to look
