THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

1t is said that with the reassembling
OF Congress it is quite probable that
legislation respecting the Nicaragua
canal will be introduced. The canal
will unquestionably be great thing for
this country when built. but before the
Government takes any action in the
matter thorough survey OF the route
should be made in accordance with the
recommendations of the Commission OF
Engineers last year. 1t will be mis-
take for this Government to guarantee
the bonds of the enterprise In it's pres
ent shape.
The canal should be built. and no
doubt will be. but before we undertake
such n job let's form some idea of the
cost. ana the only way this can be as
certained is by proper survey OF the
route
