7HE McAaaeNsA cexN

Though six yeaEs win be required for
its construction, at an estimated outlay
Of 3125.D boo ZOO. public sentiment was never
more pronounced in favor Of the Nica-
raguaa, canal than 1t Is today. The dis
tance from ocean to ocean at the canal
location is 1894 miles. the natural water
way, being 142 miles and the proposed
ditch q. The canal when constructed
will be 800 feet wide and 30 feet deep, re-
quiring the removal of 152. 7S1, 270 cubic
yards of earth. The Maritime Canal
9ocnpany has already expended g$A1ss.42S
on work Incidental to the 4reatJ Anter-
prise.
Aside from the natural opposition
emanat1ns from trans-contipentsh rail
way lines, public sentiment is over
whelmingly i'm favor of the Project, and
it is a question of time only when. it
will link the two oceans in a commercial
affinity Of infinite Importance to the
world. With the growth of : Oriental
business. foreshadowed by the acquire
ment of Hawaii and the Philippines, the
Nicaraguan canal becomes a practical
necessity in the adjustment Of the COM
mercial affairs of the nation.
The remarkable trip made by the Ore
gon when it sped like an albatross from
the Pacific to the Atlantic, by rounding
the horn" just as Magellan did 800 years
ago when he discovered the Philippine
islands. was an object lesson to, the
world. In these days of intense activi-
ties. both in war and in peace, that long
trip over the trackless waste OF waters
might have involved momentous conse-
Quences to a nation. 1t reminded the
progressive people of the age that an
~inter-oceanic canal belongs to the era of
human advancement. and that to ave
time is to broaden enterprise as we'll as
to lengthen life. From both a military
and commercial standpoint the ana is
a necessity. and the day will speedily
dawn when the waters Of the two great
oceans will mingle together in the heart
of two continents and change the geog-
raphy Of the world.
