Isthmian Canal.
By the act of June %, 1902, the con-
gress authorized the president to enter
into treaty with Colombia for the
building of the canal across the 18TH
mus of Panama, it being provided that
in the event of failure to secure such
treaty after the lapse of a reasonable
time recourse should be had to build
ing a canal through Nicaragua. 1t has
not been necessary to consider this al
tentative, as / am enabled to lay be-
fore the senate a treaty providing for
the building of the canal across the
isthmus of Panama. This was the
route which commended itself to the
deliberate judgment of the congress,
and we can now acquire by treaty the
right to construct the canal over this
route. The question now. therefore. is
not by which route the isthmian canal
shall be built, for that question has
been definitely and irrevocably decid-
ed. The question is simply whether or
not we shall have an isthmian canal
When the congress directed that we
should take the Panama route under
treaty with Colombia the essence of
the condition. of course. referred not
! to the government which controlled
that route. but to the route itself: TO the
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1903-12-14


Every effort has been made by the
government of the United States to per-
suade Colombia to follow a course
which was essentially not only to our
interests and to the interests of the
world. but to the interests of Colon
bia itself. These efforts have failed,
and Colombia, by her persistence in re-
pulsing the advances that have been
made, has forced US for the sake of
our own honor and of the interest and
well being, not merely of our own peo-
pie, but of the people of the isthmus of
Panama and the people of the civilized
countries of the world, to take decisive
steps to bring to an end condition of
affairs which had become intolerable.
The new republic of Panama immedi-
ately offered to negotiate a treaty with
US. This treaty | herewith submit.
By it our interests are better safeguard
ed than in the treaty with Colombia
which was ratified by the senate at its
last session. 1t is better in its terms
than the treaties offered to US by the
republics of Nicaragua and Costa Rica.
At last the right to begin this great
undertak king is made available. Pan
anna has done her part. All that re-
mains is for the American congress TO
do its part, and forthwith this republic
will enter upon the execution of a
project colossal in its size and of well
nigh incalculable possibilities for the
good of this country and the nations of
mankind.
