the power to erect gates and collect as
much toll as was necessary to keep it in
repair but his whole argument went to
prove that Congress did not possess the
very power which his amendment as
sumed and proposed to the States. The
gentleman's amendment, and his speech
therefore, were at variance with each
other, and would perhaps both perish in
the conflict. Certainly, both could not
survive-one or the other must fall.
The gentleman, proceeding in his
argument, had assumed premises which
nobody would admit, and then. with an
air Of great triumph, he drew con-
illusions which even his own premises
would not support. He takes for
granted that this government, with all
It's mail, military. and commercial
powers, has no more right to make
road to carry these powers into effect,
through State, than any individual
possessing none of these powers would
have. Thus, having assumed what was
utterly inadmissible, he triumphantly
inquiries whether an individual, having
obtained leave to make road through
another's land, could put up gates and
exact toll? The gentleman says, surely
not. But he said, surely yes, unless
expressly prohibited by the contracts
Suppose, by permission, build a mill,

mans estate, and construct a bridge
and turnpike road to get to it, have not

bridge as the mill? Most undoubtedly;
so that the gentleman's premises and
his conclusions were alike fallacious and
unsound. This position had been taken
by both the gentlemen from Virginia
(Mr. Barbour and Mr.. Archer to
whom he would make the same reply.
A most extraordinary argument had
been advanced against military roads;
1.-THE public enemy may get possession
of them in war" Was it possible that
an American statesman could at this
time Of day, urge such an argument?
1t might be addressed to set of timid
savages, secure in the midst of the
wilderness. The enemy get possession
of our roads, and therefore not make
them! Such cowardly arguments would

considered the right to construct roads
and canals as belonging to the COM
mercial power of all governments.
There were great arteries of com
munlcation between distant divisions of
this extensive empire, passing through
many States or bordering upon them,
which the State never could and never
would make These works were
emphatically national, and ought to be
accomplished by national means.
He instanced the road now under
construction passed through Mary
land, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, yet
neither of these States would have
given dollar to make it. 1t passed
mostly through mountainous and I'M
habited regions. He adverted to the
Potomac, Ohio, and Mississippi rivers.
Important as these were the internal
concerns of none-they were mere
boundaries to which the States would
give nothing, while they had so many
objects exclusively internal requiring
all their means. For these reasons he
was utterly opposed to the project of
dividing the surplus revenue of the
general government among the several
States; this would be to surrender the
national means which the people had
confided to this purpose to mere local
and sectional objects, while those truly
national would remain forever unprovid-
ed for. He did not claim for this gov
eminent the power to make roads and
canals for all purposes. The powers of
this government and of the States were
distinct and well defined. To the
national government belonged under the
constitution, the power of making
national roads and canals for national
purposes. To States belonged the
power of providing for State and local
objects. The roads and canals project
ed and executed by the States and
private companies were often highly
important in a national point of view;
and to such in his opinion, this govern
ment ought always to offer aid in a
proportion corresponding with the in
terest the nation had in their accomplish
ment. When individuals were willing
to go before and invest millions of their

defense. The enemy it might be said
with equal propriety, may get our ships,
our forts. our cannon. our soldiers, and
therefore we ought not to provide them.
What would the brave freemen of this
country say to the men who would deny
them roads to travel on lest the enemy
might take them from US in war? They
would reply, with spartan magnanimity.

sort, which had little to do with the
subject. On this point, the only sound
and practical rule was, that this govern
ment had right to assume such juris-
diction over their roads as was neces-
sary for their preservation and repair
by such means as should be deemed
most eXpedlent, leaving everything be-
yond that to the States. Thus far the
constitution declared the legislation OF
Congress to be the supreme law of the
land, anything in the constitution and
laws of any State to the contrary not
with standing" This left to the laws
of the States, the right to punish all
offenses and other acts committed upon
the road in the same manner as though
they had occurred in any other part of
their territory Such had been the
uniform practice of the government in
executing all its powers up to the
present time, and no complaint had

Mr.. Stewart said he would now pro-
/ coed to answer. as briefly as possible,
some leading arguments urged by gen
tlemen in opposition to the bill under
consideration. His colleague (Mr.
Buchanan,) had said that this bill pro-
posed greater stretch of power than
the sedition law. This was an argu-
ment ''ad captandum vulgus" He
would not do his colleague the injustice
to suppose that he was so ignorant of
the constitution of his country as
seriously to address such an argument
to the understanding of this house. The
bill under consideration was necessary
to carry into effect the express power
of transporting the mail. What power
of this government was the sedltion law
intended to carry INTO effect None? 1t
was, therefore, not only clearly uncon-
stitutional on this ground, but it went
directly to abridge the freedom of the
press, and, of course, was a plain and
palpable violation of that provision in
the constitution, which declares that
Congress shall make no law abridging
the freedom of speech or of the press. "
Now, if his colleague could show any
provision in the constitution in the
slightest degree lmpugning the right of
Congress to pass this bill, then he might
have some excuse for offering such an
argument, otherwise he had none. The
gentleman had, in very labored effort,
endeavored to prove that this govern
ment had no kind of jurisdiction or
control whatever over this road Yet
his own amendment recognized the
existence of the very power which
he denies, By his amendment he
proposed what? That this government
shall cede the roads to the States with
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1913-10-23

Buchanan, afterwards President, offered
an amendment declaring that the Gov
eminent had no constitutional authority
to erect toll gates and collect toll for the
repair of the road and therefore offered
to turn the road back to the States.
The amendment was discussed for
several sessions and on the 9th of
January, 1929, the Honorable Andrew
Stewart, of Pennsylvania, in a vigorous
speech on the floor of Congress, repealed
the proposition that the general govern
ment was lacking in power and authority
to make and preserve the road, from
which the following extracts are taken
Mr.. Stewart expressed his regret
that gentlemen had deemed this fit
occasion to draw into discussion all the
topics connected with the general power
over the subject of internal improve
ments. If repeated decisions, and the
uniform practice of the government
could settle any question, this, he
thought, ought to be regarded as
settled. The foundation of this road
(the National or Cumberland) was laid
by report made by Mr.. Giles, the
present governor of Virginia, in 1902,
and was sanctioned the next session by
similar report, made by another
distinguished Virginian MIR. Randolph
now member of this house-it was the
offspring of Virginia, and he hoped she
would not now abandon it as illegitimate.
Commenced under the administration of
Mr.. Jefferson, it had been sanctioned
and prosecuted by every president, and
by almost every Congress, for more
than quarter of century.
After conclusivelY showing that the
national government has authority to
construct and maintain national roads,
Mr.. Stewart went on to say From this
grant Congress derived exactly the same
power to make roads and canals that
it did sea-walls, lighthouses, buoys,
beacons, ETC., along the seaboard. If
the power existed over the one it exist
ed over the other in every point of view;
the cases were precisely parallel; 1t was
impossible to draw distinction between
them. This power was essential to
every government-there was no gov
eminent under the sun without it. All

Mr. Brantley thinks the bill an uu

this view Congressmen Hardwick and
