Pennsylvania Canal System Promotes State Prosperity
The committee reports that rapid canal and railroad expansion is essential for Pennsylvania. It outlines planned projects from Philadelphia to Ohio, Juniata, Bald Eagle, and Lake Erie, plus branches to Susquehanna and Delaware. The measure proposes a 4,200,050 dollar appropriation and calls for prudent oversight to finish the main Delaware to Ohio route while accommodating all districts.
