The Senate Canal Fight and the People's Demands
The issue of an isthmian canal dominates national debate as the Senate faces pressure from Democrats and Republicans to pass enabling legislation. The piece argues the public will and money support a canal owned by the United States, warns against delays by lobbyists tied to transcontinental railways, and calls for decisive action and transparency from Congress. It also critiques the House’s procedural handling, praises fair reporting by The Constitution in Rome, and surveys political outlooks in New York and broader eastern states.
