Indiana Democrats Oppose Canal Bond Liability in New Amendment
The Indiana General Assembly passed a constitutional amendment prohibiting the state from assuming debt for the Wabash and Erie Canal bonds. It bars the legislature from recognizing canal liability and seeks to place the issue beyond legislative control, as Democrats claim to shield the public from swindling and Radical rule. The measure aligns with Democratic return to power and calls for further action on Fifteenth Amendment ratification.
