Speech by Mr. Hayne in Congress on public lands policy
Senator Hayne rebukes Mr. Webster and defends western interests against eastern and northern politics. He argues public lands should fund new states and national growth rather than serve as a perpetual treasury. He cites Nathan Dane and the Hartford Convention to challenge Massachusetts claims and defends southern restraint on internal improvements.
