Roosevelt visit and Canal bill delay noted in 1902 South Carolina scene
The Messenger reports on April 22, 1902, noting South Carolina’s warm reception for Theodore Roosevelt despite no electoral votes, while the Senate Republican steering committee delays the Nicaragua Canal bill by tying it to the Philippine and Chinese bills. Memphis plans a stunt to express opinion on Schley sentiment, and comments critique figures like Hanna and Rhodes. Florida sets a quick murder execution, New York Chamber of Commerce invites the Prince of Wales, and other era political jabs underline a tense election climate.
