Wisconsin Leader Urges Separate Independent Rail Grants
The speaker argues for two independent railroad routes from Madison or Columbus to Lake Superior and from Fond du Lac north to the state line. He warns against one consolidated system and urges selling land to settlers, distributing proceeds to citizens, and ensuring state benefits while fighting slavery expansion and Missouri aggression. He stresses rapid development and warns of political cliques and speculative dangers.
