Fragmented 19th century convention debate on internal improvements
A long record from a Wisconsin territorial convention details amendments on internal improvements, land grants, and representation. Debates focus on canal lands pricing, repayment to the United States, and whether to alter senatorial and representative apportionment to favor counties like Waukesha and Washington. The session covers motions, amendments, and committee reports amid tense votes and procedural rulings.
