My tho said act tho President wan authorized to .serine for the United States t he property of the Panama Canal Company and tho perpetual control of a strip 'J miles wide scroti) ' the isthmus of Panama It was further j provided that "should the Prosident ho j unable to obaln (or the United States a ktatisfactory title to the property of,' tho Now Panama Canal Company and ' the control of tho necossary territory of tho republic of Colombia ? ? with : in a reasonable tlmo and upon reason- ! able terms, then the President should j endeavor to provide for a canal by the : Nicaragua rout6."The language quoted : defines with oxactnew and precision what wun to bo dotie, and whut as a ' ?natter of fact lias liccn done. Tho ! President was authorized to ko to tho i Nicaragua route only If within a tea ' aonable time lie could not obtain "con j ' ' ?l "f necessary territory of the llepnblic of Colombia." This control { has now been obtained; the provision ? of the act has boon compiled with; It, s no longer possible under existing legislation to go to the Nicaragua route as an alternative. I his act marked the climax of the effort on the part of the United States to secure. MO far us legislation was; concerned, an interocoanic canal ! across the Isthmus. The effort to se- ' < lire a treaty for this purpose with one j of the Central American republics did t not stand on the same footing with tho' effort to secure a treaty under any or-! dmary conditions. The proper position ! for the I n>t oil States to assume In re I'ercnce to this canal, A^d therefore to' the governments of the Isthmus, had ' been ? learlv set forth by Secretary , Cass in lar.s. in m v Annual Message I have already quoted what Secretary j | . asg tjaul; but I repeat t h <? quotation hero. because Hie principle It states |* ] fundamental : While the rights of sovereignty of! the states occii|>ying this region iCen- ' tral America) should always be re spected. we shall expect that these right-, ? lie exercised in a spirit befitting the occasion and the wants and cir ciunstuuccs that have arisen. Sover eignly has Its duties us well au its tights, and none of these local govern incuts, even if administered with more regard to the just demands of other Millions than they have been, would be permitted, in a splilt of Eastern Isolation, to close the gates of inter course on the real highways of the world, and justify the act by the pre tensii.n hat these avenues of trade and travel belong to theni and that they choose to shut them, or, what is al most equivalent, to encumber them with such unjust relations as would prevent their general use." , ' 'l0 principle thus enunciated by Secretary Cass was sound then and is t sound now. The United States has taken the position that no other Gov ernment Is to build the canal. In 1889 uhe? France proposed to come to the aid of Hie French Panama Company y Kuaranteelng their bonds, the Sen- ' ntc r*f the United States in executive ' session, with only some threo votes ? dissenting, passed a resolution as fol- ! lows: I Ihat the Government of the United' ' W!|l look wltli serious concorn ! and disapproval upon any connection ! of any hu rope an government with tho construction or coqtrol of any ship! canal across the Isthmus of Darien or1 across Central America, and must re gard any such connection or control as njurlous to the jusi rights and Iner ests of the United States and as a menace to their welfare XTitder the MayPauncofote treaty it was explicitly provided that the United States should control, polico and protect the canal which was to be built keeping it open for the vessels of all nations on equal terms. The United States thus assumed the posi tion of guarantor of the canal and of us peaceful use by all the world. The guaranty Included ?s a matter of course the building of the canal. The enterprise was recognized as re sponding to an international need; and It would be the veriest travesty "ii liKht and justice to treat the gov ernments in |H>ssession of the Isthmus as having the right. In the language of Mr, Cass, "to close the gates of In tercourse on the grent highways of tho world, and justify the act by the pre tension thai thoso avenues of trado and travel beong to them and that they choose to shut thorn." When this Government submitted to C olombia the Hay Hon an treaty threo things w ere, therefore, already settled One was that the canal shobl be nnill. The time for delay, the time for permitting the attempt to be made by private enterprise, tho time for permit t.ng any government of anti-social spirit and of imperfect development 1<> bar the work had pass n<l The United States had assumed in connection with the ? anal certain i esponsibiiities not only to its own people, but to the civilized world, which Imperatively demanded hat there should no longer be delay in beginning the work. second. While It was settled that ? he canal should be built without un necessary or improper delav. it was no less clearly shown to he our pur pose to deal not merely in spirit of I justice but In h spirit of generosity with the people through whoso land wo might build It.The Hay-Horran treaty, If II orred at all, erred la tho qire<*itou of an over generosity \<> wards (ho Colombian government. in our anxiety^ (o be fair we bad gone to the very verge Jn yielding to a weak nation h demands what t ho nation wax hi'lpi^Skly unable to enforce from us a gal notour will 'Phfl only criticism mado m>on the admlnist .ration for the j terms pf the Hay-Herrau treaty were ! for living granted too mu -h to Colotn ! blayiiot for failure to grant enough. | Nvfther in the Congress nor in the j public preuft, at the time that tliU I treaty was formulated, werebere oem- j plaints that It did not (n the fullest ! and amplest manner guarantee to (Jo- j lotnbia everything that ?he could by | any color of title demand. Nor la the fad to ho lost wight of ? hat the rejected treaty, while gener ously responding to the pecuniary de mand-! of Colombia, in other respecta merely provided for the construction of the canal in conformity with the ex- i pt eased requirements of the act of Congress of Juue 28. l'joz. Hy that act, aa heretofore quoted, the President was authorized to acquire from Co lombia, for the purposes of the canal "perpetual control" of a certain atrip of land and it wan expreaaly required i that the "control" thua to be obtained ahoul include "JuriKdlctlon" to make ; police and sanitary regulatina and to I establish such judicial tribunals an , migiit bo agreed upon their enforce- 1 ment. These were condtiona piece j dent prescribed by the Congress; and i tor their fulfillment suitable wtlpula t ion s were embodied In the treaty. It j baa boon stated in public prints that Colombia objected to theae atlpula t'ons, on the ground that they involv ed a rellqiilshment of her "aoverolgn ty;" but In the light of what has taken places this alleged objection must be considered as ati after thought. In 'reality, the treaty, In stead of retiring a evasion of Colom bia's sovereignty over JLe canal atrip, expressly acknowledged, confirmed! and preserved her sovereignty over it. The treaty in this respect simply proceeded on the lines on which all i the negotiations leading up tothe pres- ! i nt situation have been conducted. In 1 those negotiations the exercise by the 1 l ulled States, subject to the para | mount rights of the local sovereign. ? of a substantial control over the canal ! and tho immediately adjacent terrlto- ! ry, baa been treated as a fundament- ! al part of any arrangemen that might be made, it has formed an .essential j feature for all our plans, and its ne- ' ceaslty Is fully recognized In the Hay Pauncefoto treaty. The Congress, In ! providing that such control should bo ! secured ^adopted no new principle, ' but only incorporated in if legisla- 1 lion, tiie importance and propriety of which weie universally recognized. During all the years of negotiation j and discussion that preceded the con- i < ItiHlon of tho Hay-IIerran treaty, Colombia never intimated that tho re quirement by tho United States of ! 'ontrol over the canal strip would render unattainable the construction of a canal by way of the isthmus of I'anama ; nor were advised, during 'he months when legislation of 1902 was pending before the Congress, that the terms which It embodied would ! render negotiations with Colombia Impracticable. It la plain hat no na t on could construct and guarantee I the neutralit> of the canal with a less degree of control than was stipulated for In the Hay-Horran treaty, A ro [ tusal to grant such degree of control I was necessarily a rofusal to make any : practical treaty at all. Such refusal | therefore squarely raised the question whether Colombia was entitled to bar | the transit of the world's traffic j across the Isthmus. That the canal Itself was eagerly de manded hy the people of the locality | thioiigh which it was to pass, .and that I the people of this locality no less ea sily longed for its construction under I American control, are shown by the t unanimity of action in the new Pana I Republic. Furthermore, Colombia after, having rejected the treaty In j spite of our protests and warnings when it was iu.her power to accept it. lias since shown the utmost eagerness to accept the same treaty If only the status quo could be restored. One of the men standing highest in the official circles of Colombia, on November 6, addressed tiny American "minister at Hogota, sayirig that if tho Government of tho United States would land troops to preserve Colombian sovereignty and the transit, the Colombian Government would "declare martial law; and, by virtue of vested constitutional authori ty. public order Is disturbed, (would) approve by decree the ratifi cation of the canal treaty as signed; or, if the Government of the United States prefers, (would) call extra ses sion of the Congress? with new and trlendly members? next May to ap prove the treaty." Having these facts in view, there is no shadow of ques tion that the Government of the United States proposed iv'treaty which was not merely Just, but generous to Colombia, which our people regarded as erring, if at all. on the side of overgenerosity ? which was hailed with delight by the j people of the Immediate locality | through which the canal was to pass. who were most concerned as to the i new order of things, and which the I Colombian authorities now recognize j as being so good that they are willing to promise Its unr onditltfba! ratifica tion If only we will desert those who have shown themselves our friends and restore to those who have shown them - selvs unfriendly the power to undo what they did. I pass by the question as to what assurance we have that they would now keep their pledge ami not again refuse to ratify the treaty If they had the power; for. of course. I will not for one moment discuss tiie possibility of the United Stotes com mitting an act of such baseness as to abandou the new Republic of Panama. Third. Finally the Congress definite ly settled where the canal was to be built. It was provided that a treaty should be made for building the oanal across the isthmus of Panama; and If, after reasonable time ,lt proved Impos sible to secure such treaty, that then we should go to Nicaragua. The treaty has been made; for It needs no argu Favorable Report. Washington. ^Special. ?

Colombia, or Panama mat tered (tot one whit. As eveAts turned out, the question of "reasonable time" did not enter into the matter at all. Although, ?h tho months went by, it became lucrcauingly improbable that the ('O'uQibj^n Couj{rcp>?s Tt&uld ratify the treaty or ta-ke which would be equivalent thereto, yet all chances for such action on their i>art did not vaulbh until the Congress closed at the end of October; and within three daya thereafter the revolution in Pan ama had broken out. i'anama became an independent utate, and the control of the territory necessary (or building the canal then became obtainable. The condition under which alone we could have gone to Nicaragua thereby be came liuposaible of fulfillment. If the pending treaty with Panama should not be ratified by the Senate this would not alter the fa< t that wo could not go to. Nicaragua The Congress has de cided the route, and there is no alter native under existing legislation. When In August it began to appear piobable that the Colombian legisla ture would not latlfy the treaty it be came Incumbent upon me toxconslder well what the situation was an*! to be jeady to advise the Congress as to what were the various alternatives of action open Co us. There were several possibilities. One was that Colombia would at the last moment see the un wisdom of her position. That there might be nothlug omitted. Secretary Hay, through the minister at Bogota, repeatedly warned Colombia that grave consequence* might follow from her rejection of the treaty. Although It waa a constantly diminishing dujnce, yet the possibility of ratification did not wholly pass away until the close of the session of the Colombian Congress. A second alternative was that by tho c-lose of the seseton on the last day of October, without the ratification of the treaty by Colombia and without any uteps taken by Panama, the American Congress on assembling early In No vember would lx? confronted with A situation in which there had been a failure to cotfie to terms as to building the canal along Panama route, and yej; there hm&SSt been a lapse of a reasonable time ? fcslng the word rea sonable In aay proper sense such as rtould Justify the Adlminstratlon going to the Nlcarauga route, This situation seemed on tho whole the most likely, and as a matter of fact I had made the original draft of my Message to the Congress with a view to Its ex istence. ? ****? * In view of all these facts l directed the Navy Department to Issue Instruc tions such as would Insure our hav ing ships within ea?y reach of the Is thmus in the event of need arising. Orders were given on October 19 to the Boston to proceed to San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua; to the Dixie to prepare to sail from League Island; and to the Atlanta to proceed to Cuantanaino. On October 30 the Nashville was ordered to proceed to Colon. On November 2 when, the Colombian Congress having adjourn ed, it waa evident that the outbreak was imminent, and when It waa an nounced that both sides were making ready forces whose meeting would I mean bloodshed and disorder, the Co lombian troops having been embarked on vessels, the following instructions were s?'tit to the commanders of the Bi ston. Nashville and Dixie: ******* In the third place, 1 confidently maintain that the recognition of the Republic of Panama was an act justi fied by the interests of collective civil ization. If ever a government could be said to have received a mandate from civilization to effect an object the ac complishment of which was demanded In the interest of mankind, the United .States holds that position with respect to the luteroceanic canal. Since our purpose to build the canal was definite ly announced, there have come from all quarters assurances of approval and encouragement., in which even Colom bia herself at one time participated, and to general assurances were added specific acts and declarations. In or der that no obstacle might stand in our way. dreat Britain renounced im portant rights under the Clayton-liul wer treaty, and agreed to its abroga tion, receiving in return nothing but our honorable pledge to build the ca nal and protect It as an open highway. It was in view bf this pledge, and of the proposed enaietmerit by the Con gress of the United States of legisla tion to give it Immediate effect, that the second Pnn-Amerlcan Congress, at the City of Mexico, on January 22, 1902. adopted the following resolution: "The republics assembled at the In ternational Conference of Mexico np ploud the purpose of tho United States I government to construct an Interoce anlc canal, and acnowledge that this work will not only be Worthy of the greatness of the American people, but 1 also In the highest Bense a work of civ I Ulzatlon. and to the greatest degree ? beneficial to the development of com i merce between the American States i and the other countries of the world." Among those who signed this reso | lut Ion on behalf of their respective | governments was General Reyes, the I delegate of Colombia. IJttle could it have been seen that two ycais later the Colombian government, led astray by false allurements of selfish advantage, j and forgotful alike of Its International i obligations and of the duties and re | sponslbllltlea- of sovereignty, would thwart the efforts of the United States to enter upon and complete a work which the nations of America, reecho i ing the sentiments of the nations of 1 Kurope. had pronounced to be not only j "worthy of the greatness of the Ameri ! can people." but also In the highest j sense "a work of civilization." | In conclusion let mo repeat that the : question actually before this govern ment is not that of thf? recognition of ' I'anama as an Independent repuMle i That is already nn accomplished fact, i The question, and the only question, i is whether or not wo shall build an I Ishmian canal. I transmit herewith copies of the latest notes f?om the minister of the Republic of Panama to this govern ment .and of certain notes which have passed between tho special envoy of the Republic of Colombia and this gov j ernment. ?

Dr. iiartman ia receiving hundred* of such letter* daily. All clasaea write these let ter*, frohj the highest to tl\e lowest,. The outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan, the clerk, thd editor, the statesman, the fireacher all agree that Peruna i* the ca arrh remedy of the age. The stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh aa-thelr great eat enemy, are especially enthusiastic in 1 their praise and testimony. Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Cft ; tnrrh ia well nigh universal; almost omni present. Peruna ia the only absolute safe guard known. A cold is the beginning of catarrh. To prevent cold*, to cure colds, ia to .cheat catarrh out of ita victims. Pe runa not only cures catarrh, but prevents it. Every household should be supplied with this ere^t remedy for coughs, cold* and so forth. The Governor of Oregon ia an ardent, admirer of Peruna. He keeps it continu ally in the house.
