In view of its 1 submission to the Congress, I wish to ' call attention to exactly what was done under my administration. ,. "Because of the action of the ad 1 ministration, the people of the' Unl ? ted States acquired what they could by no other means have acquired, the ' right to build tbe Panama canal. In 1 1003 lt was till doubtful whether we would adopt the Nlcarauguan or the ?Panama route. The government of i Colombia was exceedingly anxious that . wo should accept the latter, and offer ed to arrange, and did arrange, a ? treaty with us to prevent our going ? to Nlcarauga.
