As preparations are going rapidly forward for a world-wide celebration of the opening of the Panama Canal, at the exact time determined nearly ten years ago under the Second lsthmian Commission, whose administration constituted what has come to be known as the railroad régime at Panama, in fancy I see many scores of men scattered over the forty-eight States and other scores still in the Canal Zone, who helped to make the work of that régime notable in the history of human achievement, scanning with perplexity the books that have been written about the new waterway and the articles con cerning it in the public prints. Is it a fact or is it a dream, in imagination I hear them say, that it was the railroad men of the United States Who created a modern state in that ten.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Panama Canal: System and Projects The Panama Canal is an undertaking of the vastest meaning to America, commercially and nationally. Its construction should be so correct as to leave nothing for present regret or future challenge. It becomes in some measure the duty of every engineer who cherishes his ideal for this great public work to break his silence and reserve if he perceives that in any vital degree or at any remediable point the Canal seems failing Of the highest that it can achieve. No one knows more intimately the elements, no one knows more profoundly the difiiculties, inherent in this vast problem, than the eminent men, French and American, who, from the inception in 1879 all the way to to-day, have studied and planned by the best in them to solve its perplexities. Let praise go to them unstinted, for this is their smallest due. Believing profoundly, though reluct antly, that the announced methods of solution are not such as to secure to the American people the best, the safest and the most enduring Canal, the writer feels that he would be faithlesscto his citizenship did he not state so. Knowing further that there exists a more scientific system, it has become his duty as. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The United States and the Panama Canal If constructed with the goodwill and guarantee of the great commercial nations, the canal cannot fail to become a blessing to the world's commerce and a great financial success. Most of the rapidly increasing trade between Europe and the Pacific shores, would prefer a passage - of at the most but two days' length - through the canal, assisted largely by the gulf stream, in employing that route and saving three thousand miles, to the tedious, stormy and dangerous rounding of Cape Hem. The yearly increasing trade of Japan and China with the East Coast of the Americas, with Cuba and the West Indies, as well as with a great portion of Europe, would largely patronize the canal, and the greater portion of the traffic between the Atlantic and Pacific shores in both Americas would find the Ist canal route advantageous above all others.

Download or read book Alaska and the Panama Canal (Classic Reprint) written by William D. Boyce and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alaska and the Panama Canal For Alaska we paid Russia for the Panama Canal Zone we paid the Panama Republic These were bargain prices, the sums paid being insignificant as com pared to the value of the lands, the one being small, but as important as any piece of ground of equal size upon the globe, the other magnificent in area and containing wealth many times greater in amount than the price we paid for it. For years Alaska has been a particularly interesting country to me, but after miles of travel in this vast Northern Territory of ours, I was more than ever impressed with its great resources, and the further fact that our governmental policy was crippling and restricting its proper and natural development. I fully believe that Alaska should be made into a colonial possession and not remain a Territory. I also believe that our Government should not engage in railway construction in Alaska, where failure can be the only result. It has seemed to me that not only was Alaska in itself worth writing about, but that political obstructions that have been placed in the path of its progress ought to be removed. My reasons, I believe, will be found good and sufficient by readers of the chapters on Alaska that follow.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Panama Canal: Its Past, Present, and Future The Isthmus of Panama has been well described as a barrier between two oceans which has, nevertheless, failed to serve as a bridge between two continents. So rugged and overgrown with tropical jungle, and so subject to malarious and other disorders is this isthmus, that, despite its fame and its beauties in certain respects, this natural pathway between North and South America has been neglected as a means of transit, in a longitudinal direction, from the one to the other; and it still remains - away from the immediate influence of the canal works almost as wild as when traversed by Balboa. The same may be said concerning great portions of South America, which remain unaltered since first aroused by the tramp of the European horseman. No railway or road traverses the isthmus connecting the two continents The Panama Railroad crossed it transversely; an isolated link of communication in the interrupted navigation between the Pacific and the Atlantic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hero of Panama: A Tale of the Great Canal Even a nigger would have been inclined to grumble. But the Chinamen aboard the tub seemed, if any thing, rather to enjoy this rocking. One of them stood almost amidships, his feet wide apart to pre serve his balance, while he gripped the handle of the pump he was working, and turned it over and over with a monotonous regularity that seemed to match with his surroundings. The man, who was barefooted, boasted of the very lightest of clothing, and wore his pigtail rolled in a coil at the back of his head. Other protection against the roasting sun he had none. Indeed, to look at him, he hardly seemed to need it, while the hot blast which came from the adjacent land passed over him without any apparent effect. Ching Hu was in his element.
