Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Address by Elihu Root: Before the Union League Club of Chicago, February 22, 1904 On the 3d of November, 1903, the people of Panama revolted against the Government of Columbia, and proclaimed their in dependence. On the 13th of November the United States recognized the independence of the Republic of Panama, by receiving a Minister from the new Government, and at the opening of the regular session of Congress in December, the President asked the consent of the Senate to a treaty negotiated between our Secretary of State, Mr. Hay, and the Minister of Panama, Mr. Varilla, providing for the construction by the United States of a ship canal across the Isthmus, to be kept by us open, neutral and free upon equal terms for the use of all man kind. After long and exhaustive discussion that treaty is about to be confirmed. In the meantime, the Senate by a great majority has approved the recognition of independence by confirming the nomination of William I. Buchanan as Minister from the United States to Panama. The revolutionary leaders have submitted their action to the people of Panama, who have, by a popular vote, given it their unanimous approval, and have elected a constitutional convention, framed and adopted a constitution, chosen a president and congress, and established a republican government according to the forms which find their model in the constitutions of our own Country. In the meantime, also, many other governments have followed the United States in receiving the new republic into the family of Nations.
