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.

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.
