  • Birth of a Republic
    Chapter 3 Pre-Natal Labor in the Birth of a Republic Cromwell had on the Isthmus both American and Pana- de- pendent dnTrrrgoodwill forTheir livelihood. They were ac> "cusiomed to taking orders fr6m liliu because he, as general counsel of the railroad and of its owner, the New Panama Canal Company of France, was virtually the head of the operation. These potential instruments for revolution were Jose Augustin Arango, land agent and local attorney for the railroad, who was also its lobbyist in Bogota as Senator representing the Department of Panama; Captain James PL and port R. Beer^Jreight agent captain; James ^ perintendent; Herbert G. Prescott assist^FTuperintend- ent; and DrManuel Amador Guerrero, the railroad's med- """ ical officer! Senator Arango told some, but by no means all of the story of the "revolution" in his pamphlet, "Data for a His- 23 24 The Untold Story of Panama tory of the Independence^ It was printed in pamphlet form in 1905. Telltale data in an earlier version were de- leted. Even the 1905 pamphlet was removed from the Con- gressional Library in Washington. In it Arango said he re- fused to attend the 1903 session of the Colombian Congress because he was convinced the Hay-Herran Treaty would be rejected and that secession would be "the only way for the salvation of the Isthmus." Arango's official version was that he sought out Captain Beers, "a man of entire trustworthiness and excellent judg- ment having influence with persons in high places," and asked him to go to New York. Also that "Captain Beers ac- cepted the delicate mission and immediately left for the United States." The persons with influence in high places whom Beers knew were in Cromwell s office.

  • Settlement Colonialism: Compensatory Justice in United States Expansion, 1903-1941
    Settlement Colonialism: Compensatory Justice in United States Expansion, 1903-1941 Allison Powers Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Art and Sciences Columbia University 2017 © 2017 Allison Powers All rights reserved ABSTRACT Settlement Colonialism: Compensatory Justice in United States Expansion, 1903-1941 Allison Powers Between the mid nineteenth century and the early twentieth, the United States transformed from a set of contiguous states into a far-flung global empire. As foreign policymakers sought to justify this expansion through the framework of law, they turned to the concept of compensation to reconcile the large-scale dispossession that resulted from territorial acquisition with a political system committed to the protection of private property. The United States became a leading advocate of international claims settlement to resolve the legal problems that arose out of imperial expansion, submitting to a series of tribunals designed to award monetary compensation for life and property lost as a result of annexation. At face value, these Claims Commissions secured the peaceful resolution of political conflict through the seemingly neutral mechanism of the market. However, the arbitrations had unanticipated consequences for the U.S. government. When denied remedies in domestic forums, foreign nationals living in American territories used the process of international claims settlement to demand their own visions of justice. “Settlement Colonialism:

  • Manifesto on Panamanian Independence, 1903 Upon
    Manifesto on Panamanian Independence, 1903 Upon declaring independence, the leaders of a Panamanian provisional government junta issued the following statement. Jose Agustín Arango, a politician, led this group, and served alongside two businessmen, Federico Boyd, and Tomás Arias. The transcendental act that by a spontaneous movement the inhabitants of the Isthmus of Panama have just executed is the inevitable consequence of a situation which has become graver daily. Long is the recital of the grievances that the inhabitants of the Isthmus have suffered from their Colombian brothers; but those grievances would have been withstood with resignation for the sake of harmony and national union had its separation been possible and if we could have entertained well- founded hopes of improvement and of effective progress under the system to which we were submitted by that Republic. We have to solemnly declare that we have the sincere and profound conviction that all the hopes were futile and useless, all the sacrifices on our part. The Isthmus of Panama has been governed by the Republic of Colombia with the narrow-mindedness that in past times were applied to their colonies by the European nations—the isthmian people and territory was a source of fiscal resources and nothing more. The contracts and negotiations regarding the railroad and the Panama Canal and the national taxes collected in the Isthmus have netted to Colombia tremendous sums which we will not detail, not wishing to appear in this exposition which will go down to posterity as being moved by a mercenary spirit, which has never been nor is our purpose; and of these large sums the Isthmus has not received the benefit of a bridge for any of its numerous rivers, nor the construction of a single road between its towns, nor of any public building, nor of a single college, and has neither seen any interest displayed in advancing her industries, nor has a most infinite part of those sums been applied toward her prosperity.

  • 14 Gobernantes De Panamá
    Gobernantes:Maquetación 1 9/2/12 2:58 PM Página 1 GOBERNANTES DE PANAMÁ Panamá era parte del virreinato del Perú y luego en 1739 fue parte del nuevo virreinato de Nueva Granada. Este virreinato comenzó a independizarse de España desde 1810. Panamá la logró el 28 de noviembre de 1821. Después, en 1840, líderes panameños lograron independizarla de Nueva Granada y se creó el Estado del Istmo bajo la dirección de Tomás Herrera. Sin embargo este estado no pudo mantenerse independiente y en diciembre de 1841 volvió a formar parte de la entonces República de Nueva Granada, que a partir de 1886 se llamó República de Colombia. En 1903, la lucha entre diferentes grupos y una difícil situación en la construcción del Canal de Panamá motivó a los líderes panameños a recibir ayuda de Estados Unidos y así obtuvieron la separación de Colombia el 3 de noviembre de 1903. Demetrio H. Brid asumió el mando por un día mientras se constituyó la Junta Provisional de Gobierno, la cual gobernó del 4 de noviembre de 1903 al 19 de febrero de 1904.

  • Distribution Ano Variation in Roystonea
    A SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL ISSUED BY THE ESCUELA AGRICOLA PANAMERICANA LOUIS O. WILLIAMS, EDITOR TEGUCIGALPA, HOI"OURAS FEBRUARY 29, 1952 = VOL. 3- No. 1 DISTRIBUTION ANO VARIATION IN ROYSTONEA PAUL H. ALLEN IN A PLANT FAMILY replete with strikingly handsome genera, the Roystoneas well merit their name of Royal Palms. Certainly their gigantic size and regal asped put them in a class apart. Their unquestionable emotional impact on every traveler has led to their wide dissemination throughout the tropics of both hemispheres, where they may be seen as dooryard specimens or in stately avenues. In spite of their frequence in townsites, the group is not well understood, and many perplexing pro­ blems present themselves to the most . casual observer. In the Canal Zone and adjacent Panama, and in San José, Costa Rica, for example, one cannot help but notice the often striking differences in the local cultivated specimens. Old stands, such as those planted in front of the Hotel Washington in Colón, and the street plantings from Gorgas Hospital to the post office in Ancón are very mixed, sorne being tremendously tall, with uniformly cylindric trunks and nearly horizontal fronds, while others are considerably shorter, with bulging trunks and drooping foliage. Spathes and inflorescences vary in length and in profile, and the fruits often vary in color and shape.
