On lair and cloudless day IN heshonh Of June 1850
when the loud end deep voice OF Willing mad just died
away in the land, the Senator from Michigan, Of Now

portions Of his private diary himself proceeded % read

strong opinions that by the federal compact the slave

There are two propositions arising out of our interests
in and around the Gulf of Mexico, which admitted
by all statesmen One OF them thet the safety oil
the Southern States requires wntehiul jealousy OF the
presence of European powers IN the southern portions
Of the North American continents and the other Is that
The tendency of commercial and political events in
ytes the United States 60 assGme and exercise para
mount influence in the affairs Of the nations situated Ia
This hemisphere; that IT, To become and remain grea
Western continental power balancing itsel ageiDst the
possble combinations of Europe. The advance OF the
country toward that position constitutes what IN he Ian
guage of many, is called "prOgrcssi and the position
sefi IL what by the same class Is called manifest de
Amy" II is held by oil who approve that progress and
expect that dostny to be necessary % prevent the re-
colonizat of this continent by tue European States
and to save the island of Cuba from passing ont of the
possession OF decsyed Spain into that Of any one Of the
more vigorous maritime powers Of the Old World.
In December 1923, James Monroe President OF the
uifaNG fgfe In
claimed the first of these two policies subst anualy as
follows The American continents, by the Tree ana IN
dependen, condition which they have assume and main
lain are henceoth not ne considered subjects TOR

existing rights should be respected the saety and Ia
tercst OF the United States require them % announce
that no future colony dominion shall with their con
sent bo planted established in any part Of the North
Amerc an continent" This is what is called here ani
elsewhere the Monroe doctrine far a. involves re-
colonization

John Quincy Adams aftNward acknowledged that he
was the nuthor of q az doctrine policy sni John
c. Calhoun, the 18th of May, 1913, in the Sanae,
Testified on that point fully Senator had related an
alleged conversation, in which Mr. Adams was repre-
scented having sat that three memorable propositions
contained in that message OF which what nave quoted

Thus much for the origin OF The Monroe doctrine GU
colonization Now 1t US turn TO the position OF John
Quincy Adams concerning national jealousy of the de-
signs OF European powers upon the island OF Cuba
The revelations 81 diplomacy on that subject
begin it'll the period when that statesman presided IN
the Department OF State On the l7th Of December
ls22, Mr.. Adams informed Mr. Forsyth, then American
Minister in Spain, that ho Island Of Cuba bad excited
much attention aud had become of deep interest 20 the
American unioni' and referring reported rival de-
signs OF France and Great Britain upon that island TO-
stuctci him 10 make known % Spain the sen;iu ,nts
Of the United States which were favorable 10 the CON

sslh OF April 1893, Mr. Adams thus Instructed Mr. Mel
