They would lay themselves liable to coercion
from the fact that ii they failed to ratify the
treaty they would lose thirty millions Of the
peoples money. Suppose the treaty should
provide that Cuba should at once come into the
Union and settle its form Of government,
would Senators be prepared for that ! Soon.
err than ratify an improper treaty he would
forfeit the mouey, He. for one, would think
il the best policy for Cuba to maintain an
independent government. enjoying the adj
vantages Of free intercourse with Us and our
protection.
"He objected to granting this money to
the President, because he would preserve the
robes Of office pure, unspotted, an above sus-
picion. He would be accused Of misapplying
the money. Was ii to be used for any
purpose of corruptioni He regarded the
whole scheme as n magnificent delusion---as
the political fireworks of the Administration,
to give new hue and complexion. Il was
all a piece Of fanfaronade, and nothing more.
The scheme would eventually burst like a
bubble. Cuba would ultimately come to us
Of its own accord, and it was hardly worth
two hundred millions to relieve their impa-
thence, There was much to be done to de-
velop the resources and promote the pro.
gress Of our own country, and Government
would do better to turn its attention to these
things than to engage in these impractlcable
schemes abroad"
