se,atdtives:.
WAsn1scroN, D.. c., Dec. I'm
submitting my seventh annual mes
sage to congress in this centennial
year Of our national existence as
free and independent people, it affords
me great pleasure to rccur to the adj
vancement that has been made from
the time Of the colony, one hundred
years ago. We were then a people
numbering only three millions. Now
we number more than forty millions.
Then industries were confined al
most exclusively to the tillage Of the
soil. Now manufacturers absorb
much of the labor Of the country
Our liberties remain unimpaired.
The bondsmen have been freed from
slavery. We have become possessed
Of the respect if not the friendship Of
all Civilized nations. Our progress
has been great in all the arts. In
science, agriculture, commerce,
navigation, mining, law, medicine,
etc, and in general education the
progress is likewise encouraging.-
Our thirteen states have become
thirty.eight, including Colorado, which
has token the initial stops to become
& state; md eight tsrritories, in.
Guiding the Indian territory and
Alaska, and excluding Colorado,
making territory extending from
the Atlantic 10 the Pacific.
On the south we have extended to
the Gulf Of Mexico and in the west,
from the Mississippi to the Pacific,
and 100 years ago the cotton gin, the
steamship, the rail-road, the telegraph

tious questions; it would release the
parent government from responsible
" for acts done by the insurgents,
and would invest Spain with the right
to exercise the supervision recognized
by our treaty of 1905 over our com
mcrcc on the high seas, very large
part OF which, in its transit, passes
through waters which wash the shores
of Cuba. The exercise Of this super.
vision could scarcely fail to lead to
abuses, and certainly to the copclu.
sion OF the previous peaceful relations
of the two States. What result such
supervision would before long draw
this nation into would be unworthy
Of the United States to inauguratc
the possibilities Of such results by
measure Of questionable right or cx-
pediency, or by any indiscretionapart
from any question Of theoretical right.
am satisfied that while the accor-
dance Of bclligerent rights to the in
s1rgents in Cuba might give them
hope to protract the struggle, it
would he but deceiying hope, and
would notrcmove evils which this
governmentSand its people arc expcr-
fencing, but would draw tho United
States Into complications which it
has waited long and, suffered much to-
avoid.
The recognition ofindepcndcnlc or
ofbelligerency being thus, in my judg.
-ment, equally inadmiss,blc, itSteinains
to consider what course shall be
adopted, should the conflict not soon
5be brought to an end-by the parties
themselves, and should the evils
which result thcrefrom and which al
.tlict all nations, and particularly
the United States, continue. In
such an event, I am Of the
opinion that other nations will be
compelled TO assume the responsible
fty which sdevolves upon them, and to
seriously consider the only remaining
measurc-1nediation. Owing, per.
'haps, to the large expanse of water
