prevent our interference in the manner
suggested What possible motive could
any European government have for in
terferng to prevent this exercise of our
just rights? To hold Armenia or any
other part of the Turkish dominions
permanently as an American colony
would be opposed to all the traditions

think even of suggesting such a
measure
The reason why the powers of Eu-

supposed to have, designs upon a part
or all of the Turkish dominions. Russia
has feared that England might estab-
