The feeling against "entangl:ng foreign complications" is quite as strong now as it wasin the days of George Washington We do not need any help from England to fight our battles, and we do not intend to help England to fight her battles. This feeling has been strongly expressed since the idea became prevalent that England was trying to make use of the probability of a war VI. h Spain to inveigle the United State into an alliance offensive and de- feusive with her.
