The DEMOCRAT would not have the
United States wage any vars for con-
quest, but in such case ms the war
with Spain, conquest is bound TO follow,
and naturally. Though from different
cause the annexation Of Hawaii is the
natural growth of a long and intimate
commercial relationship, aud is entirely
proper. The United States as a great
fret class nation must act firmly and
with dignity, asserting Ler rights in
good temper. and pushing forward
abreast of the other great nations OF the
world, not in lofty, dudish spirit, that
often leads to ruin, but soberly and with
confidence.
