Mr.. Adams. the acting chairman OF the
committee. closed the debate. He reviewed
the half century of Spanish misrule in
Cuba which had kept the United States
in ferment politically and financially and
the history OF the cruelties and barbarity
of the present war on the island. This |
country would not deserve TO stand in
the domain of civilized nations said he,
lit would not be entitled to rank among
the Christian states if it should not inter-
vene in order to stop this cruel warfare
which Spain has practiced."
He stated the argument against recogniZ-
ing the :nsurgent government and conclud-
ed as follows:
We stand, as 1 believe. in one of the
greatest and most momentous eras in the
history of our country; and as an Aneri-
can representative l want to make one
appeal to the men Of this house. without
respect to party. when the roll is called
and the demand is made upon them to de-
| fend American honor and American prin-
ciples, which have been assailed by the
Spanish nation. l ask that one and all
rise in their places and cast their votes TO
show the world, as We did d few weeks
ago, that, however We may differ upon
matters of detail, We are Americans one
and all. and that politics cease at the sea
| coast" cloud applause.)
