II can answer only for myself. My
own position is that the United States
should take and. keep every foot of
ground that has come to us by virtue
of thrashing the Spaniards We
should do this without listening to or
considering the opinion of any other
nation. If we choose later on to give
away or sell any part Of this conquered
territory, it is our right to do SO, and
no other power can say aught against
it. What we have won by the sword is
absolutely our own"
