now turn us over to her tender
mercies," Uncle Sam can consist
emily reply You have helped us
to conquer Spain no more than
we have helped you to do it."
This country has simply fought
the battles of that people and
left the benefits and results to
them. Does doing this impose
on this country any obligation
TO do another favor because it
has conferred one? Has its aid
To them done anything to them
except to contribute to the ac-
complishment of their original
designs which they had formed
independently of and without
any dependence upon such aid as
has thus been rendered them?
This learned jurist we'll says:
"lf we must provide fuel for
our ships we need coal bins. and
we need not broaden them into
dominions. If they must be
guarded and fortified, so that we
may fight our way to and from
them, let us keep them as
England does Gibraltar"
The dangers of a large navy
are even now quite apparent.
We see it in the manifestations of
human nature already displayed.
Promotion comes slowly in times
of peace and ambitious naval
officers are beginning to see that
it requires war to bring them
about speedily. This will induce
them to encourage war to bring
them about. Besides this desire
for military renown will inspire
the minds OF the whole people TOR
a desire of a renown in which all
share. Then too if the United
States assumes the right to seize
and exercise dominion over far
off island in the neighborhood of
foreign powers, and over which
the latter have been accustomed
to exercise some kind of jurisdic-
ton, how long can we logically
maintain that European powers
have no right to take an island
that bears a like relation to this
country?
