their utmost TO avert the war 20 which
We are being provoked.
THE LIMITS.

concession compatible with honor and
territorial integrity. We consented 20
the last concession az the instance Of the

fact: but now attempts are made upon
our honor and inenaces directed against
our territory That is thing 70 which
Spaniards will never consent. (Applause)
This is not the moment 20 trace par
liamentary programme, but the moment
TO unite ourselves, as our fathers have
done. In the face OF an odious attempt
against the integrity OF our territory.

infamous that has ever been onered'
