Berry, of Kentucky, in the House of Representatives, Wednesday, June 15, 1898 Think of it, sir, in 1803, we were about people. We had just emerged from a fearful struggle. Our garments were torn and bloody. Scarcely knowing whether we had a national existence, and only by the aid of a foreign power could we have achieved our independence. The mouth of the Mississippi was owned by foreign powers, and its commerce would be largely con trolled by them. The first intention was to purchase what was known as the Island of New Orleans, where the city is now situ ated, as a resting place for the craft navigating that stream, which would of necessity be rapidly augmented.

This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hawaiian Annexation: Speech of Hon. Robert R. Hitt, of Illinois, in the House of Representatives, Saturday, June 11, 1898 They sit facing our western coast - that long stretch confronting the great Pacific Ocean, the most extensive body of water in the world, stretching away for six, seven, eight thousand miles-and they are the nearest point to our coast, and far, very far, removed from any other point in that vast sea. They are miles away from us. That seems a very considerable distance, but the im mense stretch beyond them to the other portions of the earth is so much greater that they seem comparatively near and are a part of our own system. With the great change in the construction of fighting ships, all of which are now moved by steam, coal has become an essential of maritime war, as much so as powder or guns, and across that wide ocean any vessel of war coming to attack the United States must stop for coal and supplies at the Hawaiian Islands before it can attack us. NO ship can be constructed, no battle ship exists in the world, which can make the trip from the other side of that wide sea to our shores, conduct any Operation of hostility against us, and ever get back unless it has its supply of coal renewed. Mr. Kelley. Will the gentleman permit an interruption? I simply want to call the gentleman's attention to the map. Mr. Hitt. We are all pretty familiar with the map - the re markable position Of these islands and the routes that ships are accustomed to follow. I do not suppose that my personal opin ion is worth more than that of the average Of mankind who are not specially qualified as commanders and mariners, nor that any member of the House is so presumptious as to consider his own personal Opinion itself an important fact. But we have on this critical and central question, which is not one of common judgment, the opinions of the most distinguished, specially expert. And able men of the age, the greatest commanders of our armies and our. fleets who are living. It is an impressive and convincing fact that all have given the same Opinion. There has been no divergence. Everyone has stated that the possession of those islands was to us of great importance, many of them say indispensable; that it will diminish, not increase, the necessity for naval force. Economize ships of war and not require more; that in the possession of an enemy, if we shall so foolishly and unwisely act as to refuse annexation and permit them to pass into the hands of an enemy, they will furnish a secure base for active operations to harass and destroy the cities of our western coast; that in our possession, duly fortified, tho'se islands will paralyze any fleet, however strong, however superior to our own naval force in the Pacific, before it can attack our coast.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Against the Annexation of the Hawaiian Islands: Speech of Hon. John L. Mitchell, of Wisconsin, in the Senate of the United States, Tuesday, June 21, 1898 Annexation might help Hawaii itself. But our duty requires us to look at this question from a purely selfish standpoint. Unless this measure is clearly to the advantage of the United States, we must cast it out. While annexation ought not to be permitted without a full and free expression on the part of the Hawaiians, still it is not mate rial whether the Hawaiian population, in mass or in any prepor tion, desire annexation or not. It is for them to show a clean bill of political health as a condition precedent to admission. The men in the bowels of the wooden horse were anxious to enter Troy, but they proved undesirable citizens after they were let in. Are we bound to admit to our domestic circle every wanderer who raps at our door? Before we enter into a business partner ship we scrutinize. Before entering into a political partnership we should be more careful still. For the bonds are more difficult to dissolve. We owe the Hawaiians much. In times past they have sent us bananas and we have returned them fleas and gunpowder. They have sent us pineapples and we have returned them muskets, mosquitoes, and the measles. There is an uncomfortable balance against us, but to demand annexation to square accounts is ask ing too much.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annexation of Hawaiian Islands: Speech of Hon. E. D. Crumpacker, of Indiana, in the House of Representative, Tuesday, June 14, 1898 What becomes of the policy advanced by annexationists that the Government can permanently control the islands by a system fitted to their situation, capacity, and development? It is not the policy of the Government to admit any class of people into the political household that can not intelligently and helpfully participate in free government and profit by its privileges. I confess that I have some sentiment upon the question of citizenship. I love to look upon my fellow-citizen with the consciousness that, however hum ble his station in life, he is the equal before the law of the greatest in the land, and that from his loins may spring a posterity that will bless humanity and glorify republican institutions. A race that does not possess these Splendid possibilities must lower the dignity of our citizenship. The marvelous growth and uneven development of the country are largely responsible for present conditions, and many of our most troublesome questions will be removed by time. Our interests will be more equitably adjusted and grow into more harmonious rela tions with further development. The standard of life in all parts of the country must be measured according to a common scale, and we have now as great a diversification of climate, resource, and tendency as can be successfully trained together under one political organization. The Temperate Zone, by inexorable law, has always contained, and always will contain, the highest intelligence of the world and all that is most helpful in civilized life. The tropical climate stifles growth and impedes progress in the individual, and. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
