From the beginning the Latin countries south of the Rio Grande have feared that eventually the United States would begin absorbing them That fear, doubtle is only emphasized by the fact that the United States for taking them Central Am has many times had ample excuse over—particularly Mexico and erican West Indian We been take posse: of whole or part, but back in better condition than we found them, the and repubics several oc jons forced of th we have always turned hav on ion some cept in the case of Mexico, from which we se- cured California, Arizona, New Mexico, etc We took this country for reasons that all must] agree we ble.. It would have been a erime to if we had mnot taken it In faect, it was a near crime that we did not mark the bounday line farther south and take in Mexican territory more of the then uninhabited f redents of history y to all the pri that the United States did not long ago extend her southern boundary to the Isthmus of Pan- ama. The countries south of us have not only offered us many excuses to do so but at times their behavior has been such that restraint has been difficult. South Ameri does mnot unde stand why we have not done it, and she fee that in the end we must get in step with l!lv‘ practices of other Nations and other times. The acquisition of Louisiana, Florida, Texas, Cali- »w Mexico, Alaska, Hawaii, Porto Rico, the a few other widely scattered enough of the expansion spirit the South fear of American fornia, Philippines islands disclosed to keep alive in aggression. In spite of has made an dealings with expansionists and States in her had our different United record that the clean the fact admirably other ccuntries, we have who would have made a record. They came to the front usually, how- ever, when our people were perplexed do- mestic matters and refused to be diverted from them. Jefferson, the greatest of our expansionists, over had his heart set on getting Cuba, and long afteward Buchanan and cthers wanted to buy the island, or take it. But, strangely inconsistent with his hatred of war and his habit of getting along the eas way, Gen. Grant was probably the strongest advo- eate of expansion we have had. 1f he had been a8 adept at statecraft he was in the story of our fcreign relations might have been far different After Appamattox he wanted the United States to send an army into Mexico and one into Canada, Maximillian was attempting to establish himself as of Mexico, clear- ly in violation of the M and Sen- ator Sumner had cooked up a bill against Great Britain of more than two billions of dollars on account of the depredations of the Alabama and as war, s Emperor wroe Doctrine, other English built Southern cruisers, which he suggested could be bal d hy the cession of Canada. ien. Grant wanted United States to square accounts with Maximillian and Eng- land and cement the reunion of the North and South by sending the Union und Confederate armies lately engaged in the Civil War into Mexico and Canada He proposed that Long- street with a Union Army and Sheridan at the head of a Southern cavalry corps be sent into Mexieo and that Sherman and Joe Johnston, with alcombined Union and Confederate army, be sent tto Canada Britain would immed- fately ligquidate Sumner’s bill. Several things tion from Grant's proposal. The majority leaders were hot on the trail of a construction program that would give them Senators, Representatives and electoral votes of the South and continued control of the Na- tional Government. But more important was the wise statesmanship of Secretary Seward, who had developed beyond the idea of a foreign war as an antidote for domestic difficulties. He thought we unless Great to distract atten- Congressional intervened re- the could settle our troubles with England ' and France through negotiations, and he was right. We did However, Gen. Grant had hardly been ,n- augurated as President until he again began thinking of extending the American empire. Woodward, in his recent biography of Gen. Grant, says: From the beginning of his Adminis- tration he had territorial expansion of the United States in mind. He had con- vinced himself through some process of esoteric reasoning, that a large and pow- erful country, with bulldog tendencies, ought to be happier than a smaller cne. He thought of far-flung posses- sions, and of the American drum-beat being heard around the world. However, the refusal of the United States Benate to ratify President Grant's treaty of an- mexation with Santo Domingo dulled his ardor and convinced him that he was not qualified . to match wits with politicians and statesmen. .
