It is one, as to the aititude of this country of 100,000,000 people to take, whether to stand helpless and undefended, an easy prey to the larg- est cormorant nation which may take it into its head to attack us: whether this country shall obey the mandate of the constitution of the United States and maintain an adequate army and navy, not with any idea of mak- ing war either of offense or defense, but, as I regard it, with the same com- mon sense view that a city would maintain an adequate police force.” Horse Killed Himself Running Train.
