Against that cruel policy the United States government firmly and earnestly pro tested. Today Spain has "recalled One way . the commander whose brutil orders Round trip inflamed the American mind and shocked the civilized world. She has modified the horrible order ot concentration." And, in good faith above all question, she offers tD . Cuba a scheme of reforms and self- government comparable with the most liberal ever made by. a parent country to a colony. In this immeasurably ameliorated state of affairs, what is the further duty of this nation ? On this point the president is troubled with no doubts, nor should any one b who thoughtfully reads his convincing discussion of it. Forcible annexa tion would be a crime. He does I f-)"irhT)C not sonsidcr it. Recognition of in- fl lp laO dependence or belligerency would be inadvisable, largely for the very same reasons which twenty-two years ago constrained this government to withhold such action. The extended quotation from President Grant's message of December, 1875, which the president makes, is entirely apt to the existing situation. Recogni tion, and the consequent exercise of the right of search on the seas and seizure or goods contraband or war j would be onerous and embarrassing to this country, and, while theoretic ally serving both belligerents alike, would practically, for obvious rea sons, operate heavily to the advan tage of Spain. . Other foreign topics are of less importance, and receive less atten tion in the message, though they are all treated in a straightforward and convincing manner. Ratification of the Hawaiian annexation treaty i. urged, on grounds of fitness, right and justice, and not of mere expedi ency, and assurance is given that friendly relations with Japan will not be jeopardized thereby.
