Fifty years from now, the historian, looking back to 1898, will 110 doubt see, in the course which things will have taken, consequences of the proceedings of that year, and of this present one, which will not all be bad, but you will observe that that is not a justification for a happy-go-lucky policy ; that does not affect our duty to-day in all that we do to seek wisdom and prudence, and to determine our actions by the best judgment which we can form.
War, expansion, and imperialism are questions of statesmanship and of nothing else. I disregard all other aspects of them, and all extraneous elements which have been intermingled with them. I received the other day a circular of a new educational enterprise in which it was urged that, 011 account of onr new possessions, we ought now to devote especial study to history, political economy, and wliat is called political science. I asked myself, why ? What more reason is there for pursuing these studies now 011 behalf of our dependencies than there was before to pursue them 011 behalf of ourselves ? I11 our proceedings of 1S98, we made 110 use of whatever knowledge we had of any of these lines of study. The original and prime cause of the war was that it was a move of partisan tactics in the strife of parties at Washington. As soon as it seemed resolved upon, a number of interests began to see their advantage in it, and hastened to further it. It was necessary to make appeals to the public which would bring quite other motives to the support of the enterprise, and win the consent of classes who would never consent to either financial or political jobbery. Such appeals were found in sensational assertions which we had no means to verify, in phrases of alleged patriotism, in statements about Cuba and the Cubans which we now know to have been entirely untrue.
Where was the statesmanship of all this? If it is not au established rule of statecraft that a statesman should never impose any sacrifices on his people for anything but their own interests, then it is useless to study political philosophy any more, for this is the alphabet of it. It is contrary to honest statesmanship to imperil the political welfare of the state for party interests.
