Hoar Speaks Against Imperialism in Three Hour Senate Address
Massachusetts Senator Hoar delivered a lengthy opposing imperialism speech in the Senate. The 59 000 word address, cut short by illness, praised Aguinaldo and urged adherence to republican principles, warning that forceful annexation would harm liberty and the party. He invoked Jefferson and Washington, contrasted expansion with freedom, and urged self government for the Philippines while keeping foreign powers out. The speech featured a dramatic roll call of presidents and ended with a vow to persist in the policy of independence for islands until self rule is achieved.
