Letter of Acceptance from President McKinley on Philippines policy
President McKinley submits a long acceptance letter outlining the Republican stance on gold standard, silver issue, and reconstruction of the Philippines. He defends the 1898 war, the 1899 treaty with Spain, amnesty plans, civil government aims, and the goal of stable self-government for the Philippine Islands while denying independence for insurgents. He stresses sovereignty, anti-imperialism by enemies, and duty to duty over desertion.
