To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thus it will be seen, Mr. Speaker, that Chief Justice Marshall not only fails to sustain tliese gentlemen, but bases the acquisi- tion of territory, either by conquest or treaty, upon the war- making and treaty-making powers conferred by the Constitution upon the Government. Certainly, the treaty having failed to pass, no gentleman will contend that we are attempting to take Hawaii by conquest or by the power to admit States. They must there- fore stand with the chairman of the Foreign Affairs ...Committee [Mr. Hitt], who insists, in substance, that the National Govern- ment has the inherent right to acquire territory in this manner. The Constitution having pointed out the several ways in which territory may be lawfully acquired, I for one decline to accept this new doctrine by which territory can eventually come into partnership with the States and have equal rights and representa- tion on the floor of Congress and elsewhere without first runmng the gantlet of every constitutional safeguard.
