To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I desire the President of the I'nited States to have as much authority to protect American citizens and the American flag abroad as the feecutive of every other civilized nation on earth pos- aesses. * * * i am wiUing to adopt the principle that this authority shall bo vested in the President of the United States, as arightful authority and a permanent rule of action, applicable ail over the world, whenever hk thinks American interest and American honor requires it to be exerted. * * * 'Wheu it... is known that our Executive has the same authority oiitsideof the United States that the British Pre- mier and the French Emperor, or the head of any other na- tion, possesses, you will Cud there will be a less number of outrages, " i:c. If Mr. Douglas had brought forward proposi- tions like this in the heat of debate, aroused by vrarlike excitement, we might excuse him on the plea that his temper ran away with his judgment. But the frequent, deliberate, persistent, reitera- tion of these views must urge the conviction upon us that they have become with him a set- tled political doctrine.
