"When the president lays an inter national controversy before congress he takes the Inst step that precede* war." continued Senator Lodge. "The president might have taken further I stops hut he has come to the body which alone has power to declare war I think he liss done well With congress In session It was right that he should take no further steps with out consulting congress." Senator laslge recounted the legls latlve proceedings which led up to passage of the Spanish war resolu tion and Senator Williams asked how long It took congress to pass that. "It took much more than one day,' replied Senator Lodge. Senatoi lat Follette stated con great took from April 11th to April 19th to pass the resolution in 1898.

After reviewing tile Tampico Inci dent Senator Lodge declared: Wat No Insult. "There is no doubt in my ndmt that I that Incident at Tampico constituted j an Insult to the American flag and tha j Am< i lean uniform.

The Substitute. "It Is for that reason thta the mi nority of the committee on foreign relations has presented Hie substitute for tile preamble of the resolution," asserted Senator Lodge. "Not one sentence cun lie denied. Kach is a melancholy truth." Mr. Lodge said the first act under the resolution would he the taking of Vera t'ruz. "'' wr " engaged at this moment," Senator Lodge declared, "not only In dealing with a question Involving the gravest responsibilities that can con front tlu* congress lull, as not often happens, we are participating in a great historic action. Before the World. "The grounds for our action here today will lie before the world and will come to the tribunal of history. "If we are to intervene in Mexico at any point, 1 want It on broad, but tlclent grounds, I want to strip it of any personal character; to lift It up from the level of personal hostilities and place it on the broad ground of great national action taken In the Interest of and lor the protection of American lives In a foreign country and for the purpose also of restoring peace and order. If we can " "Paramount Importance." Senator Shively said the pending resolution was of "paramount import ance " "The attempted parallel between present proceedings and proceedings leading up to the declaration of war with Spain is futile," he said "It Is never too late to declare war; It may easily become too late to secure pesce Thst action was a declaration of war This resolution Is a good faith effort to preserve peace." He said the president did not ask congress tor "authority"' because lie did not wish to pursue a war. Mr Shively said that the lavdge preamble would have no result but war. Expedition Vital "Expedition here Is vital." said Senator Shively emphatically, because this In sn effort to preserve peace " "Would the seizure of Vera t'ruz. by force he an act of peace or an act of war?" asked Senator Brondegee. "It would not he an act of war," replied Mr Shively; "It would he an act of reprisal. On many occasions liss the United State* landed forces an 1 seized property and no war has ensued." Senator Shively Insisted the true complaint was of acts, not assaults or private persona or property, but acts that had all the evidence of be Ing meant as Insults to the United States government "It was a plain, deliberate assault on our uniform on all out navy stands for" said Senator Shively, referring to the Tampico Incident. "The situation In Mexico Is had | enough No one wtl dispute that. But here we arc rngugrd In an effort to THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. avoid yning further than la necessary and at the same time to impress upon thou- in authority that the dignity of the United States must he respected Danger to Thousands. Senator Shlveley said those “who had been clamoring for Intervention" had not thought of the danger to the thousands of American ctizens in Mexico. "I do not believe that the former administration trifled with this ques tion any more than the present one has. While I do not minimize what has happened in Mexico, I say it is a marvel in view of the character of that people, with 6(1.0(10 of our citizens there that we have escaped without a greater number of casualties," he declared. Declaration of War. Referring to the Lodge preamide. Senator Shively declared: "This j i reposed preamble would transform this resolution into a dec laration of war. If we are to make a declaration of war then let us make It. Let us not engage in the snivelling l’hurlseeism of citing facts which Justify war and instant war and then adopt these resolutions We are in the same breath to declare a halt dozen reasons why war should be de clared with Mexico ami in concluding the resolution declare our purpose not to do so. "There can be no question as to what the natural effect of that pre amble would be if addressed to any great power of the world. All the recitations of the resolves would be idle. Distinction Drawn, "There is n oeffort in this preamble to draw a distinction between thoa who are to blame and those who are not to Maine. It is a declaration of war in ttie preamble against the en tire Mexican pesple," continued Sen ator Shively. "You is thundering In the preamble ad whispering in the text. "While not minimizing the murders of American citizens in Mexico, I cer tainly cannot minimize that Insult de livered to our sailors at Tampico. The flag is not a tawdry plec of bunting. The uniform of our sailors stands for something. And If an incident like this can pass w ithout pressing demand for rep.nation there will be less se curity than ever for our citizens in Mexico. Tula preamble is out of Joint w Itli the resolution." Anxious for War. Senator Shively said that senators who are anxious for war may well wait until "this resolution is tried as a means of peace." "I submit that the reasons are many and solid, why this substitute should not he adopted," Senator Shively con tinued "It can do no good. It has a tendency to defeat the very' pur pose of tile resolution. It Is never too late to recite all those things If the last dread resort should come. But If we are to try to avoid a general armed conflict 1 contend It ts a bud thing to recite all your grievances." said Senator Shively. "ft is Idle to protest we are not going to war and at the same time make all the mo tions calculated to provoke open arm ed and genral conflict." Not Fully Civilized.
