McKINLEY VS. HOAR. THE PRESIDENT ANSWERED BY THE SENATOR ON VARIOUS POINTS OF THE PHILIPPINE CONTROVERSY. [FROM THE NEW YORK EVENING POST, SEPT. 27, 1900.].
[New York: 1900]. Narrow folio broadside, 4-1/4" x 20-3/4." Old folds, a couple of shallow closed margin tears repaired. Very Good.
The debate between President McKinley and Senator Hoar focused on American imperialism, particularly in the Philippines. After conclusion of the Spanish-American War, President McKinley decided to annex the Philippines in order, he says here, "to bring the benefits of liberty and good government to these wards of the nation... not for exploitation, but for humanity and civilization." Hoar accuses McKinley of "purest ruffianism and tyranny."
