Excerpt from Speech of Hon. George Gray, of Delaware: In the Senate of the United States, April 14, 1898, in the Cause of Humanity

Mr. President. I did say with some emphasis, because it came from my heart. That I was here, as I conceive my duty as an American Senator to be, to support in this grave crisis of our country's history an American President, chosen by the American people for the very purpose that he is now seeking to carry out and achieve.

Mr. President, there is no need that I should occupy the time of this Senate in making, or in attempting to make, a speech. If I were capable of it, that would merely have a tendency to excite the feelings of the American people or my colleagues here if they needed such excitement. We do not need to lash running horses. We all agree - of course I know we all agree- in the patriotic in tent and purpose to support our country and stand loyally by it in this hour of trial, but I want to put, in these few brief hours before final action is taken, for myself and for others who may think that what I say is worthy of attention the case of my coun try upon grounds so high, as I conceive them, that all the world must approve them.
