Only two courses are now open--one the establishment of a protectorate by the United States, and the other annexation full and complete.
I felt that the honor of our country and of the Navy had been touched, and that nothing was left to us but, in a quiet and dignified and yet firm way, to insist upon suitable redress.
I have felt that it was not only essential as a matter of national defense, but that there was a prestige and influence for peace and good neighborhood between the nations of the earth in the completion and equipment of these great ships…
I have felt great interest and enthusiasm in the rebuilding of the American Navy.
