Our country, our whole country, and nothing but our country" has been the watchword and creed of my public life.
It was settled by this war that we have a country limited in its powers by the constitution of the United States fairly construed.
What I have written is no doubt clouded with partisanship, but I would not be honest if I did not express my attachment to my party.
If my life is prolonged I will do all I can to add to the strength and prosperity of the United States, but nothing to extend its limits or to add new dangers by acquisition of foreign territory.
