Excerpt from What of the Hour? Is It Peace or War?: Speech of Hon. James A. Norton, of Ohio, in the House of Representatives, Wednesday, March 16, 1898Mr. Chairman: It is not requisite that I should apologize to the House for not speaking directly upon the bill before us. The dis cussien of the past two days has shown the broadest latitude given, and a wide range allowed to Speeches upon any subject that might bear upon the best good of the American nation. I do feel, however, that I should brie¿y state why I shall address myself to the consideration of a bill that may come before this House at the conclusion of the discussion of the present bill. I refer to House bill N o. 8618, presented by Mr. Boutelle of Maine, and which is for the relief of the sufferers by the destruction of the U. S. S. Maine in the harbor of Habana, Cuba. I fear that it may be impossible for me to be present upon this ¿oor when the bill comes up for consideration, and I desire to place myself upon record as to my attitude upon the measure.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
