Abstract

Our Treatment of Chili

October 29, 1891 issue

add to cart   close window

The despatch of the cruiser Boston to Chili with a flourish of trumpets, and the obscure hints about something very serious which are issuing from some of the departments, will make a good many people look forward with dread to the U.S. having a really powerful navy. The departure of the Boston is undoubtedly meant to produce the impression at home that something serious is impending in Chili, and that the mysterious somebody who now manages the State Department does not mean to "stand any nonsense," and to produce in Chili the impression that Americans should rather like a fight with that republic just now, when it is contending with a host of difficulties.
