Excerpt from American Supremacy, Vol. 1 of 2: The Rise and Progress of the Latin America Republics and Their Relations to the United States Under the Monroe Doctrine
Our people believe in justice, and in the liberty which carries the torch of civilization over the earth. They have always earnestly desired to see stable republics established in South America. They do not believe in monarchies. They believe in "a government of the people, by the people, and for the people." Our people enthusiastically upheld President Monroe when he declared that European monarchies should not extend their territory on American soil, and each succeeding administration, without exception, has striven to aid in the establishment, maintenance, and development of decent republican governments in these countries.
When our State Department has seen revolutions, anarchy, and crime rampant in South America, foreigners being looted, robbed, and murdered (Americans suffering worse than any other class), infamy, perfidy, intrigue, and scoundrelism covering Spanish America as with a pall, - it has not shut its eyes to the facts. On the contrary, no father ever watched over Ins wayward offspring with more care, sorrow, and anxiety than has the beneficent government of the United States observed these countries, studying by what means it could bring order out of chaos, decency out of crime.
For three quarters of a century this has been our policy, followed with patience and a spirit of philanthropy to which history affords no parallel. As one bandit government after another has appeared on the horizon of South America, our government has counselled it to exercise moderation, to walk in the paths of civilization, to respect the lives and property of foreigners; and we have stood between these so-called "governments" and the civilized powers of Europe.
In spite of all that our country has done for them, the incontestable fact remains that Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia, Santo Domingo, Hayti, and practically all of Central America are in a worse condition to-day, politically, socially, commercially, and deeper in barbarism, than they were three quarters of a century ago. Dilettante philosophers, reactionists who are against every policy which has made the United States the peerless giant which it is, will go on shouting in behalf of our "poor oppressed Sister Republics." On such people the facts stated in the following pages will have no effect.
