Andrew Carnegie：Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie, Additional Excerpt 561

War was declared--the Senate being shocked by Senator Proctor's statement of the concentration camps he had seen in Cuba. The country responded to the cry, "What is Spain doing over here anyhow?" President McKinley and his peace policy were left high and dry, and nothing remained for him but to go with the country. The Government then announced that war was not undertaken for territorial aggrandizement, and Cuba was promised independence--a promise faithfully kept. We should not fail to remember this, for it is the one cheering feature of the war.
