The question is: Shall we attempt to establish ourselves as a power in the far East and possess the Philippines for glory? . . .

[I]f we take the Philippines . . . they will yield us nothing, and probably be a source of annual expense. Certainly they will be a grievous drain upon revenue if we consider the enormous army and navy which we shall be forced to maintain upon their account. . . .
Whether the United States maintain its present unique position of safety, or forfeit it through acquiring foreign possessions, is to be decided by its action in regard to the Philippines.

Answer:

Among the options given on the question the correct answer is option C.

It will determine the future security of the nation.

Explanation:The war between America and Philippines took place in 1899 to 1902 and the result was the Philippines was taken under control of USA which made the fall of first Philippines Republic. The war arose while Spain decided to hand over Philippines to USA after the short Spanish-American war. However, the invasion of Philippines by America was strongly opposed by many anti imperialist of USA.

Andrew Carnegie was one of them. He said America was never founded on the basis of imperialism. America gained the independence from the British colonization. During the founding of United States there was no policy of imperialism to secure the safety of the nation.

Moreover, Philippines was far away from the United States which can never be an actual territory of USA.So, it would cost a lot of money to maintain the military cost there.  Again the people of Philippine would sought to fight against the US which would risk the safety of the nation.

So, the answer of the question is option C.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Pro slavery advocates believed slave owners had a right to transport slaves into the territories; antislavery advocates argued that this gave slave holding settlers an unfair advantage over non-slave holding settlers.

Pro slavery advocates argued that the slave status of Kansas should be determined by popular vote; antislavery advocates argued that Kansas should be free because of its location north of the 36° 30' parallel.  

Pro slavery advocates contended that free African Americans in Kansas should not be permitted rights under the state constitution; antislavery advocates argued that the federal constitution took precedence over Kansas’s state constitution.

Pro slavery advocates held that slavery in the state was legal, as established in the Missouri Compromise of 1820; antislavery advocates argued that this legislation was invalidated by the Supreme Court’s ruling on the Dred Scott case.
