Excerpt from A Chapter of National Dishonor
It will be more than worth while to examine in the light of ethical princi le and international law, of recorded fact and diplomatic prece ent, of national honor and treaty pledge, these several state ments in which personal boasting, sweeping assertion, and a per fervid invoking of high morality are so interwoven. T 0 present individual character in its due disclosure will be something; but to see to it that history is not belied, and that the requirements of jus tice are not travestied, will be far more.
Certain fundamental considerations must be taken into account in any worthy discussion of the conduct of governments. First, that diplomacy now stands committed to the extending of the empire of law and the strengthening of an appreciation of public just ice. Second, that international Jurisprudence is based 011 the moral law and embodies the consensus of civilized peoples with regard to their reciprocal rights and duties. Third, that all nations stand on an equality of rights - the old and the new, the large and the small, monarchies and republics. It is, accordingly, in view of these con siderations, that the Panama imbroglio of 1903 is to be judged.
