SummaryResumen
The Topeka State Journal continued President Taft's address, noting that five years of treaty operations in Santo Domingo had eliminated insurrections by placing customs houses under American protection. Taft highlighted that 55 percent of customs collections provided unprecedented domestic revenues while 45 percent went toward debt extinction, reducing costly American naval patrols to a minimum. He urged applying the Dominican model to resolve chronic revolutions and financial distress in Honduras and Nicaragua.
The Topeka State Journal prosiguió con el discurso del presidente Taft, destacando que cinco años de vigencia del tratado en Santo Domingo habían desterrado las insurrecciones al colocar las aduanas bajo amparo estadounidense.

UU. Instó a aplicar el modelo dominicano para poner término a las revoluciones crónicas y la angustia fiscal en Honduras y Nicaragua.

"Subsequently a treaty with Santo
Domingo embodying these features was
ratified by the senate, and has now
been nearly five years in successful
operation. The revenues have been d
vided, some 40 or 45 per cent applied
toward the extinction of the national
debt of Santo Domingo, and the re
mainder of 55 per cent constituted a
revenue for the country greater than
it ever had before, in its-history.
"The Santo Dominicans have been
well served in the collections of their
customs' by experienced and honest
Americans recommended by this gov
