SummaryResumen
The *New York Herald* reported in April 1873 that annexing Santo Domingo would likely result in disappointment and questioned whether President Grant could guarantee the peaceable behavior of local inhabitants. The article argued that acquiring the island solely for a naval station is an extravagant burden and that annexation would only benefit New England manufactures if foreign commerce from Germany, France, and England were excluded.
*The New York Herald* advirtió en abril de 1873 que la anexión de Santo Domingo depararía hondos desengaños, poniendo en duda que el presidente Grant pudiese responder por la subordinación pacífica de los pobladores insulares. La publicación arguyó que apropiarse de la isla con el único propósito de instalar una estación naval constituía un gravamen desproporcionado, y que la adhesión del territorio solo reportaría provecho a las manufacturas de Nueva Inglaterra en el caso de proscribir el comercio con Alemania, Francia e Inglaterra.

Will President Grant answer lor the peaceable

in the mountains to get up a "revolution," what is
President Grant to do Put him down by fire and
sword and sow the dragon's teeth which Bhall

palm and banana trees? Annexation is an admi
rable thing in the abstract, but applied to this
island in a practical lorui win result in disappoint
