SummaryResumen
Senator Morrill, speaking on President Grant's Santo Domingo policy, treats the commissioners' report with open skepticism, saying they praised the soil for producing bananas and pine-apples and were despondent about finding coal at Samana, where there is only a poor show of lignite. Their report, he argues, will be found neither more exhaustive nor more trustworthy than the works of impartial travelers who spent far more time on the island, and will be chiefly valuable for vindicating the personal integrity of the President and of the officer charged with negotiating the defeated treaty.
El senador Morrill, hablando sobre la política del presidente Grant hacia Santo Domingo, trata el informe de los comisionados con abierto escepticismo, diciendo que alabaron el suelo por producir bananas y piñas y que se mostraron desalentados por encontrar carbón en Samaná, donde solo hay una pobre muestra de lignito. Su informe, sostiene, no resultará ni más exhaustivo ni más digno de confianza que las obras de viajeros imparciales que pasaron mucho más tiempo en la isla, y será valioso sobre todo para vindicar la integridad personal del Presidente y la del oficial encargado de negociar el tratado derrotado.
