Date Original	1902-07-03
Contained Text	Sen. Nelson; Support the McKinley policy in behalf of Cuba, Roosevelt; in the case of Cuba there are weighty reasons of morality and of national interest why the policy of reciprocity should be held to have peculiar application; we are bound by every consideration of honor and expediency to pass commercial measures in the interest of the material well being of Cuba - President Roosevelt to Congress, December 3, 1901; the question as to which, if any, of the different schedules of the tariff might most properly to be revised must not enter late into the matter in any way or shape; we are a wealthy and powerful nation; Cuba is a young republic, still weak, who owes to us its her birth, whose whole future, whose very life, must depend on our attitude toward her; I ask that we help her as she struggles upward along the painful and difficult road of self governing independence - President Roosevelt to Congress, June 13, 1902; we cordially indorse the able and patriotic administration of President Roosevelt; we are proud of his manly courage, his purity and his devotion to the interests of the whole country, and pledge him the earnest support of the Republicans of Minnesota in all his efforts to continue and advance the prosperity of the people at home and the glory of the republic abroad; we indorse the policy of reciprocity as defined by President Roosevelt in his annual message; we favor reciprocity with Cuba, urged by President Roosevelt, by a plan which shall insure the profitable exchange of commodities, help Cuban people needing assistance, but the chief benefits of which shall not enrich trusts, monopolies or foreign speculators, or which shall not interrupt our home production -- Minnesota Republican State Platform, July 1, 1902
