Causes of the Spanish- American War (1898) 107 explained by the fact that there was in this country the fear that the freedom of slaves in Cuba, following her inde- pendence from Spain, would set the South on fire; which, indeed it would have done. To quote Berrien, of Georgia, in a debate in Congress at this time : "When we look to the situa- tion of those islands, to the commanding position they oc- cupy with reference to the commerce of the West Indies, we cannot be indifferent to a change i...n their condition. But when we reflect that they are in juxtaposition to a portion of the Union where slavery exists that the principle of uni- versal emancipation must march in the van of the invading force, and that all the horrors of a servile war will too surely follow in its train these merely commercial consid- erations sink into insignificance. . . . We cannot allow their (European) principle of universal emancipation to be called into activity in a situation where its contagion from our neighborhood would be dangerous to our quiet and safety.
