Excerpt from Lectures on International Law by Cushman K. Davis: Before the Faculty and Students of the University of Minnesota, October, 1897 I appear before you this afternoon for the pur pose of paying a small installment upon that debt which Francis Bacon said every man owes to his profession. I shall speak from very brief notes and you must not expect any symmetrical or labored ad dress. The subject is one of great extent and com plexity; it is also of daily and surpassing interest in the increased intimacy of national intercourse. Nations far remote now touch one another Where formerly they had no point of contact. Intelligence is conveyed more speedily than if it were borne upon the wings of the morning. Relations of all kinds, social, monetary, political and commercial occur with hourly frequency. Under such conditions the interest of any State in its international affairs be comes exceeding important. Indeed, you cannot look at any daily paper without seeing how frequent and various these international questions have be come. This morning the question is whether the United States is bound to return Senorita Cis neros, who was recently released from a Spanish prison by the enterprise of a newspaper correspond ent. We also see that Costa Rica has declared war against Nicaragua, where we have that large inter est, the Nicaraguan Canal, created by contracts of our citizens with those governments. With the United States the question is, what effect this warwill have upon our relations with those States, in view of our rights in that great enterprise. So that I am justified in saying that our international interests are of daily increasing recurrence and im portance. Another characteristic of the relations of our Government to other powers is this Whatever may be the distractions of party and the vicissitudes of political ascendency in our internal affairs, it is a maxim of this Government that, whatever party may be in power, the continuity of our foreign inter course and policy should never be broken. That maxim has seldom been infringed upon and when ever it has been disregarded it has been to our detriment.
