A FILLIBUSTER MANIFESTO.
The San Diego California; Herald of the Sd
December contains the following Address of the
leader of the freebooting expedition which recently
invaded the territory Of Mexico and committed vio-
lence on some Of its people:
TO the People of the United States.
In declaring the Republic of Lower California free,
sovereign and independent deem it proper give the
people of the United States the for the step
have taken.
guarded the independence Of the American States to de-
clare why another representative is created on the me
diate confines of the Union.
The Mexican Government has for long time failed to
perform its duties to the province Of Lower California
Cut off the territory was by the treaty of Guadalupe
Hidalgo, from oil direct communication with the of
Mexico the central authorities have manifested little
interest in the affairs Of the California peninsula The
geographical position Of the provinces is such make
it certainly separate and distinct in its interest from the
other portion of the Mexican Republic. But the moral
and social ties which bound it Mexico have been even
weaker and more deporabe than the physical. Hence
to deyelope the resources of Lower California and
effect proper social organization therein it was neces
sary to make it independent.
The mineral and pastoral wealth of Lower California
naturally very great but to properly develope it there
must be good government and protection to labor
and property Mexico is unable to furnish these requ
sites for the growth and prosperity of the peninsula
The territory, under Mexican rule would forever remain
wild, half savage and uncuvated covered with an ndo-
lent and half civilized people desirous of keeping all
eigners frsm catering the limits Of the State.
When the people Of territory fail almost entirely to
deveope the that nature has placed at their
command the interest of civilization requires others to
go in and possess the land They should they
be allowed to play the dog in the mangern and keep
others from possessing what they have failed to occupy
and appropriate.
Mexico has not performed any of the ordinary duties
Of Government towards the people Of Lower California
She has established no and ready of commun
cation for the people among them the world
nor has she undertaken to protect them from the
wandering robbers who nfest the territory Thus aban
doning the peninsula and leaving it it was waf
the waters, Mexico cannot complain if others take it
and make it valuable.
On such considerations have l and my companions in
arms acted in the have pursued And for the
success Of enterprise put our trust in Him who
controls the destines of nations and guides them in the
ways Of improvement and progress
