BoletiÌn mercantil de Puerto Rico. (San Juan, P.R.) 18??-1918, 1877-12-23

Nos escriben de Yabucoa que ell
viernes 4 se presentaron como d las
diez de la noche dos hom5res lla-
mando 4 la puerta de un vecino,
quien, habiendolos visto por una
ventana, sospecho de ellos y llamo d
sus hijos. Los visitantes huyeron.
En- la noche del II Sc presentaron
otros dos individuos entire Z y s, en-
otra casa en- despoblado { quizas Sc.
rian los mismos) y entrandose por IA
puerta, que estaba alberta. amenaza-
ron de muerte con dos revolver al
dueilo de la misma 81 no les daba ell
dinero que suponian tenia por haber
vendido unos novillos pocos dias an
tes. Ell amenazado, por salvar la
vida, les entrego sus llaves, y les
guio al ropero y no hablendo en-
contrado mas que ocho 8 diez pesos,
tornaron intimarle disparando un
tiro al aire ;; y como en- realldad no
tenia mas dinero, como los ladrones
pudieron yer, puesto que echaron
afuera cuanto contenian los baules y
ell ropero, les ofrecio un documento,
que ellos rehusaron por tenor de
comprometerse. La esposl y ninos
del asaltado, tambien amenazados 81
gritaban, estaban aterrados. AL fin
Sc marcharon llevandose algunas frio-
leras y ofreciendo volyer matarlos
81 daban parte de 10 ocurrido. No
falto quien los viera impusiera del
caso 4 la autoridad, y esta hora Sc
les persigue con grandes probabilida-
des de preuderlos.
Tambiea Sc nos habla de varios
hurtos de reses ocurridos en- aquella
jurisdiction.
Sc supone que estos rateros y cna-
treros salgan de algunos individuos
de ievita que, sin trabalar nj rentas
conocidas, suelen vivir en- los pueblos
como 81 fueran ricos.
Precise es que las autoridades To-
Gales pongan 4 buen recaudo d los
vagos para evitar hechos como los
que Sc nos participant de Yabucoa, y
para cumplir con 10 que les tiene
mandado la Autoridad.

which you are all familiar. Let us
shake off these "drowsy powers" and

With strict adherence to those prin-

rs party and as liberal minded
people we need live paper, with a

is alive to the interests Of our party,
for am strong in the faith that
Whatsoever is of interest to the Dem
ocratic party, inures to the good and
best interests Of the whole people Of
the county. Ny faith is founded
upon the happy days Of the Repub-
lie under Democratic rule, when the
county CT Preston presented one
solid, unbroken phalanx of sturdy
Democrats. A time to which we re.
fer with feelings of pleasure and
long to live over those days Of un-
Parallelled prosperity as a nation,
and happiness as a people.
We need man who will do wal

the ARGUS. But word to our
Democratic friends: Now, that the
WEST VIRGIEIA ARGUS is to be the
organ Of our party, let rs as ftisnds
Of good government be not unmind-

II ia within our province to make
the paper grand success, or to make

hold up the hands Of its editor as
did Aaron and Hur the hands Of
