IMPORTANTE SOBRE ELECTORES.

Incomprensible es 10 que, sin duda
por disposition del Gobierno de S. M.
esta pasando con la formation de lis
tas para electores de diputados a
Cortes.
En- la 4aceta del de febrero Sc
mandaba, entire otras cosas, por la
regla 81 de la circular del 5, que las
antiguas listas que Sc hab1an fjado
para diputados a C6rtes sirviesen de
base para las nuevas. Por la regla
"a Sc preceptu6 que hasta ell IA ma
da mas oirlan las comisiones inspec-
toras las reclamaciones sobre inclu-
sion 6 no inclusion de electores. Y
como en- la Capital Sc 6jaron las nue.
vas listas ell 20 del corriente, resul-
a:-lo Que las personas que en-
las primeras listas que Sc pusieron
al p1blico hasta ell IA Sc vieron in
cluidas en- elias no han tenido mott
vo para reclamar.-2o Que de las
omisiones en- las nuevas listas de-
puradas en- que no constan sino
los que pagan rs pesos de contri-
bucion directa y los que tienen tltu-
10 Official academico, fijadas ell 20, no
es possible reclamar ante la Go.
mission que, segun 10 dispuesto por
ell Gobierno, desde ell IA, es decir,
desde ell dia en- que las anteriores
listas Sc qultaron de la vista del p1-
blico, y antes de conocer las nuevas,
no puede entender de reclamacio-
nes de ningun genero, y solo cabe
la apelacion, hasta ell "A, ante ell
juez de la instancia, segun la regla 5a
Mas como "a apelacion 8 recurso en-
queja no cabe sino despues de ha-
Der resuelto ell inferior, 8 sea, la CO.
mission, que ha de enviar al juzgado
ell expediente sobre la question en-
litigio, y a la comision lie esta veda-
do, no por la Ley electoral sino por
el Gobierno, decidir desde ell IA,
y antes del IA nj a1n en- los 5 dias
siguientes, no podfa saber un elector
81 estaba 8 no include en- las listas
de6nitivas que Sc tijaron ell 20, re-
sulta que nj ell juez de Ia instancia
puede fallar sin DIR al inferior, nj en-
cuatro dias tiene nadie tempo para
saber 81 Sc lie ha eliminado 6 Nc de
las listas nj sabe a quien acudir en-
demanda de Justicia.
Un case concrete ilustrara mejor
este asunto. Un individuo, que es
elector por dos conceptos, como con-
tribuyente y como capacidad, Sc vic
en- las listas que Sc exhibieron hasta
ell IA. Retir6se tranquilo porque
creia reconocido su derecho. Mas
he aqu1 que aver supo que ha sido
eliminado de elias porque, habiendo
comprado ell establecimiento de que
es propietario en- julio de 1876, Sc

EF 7ANCHE De LA ADUANA.

E5 limo. Sr. Intendente, de acuer-
do q lel Gobierno, esta estudiando
Ia 81 inera de agrandar ei edifcio en-
que esta la aduana de la Capital.
Innegable es la necesidad de esta
reGoraa. Desde 1916 en- que Sc hi
40 el dltimo verdadero ensanche del
edi6cio, con ligeras variaciones, per-
manece en- ell mismo estado. va
desde 1860 vienen clamando los ad-
ministradores de aquella dependen-
cia por que Sc construya un local que
baste al buen servicio de la Hacien.
da y del comercio la psimera nece.
sta espacio para poder reconocer los
bultos, y el segundo 10 necesita tam.
bien para no sufrir las frecuentes
averfas que sufre con ell amontonal
las mercaderfas, muchas de elias que
bradizas, como 81 fueran pacas dc
/ heno.
"A consecuencia de la Real orden
de 5 de mario de 1866 en- que Sc hi
20 una re5aja de 6 p.% sobre la'
importaciones directas, Ell concrete
de Puerto-Rico, reducido hasta en-
t6nces q la costosa tutela de Sar
Thomas, cobr6 un vuelo inesperado
como Sc demuestra por las siguien'
tes cifras.

En- el mismo aao de 1916 entraron
en- este puerto 325 buques con 33, ,39l

En- 1877 entraron 472 barcos con
l74,767 toneladas y salieron 444 con

DO local hoy que en- lS45, es tan ha-
cedero como 81 4 un hombre de 25
amos Sc le quisiera adaptar la misma
ropa que usaba cuando ten1a diez
Queda, pues, fuera de duda la nece-
sidad perentoria que hay de agran-
dar la aduana.
81 bien esta dependencia es sus-
ceptible de un ensanche por la parte
del Este que equivalga proximamen.

vivir en- la aduana para vigilar a to-
das horas las mercader1as y valores
encomendados 4 su cuidado. Para
que la obra responda, pues, a las ne
cesidades presentes y q las futuras
menester es que la aduana tenga

The 5O-4 Ably Advocated,

1t was quite gratifying to the friends
of the 80 4 compromise of the State
debt to see so large and representative
an audience as was assembled at the
court house at one O'Clock yesterday TO
hear the speeches of Senator jos. E.
Bailey, OF Clarksville, and Major A.
81. Petubone, of Greeneviie, on that
important and all absorbing subject.
The two speakers being members of
the opposing political parties, Senator
Bailey being one Of the leading
lights of Tennessee Democracy, and
their most favored United States
Senator; and Msj. Pettibone being the
most prominent and talented orator in
the Republican party in the State,
added additional interest. and served
to draw out q crowd which pretty we'll
filled the Criminal Court room, and
the crowd was made up of citizens ir-
respective of party lines or natiHnaH'
ties. ~ --.
The first speaker was Senator Bal
ley, he being introduced by Col. J. w.
Gaut, aud he was followed by Maj.
Pet;ibone Each occupied about
one hour and quarter, and
both speeches were able, elo-
quent and convincing arguments
in favor of the acceptance at the polls
on the 9TH of August of the 504 COM
promise. Both speakers said this was
not their choice, but it is certainly the
best course that can be pursued under
the circumstances, and to vote it down
would be looked upon as downright
reputation, by outsiders especially.
Cte speeches elected frequent ap-
plsuse, were listened to very attentive
ly to the end, and seemed to create a
! favorable impression which will no
| doubt tell at the polls on election day.

look into the case, learned the fact
that McKoen was off the steamer

On the 26sh Or. Vanderpoel re-

very weak, and at the same time the
doctor, with manly candor declared
his inability TO decide whether Nc
Koen had yellow fever or not. The
fact is, as q physician viewing the
symptoms presented by the patient,
to DR.. Vanderpnel, but, as health
officer of the ,.0rt, bound to support
the dignity of quarantine. ana sns-
tain the propriety of heavy droughts
on public treasury to retain the ex-
peBsiveness of such arrangements he
found in McKnen, and his habit on
the steamer Merida, from q foreign
port, subject fitted to the purpose,
and material for a fine sensation at q
time when the deniZens of the great
metropolis were gaspiDg in heat and
thirsty for something unusual, and
newspaper reporters were weary III
their search after the wberewithai to
supply the demand. MeRoen had
yellow fever, because be had served on
the steamer Merida, ship which
had been cleared at quarantine, be-
cause she proved herself clean.
