SoME time since the Department 81
State demanded The release of San
tos, naturalized American citizen,
who was imprisoned by the Ecua-
dorian Government on the charge Of
being connected with . revolution in
that country. No reply has Jet been
received from the President Of Ecua-
dor, and the representative Of the
United States in that country has
been requested to acquaint the au-
thorities here with the reason Of tho
delay in acknowledging this govern
ment's request. Santos has been inn
prisonment for a number of months,
his property having been seized prior
to his imprisonment. The authori-
ties here asked that he be given a
trial. This was refused. A request
FOR a release was also refused OF
late the Government Of Ecuador has
apparently ignored every request that
has been made by this government in
relation TO Santos.

voted a large portion Of his time for the last
five years to the advancement of popular

appropriations from the national treasury,
has not failed of effort in this direction on

before by any people. They have re-estab-
lished their old academies, colleges, and
professional schools for whites. on the whole

and in every state the pubic free school, for
all classes aud both races. has been estab-

within this period the south itself, out of ITS
