to his authority solely through fear
HE has been President two terms, and
would like to be reelected at he next cleo

feeling Of dissatisfaction is kept in check
and prevented from assuming formidable
proportions BECAUSE it is known that DiaZ
could easily suppress any movement Dor

Tile President is man of prompt and de-

General Roja with detachment of soldiers
to capture bandit named Cara, who had
long been the terror of the border residents.
