iIMPUTACION? I :?

Hace algunos dias insertamos una
communication suscrita por don Salvador
Brau, en- la que 81 apreciable compane-
TO ped1a ingresar en- el cuerpo de vo-
luntarios con el objeto de ser un defen-
sor mas en- esta antilla, del 0Jden Ia
iRtegrjdad ndciona{.
Copiamos dicho. documento de un re-
remitido suscrito por el senor Bulls
~ Pagan, y aunque no teniamos motives
para dudar de la palabra de este caba-
Hero, supusimos que Ia solicitud era
apocrifa, fundandonos en- las siguientes
razones:
Primera. Que el senor Brau, en- su
larga carrera de escritor politico, jamas
hab1a confesado que hubiera perteneci-
do 4 la patti6tica colectividad. A la Wis
Ia tenemos su articulo En- plen0 Iu=,
articulo en- el cual hace la historic de su
vida Y la relaci6n de los meritos Ell ella
contraidos, para poder aspirar al titulo
de espanol. Y ninguna OCCASION mas
propicia que aquella para declarar que
hab1a pertenecido al institute de volun-
tarios, hecho que por 81 solo le hubiera
acreditado de terUor0sO espa1Ol alejan-
do de su persona todo g6nero de sus-
picacias.
Segunda. Porque el senor Brau, en-
brillantfsimos editoriales, combatio al
senior Cepeda, tratando de convencer a
nuestros correEgionarios de que dicho
escritor no podia ser enthusiastic autono-
mista porque habia sido voluntario en-
Cuba
Tercera. Porque ell senior Brau ha
declarado EN- infnidad de articulos que
el cuerpo de voluntarios es un partido
polftico armada que Ell Puerto-Rico no
t1ene razon de ser porque aquf JAMAs
peligraron ell Ordep ni 10 j4ategyidad nacio-
nal.
Cuarta. Porque en- 1870, fecha de la
communication, 81 bien el partido liberal
no estaba organizado en- Puerto-Rico con
bases claras y precisas, las ideas liberia
les Sc habian extendido por el pals apo
derandose del cerebrO de los puertorri-
quenos instruidos, y en- aquella 6poca el
senor Brau era va Gterato ilustrado que
habia escrito dramas en- que palpitaban
el amor Ia hbertad Y el odio La tira-
MIA, sentimientos incompatibles con la
idea que di6 impulse al cuerpo de vo-
luntarios en- esta antilla.
Cre1amos que estas razones nos daban
derecho para suponer apocrifo dicho do
cumento, y por ESQ exhortamos 4 .Et Cla-
NOR para que nos sacase de dudas; pues
81 blen reconocemos todos lor servicios
prestados la causa liberal por Ia plu-
ma yiril del competente companero,

en- ell fondo de vuestro coraz6n aprobais mi
conducta, amada mia.
No respondio esta, porque, efectivamente,
La aprobaba, pero no podia dejarle morir de
aquella manera, nj abandonarle cuando Ia de-
cfa que antes de que pasase l1r cuarto de bora
habria muerto, casi equival1a a armar su brazo.
-iMuramos juntos, Pablo mfo!-dijo apo
yandose en- el hombro del ioven V acercando

Pablo estaba anonadado no saba que decir.

SHOTGUN AND LOTTERY.

Congressman John Allen of Missis-
sippi. referring TO tbs intimidation OF
the celored voter in the shotgun dis
tricts OF the south, jocularly said:
I'VE IRE the guns 30 as to give notice
that q free and fair election was about
to be held" While it is gratifying to
know 10 fatalities occurred during
Tuesdays election. il is distressing to
be ever confronted with instances Of
fraud and intimidation now 60 CON-
mon as to excite only levity. The
highest privilege Of an American citi-
zen, be he white or coloTed, ought to
be priced 20 highly that any, even the
least, impediment put IN the way of its
free exercise should excite the indigna-
ton of all. With these shameful IN
stances. it is announced that Foster.
the anh-lottery democratic candidate,
- elected. This is to intensity and
emphasize the disgraceful FRAUDS which
have been reported from Louisiana. A
rebuke of the shotgun policy was
hoped for. A condemnation of the
lottery octopus was expected, but a
condemnation Of the shotgun policy
would have been more gratifying.

coRRECTs ruE ERROR.

Rep0rtorlal enterprise sometimes
yets the better OF editorial caution, and
On article gets into print that may be
,olered to suit the fancy of the re-
porter rather than to accurately st the
facts. Ii appears that the report of
the proceedings OF the Division Street
Methodist church trustees, which ap-
pesred Tuesday morning, was so drawn
as 70 reflect upon the pastor, q gentle
man highly esteemed for his candor
and plety. II unfortunate that the
reporter was denied admission TO the
meeting. where be could have secured
an accurate report of the proceedings.
II IS still moro unfortunate that the re-
port sscribed to the pastor sentiments,
which IL uttered. were uttered by some
body else. Elsewhere q communica-
cation appears from the trustees, in
which il is admitted that the questions
set forth in Tuesday mornings article
were discussed, but that the pastor
took no part in the same, and tina, they
were net properly connected. II fol-
lows that the reporter was mistaken in
ascrieing TIE utterances to the pastor
when they we're made by one or more
Of tbs trustees In spirit of true
Christian charity, realizing that mis-
takes are apt to happen ia all things of
life. the trustees seek TO correct the
error and remove the imputation upon
their beloved pastor. TIE HERALD
