Spain. This first rebellion was put down
after a short guerrilla war. Several
abortive attempts TO drive the Spaniards
from the island followed towards the
middle of the century. But they served
only as a sign of the discomfort in the
hearts of the people.
This discomfort still exists. The taxes
imposed by Spain are burdensome and
are raised by duties on exports as well
as by imports and by a series of petty
personal taxes, such as none but a spir-
itless people would willingly stand. These
include stamped paper, toll on railroad
passengers and freight and even on the
consumption of food.
The alien oficeholders drain the colony
of its public money. Their domineering
manners and high-handed actions have
brought upon them the hatred Of natives.
They come TO the province with the sin
gle object of making money and their
venality has corrupted the public service
to such an extent that bribery Is now
necessary in procuring a decision IN eV-
cry court of justice.
