Durante la cOnferencia que sOstu-
vimos con el, hemOs sabidO que ell
senior Munoz Rivera lleva a Washing
ton dos ilnpOrtantisimaS misiOnes.
En- virtud de la una, reclamara me-
didas protectors que favorezcan la

rriquenos en- los Estados Unidos, arti
culOs que, como es sabidO, quedarOn
sin mercadO desde la cesi0n de aque-
liza isla pOr ell gObierno espanol la

En- virtud de la Otra, sc eSfOrzara
por mantener la personalldad de Puer

gobierno propio, que va ejercio en-
los ultimOs dias de la domination es-
panola. ~. 80.
Las reclamaciones ecOnomicas del
|senor Munoz Rivera no pueden ser
mas legitimas, porque al tirmarse ell
tratadO de paz, Puerto Rico perdiO,
como Sc ha dicho, los mercadOs de
Espana y de Cuba y debe cOmpensar-
|sele, so pena de que SUI agriculture Sc
arruine por complete.
Las reclamaciOnes pOllticas no pue-
den tampoco ser mas justas; entire
varias razones de gran peso, pOrque
aquel pals poseia una carta contitu
cional, un regimen autonomico, y pa
rece cruel privarlo de las ventajas
que gozo EN- plena paz, sin darle en-
cambio un sistema mejor Q igual GUAM
do menOs.
Ademas, en- Puerto Rico no existio
nunca la guerra, y nada hay que jus
tifique la prolongacion del gObierno
miltar.
Celebraremos que ell senior Munoz
Rivera, quien de nuevo saludamos
cOrdialmente pOr medic de estas IL
meas, obtenga ell exito mas satisfac-
torio en- sus gestiones.
