La Colonia Espa1ola
Y SUS
Futuras pertenencias

El POGO tacto que Sc ha~ >empleado
para unir las voluntades de los compa
triotas, es la conversation del dia entire
ell elemento espanol.
Green algunos que no Sc hara la
union por carecerse de personals en6r-
gicas y de capacidad que consigan rea-
lizarla; y Green otros que Sc tropieza
con obstaculos tales que la haran i'm
possible.
Oimos q unos y q otros, y observa-
mos con verdadera pena que Sc conoce
POGO y Sc mira menos 10 que tanto
representa-.
Greer que Sc carecs de personals, es
un error: en- ell seno de la Colonia hay
personal muy 1til, no solo para llevar q
efecto su organization, sino para ele-
varla q la aleura de las primeras por
que ademas de personal, cuenta con
lelementos suficientes para desarrolar
la organization, hasta crear, sin mayo
res esfuer2os, todo 10 necesario.
Greer que Sc tropieza con obstaculOs
que haran impossible la union, es un
error mayor: esos obstaculos son ina
ginarios, solo podrfan admitirse calf
Ecandolos de pretensiones, y todos sa
bemOs 10 que es pretender.
Lo esencial para todos los compa-
triOtas, es tOmar una reSoluci6n inme-
data y formar la Colonia, y 81 es nece.
sario empl6ense las mayores energfas ;
porQue las colectividades como tOdos
los organisnos, cuando Sc encuentran
estacionadOs, necesitan una reacci6n
para que contin1en su marcha natural,
& impedirlo en- este case, serfa suicidac
moralmente la Oolonia, y ESQ no debe
mos en- ningdn tempo, nj pensarlo, nj
permitirlo.
En- primer termino, es necesario
apartar todo 10 que 70 sea propio para
que la formation de la Colonia sea una
verdad.
La Oo,onia ha de tener un Regla
mento exclusive para regirse. Pero
no por clio ha de entenderse, que no
ha de tener Centres que le pertenezean,
toda vez que tiene indispensablemente
que formarlOs para su natural progreso.
La Colonia necesita Centres de Be
nefcencia, de Recreo, de Union Mer-
cantil, de instruction. Para realizarlo
tiene en- la actualidad tornado, la Be
nefcencia en- ell Auxilio M1tuo, ell
Recreo en- ell Casino; solamente lie
falta formar la Camara de Oomercio, la
Lonja Mercantil y los Oentros de Ins

Los EstadOs Unidos
amigos de Russia

Creese generalmente que ell acuerdo
entire los Estados Unidos y Russia
acerca de la question de China, de que
tienen conocimiento los lectores por
nuestra secci6n telegrafica, ha sido un
golpe de teatro. Sc crefa que ell 60
bierno de Washington Sc entendfa con
ell de Londres; cuando, de pronto, vie.
ne esta sorpresa.
La explicaci6n mas admitida en- Was,
hington es la siguiente: Sc trata de
una maniobra electoral. Mr.. Hay, ell
Secretario de Estado, es ell mayor par
tidario de la amistad inglesa, que TO-
ment6 cuando era Embajador de Lon
dres. Esa amistad, y ell tratado re-
ciente, por ell que los Estados Unidos
han cedido q la Gran Bretana terrific
rio en- Alaska, no son populales y,
como esta impopularidad puede traer
malas consecuencias en- periodo electO
raj, sc ha operado esa viravuelta, de la
cual es principal autor Mr.. Root, ell
ministro de la Guerra, hombre astuto,
que sabe mucho de estos manejos.
A los ingleses ha causado asombro la
conducta de los Estados Unidos. Sc
alarmaran, al pensar que son fatales
las alianzas con una nac;6n que modifi
ca su polftica exterior con arreglo las
necesidades electorales del partido que
gobierra. Sc alegraran al considerar
que, despu6s de la election de Presi
dente, los EstadOs UnidOS vOlveran q
ayudar Inglaterra en- China ; a reserva
de declararse contrarios los intereses
de la Gran Breta1a cuando 10 exija una
election de Senador.
Pero hay mas en- este asunto: sPor
que es Unpopular la amistad con los in
gleSes y no 10 es la amistad con los ru-
SOS? Esa impopularidad Use debe-co
mo sc aice-a la cesion de tierras en-
Alaska, cesl6n que apenas ha agitado
al pueblo, apesar de las protestas de
algunos peri6dicos? Y 81 Inglaterra ha-
bla servido q esta rep1blica lno era
justo que Sc pagasen esos serviciOs7
So5re este punt0 Sc cuenta Ell la
Union que ell apoyo de Inglaterra
cuando los EstaGos Unidos dejaron q
Espana sin colonias, esta retribuido
con la toma de Filipinas para evitac
que estas cayesen en manos de poten
cias anti britanicas. Puede ser; pero,
entonces, 81 los ingleses estan Ell el Sc
creto Squ6 signi6ca esa irritaci6n que
reina en- Londress
Este golpe de teatro del Presideute
Nc. Kinley Sc parece & aquel otro ia
do con ell Mensaje respecto a Venezue
Ia. Tambien, entonces, ell gobierno de
Washington puso empeflo en- aparecer
hostil q Inglaterra. Ahora Sc repite
la suerte, despu6s de dos amos en- que
sc ha hablado de los lazos de la san
gre, de la solidaridad entire Clos dos
grandes pueblos de lengua inglesa",
etc. etc.
No falta, sin embargo, quien afirma
que no Sc trata de una maniobra elec.
toral; 81 no de un acto de saba polftica,
puesto que, los Estados Unidos, al pri
var a Inglaterra del 6nico aliado con
que podfa contar, evitan un confictC
