VALIOSA ADHESION
Manatf, Abril de 1900
Sr. don Luis Mu1oz Rivera.
San Juan.

Ilustre compatriota Perfsctamente
identi6cado con la polftica que sustents
ell partido federal, me complazco en-
msnifestarle que puede contar desde
hoy con un soldado mas en- las Gias
de ese Gbatallon de la patria1 que tan
dignamente usted acaUdilla.
Momentos son de prueba los presen-
tes para los patriotas p1ertorrqnefios;
para los puertorriquefios de verguenza; !;
para los que no saben nj pueden YER la
pretericiou de que somos obieto, por
parte del gobierno metropolftico, sin
sentir invadido ell rostro por olas de
sangre hirviente; caldeado por algo que
lpita en- todo corazoa generoso y
grande; ell sentimiento de la diguidad.
Como consecuencia l6gioa, momentos
diffciles son tambi6n los presentes para
el gran partido federal, ga que Ell, man
tiene enhiesta precisamente esa bandera:
la bandera de nuestra diguidad.
Ell partido federal rompe abieTtamen
te contra los enemigos de la patria pc
quefia; la protesta viril consignada
en- ell peri6dico formuada en- Ell dis
curso, vibra con energfas acumuladas,
rompe la atm6sfera meftfca que nos
asfxia salvando los mares arriba a
los pueblos civilizados. gfItandoles
I Ciudadauos libres Aha quedan
puertorriquefios con decoro!
La protesta Sc formuls sin miedo, sin
vacilaciones, contra ell gobierno milltar
de aquf, contra las decisiones arbitra-
rias de ALA, contra ell mundo entero, 81
es precise, 81 ell mundo entero danza
alegremente al rededor de un pueblo
que, por ser pequefo, muere sin que
hallen eco simpatico sus gritos de do
lor.
Momentoa diffciles para los patriotas.
Momentos de prueba para Ell partido
federal. Esos son los que 20 eIijo pa
"a decir listed: ilustre jefe: hay va
an soldado mas en- esss filas, siquiera
