A NEW SOVEREIGN STATE
The Republic Of the Acre, the Latest
Independent Government In
south Amerioa.

Probably there are not many people
who have heard Of the Republic of the
Acre. It is brand new state which has
arisen in South America in the last few
weeks. 1t owes its origin to the fact
that large part of the interior of South
America is a no-man's land, some parts
claimed by two or even three Of the re-
publics which have no clearly defined
limits.
A certain Rodriguez Aries happened
along, and determined to take advan-
tage of this state Of affairs. He was an
adventurer who had seen much of the
world, having been successfully bank
employe in Spain, theatrical manager
in the United States, clerk of works in
Paris, and broker in the Argentine
Republic. While in Buenos Ayres he
made the acquaintance of the gentle
men who are now his ministers of state.
Rodriguez Aries proclaimed a vast
territory bordering on Brazil and b.
livia as the Republic of the Acre, so
called from the river of that name, a
tributary of the Amazon, which flows
through it. The territory has an eX-
tent of some 5000 square miles and an
estimated population Of $4,000. 1t was
claimed by both Brazil and Bolivia, but
that did not matter to Rodriguez Aries.
He established his capital at small
village called Antimairi, appointed
his ministers and was ready for bust
ness. He calculates on raising revenue
from a royalty on the rubber gathered
in his territory, which depends princi-
pally on that staple for its commerce.
Rodriguez Aries is an intelligent.
wideawake man, apparently about so
years Of age. His face is Of decided
Spanish cast. with kindly looking eyes,
which beam on you through pair Of
gold-rimmed spectacles. From his ap-
pearance one might take him to be a
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1900-11-01

professional man, a lawyer or doctor.
Whether the new Republic of Acre
will take permanent place among the
family of nations remains to be seen.
1t may be noted that there are prosper
Gus states in existence to-day which
have arisen in the same manner as the
Republic Of Acre; among these may be
mentioned the Transvaal and the Or
ange Free State in South. Africa, which
were also established by adventures in
STAND, and are now of suffi-
cient importance to make no small noise
in the world.
The region of the Acre is one Of the
hottest and most healthful in South
America. II is also one of the richest
in rubber. which grows va in ~"
woui> IN great abundance. and those
engaged in the rubber trade can gen
orally calculate on making their for
tunes in four or five years if they es-
cape the malarial fevers and other dis
eases which dog the steps of the white
man in these ATTITUDES.
The territory of the Acre, or a por-
tion OF it, was granted not long ago to
an American syndicate by the govern
ment of Bolivia, which had very
doubtful title to it. The syndicate was
to build a railway and make other i'm
provements, but the project never came
to anything. owing partly to the dis
puted ownership Of the land, which led
to litigation. and finally resulted in the
proclamation Of independence already
referred ton. Y. Sun.
