And the train sways and rocks in its hurrying flight
Like demon which tears away from her side

Unconsciousy beautiful wondrously sweet!

No necestabam1s comentar ell telegram
que desde San Juan Sc diriji6 The Sun de
New York que publicamos en- nueetra edi-
cl6n del sabado.
TOdas las inexactitudes que encierra en- 10
referente las declaraciones hechas por los
hombres del DIrectorio federal en- su vista al
Gobernsdor, rectificadas quedaron por la in
terwle celebrada por ell senior Acuna con un
reporter del S IN JLG7l Ne,cs, por los artfcu-
los de LA DEMOCRACIA, MtQltaUeLtsm0 tnocen-
te Mus respeto Ia Uerddd.
Pero como de ese cable pudera la prensa
adversaria y aIgun descontento de nuestro
pArtido, sacar consecu ancias desfavorables pa
ra Ia politica noble patri6tica emprendida
por el DirectOro, bne1o es hacer constar que
SO engaf nan los que cream que nuestro partido
Vi la Fortale8a pedr mercedes gracias
incompatibles con digndad
En realidad, 10 que SO ha hecho, no es un
cambio de po'lti;a, ,sno ,un cambio de procedi-
mentos. Para 10 primero, era necesario que Sc
hubiese reformado la constitution del partdo
ESQ 10 podfa hacer ell Comite Directive,
sino ell psrtido en- masa, reunido en- Asambea
p1blica Ademas, nuestra pIataforma no
ha aterado en- NADIA. puesto que ell partido fe-
deral persigue hoy las mismss aspiraciones
que consig gnadas estan programs
Nuestro partido vic obligado, por cir
cunstsncias que ell pals conoce, tomar una
Rcttud retrafda, de alejamiento de los pode-
res p1blicos, no por malquerencia al gobier-
no, sino pCrque este no atendfa nuestras JUS
tsS reclamaclCnes; y cuando ocurre este IN
partido, no le queda mas camino digno, que
ell retraimiento de las esferas gubernamenta-
les de la NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. y ell de la franca
en6rgcs oposiciop.
v a ella fuimos, no por anti -amertcdntsmo,
como nuestros adversarios dieron en- la for &c
decir, sino porque-como dice Herminio DiaE-
Gse empuio nj Aventino.S
Pero nadie que sepa, sunqua sea superb
cialments, 10 que son partdoe polfticos, po-
dra afrmar que estos SO forman para vivir '
morir en- Ia Oposici6n eterna al gobleroo. Po-
dra alguna coectividad polftica, ma2tanerse
por muchos s1os en- ell retraimiento mas abso-
luto, porque asf se 10 aconseje su dignidad; Pc
70 dtspuesta siempre cuando desaparezcan las
csusas que clio le obigsran, & volver la lu-
cha, con las armas legales del consejo, de la
persuaci6n, del voto.
