LA VICTORIA, Venezuela, Nov. News
has been received here concerning the re-
treat OF the revolutionary forces. 1t is
to the effect that on the night OF Novem-
Der 1, the revolutionists withdrew from
their positions near La Victoria and San
Mateo because they were without ammuni-
tion. The fact that the rebels lacked cart
ridges caused a disagreement between GEN
eral Matos and General Rolaudo, which
was followed by hot words. General Ro-
lando declared that the shortage OF ammu-
milton was the fault OF Meneral Matos and
that II the success of the revolution was
endangered by this condition. General Ma
tos was alone responsible. He said all
was lost, and with his followers, about
1900 men withdrew from the main body In
the direction of Alta Gracia. 1t is reported
that General Rolando proclaimed ."El

revolution.

WHY SO SORE !?

No human action has ever been con-
ceived and accomplished, but that there
was some motive to pro onpt and suggest
it. In or daily intercourse and trans
actions with our fellow men, the first
thing which occurs to us is 'why did
Toaes do this?', or "what will Jones do
ne to-, /" Why did Brown do this when
h. mi ght have done that ?. Every
bra lch of human endeavor is born from
a motive to accomplish, any particular
objec-.
in all these Tetuan Street attacks
against the government of this island
ha, it ever occurred to anyone to ques-
tion the motives of their author? Has
anybody ever asked himself why this
attack on Judge Ramos was originally
begun, or why at this PARTICULAR
TIME the contest against him is
printed? Has anyone ever asked why
this sudden and startling opposition to
the protection of the peoples rights as

Company Is it a real desire to serve
the community which has prompted all
this? Is it political attack ? Is it
prompted by honest motives; or is it
suggested by desire for self aggrand,
ize lent and is the object which is
sought intimidation of the authorities? ?
We might start a guessing contest as
to why the scandalizer is so sore Or
We might say that Judge Ramos will

Yesterdays Injunction.

The most significant feature of the
injunction proceedings against the New
York and Porto Rico Steamship CON-
pany is not the fact that it is the first
injunction ever issued in Porto Rico, or
that it puts final check to the COM
pany's aggression, but it is in the ex-
cellent lesson which is furnished to
Porto Ricans, of the powers. and
strength of the American judicial
system. The jurispr 1dence which
places e ,vernments on almost the same
status as individuals or private corpora
tionS.
In American law all governments,
national, state or city are corporations,
and except in certain particular specified
cases, they must project their rights
by using the same process which any
individual must go through before he
can satisfy his claims or alleged rights.
Governments m lst prove their rights
in the same manner as the humblest
citizen
In most European countries, govern
mental claims are not enforced by
resort TO the Courts. The judicial
authority is not the paramount author
.i.y, bur is sabservien. to and under
the control of the government. Prop
efty claimeIs by the government is
owned by the government, because
the Court of law for the protection OF
,vernmental rights is d company of
soldiers or battery of artillery.
In applying 20 the San Juan District
Court the People of Porto Rio,
despite their power as a public cor
,oration, acknowledge that, no matter
how much convinced of their own
rights they may be, the otner fellow
may be equally as well convinced of
the justice of his cause. The claims
of both conflict. The Instlar author
tiles claim that the right to the water
front is theirs, and the company claims
that the right to the space covered by
the pier belongs to them. This is the|
only question at issue, and for the
proper adjudication of this question the
island has appealed to the proper
judicial authority for the protection of
its alleged rights.
Despite all statements to the contrary.
there has never been any question but
that the harbor of San Juan needs
some docking facilities. Whether these
facilities should consist of wharves or
a bulkhead has been a matter of con.
troversy. But no one in the govern
mental circle has ever denied that some
facilities were needed. On the contrary
much time has been spent in discuss
ing this all important suject, and in try
ing to solve the problem in satisfact-
ory way.
This present pier controversy is not
question between the insu1ar officials
and the commercial interests of the
island, on the contrary it is the insular
officials and the commercial interests
a.lisd against the alleged unlawful
encroachment of one single corporation.
No one should be allowed to make this
matter personal one for there is moth
ing personal ID i.
