Pese Mr.. Hunt y su clnica CANA

los datos Sc sobran la Prensa. eco ge-
nuino de la opinion publica, 10 reptile sin

Y probado esta. que. no solo en-
Puerto Rico sino que en- todas parties, la
miseria es uno de los elementos que mas
impulsan 81 crimen.
Sc necesita alguna educaci6n as1 CO.
mo buenos principles de moral para
veneer las tentaciones del robo, cuando
ell que las sufre Sc We sumido en- la mi
seria mas terrible sobre todo, cuando
encontrandose sano Y robusto para ell

honroso en- ell combate de la vida.
Z estos delitos, que al principle Sc
hacen por pura necesidad, despues 81
guen cometiendose por costumbre.
La prueba esta en- que Ia mayorla
de los prisioneros en- ell Preside y car
celes 10 estan por hurto: 406.
Si la agriculture, ell comercio la
industria foreciesen, seguramente que
disminuir1an.
Tai afrmaci6n Sc prueba as1 misma,
sin que Sc necesite demostrar.
ga La Policfa contribuye tambien
mucho al mayor n1mero de criminales-
Y no porque ella sea torpe eincom-
petente, sino por su escaso personal y su
NAL acordada distribution.
Antes de que los republicanOs CO.
menzasen manejar por entero ell Gotta
rro, la polic1a, que entonces no alcanza-
ba ell n1mero que hoy alcanza, satlsfa-
c1a mucho mejor su cometido.
Pero entonces, en- vez de tener CO.
mo hoy Sc tiene esa policfa reconcen-
trada en- las poblaciones, Sc la distribuia
por los campos en- donde, seguramen-
te era Y es mas necesaria su presencia.
En- los pueblos ciudades bastaba
con la naumac5pdJ;' pero los republica-
nos conven1ales tener .fueTsG armada en-
esos mismos pueblos ciudades para

tando de su co1aUenae7acsG ell abandono

| rurales de nuestras lsia,
7 si de la polic1a insular en- las po-
blaciones no Sc puede prescindlr Sporque
no Sc aumenta ell n1mero de guardias
para que presten ambos servicios2
Este es un problema facil de resol-
yer Y que nuestros delegados estan en-
la obligation de trataF en- Ia pr6xima
Legislature.
Hay que buscar de todos modos los
medios precisos para combatir Ia crimi-
nalidad en- la isla, evitando que sc pudra
por complete nuestra entidad moral, va
que por 10 que Sc We, son pocos los pre-
sidios Y las carceles.
Nosotros creemos que sobre este
punto vale Ia pena de pensar.

She recently came up from the South
american coast, and has been in Hamn-

twin-screw gunboat of the most modern
German type. having been constructed
at Dan'zlg IN 1890. The vessel has a
length OF about 900 feet and carries
three hundred men. Her main battery
consists OF eight 5 or 6-inch riaes.
The Panther has had a most in,e,es,.

years. Last September she sank the Hay.

selzng the cargo OF German steamer.
When Germany, England and Italy went
out to collect debts from Venezuela the
past winter. the Panther was placed on
blockade duty off Lake Maracaibo. which
was guarded by Fort San Carlos.
While the negotiations of the powers
were at a strained and critical point the
Panther, on January 18th last, lombard
ed the tort. Whether the warship or the
fort began the attack has been matter
OF controversy. The VeneIuelans stated
that the Germans desired to capture the
gunboat Mirado in Lake Maracaibo. The
Panther used twelve guns and the fort
hTed 40 shells. Alter an hour of bonn
oardment the Panther withdrew.
On January 2Ist the Panther, Vaneta
and Fake renewed the attack on the
tort, and the Panther, being the lighter
draught vessel of the three. steamed In
TO within hve hundred yards of the fort.
Inc Fanther was firing a gun every
minute and the fort was invisible for
smoke. The village of San Carlos was
soon afame. Next day the three ships
bombarded San Carlos all day, The
walls OF the fort were battered and torn
and covered with pieces OF broken shells.
Within the fort were found twelve
dead and fifteen wounded men. Shortly
afterwards the blockade was raised and
the questions at issue left to arbitration.
The Panther will leave some time this
week, It is thought. for Baltimore, where
she will remain during the Saengerfest 10
