Causas y concausaEs diversas--
entire las que figuran ell huracan
de San Ciriaco Y los incendios que
devastaron las fincas cafeteras a
raiz de la Observation-Disclosures
4 la ruina casi total de los coseche-
ros del rico grano, ocasionando de
rechazo graves perjuiciOs a los CO.
merciantes refaccionistas.
De cuatro amos a esta parte la
situaci6n ha lido de NAL en- peor,
amenazando anular por complete
ma de las fuentes de riqueza mas

Para conjurar ese peligro, para
evitar ell embargo y la perdida de
las fncas y dar respiro y desahogo
A sus propietarios a fin de que las
Ievanten y cultiven de nl1evo, repo-
ni6ndose POGO a POGO, de quebran-
tos sufridos, unense ahora agricuI-
torres y comerciantes, interesados
todos en- esa magma obra en- que es-
triba, en- gran parte, la salvacion
economical del pals, porque pensar
que el cultivo de GSanseveria& Y ell
del Galgodon> puedan sustituir,
con mas 8 menos ventaja, al del
cafe, nos parece un POGO aventura-
do un 81 es no es quimerico.
Este producto de nuestro suelo
esta va acreditado de muy antique
en- ell extrangero; ha competido y
puede atin competir gallardamente
con ell cafe del Brasil el Y de otros
paises, inferiores en- calidad; solo
hace falta que Sc le abran y facili-
ten mercados con reducidos dere-
chos de Importation, que SIC dismi-
nuyan las contribuciones Y que SO
realice un empr6stito que permita
a los cafeteros, de momento, salir
del estado angustiosfsimo cue atra-
yiesan.
A este prop6sito, digna es de
aplauso la mocion presentada La

referente a la realization de un
empr6stito de cinco millones de
dollars con .destino a los Agricul-
tores2.
Gran sentido practice revela
La mocion anterior.
Els este un asunto de interes
general y desde luego suponemos
que contara con el apoyo firme y
decidido de la alta y la baja Ca
mara.
La magnitud y la importan-
eia de la Asamblea pueden nedirse

concurrentes.
Estaban Representatives on ella
