| Antes de exponer nuestras
censuras en- estas lineas, censu-
ras que van dirigidas a la Corte
de Distrito de Humacao, supH-
camos al Honorable Attorney
General de Puerto Rico, que 81
esta Sc considera ofendida por
nuestras palabras y nos quiere
aplicar todo el rigor de la Ley
de desacato, ordene una investi-
gacion. que aclare de un modo
terminante 10 que nosotros ex-
ponemos y despues Sc proceda
como sea de justicia.
Dicho este, a modo de aclara-
c1on, vamos al case.
Es altamente bochornoso e
incalificable 10 que en- la Corte
de Distrito de Humacao sucede.
Los abogados que en- aquella
ciudad ejercen su noble profe-
sion estan maniatados, cohibi-
dos, y, 10 que es mas, avergonza-
dos, al yer que a pesar de sus es-
fuerzos, a pesar de su buena vo-
luntad, a pesar de su actividad,
esa actividad, esa buena volun-
tad y esos esfuerzos Sc estrellan
ante la apatia incalificable de
aquel Tribunal, la que perjndi-
Ca grandemente los intereses de
los que, por desgracia, Sc ven
obligados a acudir a ellos.
Diariamente sc ven los aboga.
dos de Humacao agriamente
censurados por sus clientes
quienes, ignorando que sus re.
presentantes no son los culpa-
bles de la tardanza en- ell despa-
cho de sus asuntos, llegan a
amenazarles con retirarles la re-
presentation que ostentan, sin
pensar que ell NAL no esta en-
ellos, sino en- ell Tribunal encar-
gado de evacuar las diligencias
Sc nos arguira para defender
Sc que aquella Corte tiene TN
excessive trabajo.
ESQ no es excusa; antes al
contrario, 81 es cierto que el ira.
bajo agobia a los selores del
Tribunal de Humacao, motive
es este mas para que, dando
pruebas dc su cello y actividad
atiendan con esmerada solicitud
los trabajos que Sc les encomien-
dan.
Y para que no Sc nos olga que
pecamos de exajerados en- este
asunto, diremos que ha llegadc
a nosotros la noticia de que
nuestro amigo ell Lcdo. don Ul-
piano Valdes Cajas, que tiene su
bufete alberto en- aquella ciu-
dad, Sc ha visto precisado a de-
mandar a los senoreS Jueces que
forman aquel Tribunal, don
Salvador Fulladosa, don Ramon
Quinones, Y Mr.. Charles E.

demnizacion de cuatro mil do

Los Tribunales de Justicia,
mas que ningun otro ramo de la
administration, deben dar gran

asi 10 exige la 1ndole de sus

NOsotros sentimos vivamente
tener que dirigir estas censuras,
pero crcemos que nuestro amor
a la Justicia nos obliga a dar a
la publicidad hechos de esta ma

NOta del d1a

trico ha causado en- San Juan
muy pocas victimas; ESQ no pue.
de negarse, pero otra cosa seria
inaudita, dada la escasisima cir
culacion de vehiculos, carruajes
Y personals en- las GALES, y las
previsoras disposiciones munich
pales, respecto de la circulation
de coches por la calle de San
Francisco. Ademas, son muy
-contados los cruces de los tran
Was y, sobre todo, favorece la
seguridad personal, Ell cuidado
individual, de que todos hace
mos gran acopio, para esrar me-
nos expuestos a mutilaciones y
-atropellos y a inopinados revol-
cones por GALES y carreteras.
ST a pesar de la excesiva pru-
dencia p1blica, de la Quasi nula
circulation por las GALES de per-
sonas y carruajes, tuviesemos
que registrar a diario igual MI
nero de victimas que en- las
grandes ciudades europeas 3
americanas, seria question de
blasfemar del progreso, aunque
pareciera irrespetuoso para la
Ciencia la airada protesta de la
temerosa humanidad.
Pero, en- 10 que cabe. en- 10
que es compatible con nuestra
vida sin agitaciones, metodica
e insoportablemente rranquila,
tambien sufrimos las consecuen-
cias del tranvia
Las quejas del p1blico han 81
do tantas y tan severas, que el
Alcalde de San Juan parece que
esta dispuesto a intervenir en-
las irregularidades del servicio
de la empresa del tranvia elec-
trico.
Y el alcalde tiene razor.
ST sc tratase de un case aisla-
do, sin repeticiones sucesivas,
sin continuidad casi cronica, Sc
lie podria perdonar a la empresa
del tranv1a su dehciencia, en-
gracia a que es 10 1nico que
hasta ahora nos trajeron los nor
team ericanos, de todo su porten-
toso v anonadante progreso.
Pero no eS una vez, son mu-
chas veces seguidas. y ell publi-
co Sc cansa de sufrir y las auto
ridades de tolerar.
va es fuerza que Sc acaben
los abusos y, por 10 visto, van a
acabarse.
Gada vez que la empresa falta
a sus compromises, debe pagar
una multa al municipio. Des-
pues de todo, ESQ de tener la
circulation interrumpida una y
dos horas, es algo aSi como tur-
bar la paz publica. Porque da
lugar a que ell p1blico Sc impa-
ciente Y falte a sus compromi-
SOS Y ODl1gac1oneS, y proteSte en-
diferentes tonos y sufra en- sus

Mas detenidamente nos ocu-

casos, es inapreciable. va basta
de contemplaciones y de tole-

Brieand,s Strange Death.

A young peasant woman of Monte
negro was returning to her home at Get
TIME from town in which she had just
sold some poultry, when suddenly she
met young man who told her that there
was much shorter way to her home and
that he would show it to her If she was
willing. Though he was stranger to
her, the woman saw no reason to distrust
him and gladly accepted his offer. He
preceded her up the mountain path and
in about ten minutes they came to the
edge of precipice. Thereupon the man
suddenly seized her, and, pointing dag
ger at her throat, demanded her money
and her clothes. She was obliged to
obey him and then was preparing to run
away when he stopped her.
mo, no." ho said with laugh,
'you've got to jump now from this
precipice." Falling on her knees she
implored him to spare her life, but he
paid no heed to her and finally threaten
ed that if she did not jump of her own
accord he would throw her over.
