1t awakens pity and compassion tc
see a Governor forced toa recogni-
ton of the fact that he is daily obli-
ged TO contend with unpopularity
and an evil shadow which pursues
him. because he has neither the will
nor the inclination tc escape it.
The fire at Bayamon has emphasi-
zed this fact, justifying completely
the cry of instructive and irremedia-
bic terror which has gone up from
the country on hearing of the new
acting governorship.
There have been many kuts bur
ned, and that the exact number is
not known illustrates the Indifferent
&C of the government touching what
has occurred and the causes of the
repeated conhagrations.
The attitude of the congreg-
alton has been the same in re-
gard to the disaster in Bayamon AS it
was in that of San Sebastian, though
in the former town huts were burned
and in the latter relatively sumptuous
houses.
AS in the first confagration nearly
all the houses burned belonged to
well to do people, the government, it
seems, did not feel called upon to do
anything.
And as if fate had willed that the
mask of the congregation should be
thrown off, in the Bayamon disaster
only the miserable hutS of the poor
were burned.
What will now be thc attitude of
theSgovernment?
1t is natural to look for some new
excuse, one worthy of the ingenuity
and cleverness of Mr.. Post; some
pretext which will justify the selfs-
hness of the congregantes and save
the government from having to
spend penny.
Nothing, up to the present time,
has been done to improve the condi-
tion of the unfortunate families
whose huts have been destroyed by
fire.
The situation Of these unfortuna-
tcs is desperate in the extreme; their
condition pitiful and their distress
and misery infinite.
How soon is the shallowness of an
excuse, offered to justify inaction on
the part of the government on
a recent solemn occasion discovered:
The government can do nothing.

The burned houses belong to we'll
to do people who possess other
resources.
And the thirty or more ihuts bur
med in Bayamon, to whom do they
belong2
Do those homes, reduced to ashes,
pertain to well to do persons?
IS 1t that in Bayamon the rich
er clases have the caprice OF leav-
ing their comforta bic dwellings and
living IN squalid huts of bark?
Possibly Mr.. Post is about to an
|nounce some new and stupendous
discovery in order that that he may
continue folding his arms in the pre-
sence OF this latest disaster.
Hemay say: only huts are burned.
fire puriles and it is well that such
miserable hutS should be DESTROYED
which are menace and danger to
human life.
Ii the government would make the
attempt, perhaps il would be able to
, ascertain the cause of these lament
able occurrences which happen with
such frequency as to fill the public
mind with fear and alarm, and sug-
gest the idea that they follow some
inscrutable law of fate.
AS on other occasions, the authorit-
les now do nothing; they fold their
arms and offer excuses which are
neither accepted not convince any
body.
However, there is one favorab bic
circumstance which might be cons
idercd by the government.
And it is that our people have,
perhaps, not taken into account that
we are passing through one of those
fatal periods when Mr.. Post is the
temporary head of the government
and in charge of Insular affairs. Wits
the proper realization of this fact,
differen view may be taken of the
nisfortunes which are rife.
While Mr.. Post is the acting head
of the government it is IN vain to
look for happy times.
Perhaps Mr.. Post finds comfort in
the thought that things here might
be worse, that they are not as bad
as in other places, for example IN
San Francisco, California.
Perhaps he will parody the histo-
ric phrase of a certain violent and
anarchistic governor:
Worse things happen in Colorado
