NEW ORIFANs Nav S-Dr Francisco
Moreira. former Minister-General Of the
Estrada Government az Blueiields. has
arrived in this city. Recently released
from prison by orders Of Estrada, after
serving thirty days for an alleged treas
enable attempt 20 turn over the Atlantic
coast towns 20 Madri2. Dr, Moreira in
dignAntly denies that he was guilty
He says that he became discouraged by
the quarrels Of the rpyolutionist party
over the spoils Of ofiice and resigned
voluntarily his Office OF Minister General
some days later he was arrested on a
charge Of treason. together with Gen.
Augusta Matuty. and sent 20 prison.
where he remained until April p. when
he sailed for New Orleans.
| Dr Moreira says that tho revolut ion
Will not last more than fifteen days more.
When the steamship Venus ARRIVES in
/ Bluefelds all will be over
The whole trouble Is that tho revoltl-
ticnists have turned over their Affairs
TO the conservative party he said AT
the commencement of the revolution
all was serene and the liberals and con
servativcs fought together for the dis
placement Of Zelaya when lelaya was
forced % leave the factions split and
Gen EmilianO ChamorrO headed the
conserv atives. while Gen, Estrada headed
the liberals
This has been the way ever since
but the conservatives have been con-
stantly gaining In power until they are
now In control oi tho revolutionary
government The liberals who formerly
supported Estrada, would rather So
Madrz President than their ancient
political enemies In control Of the Gov
eminent
The conservative ara the blue blood
Of the country who have the idsa 81 no.
bihty They want % kesp the common
people In subsection and care nothing for
educating che lower CLASSES or allowing
them 20 uplift themselves. They want
70 have a republic In name. with all the
ofiioes divided among their families.
Fully q per cent. Of tho Nioanguan
people are liberals who wait a purely
republican form Of government. They
do not want the Intervention 1t tho United
States. because they do not think that
necessary. but they want the education
OF tho common people and the building
Of schools and railroads - that capital
can come In and develop the resources
We do not want tho government 90 b
divided among a few families who get
all the benefits and the common people
nothing
Dr. Moreira said that he believed the
NiCaraguRn people wanted peacs and
would he satisfied 10 take Madnz a. their
President temporarily until an election
could 10 held. He thought Estrada had
ruined his chances by suTrendering 20 the
conservatives.
