(De nuestro corresponsal en- Z. W

En- las elecciones, primarias, que Sc
verif1caron aqui, Ell dia del corriente,
pudimos observar dos cosas que juzga-
mos importantes en- ell movimiento pc
htico de los pueblos que someten sus
asuntos publicos' al procedimiento de-
mocratico. Desde luego, bien sabemos
que en- la Municipalidad de New YORK,
priva por inmensa mayoria ell Partido
Democrata; pero no obedece este pue-
bio ciegamente a la inspiration mar
dato de aquel partido, sino que, en- oca
stones, sabe sacudir la tutela y actuar
de acuerdo con su criterio libre, Guar
do liega el momento de depositar Ell vo-
to en- la urna.
Las elecciones primarias Sc concreta-
ban a elegir los Jueces de la Corte SUI
prema de New York, algunos miembros
del Concejo Municipal una parte de
los Delegados la samblea Legislative
del Estado No hay que decir que la
elecciones de los jueces de los MEM
bros del Concejo Municipal fue una
completa victoria para el Partido De-
mocrata. Todos sus candidates resulta-
ron elegidos, contandose entire ellos dos
candidates, Gavegan Blur, que fue-
ron endosados por ambos partidos y re-
sultaron triunfantes sin oposicion. En-
cuanto los candidates para la Asam-
blea Legislative del Estado, ell partl-
do republicano registr6 algin triunto,
y en- adelante continuara aquella Asam
publcana, con una capacidad de "a vo-
tos. Hay quien opina que aun no po-
dra ell Gohernador Smith Ilevar cabo
el programa que Sc impuso cuando fue
a ocupar aqrel alto puesto. Aquel pro-
grama es a1tamente liberal, altamente
democratico, concebido bajo los prince
pios mas sinceros de una completa des-
centralizaci6n de poderes, desde la Ma
ci6n al Estadp, y desde ell Estado a la
Municipalidad. Y Ell Sr. Emith confia
sin embargo, en- que la mayoria repu-
blcana sabra ldescontar los intereses
politicos de partidos, para contribur
patrioticainente a la realization de
aquel programa. Precisamente, ell Par-
lido Democratic y los hombres que In
fuyen con su sabidur1a polftica ad-
ministrativa en- los destinos de este
Pueblo, quisieron saber 81 Ell ciudadano
elector sancionaba con su voto concre-
tamente algunos puntos de aQuel pre-
grama, y sometieron al electorado cir
co enmiendas la Constitution del Es-
tado una proposition una pregur-
ia.
Entire aquellas enmiendas estan: la
de autorizar al Estado para apropiar La
cantidad de 45 millones de dollars para
retribuir con bonos los soldados y
marines que tomaron parte en- la ultl-
ma guerra y que fueron descargados
honorablemente; Ia de autorizar al Es-
tado la apropiacion de so millones de
dollars para reconstruir las Inst1tuc1o-

yorfa del electorado hizo surgir triun-

contrarios aquellas enmiendas Ellos

enmiendas no tomaran possession de las

que fueran una realidad aquellos propo-

The bright star CapelIa. which Is
very similar to our own sun In its
spectrum, was found to furnish the

with our sun, which Is equal to q
