SummaryResumen
A Herald correspondent interviews an imprisoned former governor who says he took up arms because he wanted liberty of expression in the vote concerning the sale of Samana. He insists the people were dragooned into voting for the Baez measure and would have voted against it if the pressure had been taken off, that none of the money paid by the Americans would benefit the country but would go into the pockets of Baez and his associates, and that the government has done nothing for the people toward Monte Cristo who have had no rain in two years.
