SummaryResumen
The Topeka State Journal, quoting the Chicago Tribune, contrasted the revolutionary unrest marching toward Port-au-Prince in Haiti with the peace prevailing in Santo Domingo. The article attributed Dominican stability to the U.S. supervision of customs houses, which prevented ambitious politicians and exiles from seizing revenues to finance rebellions. It argued that without access to customs funds for a war chest, successful insurgencies in the Dominican Republic were no longer possible.
The Topeka State Journal, citando al *Chicago Tribune*, contrastó la agitación revolucionaria que avanzaba hacia Puerto Príncipe en Haití con la paz reinante en Santo Domingo. El artículo atribuía la estabilidad dominicana a la supervisión estadounidense de las aduanas, la cual impedía que políticos ambiciosos y exiliados se apropiaran de los caudales para costear rebeliones. Argumentaba que, al no tener acceso a los fondos aduaneros como botín bélico, las insurgencias exitosas en la República Dominicana habían dejado de ser viables.

the present government and drive its
dead into exile. The revolutionists
have occupied two small seaport
towns, and are said to be marching on
Port au Prince.
When Hayti Is In a turmoil Its
neighbor, Santo Domingo, is tranquil.
There are Dominican exiles who would
like to return and, start a revolution.
There are Dominicans at home who
think they are better qualified! to
administer the government than those
who are doing so and who In the old
days would not have remained quiet
long. The exiles do not venture to re
turn and the ambitious Dominicans
who are out of office do not get up re
bellions. The reason is that the United States
is exerting a pacific influence In Santo
Domingo, but not In Hayti. It Is
supervising the collection of Domini
can customs duties, and will tolerate
no interference. It is useless to start
a revolution unless a custom house
can be seized and the duties collected
there be put into the revolutionary
war chest. The money to finance a
successful uprising cannot be had in
any other way. Chicago Tribune.
INVOLUNTARY CONTEMPT.
