SummaryResumen
The Yorkville Enquirer commented on Dominican political instability and former President Morales's campaign to regain the presidency by force, arguing that the country needed a strong leader comparable to Mexico's Porfirio Diaz. The article questioned whether Morales could improve upon the incumbent administration or justify plunging the nation into civil war. It noted that if threatened, the Dominican government could invoke a treaty clause originally drafted by Morales himself to request American intervention to protect debt obligations.

El artículo cuestionaba si Morales podría mejorar la gestión del gobierno en funciones o justificar que se sumiera a la nación en una guerra civil. Señalaba que, de verse amenazado, el gobierno dominicano podría recurrir a una cláusula del tratado redactada en su momento por el propio Morales para solicitar la intervención estadounidense en salvaguarda de los compromisos de la deuda.

American civilization, for the first university
in the New World was established
in Santo Domingo, is at present
living in the sixteenth century. Is it
to be wondered at under the circumstances
that the little republic is a
prey to the worst evils that battened
upon Europe during that era? Santo
Domingo undoubtedly needs a despotic
ruler with a determination to make it
progress, a man of the Pofirlo Diaz
type, who will do for it what Diaz has
done for Mexico. Whether Morales is
capable of doing this or not can not be
surmised. His term of office was too
short to permit an influence either in
pro or in contra, but his passage was
marked by undeniable progress.
Morales's plans of government,
whatever they may be, should he succeed
in reaching the presidency, are
unknown, but unless he can materially
better the present administration he

war into his country.
He is, however, still a long way from

to reacn it or perisn in me attempt,
but it is feared that the present administration
if driven to extremity will
