That doesn’t mean that his Is & |bea of roses. Hie will expire next | vear ana the elections will be held some time in October, 191l 1n all likelihood he will not be a candidate for re-election. 1t he can serve out his term without & revolu tion to mar its peaceful history, he will have every reason to congratulate himself The main argument that is directed against him by his opponents is that he owes his place at the head of the state to Zelaya | and that he must therefore be a henchman of Nicaragua's fallen dictator. There are several political parties in | Honduras. They differ solely as to their | leaders. As to principle or theories uf Eov- | ernment they do not profess any definite | convictions. Any one of them coming into \.m.-r might Be relled upon (o contlnue the government in practically same | way that Davila is now running it. The personality of the leaders therefore becomes important. The party which supports Polycurpo Bonilla does not at present have any considerable degree of popularity. Its | most conspicuous members, aside trom Don Polycarpo himself, are the brothers Ugarte, particularly Arigel Ugarte, at one time min ister 1o England, and again 0 the United States. At the head ential party is Manuel relative of Don Polycarpo, | ing the same family name. leaders of this party are in exile. them is Fausto Davila, a relative of the actual president of Honduras. Another con- spicuous member of this faction, General Gallardo, has in his time held high positions under the government. He was for some time governor of Tegucigalpa, and then governor of the Atlantle coast. Gallardo took @ leading part in the war with Nica- ragua three years agv. He was in com mand of of armies operating against Zelaya. He withdrew from Hondu- after peace had been established be- tween the two countries and President Davila had come into office. Gallardo re- turned to Honduras about eighteen months ago, but his motives were suspected, and within two weeks he was notified by ftfends that the climate wasn't nearly so healthy for him as he thought. The hint was suffi- cient. Gallardo got skiff and rowed hastily away to Belize, Polycarpo Bonills was once president of Honduras. He was one of three presidents who, in 139, founded the Republica Mayor, or Greater Central American Republic. In this scheme he was associated with Zelaya ot Nicardgua and Gutlerrez of Salvador. The main feature of the unfon was a con- gress, which held its meetings in Managua. Spain even went €0 far as to recognize the existence of the Republica Mayor, and to accredit a minister to it. But within | the year Regalado started a revolution In Salvador against Gutierrez, which diverted salvador from the union, and it promptly aissolved. This was Don Polycarpo's prin- cipal exploiv as a statesma Polycarpo Bonilla is a man of genuine talent. He was originally a lawyer, and made his home In Tegucigalpa. His term s president came to an end in 1898, when Sierra was peacefully elected to succeed him, In 1902 Sierra declared in favor ot free elections—that 1s, he proposed to al- low all parties to present their candidates, and to surrender power to the man get- ting the majority of the votes cast. That sort of pronouncemens might net awaken much interest In the United States, but it was quite novel enough in Central America to create considerable discussion. Some | people urged Slerra to retain his hold on power. Two candidates Arias and Manuel Bonilla. was spirited. The influence of the gov- ernment was thrown to Arias. 1In spite of all that Sierra coufd do to influence the issue, Manuel came in at the head of the poll. Slerra, whose honesty of purpose does not seem to be questioned, even now, by his political enemlies, theh took the course, startling in view of his previous {1iberal declarations, of cancelling the elec- | tions. He declared there had heen frauds of a nature to vitlate the result entirely. This action, under the constitution, threw the election Into the congress. At the same time Slerra arrested some of the most enterprising of the campalgn managers of the Bonilla party, and put them in jail. Bonllla didn’t wait for anything to hap- pen to him. He departed with all haste for Amapala, whither his adherents pro- ceeded to assemble. In the meantime con- gress had met and cast its vote for Arias Bonilla felt he had been badly treated, and adopted the Central American ¢x- pedient of revolution. Within three weeks he succeeded In driving Arlas out of office. There was some fierce fighting, in which Slerra took part in the conflict in person. When the result of the campaign was no longer in question, Sierra and Arias departed precipitately for Nicaragua term 0 the another and very infiu Bonilia, He is although bear Some of the Among of no one the as a declared themselves— The contest | Manuel Bonilla made a pretty good presi ldent.

The financial Bonllla administration wer Peace and plenty prevailled throughout the country But Manuel was not free from the vices of his predecessors He could and did at times take things into his hands and smash the laws and the constitution | with typical Central American reckless ness; as, for instance, when he caused the arrest and imprisonment of seven com- [y men, on the charge of conepiracy, in- vading the halls of congress, and taking the members in the place of assem bly. By and by, elever as he Manuel | made a mistake. He sent Timoteo Miralda | minister Niearagua. Miralda was| an accomplished gentleman, no doubt, but he wasn't enough of a diplomatist to keep his chief from getting into trouble with Zelaya. In fact, Miralda advised Bonilla to enter Into a hard-and-fast alliance with Zelaya project which Bonllla felt ob- liged frown upe That displeased Zelaya. From that d forth the ruler of | Nicaragua about to compass the de- | struetion of the recaleitrant Honduran ex ! ecutive The opportunfty which finally presented ftself resulted from the announcement of the king of Spain's award in th Honduras Nicaragua boundary dispute. The Kking gave the territory in dispute to Honduras, and Bonilla thought he was entitled to send troops iInto that district and take possession. His forces, however, were promptly attacked by Nicaraguan soldiery as invaders of Nicaraguan soil. ‘That was the beginning of hostilities. laya was alded and abetted in his plans against Honduras by a numbs of ‘‘emigrados, such Generals Rosales and Gutierres, Constantino Fiallos and x-President Sirra. These men took prominent part in raising and leading the army which was presently dispatched against Honllla. Though Salvador lent moral and material assistance to Honduras, the campalgn re sulted in the complete defeat of Bonilla The Nicaraguan troops defeated the Salva doreans at Namasigue and at San Marcos One feature of (he military operations was the advance of a Nicaraguan army under Generat Estrada along the northern coast of Honduras. Estrada—the same, by the way, who is causing so much disturbance in Nicaragua just at this moment—captured Truxillo, Celtfi, Porto Cortez and San Pedro, and Reld the coast thenceforth until Davila, as provisional president, secured the withdrawal of the Nicaraugan forces from Honduran soil Bonllla, after many adventures made his way to Mexico. hen we went to Belize, where he now makes his home, His deposi- tion left the presidential chalr vacant. It was necessary to find somebody to fill it To this task the “junta” of Honduran exiles with the Nicaraguan army, addressed itseif with great cheer, though but small success. This “junta” had been formed early in the campaign, and was composed of Generals Rosales, Castro and Oquell Bustillo. They sgreed to hold the chairmanship in rota- +ion, each one for fifteen days at a time. Naturally enough, this scheme produced discord.. The longer they debated the choice of president the more it became ap- parent that thelr interests clashed and the more obviously impossible became any eventual declsion. Zelaya, watching the process of events with an anxious eye, now attempted to fore- stall the “junta’s” determination. At his cuggestion ex-President Sierra proclaimed himself president and raised his tlag 1A Amapala. The news of this rising re- celved In Tegucigalpa with quite other effects than Zelaya anticipated. It In- stantly became apparent that unless Slerra were to return to power, some person who would be generally acceptable to the country must be put in the vacant presi- dency. The man wanted w one who would be honest, able and aboye all, one who had taken no part in the recent revo- | lution. Such & man was General Miguel Davila Davila had been elected vice president on the ticket headed by Manuel Bonflla, but had been legislated- out of | office by the congressional decree whereby | Bonilla was declared dictator for a term of six years. He tock up with energy and couraga.the difficult and dangerous task | confided to his hands, A detachment of his troops intercepted Sierra and his followers at Nacaome and inflicted upon them a crushing: defeat. From that time to the present peace has been the main object of Davila's adminis- tration, He belleves that the one thing Honduras needs s quiet. The country is vich and its developement is assured, go| long as no recrudescence of revolution 1 | anticipated. While he has been able to | prevent the actual outbreak of war, Dacilf has much to contend with in the constant menace implied in the presence of Manuel ! Bonilla in Belize, within easy striking dis- | tance of the Honduran coast. As long as Bonilla is there the risk of trouble is great, and that fact has sufficed to make | Davila's way any but an easy one For these reasons Davila has sincere supporter of the plan Washington hopes to prevent any conflicts between the varlous Central American states. For these reasons, too, he abstained from meddling in’ the present Nicaraguan embroglio. !
