Jewel. It little matters, Sirs, that it is President a Lion, or Boar, or Elephant. What we want is to knock down the Government. Nevertheless, it will always be my opinion that we don't take the Presidency of our benefactor Guts. (shouts of approval). Sirs, the name of the Guts still today with admiration is repeated at the island of Barataria, the one where great Sancho was immortalized, as it is read in Don Quixote's Chronicles; and you well know that of that illustrious lineage our estimable Dupe Guts descends; this is not to burn him a rotten incense, but yes to demonstrate you the convenience that His Very High Excellence Mr. President Guts continues to preside our Repillage (general shouts of approval).

Mygodfather. I cannot take the patience that we are consuming the time in discussing measures that should be subsequent to the act of our political emancipation. What, Sirs!, you speak in Triumvirates when we still moaned under the damned Government's of September 19th yoke!! And won't this be putting the cart to run ahead of the oxen? Sirs! We firstly should break the yoke that ties us, so later we take care of Dictatorship, or Triumvirate. You suppose it is easy the installation of Repillage, and I judge it difficult. We struggled with heterogeneous elements; we don't still have sufficiently a people well educated to savor the sweet fruits of our Repillage. The people that

obey us is the personalized stupidity; nothing understands of politics; it reigns among them the deepest ignorance and indifference for everything that is of the Homeland; if frankly we tell them - we will proclaim the Repillage - the people abandon us, it fails our project. It is therefore necessary a lot of scream in this business. Let us continue our first plan; let us anarchize the Province, let us curse the current Government, let us disarrange, let us confuse everything; and you will see that the Government, lost the moral force and the public trust, or it should be dismissed or to surrender to our discretion; and then we will have the free field for us to proclaim the Repillage, or any form of Government that goes more similar to our circumstances.

Nasal. I admit myself with the ideas of the inustrous membe: It is him here who discounes betta.

Lie. Mr. Deputy Mygodfather, he hurt in the point of the question. With effect, Sirs, if we want to knock down the Government, it is necessary to throw it soon and more fire, anarchy and more anarchy, progress and more progress. We will only so triumph. Let us reject all the measures for public benefit, or of general interest; don't be it done on this year the law of the budget, nor any other law: and each one should attack the Government in the way that we want, following what suggests him his patriotism.

Monkey. Well then, Sirs, let us rehearse. Discourse each one on that that should do tomorrow and
