He has transformed for the moment an eco nomic revolution Into a political, al leged reform crusade. From the first the Mexican liberal party's sole aim has been economic the substitution of an economic lib erty for slavery. "The liberal party will not lay flown its arms until the natural re sources of Mexico have been restored to the people for their free and equal use." The manifesto, among others, is signed by General Figerra.
