Excerpt from The Chilean Revolution and the Balmaceda Administration: Speech Delivered at the House of Representatives on the 28th of April, 1891
The mixed commission appointed to examine the draft of reform of the constitution has thought fit to select one senator and one representative to explain in each of the two houses, respectively, the antecedents of the present bill upon the extraordinary powers now under the consideration of the house.
I have the honor, of being appointed to address the house upon the subject.
No Chilean fails to understand the serious situation in which the republic is now.
In presence of the extraordinary events which are taking place in our country, it is our imperative duty to prepare the pages of their historic process which our fellow-citizens shall have to form to every one of the participants in our present political affairs.
These considerations compel me to ask the indulgence of the house for the expression of my opinions with that frankness becoming a man who is conscious of his duties.
Only the name of this Constituent Congress shows the solemnity of the occasion and of the present historical moment in reference to the vital interests and the life of the nation.
For the last thirty years the Chilean congress has periodically opened its sessions without being threatened by any other danger than the two foreign wars of 1866 and 1879.
If the opening of the sessions of congress has taken place pending any other very serious political agitations, they were never of a character to divide the Chilean family nor to endanger the stability of our institutions.
To-day the Constituent Congress begins its labors surrounded by the cries and tears of numerous families in mourning and under a crowd of misfortunes; of widows and orphans who have suddenly undergone irreparable losses. [Hear!]
