A recent campaign in Puerto Rico by the Independent Regular Brigade under the command of BrigGeneral Schwan . Promenade of the Fleas in When only One Man gets a Letter. YAUCO TO LAS MARIAS 91 There is always room in the hotels of thelarger towns; and, until one can build forhimself, a hotel offers a very pleasant substi-tute — at a slightly increased expense. Land,for building purposes, or in an unimprovedstate, can be leased for a sum that is almostnominal, except in a few highly favored local-ities. Purchasers of land are more thanlikely to find themselves immediately em-broiled in a lawsuit over the title. If noflaw exists in your title, then it does exist inone that was drawn up a hundred years ago;and in either case the result is the same —you lose. Skilled workmen in any branch of industrywill not find a good field for their abilitiesin Puerto Rico, at least not for a few yearsto come.
