control over said Island except for the
pacification thereof, and asserts Its de
termination, when that is accomplished,
to leave the government and control of
the island to Its people.
"AnM, whereas, the people of Cuba
hve established municipal governments
deriving their authority from the suf
frages of the people given under juat and
equal laws, and are now ready, In like
manner, to proceed to the establishment
of a general government which shall as
sume and exercise sovereignly, jurisdic
tion, and coutrol over the Island.
'Therefore, It Is ordered that a general
election be held In th Island uf Cu!: on

adopt a Constitution for the people ol
Cuba, and as a part thereof to provloV
for and agree with the Government ol

fer of government to the officers so
sleeted.
"Tbe election will be held in the sev
eral voting precincts of the Island under
and pursuant to the provisions of tbe
electoral law of April 18, 1900, and the
amendments thereof.
"The people of the several provinces
will elect delegates in number propor
