(Solís revolt) Manifiesto al público + the 9-article Plan of Solís — the complete revolt program (16 leaves, previously only referenced): indictment of Jefe Echeandía (4+ years' abuse, self-enrichment via a clique, ignoring the soldiers' hunger, usurping the treasury from its rightful Jefe de Hacienda [ties to the Herrera affair], paralyzing agriculture/commerce/schools, letting justice rot); the Plan — Art 1 convene the full Diputación; Art 2 the Diputación deposes Echeandía & takes command, naming a replacement; Art 3 ayuntamientos name a provisional hacienda administrator (not one of the deposed); Art 4 troops under an elected officer adhering to the Plan; Arts 5–7 regularize troop pay & ban arbitrary requisitions/extortion from missions & ranchos; Art 8 protect property, esp. foreigners'; Art 9 only a lawful reform is sought, won't lay down arms until Echeandía is removed; closes reassuring the citizens & foreign residents. A strikingly moderate, legalistic soldiers' manifesto
