'Tiranías y excesos de los buques nacionales'

Dep. State Papers, Benicia (Custom House), tomo I–VIII · BANC MSS C-A 41, document 58

'Tiranías y excesos de los buques nacionales': foreign ships are the only ones paying duties and selling cheap; national ships tyrannize the people with dear goods and fake Mexican-port guías (never paying a real, no coast guard). Enforcing the law turns both people (who lack the prohibited goods) and the unpaid troops — who have before 'echársele encima al comisario… queriéndolos matar porq.e les ha faltado el socorro' — against him.
