From the suburbs of Barcelona
“A new town”
The progress and increase of the population in the suburbs of Barcelona is truly amazing. From evening till morning steam rises…then farm houses appear everywhere; one street is established here, and then one opens in another…soon this will become a town. In this, the sacred cross is not the first sign or a raised flag…it is an olive branch in a tavern; at its side a coffee bar is opened; not far is a casino, and at the end is a luxurious and magnificent building, intended to be a theatre; once done, you can see there a new people and a new town. What is lacking for its prosperity?
