The Autonomist Party ((スペイン語:Partido Autonomista)) was a political party in Puerto Rico founded in 1887.〔(''Municipalities/Ponce/Founding & History.'' ) Encyclopedia Puerto Rico. Retrieved 29 February 2012.〕 The Party was founded in Ponce, Puerto Rico, and its first chairman was Román Baldorioty de Castro.〔(Founded by Roman Baldorioty de Castro in 1887 )〕 He was followed by Martin Corchado, a prominent physician from Ponce.〔(''Luis Munoz Rivera: Los Vaivenes de un politico.'' ) Jaime Oliver Marqués. FOCUS. Volume III, No. 2, (2004) pp. 31-48) Retrieved 2 December 2011.〕 Juan Hernández López was one of the co-authors of its program in 1897.〔(Biografía de Juan Hernández López ) on SenadoPR〕 The Party sought to establish an independent government for Puerto Rico under the Spanish colonial system. The party advocated self-rule, but not independence from Spain. It envisioned decentralised control by Spain, and the strongest possible local government.〔(America's Colony: The Political and Cultural Conflict between the United and Puerto Rico by Pedro A. Malavet. Page 55 )〕 To provide a voice for the Autonomist Party, Luis Muñoz Rivera, one of its founders, founded the newspaper ''La Democracia'' (The Democracy). In it he argued for Puerto Rican independence, denounced the injustices of the Spanish regime, and lobbied for the support of one of the main political parties in Spain to fulfill the goals of the Autonomist party.〔(Hispanic Americans in Congress )〕 In 1897 the Party joined with the less conservative but still monachist Spanish Liberal Fusionist Party of Praxedes Mateo Sagasta, becoming the Liberal Fusionist Party of Puerto Rico. Some members in the Autonomist party who were opposed to any kind of alliance with Spanish political parties, left to form the Pure and Orthodox Liberal Party, with Jose Celso Barbosa as its leader.〔(''America's Colony: The Political and Cultural Conflict between the United and Puerto Rico.'' ) Pedro A.
