The war that was to begin in Cuba and end in national independence, main objective of the 1868 war and which was never achieved, could not advance without a guideline or adequate leadership.
  The decisive unity of the Cuban emigrants in the United States began in the last trimester of 1891 that gathered the interests and characteristics of the different emigrant groups, in addition to the different elements that made up Cuban society was essential for the future republic that would emerge.
  The most important of the preparatory objectives occurred on January 5th, 1892, date in which Marti announced the Bases and Statutes of the future Cuban Revolutionary Party.
  The documents were approved before the presence of 27 people, members of the leadership of the emigration organizations, the Key West Cuban Convention and the owners of three of the most important cigar factories.
  With this diverse representation, the Cuban National Hero achieved the consensus and commitment of different sectors of the emigration in the US.  The articles of the Bases totaled 9, gathered and broadened the integration and unifying spirit desired for a long time.
  The main objective and included in the first article was to achieve the independence of Cuba and Puerto Rico.
  The generous and brief character of the conflict to begin included the preparation for the war for the good of the Cuban people and the non commitment with any nation.  These were some of the aspects gathered in the Bases ratifying the republican ideal of the Cuban liberation movement.
  The structure of the Party was the most important aspect and was sustained in the independent associations whose presidents made up in each area the Council Body.
  Jose Marti was elected as delegate and maximum figure while Benjamin Guerra as Treasurer.  The proclamation of the Party on April 10th coincided with the date in which, the Republic in Arms was constituted in 1869.
  Thanks to the efforts of the Party, significant financial contributions were achieved in order to begin and develop the war.  Juan Gualberto Gomez was responsible for the structure of the Cuban Revolutionary Party.
  The Patria Daily was freely distributed abroad and clandestine in Cuba and contributed to promoting the objectives of the organization and the inevitability of the war.
  With the death in combat of Jose Marti, different opinions were written on who would replace him as leader of the CRP.  There were unanimous opinions among the community of historians that said that Marti never left any written document on who would replace him as delegate.
  The main candidates proposed by the emigration were Gonzalo de Quesada and Tomas Estrada Palma; the latter was elected and was in charge until the dissolution of the party in December of 1898.
  Despite the short life of the Party, it was a contribution by Jose Marti to future generations to continue their combat against imperialism in the new conditions that would arise in the newly born Republic.
