5.  The Negros Revolution,
now commemorated and
popularly known as Al
Cinco de Noviembre or
Negros Day, was a
political movement that in
1898 created a
government in Negros
Island in the Philippines,
informally ending Spanish
control of the island and
resulting in a government
run by the Negrense
natives, at least for that
part of the archipelago
and for a relatively short
period.

6.  Negros did not seem
enthusiastic about the
August 23, 1896 Cry of
Balintawak and the
subsequent revolt headed
by the Tagalog
Katipuneros. Rather, it
disapproved the same as
battalions of volunteers
were organized in Bais,
Valladolid, La Carlota, and
Isabela in order to defend
the island. There had
been, however, early on,
attempts by various
groups on the grassroots
level to revolt against the
Spanish colonizers.

12.  . It was called Republica Filipina de Negros Oriental. When the
provisional government convened, Gen. Juan Araneta of Negros
Occidental proposed the creation of a Federal Republic or a
cantonal form of government. “Canton” was the name given to each
state in the Swiss federation, each having its own executive,
legislative, and judicial branches.
 Consequently, the Negros Oriental provisional revolutionary
government was absorbed into the cantonal government of Negros,
without giving up their allegiance to the Republic of Malolos.
Conflicts arose when Negros Oriental delegates were asked to raise
the American flag which was contrary to their loyalty to Aguinaldo’s
government. The delegates of Negros Oriental refused because of
their loyalty to the Malolos Republic and also because they felt they
were not consulted on the matter. Furthermore, they felt they were
not ready to be subjugated again by another foreign power whose
motives and nature of “imperialism” they were unaware of.
