The Santander socialists competed with the local anarchist movement over the domination of the labour movement in the city, a rivalry expressed through competition between La Voz del Pueblo and the anarchist organ Adelante.Baró Pazos, Juan. Mutua Montañesa, en su primer centenario (1905-2005). Santander: Universidad de Cantabria, 2006. p. 64
In July 1905 Matías Ramo took over as director of La Voz del Pueblo, as Acevedo had moved to Bilbao to run La Lucha de Clases there. At the time La Voz del Pueblo was facing a dire economic situation, largely due to its refusal to accept paid advertisements from local traders. Moreover, it had problems with standing payments from some of its distributors.Gutiérrez Lázaro, Cecilia, and Antonio Santoveña Setién. UGT en Cantabria, 1888-1937. Santander: Universidad de Cantabria, 2000. p. 86
