This text is the result of a study aiming to investigate some aspects of poverty in the city of Alfenas.For this, the demands of its citizens were used, in which there are several requests to the municipal executive agent (term used for the equivalent post at the mayor function) and the city council.This documentation was taken from information on the demands of the poor, to be used as indicators of social inequalities in one of the most prosperous cities in the South of Minas Gerais at the time of the First Republic, to learn how the demands were justified and, therefore, as they can contribute to the understanding of the problems faced by the poor in the daily struggle for survival.
