Life

Salvador Machado Aguero belonged to the current of the Progresistas within the Partido Republicano . He was a member of parliament.

On April 28, 1893, the commander of the Garrison of Granada , Eduardo Montiel of the Partido Conservador , rebelled against President Roberto Sacaza , also of the Partido Conservador. Joaquín Zavala Solís agreed to support the uprising. The insurgents received support from General José Santos Zelaya of the Partido Liberal . The Catholic Church and his family supported Roberto Sacaza. The insurgents occupied Masaya and moved towards Managua. At La Barranca, the insurgents defeated the government troops. The US ambassador Lewis Baker offered to mediate.

In the Pacto de Sabana Grande on May 31, 1893, Sacasa agreed to hand over power to a junta of five people, two of whom were appointed by him and three by the insurgents. The junta was to rule within four months of calling a constituent assembly. One of those appointed by José Santos Zelaya was Salvador Machado Aguero; he presided over the junta.

On July 6, 1893, General Zelaya insisted that the presidency should pass from Salvador Machado Aguero to General Joaquín Zavala . The Pacto de Sabana Grande was broken and Salvador Machado was replaced by Joaquín Zavala, who appointed José Santos Zelaya as commander in chief of the troops.
