The Sertão, or backwoods, cannot be seen only as a space. This is a very narrow and simplistic notion of what he really is. The Sertão is the human relationship, it is the community, it is a space of power practices. It is in this sense that we need to observe the practices that build this space. The drought, even with sadness and ills, also results in a modern space, that's where we find living manifestations of human expression through the writing and publication of periodicals of a political nature, full of criticism and feelings of the time. In the north Sertão of Ceará, in the small and opulent city of Sobral, we find a very acidic and lively newspaper, which lasted from 1914 to 1924. Time needed to win allies and win many enemies, too. This work aims to study the relations between the journalist Deolindo Barreto Lima, editor of the newspaper A Lucta, and Colonel Francisco de Almeida Monte, observing their deeds and the way they were described, without leaving aside the crimes and criticisms of one towards another, having the newspaper as a central source. This is an intriguing plot, full of accusations and few paths and that's where the documentary research in newspapers, available in physical or digital files, if desired, without leaving aside romantic chronicles or memoirist writings. In these readings, it is not difficult to find texts loaded with feelings and criticism, easily leading to question whether the view that one had of the other was really objective. This objectivity built a character with characteristics that only exist in the mind of the person who described it, making it necessary to deeply analyze what was said in order to understand whether or not this construction is close to something fictional, imaginative or even real.
