Born in Cochabamba, Salamanca studied law, before being elected to Bolivia's Chamber of Deputies in 1899 for the Liberal Party. Two years later, President José Manuel Pando appointed him Finance Minister.

Immediately upon assuming office, Salamanca introduced an unpopular austerity program and clamped down on political opposition to his government. In what was likely a measure to avert public attention to the economic problems still facing the country, he also revived hostilities with Paraguay in the disputed Chaco region, ordering the army to attack a Paraguayan garrison at Vanguardia. This ignited the disastrous Chaco War (1932-1935). The war only exacerbated already severe economic problems in Bolivia (and in Paraguay), while causing many thousands of casualties. On November 27, 1934, a group of Bolivian generals deposed Salamanca while he visited their headquarters Villamontes and replaced him with the vice president, José Luis Tejada Sorzano. Salamanca retired to Cochabamba, where he died less than a year later.
