IT fsa source of disappoint-

ers that he has seen fit to de-
cline the appointment on the
Canadian commission rendered
him by the president. 1t is in
timated that Mr.. Mills is fast
accumulating a fortune from
his oil wells near Consicana
and does not care for any
further political Office or emolu-

plausible. in view of the fact
that the senator did aspire to

this reason desires to retire to
