much has been decided BY those who
nave opposed the proposition since the
c"0S1 ldatlon took place. Statewide and
PaGdall districts have opposed the move

deed school property over. to the new
Inc old trustees signed the deed for the
transfer of the property while the other
refused to attach his name t. the docu-
ment Both of the Statewide trustees
refused to Sign the property over to the
board. The former district feels that it
has double grievance on account of the
fact that the Randall school has been
closed and the pupils transferred to the
North Ogden school It appears that
there were but fourteen pupils and eight
grades in the Randall school SO that the
board deemed it dbeSt for the pupils to he
placed in a school where there were no
more than two grades in a room.
The law. which is a bout to be tested
was formed July ,. 1908. Since that time
there has been considerable opposition
manifested and this has eliminated in
the action that is now to be taken. Able
counsel has been secured by the parties

BISHOP BASHFORD ARRIVES
COMES HOME TO ATTEND BOARD
MEETING.

san Francisco. April I3.-BishoD j.
W. Bashford of the Methodist Episco-
pal church, who has been four years
at Shanghai, arrived from the orient
today. Bishop Bashford for fifteen
years was president of the Ohio Yves
leyan university He is Ell route to
chicago to attend the semi-annuaI
meeting OF the board of Episcopal bish-
ops. Concerning conditions in China.
Bishop Bashford sa id:
The reports of disturbances i'm
China have been grossly exaggerated
IN the United States. There have been
three riots in the empire since the in
auguratiOn Of the American boycott a
year aSO- In the Shanghai riot not a
foreigner was killed. although a score
or more of natives lost their lives at
the hands of foreigners and forty or
hfty were wounded. At LiengChOn five
Americans were killed. At Nanchant,
SIX French subjects and three English
subjects were killed and a day or two
following the riot more than a score
OF Chinese lost their lives i'm a wild
stampede made by them to escape
through the city gates and on boats
on reports that foreign GunbOatS were
coming to destroy the city.
Due to Local Causes.
Each one of these riots was due 10
local causes. and similar causes would
nave produced at least two of them in
the United States. The Chinese gen
orally are friendly to Americans
have Travelled 5000 miles in and around
the empire since the American boy
colt and 10000 i'm China since the Box
er uprising. In all this travel [ was
accompanied by only two or three
Americans. and / have not witnessed
single manifestation of hostility A
further proof that the Chinese are not
hostile to Protestant missions is found
i'm the fact that our hospitals are
crowded.
The gentry Of Nanchang. a city Of
2 million inha bitants. where the recent
riot took place. have presented 20 us
five acres of ground inside the city
walls and raised 5000 taelS for the
erection of a hospital. This was in re-
turn for. sending them DR.. Ida Kahn.
q Chinese woman educated in America
The mission schools and colleges I'm
China are also crowded. The boycott
had little effect on the attendance.
One Disturbing Cause.
Il cannot foreteH the effect or an
adjournment of congress with no modI-
fcatiOn Of the exclusion act and with
o/provision for a more rational and
juSt enforcement of IL. IF that diff
hSulty were out of the way I should
say that the prospects of American
trade. of American influence and OF
Christian missions in China are better
than at any previous period i'm his
tory.
There are. indeed. some signs Of
unrest in China. But this is not a re-
cIudescenCe of the Boxer movement
Even the most reactiOnary authorities
i'm China have learned the power of
foreign governments. and viii not en-
courage another Boxer uprising"
