COMMISSIONERS MEETING
Continued from page l

"
the city solicitor and your advice also,
/ have not accepted any of these Of
fers." The instructions to which the
tax collector alluded were contained in
a letter sent him by the Commission
ers the week previous and which read
90 this. fashion:
Dear Sir: In the payment of taxes
by any individual or corporation, you
are to accept payment of the total
amount due the city and nothing less.
Under no circumstances have you the
legal right to enter into any agree
ment with any individual or corpora
ton owing taxes to the city for any
deduction or change of conditions in
regard to the payment thereof"
A postal card from Delin H. Jara-
nilla was shown on which appeared
this request:
please send me a copy of your lat
est illustrated catalogue, without any
obligation on my part. Hoping to re-
ceive it soon, 1 am, yours truly"
Mr.. Jaranilla is connected in some
way with Silliman Institute, in Duma-
guete, a town or city in the Philippine
Islands. 1t would be reasonable to
assume, from the examination of this
card, that the writer was either a stu
dent or an instructor at the institute
named. The request was complied
with by the secretary of the Board of
Trade. Wildwood's fame, it would
seem, is not bounded by the shore
lines of the western continent, but ex-
tends even beyond the seas.
After some discussion on the sub
ject of anonymous communications
addressed to the Commissioners, and
which were decided to be most unfa-
vorable to the writer's of such, a
motion to adjourn prevailed at $40.
