The District Commissioners in board

bill to abolish the tax of y cent on
every passenger carried across the High

This bill is in line with similar one

benefits would accrue to the company
itself.
Under public utility regulation,
however, the railway company is en-

return on a fair valuation of it's

of the board of foreign missions. New

Dr. Miller has travelled and done
mission work throughout Central and
South America: his knowledge of
conditions south of the isthmus and
his mastery of the Spanish language,
in which he has written several
books on church problems, have made
him the logical candidate for the
residence at Buenos Aires or Mexico
City.
DR.. Bailey YVES born and educated
in India and it is the common pre-
sumption that he will fill the post
at Delhi, Calcutta or Bangalore. The
disposition of Drs. Grose and Lowe
is uncertain.
