Small Rise in Tax Values Contemplated by City Board
The city board of equalization, after over a month of hearings on 1915 assessments, nears completion. Protests have been heard alphabetically. the final roll remains. Indications point to only a small rise in taxable values, possibly not exceeding $106,000, likely requiring a higher tax rate to fund city operations. The Somers system has stabilized values, with unit values retained and few reductions. Under new governance, the board operates with three-member quorums and no extra compensation, improving efficiency.

Penrose Seen As Possible Republican Presidential Candidate
United States Senator Boles Penrose of Pennsylvania, in San Antonio with an escort of honor at the Liberty Bell event, would not deny interest in a presidential bid next year. His friends say he could win the Republican nomination if enough delegates support him, arguing the main contest will be between Republicans and Democrats as the Progressive party wanes. Penrose has been gauging GOP leaders during his tour, and a Taft ally, A. F. MacGregor, is set to confer with him in Houston Friday.
