It would seem that the work of Protestant missionaries in Spain is sufficiently difficult already; but it appears that there is a movement on foot to make it all but impossible to carry on evangelistic work in that country. The following clipping from an exchange will show what is proposed:—

In Spain, the legislation designed to relieve the country from some of the pressure of the papal yoke threatens to make Protestant work difficult, if not impossible. Two of its provisions are that educational work must not be carried on by religious bodies, and that foreigners must not engage in religious propaganda. Let us pray that these clauses may be modified before the bill, excellent in intention and in many of its provisions, becomes law.
