Section 68
SEC. 68. Whereas a large majority of the inhabitants of Nueva Vizcaya are members of non-Christian tribes who have not progressed sufficiently in civilization to make it practicable to bring them under any form of municipal government, the provincial governor is authorized, subject to the approval of the Secretary of the Interior, in dealing with these non-Christian tribes, or members thereof, to appoint officers from among the members of said tribes, to fix their designations and badges of office, and to prescribe their powers and duties: Provided, That the powers and duties thus prescribed shall not be in excess of the powers conferred upon the township officers by this Act.
