half OF that committee, and 10 reply to the
minority report made heretofore by the

Mr.. President So much has been said by
the Senator from Harris upon this

port TO the country, upon the sub
ject OF the sale Of the United States
bonds belonging to the permanent school

First, That the Constitution requires that
the Comptroller shall invest the proceeds OF
such sales School lands) and of those here
after made as may be directed by the Board
OF Education herein provided for in the

And the United States bonds now belong
ing to said fund School fund.- shall likewise
be invested in State bonds, If the same can
be obtained on terms advantageous TO the
school fund.
Here is the requisition upon the Comp
trOlieT aud Board Of Education. They shall
sell; they shall invest in State bonds is the
language Of The Constitution; and they and
the State Board of Education, believing it
10 be TO the best interest of the permanent
school fund to make the sale and invest
ment are before US in the bills already
passed, and they are now under considera-
