Credit aud Honor Of Texas.

New York Bulletin The State OF
Texas has consummated very credi-
table financial operation in negotiating
loan of 100000 at six per cent gold,
and calling in an equal amount of
pension bonds" bearing ten per cent.
This saves the state $4,000 year. 1t
is well deserving tho consideration of
other states, in good credit and yet pay
ing over six per cent interest, whether,
in these times of low rates for money,
they should not attempt to reduce their
interest charges California, Maine
Maryland, New Jersey and other states
in good standing ought to be able to
make some reductions in their rate of
interest, and it is not very apparent
why our own state should be paying
six per cent. on over ten millions of
bonds when the federal government can
borrow at four per cent Would it not
pay some negotiator Of high standing to
see what can be done towards arrang-
ing for the refunding of some of our
first class state obligations There is
money in IL, both for the negotiator and
the states. In these times of oppres.
sive taxation, the state governments
are bound to consider thus question.
