Col. Abner Taylor here joined Mr.

the question of the influx of foreign cap

Hurley said:
''The legislature of the state of Texas
should start every bill with proviso that
they want TO do something to prevent
capital coming to the state, as their ac-
tions would lead one te think that was
their main object. The people in the
east would come in here with so much
money and interest could be reduced to
6 per cent. in two years if the legislators
would stop logging capital and other
corporate interests. Why is it that
Minneapolis sells her ~ per cent. bonds

legislators are not constantly dogging

because there is a kindly interest gust

Texas because of her sound financial con-
dition. 1t is claimed that the mortgages
