Texas is about to start criminal pros
ecutions against the officers of nearly
a hundred fraudulent oil companies.
who. during the boom, have sold
worthless stock to the amount OF mil
lions Of dollars. 1t will, Of course,
be some satisfaction to the people whu
have paid their money for waste paper
in the shape OF oil stock to see the
men who deceived them sent to state
prison. Prompter action. however, on
the part of the Texas authorities would
have benefited many credulous invest
ors and prevented the gathering of
the cloud of suspicion which at pres
ent hangs over Texas oil investments.
The freedom with which the oil boom
swindlers have been allowed to oper-
ate has had a bad effect, even on the
reliable companies. Chicago Tribune.
