Austin, Texas, July 9.
To the People of Texas:
In the closing days of the recent
session of the legislature senate joint
resolution No. IS, being an amend
ment to sections 40 and So, article
3, Of the state constitution, now gen.
orally known as the bond amendment,
was submitted to the people and is to
be voted on July 10.
After mature consideration and
thorough investigation, we feel it our
duty to advise the people of Texas
that, in our opinion, this amendment
should be defeated. Some of our rea-
sons are as follows:
l. The long settled policy of this
state has been that no bond could be
issued, for any purpose, without a
vote of the taxpayers interested. The
bond amendment recognizes this prin-
ciple in the matter of building school
houses, public roads and irrigation dis
tricts, and its advocates urge it as
one of the reasons why the amend
ment should be adopted. This feature
is a wise policy and is recognized by
the present constitution and the laws
OF the state, and will not be disturbed
if the amendment is defeated; but if
the amendment is adopted it will
take from the people, the taxpayers.
the control that they now have over
the creation of state debts and the
issuance of state bonds and places it
entirely in the hands of the legisla-
ture, which will have full power to
issue bonds for all state purposes ex-
cept the actual running expenses OF
the state government. But the state
officials may incur debts for the run
ming expenses of the government to
the amount of half a million dollars
every two years, which may be, ac-
cording to precedents established by
previous legislatures, converted into
interest bearing bonds if the legisla-
ture desires.

A Few Reasons Why Senate Joint Reso-
luton Is Should Be Defeated

the bond amendment state officials.
without even vote OF the legislature
can levy one half million dollars worth
OF taxes upon the people every two
years.
a. 1t is unfair to the voter and
against public policy to submit num-
Der of subjects in one, thus forcing
him to vote for none or all. 1t is un-
democratic, anti-American and against
the progressive spirit of the times and
absolutely dangerous to the liberties
of the people,
5. The governor has stated that in
his judgment the legislature has the
power to authorize the board of re-
gents to mortgage it's permanent
fund, which in our opinion is proof
sufficient that the plain purpose of
1.-THE amendment is to transfer from
the university to the taxpayers the
burdens of the bonds. In other words
instead of mortgaging the property of
the university, the proposition is to
mortgage every dollars worth of tax
able property in the state.
We, as citizens and as members of
the legislature, stand ever ready to
lend our best efforts for the upbuild.
ing and the advancement OF every
educational institution in the state,
from the common school system 20
the university and the Agricultural
and Mechanical College, but in view
of the fact that the University now
has funds which, together with the
next two years of its income, to sup
ply all needed buildings for the pres
|ent, we deem the price demanded,
that of surrendering upon the part
of the people all control over the
creation of state debts and the is
suance of state bonds, too great TO
pay for pushing the University ahead
.of its present needs.
The only constitution OF this state
which gave the legislature such I'M
limited power was that of 1869, writ
ten by convention presided over By
ID. J. Davis, and the people of Texas
have already paid over seven million
dollars interest, or about double the
amount of the bonds, on the bonds is
sued, and there is not a nickel in the
state treasury to pay the bonds with.
Finally, shall we in the midst Of a
nationwide movement to restore to
the people greater control over their
government assist in depriving the
people of Texas of all control and
take from their constitution all limi-
Bryan daily eagle and pilot. [volume] (Bryan, Tex.) 1909-1918, 1913-07-11

The people will not be permitted to
vote upon any bond issue that the
legislature may see fit to make. There
is no limit to the amount of bonds
that may be issued for the purposes
mentioned in the amendment except
the. will of the legislature. We state
frankly that the power sought to be
granted to the legislature to issue I'M
limited bonds, however good the pur-
pose may be, is power too danger
Gus to place in the hands of any leg
islature regardless of its ability, pa
triotism or integrity. With a dragnet
proposition like the bond amendment,
which offers an opportunity for trad
ing and log rolling. and under which
bonds may be issued for any state
institution, it is especially dangerous
Every bond issue should be submitted
to vote of the people.
2. The bond amendment forbids
the issuance of bonds for local pur-
poses without a vote of the people,
and then clearly limits the amount of
bonds that the people may vote upon
themselves. In other words, the peo-
pie are not to be trusted with their
own business, but the legislature is
to De granted the power to issue un-
limited amounts Of bonds, for some
20 purposes, without any limit as to
the rate of interest or the amount of
the bonds. 1t may be one dollar or
one hundred million dollars, just as a
bare majority of the legislature sees
fit. And they can be issued without
the taxpayer, who must pay the
bonds, voting upon the question. If
the taxpayer, who pays the bonds can
not be trusted to issue bonds for his
own local purposes beyond a certain
amount, how much more necessary is
it to put the bride on the legisla-
ture?
8. The power to create debts is
the power to levy taxes. And under
