Gnverh^r Hogg of Texas Throws Light
On' This Nefarious Operation.
To the Editor of the Telegraph: Below
I give a clipping from a iate Boston
paper containing part of an address de
livered by Governor Hogg of Texas >-
fore the Boston Chamber of Ccnurerce.
In the extract given. Governor Hogg ex
plain* Uie operation-of a recent Texas
law known as "the railroad, rtock ana
bond law." Thai law problhts ruJIraid
corpcnttlons »rom Issuing stocks and
bonds upon their property Just as long
a* they can And Ignorant and confiding
Investors to buy them, it restricts the
Iwue of such stocks and bonds to the
actual value of tae railroad property, as
ascertained by an official investigation
and appraisement made under authority
of the state.
Of the terms and provisions of this law
Governor tfogg says:
“This law. passed by the last legisla
ture. claimed to be so inimical to capital,
defines corporate franchises and prohibits
the Issuance of bonds and other indebted-
neeu by railway companies over and above
the reasonable value of the property, ex.
cept In cases of emergency or conclusive
proof shown by the Interested company
to the railroad commission that public
Interests or the preservation of private
property demand the Issuance of a greater
amount. In that event, within the dis
cretion of the commission, the stocks and
bonds of uny railroad company may be
executed to an amount hot more than
50 per cent, over the value of the prop
erty. This law provides for the estab
lishment of what may be termed a stand
ard of values of each And every railroad
In Texas, to be file! In the office of the
secretary of state. This standard Is pre
pared under the supervision of the com
mission by competent engineers and ex
perts. who go over the railroad under
InveetleaUon and carefully survey end
Itemize all of Its property. Including its
franchises and appurtenances. They as
certain the value of each and every mile,
and of every Item, from a spike to an
engine, from a spadeful of dirt to a
tunnel, from a wagon crossing to & river
bridge-everythlng of any cost or value
whatever belonging to tho company.
“After this work Is prepared, the 00m-
pdhy Interested Is given forty days' no
tice, within which time It may ,K>int out
ahy Item or part of the report where
the value .a placed too low. . In other
words, they are given a hearing so that
the commission may not make nny mis
take in fixing the proper value of every
item of the railway propoity. After
tlce is given nnd the opportunity to be
heatd is afforded, the true vaiuco are
cdabllshed by the commission and tin
record Is lited with the secretary of state
for public inspection and for use in de
termining tho amount of stp^ka and bonds
that are legitimate , under the laws to
be issued bv the company fn the future.
The law is. carefully wonl^d nnd is ,ic-
oeptable alike to an impartial public and
to well thinking, careful' investors who
wish to escape the tricks and frauds that
so often Impair the value 6e railway se-
curlttai. Literally, effectively, by its
term* and pains and penalties prescribed,
the law will eliminate the wind and
wgter out of railroad bonds and stocks
that may hereafter .fo Unyed In Texas.

commercial paper, municipal obligation
or county, or stale bond «"*

with authority to construct, own or op-
mate a vallr(«ut In our state can Isuue
any bond or other Indebtedness, to be
se^ jred by a lien or other mortgage upon
lu franchises or property except upon
application and consent or the railroad
commission. Since the adoption of the
law last year several railroad, companies
have been organixed and afe now con
structing lines under tt. After they pro
cure their charters, pay in the 6 per cent,
cash *on subscribed stock as required by
law, procure their right of way, depot
grounds, terminal raclUtl?s nnd other
property rights; nnd exhtbit their profile
and construction contract, the commission
through Its expert engineers—hive the
property valued, or an rotimate made cf
wlmt the contemplated roa/l will ccst.
On becoming satisfied that the "contra:!
ith tho construction company <is reason
able und fnlr to the public and that ihe
railway company Is acting in goo-1 faith,
the commission authorizes the execution
amount of indebtedness secured ny
lien cn the franchise and property,- to
the extent made necoorary by the de
mands of the work. On this authority
contracts are entered into between
^railway company cnd capitalists for money
sufficient to construct and equip the road.
In lieu of which bonds of the. company
aro executed, approved by the commission,
reglelerrd In the office of secretary of
state, and delivered to the capitalists.
By this method our people are finding but
little or no trouble In procuring all the
money they need! for the construction />f
railways; nnd the capitalist who furnishes
tho money knows full well that his rights
are protected, that his capital Is secure
from the tricks and rapacity of Irre
sponsible manipulators who may seek ad
vantages over him. Railroads built under
tho operation of this law will not be
tupped by receiverships, nor sscond mort-
gages; nor court certificates, nor other
kinds of doubtful Incumbrances to defeat
the rlghis of lecttlmate creditors.
a tho custom before the adoption
of this law for men who understood the
tricks of tho trade* to go Into Texas,

investors In good faith, and our sta*e
given a bod reputation abroad. Under th-
now conditions such Injustice and fraud*
cannot bo rtf*atsd. If the people of
Texas, In the adoption of the liw, have

lb It wan as follows: “The Democratic
•party in this state has just passed tnrough

Atlanta. The fact of his residence here
was urged in the campaign against his
nomination. That unreasonable objection
made us here all tne more unanimous for
him and caused us to feel the more keenly

I did not hear any of Mr. Atkinson's
speeches, nor did I road any speech which
1 understood to be a literal ntatement of
hi* utterances anywhere. I did not make
or Intend to make any charge tlu^t he,
personally, had used that as an argument
against Gen. Evans. That some had used
It I suppose Is unquestionable. Certainly
that Impression was upon the minds of
the people of Atlanta.
I did not say *that that objection de

In nny way to account for his defeat.
I was not making an attach upon, Mr.
Atkinson, but. on the other hand, ‘ was
urging the people of this county to vote
for him. notwithstanding his campaign
bad In some sort been aided by objections
to Gen. Evans because of his residence
