SENATE KES
BILL TO CURB
OIL COMPANIES
Drastic Measure Objected
to by Producers Gets Only
One Opposing Vote.
NEW RANGER BILLS UP
Miller Proposes Complete
Reorganization of Force
and Increased Pay.
Austin Tex. Feb. 21.—8 y far the
most drastic piece of legislation so far
passed in either branch of the Legisla-
ture during the present session affect-
ing the oil industry iu Texas is the
Senate bill by Senator R. V. Dorrough
of Bowie which carried finally in the
upper branch yesterday with but one
dissenting vote —that of Senator Bu-
chanan of Scurry.
The bill which has yet to pass in
the lower house is a blue sky law
unto itself and is the one to which so
much objection has been urged by the
small and independent oil* companies.
As passed in the Senate it requites
every person firm corporation joint
stock company or association incor-
porated and unincorporated. acting by
agreement or declaration of trust or
otherwise before offering or contract-
ing to sell any stock or increased stock
to file under oath in the office of the
secretary of state a statement showing
in full detail the plan upon which the
promoters or those having in charge tht
sale of such stock.
There shall also be filed the forms
of contract stock to be issued the
names location and domicile of all per-
sons who desire to offer for sale such
stock. A bond must be filed with some
surety company with the secretary of
state in an amount not less than $lOOO
nor more than $50000 not to exceed
10 per cent of the stock to be issued
as a guarantee nnd protection for the
investor. Senator Dorrough said the
bill is to put out of existence the wild
cat concerns. The bill limits promo-
tion fees to 15 per cynt.
Judges to Get Increase.
Judges of the higher courts and the
district judges nro to get a raise in their
salaries but not as much as had been
desired. The House has passed to en-
grossment and third reading by a vote
of 82 to 41. the Senate bill by Dean
proposing such increases. The bill as it
came from the Senate proposed to in-
crease the salaries of the judges of the
Supreme Court and Court of Criminal
Appeals from $5OOO to $7500 a year
judges of the nine courts of civil appeals
from $4OOO to $OOOO each a year and
district judges from $3OOO with an ex-
pense account of $5O0 —to $4OOO. The
House by amendment lopped $lOOO a
year from the proposed salaries of the
judges of the Supreme Court' Court of
Criminal Appeals and Courts of Civil
Appcsb but refused to change the
$4OOO limit placed by the Senate in its
bill for district judges; thus the judges
of the Supreme Court ami Court of
Criminal Appeals will got $OOOO a year
and those of the Appellate Courts $5OOO
a year. The Senate has yet to concur
in the amendments made in the House.
This adds $193000 to the cost of the
judiciary annually.
Following the filing in the House of
the report of the committee which
probed the activities of the rangers the
House committee on military affairs has
made favorable rejMirts 'on the ranger
reorganization bill by Representative
Canales nnd the one by Representative
Ford. The latter bill merely amends
the present law governing the ranger
force so ns to require rangers to give
n bond while the Canales bill provides
n plan of reorganization nnd also re-
tains the bond feature.
Miller Offers New Bill.
Representative Barry Miller of Dal-
las. has introduced nn entirely now bill
on the subject. It provides for a reor-
ganization of the force so that it will
consist of seven companies with a total
of 130 mon; one company to be the
headquarters company nnd shall be com-
posed of a captain one lieutenant one
sergeant one corporal and six privates.

This company shall also act as quar-
termaster for the entire force. Each
of the rrmainiug six companies shall
consist of a captain a lieutenant one
sergeant and two corporate and fifteen
privates; captains shall receive $175 a
month lieutenants $125 sergeants $lOO.
corporals $B5 and privates $75. This Is
a general increase of approximately $25
to the salaries of the officers mid slight-
ly less for the privates.
Complete reorganization of the force
is also proposed in a bill introduced to-
day In the Senate by Senator Tage of
Bastrop. The bill is similar to the one
introduced in the House on the same
subject.
Final passage was had in the Sen-
ate to Senate bill by Senator Dudley of
El Paso proposing a comprehensive
mining law for Texas patterned closely
after the federal mining law. The bill
is designed to open for development
public and private lands but does not
apply to prospect nig for oil. gas or
lignite. The bill was so amended as to
provide that royalties shall be paid to
the state as long as operations con-
tinue.
A gross production tax of 5 per cent
is also imposed. Senator Dudley had
also passed finallly his bill seeking to
amend the law as to have an assessment
levied against the mineral rights in
tends sold without reservation to the
state. The purpose of the bill is to
compel the owners of these lands to
either pay a tax or to surrender the
mineral rights and place the land un-
der the mineral rights'.
New Position Created.
Senator Lon Smith of Rusk obtained
the final passage of his bill pro|>osing
the creation of a department of bank-
ing with a banking commissioner of five
years’ experience in banking at a sal-
ary of $6OOO a year. Senator Smith
explained that the enactment of this
measure would not disturb the Depart-
ment of Insurance which is a consti-
tutional office and the commissioner of
insurance shall continue to receive a
salary of $5500 a year. An amendment
by Senator Page was also adopted that
the bill shall not affect the present
commissioner of insurance.
The Seriate has concurred in the
House amendments to the free text book
bill nnd now the measure as soon as
on rolled goes to the governor for ap-
proval. . Senator Barry Hertzberg had
passed in the Senate his bill requiring
reports to be made to county clerks by
dealers in second-hand goods in cities
having n population nf 100000 nr more.
He claimed that this bill was a protec-
tion against “fences” and firms dealing
in stolen and mortgaged property.
Consideration of the Senate bill pro-
posing the creation of a board of con-
trol consisting of three members was
taken up in the Senate today. This
board is to take the place of several
existing departments and will mean also
the abolishment of the boards of control
for the various state educational and
eleemosynary institutions.
A House bill proposing n resurvey
of state tends was re-committed to the
House committee today. A bill carry-
ing a $2001)00 appropriation for the
establishment of a home for dependent
and neglected children which was re-
ferred back V* * committee yesterday
was brought back before the House to-
day on a motion to reconsider the vote
of jcstrrday.

The House todav refused to concur
in Renato amendments to a House joint
resolution promising an amendment to
the Constitution to abolish the fee sys-
tem of paying public officials of the
tate and asked for a free conference
i committee. The Senate amendment pro-
I posed that the Legislature be allowed
authority of exempting such officials
as they raw fit from the operation of
the proposed measure.
The Hou e then took up consideration
of a House bill which proposed the

It is peculiar how skin affections
•produce a sense of desperation and
despondency. The unfortunate ones
are ready to do anything to obtain re-
lief —even cover up the abrasions with
cosmetics in the hope that they will
gradually disappear.
Cease tampering with your skin. To
regain skin health that trouble must
receive proper treatment. Resinol
Ointment and Resinol Soap for years
have brought heartfelt relief to such
sufferers. File upon file of testimonials
bear evidence of this fact. Give this
