AMENABLE TO THE
STATUTE OF 1907
'Atttorney General'i Decision aa to
Companies Organized Under Cor-
poration Lav of 1899. 1
(Houston Pott Sfcial.)
a AUSTIN. Texas- March ." 0. The At-"
torney General' Department gave an
opinion today to Hon. T L. Foster mem-
ber of Die House tn regard to the issues
that seem to have arisen out of Senate
bill No. 7 by Bailey.
This bill proposes to validate the char-
ters of all oil companies and amendments
.thereto that have been organised under
the act of 18S and that were filed prior
to the taking effect of the Revised Civil
Statutes of 1911. t
- It seems that certain oil companies or-
ganised under the act of 1899 had filed
amendments to their-charters increasing-
their capital stock since the passage of
the law of 1907 which requires the 'total
. amount of capital stock to be subscribed '
and 60 per cent thereof paid down and
the balance to be paid ; In two years and
all such companies contend that the pro-
visions of the act of 1907 dotaot apply.
- It seems that during the administration
or Attorney General Davidson an opinion
was. Issued from: the Attorney General's
Department supporting the contention of
these oil companies.
This act
la intended to validate all such
cnaners and amendments as It seems
i It
' that some question has been raised as to
me validity. Kepresentauve Foster called
eh the department for a ruling and In a
lengthy opinion the department answered
that these corporations formed under the
act of 1899 were amenable to the provi-
sions of the act of 1907 ' and that all
amendments Increasing the capital stock
that did not have the full amount of the
Increase subscribed and SO per cent there -.
of paid were Illegal and said amendments
should not have been filed.
The opinion is quits lengthy but holds
In substance that: the act of 1907 was a
general law that It did not pretend to be
- an amendment of any particular chapter
. or article. That la was applicable toUl
private corporations alike ' except those
expressly exempted from Its 'provisions;
that the- act Of 1899 simply provided for
the formation of corporations for addU
tional purposes and with additional now-
- era to those already authorized and that f
. eaia act simpiy Decame a part or the
private corporation laws 'of this State:'
that the act Is to be considered in part
materia with the corporation code of the

State and when thus treated' was subject
to the general provisions- with reference
to the amendments adopted by the Leg-
islature; that the. charter of the corpora-
tions formed under the general tw con-
sists not only of the articles of associa-
tion but also of the general statutes of
the State under which the organisation
takes place. -
The conclusion is drawn that the view
of power of the Legislature to amend all
Its charters and In 'view of the fact that
the act of 1899 to be construed as In pari
materia with the other laws of the Bute
constituting the corporation code that
the act of 1907 was applicable to all cor-
porations -formed un4jn- the act of 1899
the same as other private corporations
organised for profit. - '
Attention Is further ' called to the fact
that the act of 1907 Is a general act-but
that- certain named corporations are ex-
cepted from itsprovisions. The class of
corporations organised under the act of
1899 not being among the exceptions and
that the Mtw being general this class of
corporations not being specially excepted
are to be considered as coming under Us
provisions unoer a wen . Known rule or
statutory construction and the general
conclusion Is reached that aH such com-
panies are required before increasing their
capital stock to have the total-amount
subscribed and 50 per cent thereof .paid

Tort f Worth Attorney' Selection
l'r Wj Opposed .by-id IstMater '
: y Sam H. Cowan.
(Houston Pett Spftat.)
EL PASO Texas Jlarch HO. The
thirty-seventh annual convention of the
Cattle i Raisers' ; Association i of - Texas
elosed its deliberations here today li-
the re-election .of former officers choos-
ing Fort Worth as the next meeting
place and experiencing probably 4 tne
stormiest session ever in its history.
For the. first time in the life of tne
association it took a new departure re-
garding the matter of employing its at-
torney in that It Instructed Al M. Mc-
Faddin ax president to reappoint Cowan
A Burney attorneys for the association.
The matter was fought out In con-
vention during an hour of Impassioned
speeches during which some of the most
rugged old cowmen of Texas wpt and
cheered. - It was universally known that
McFaddln was hostile to Cowan as at-
torney for the association. Hence a plan
was arranged to defeat the president in
this matter. Ed C. Lasater of r'alf ur-
rias was a bitter opponent of Cowan a
it developed later. At an opportune time
In the routine proceedings George W.
Armstrong of Fort Worth presented a-
resolution . that the . association instruct
the president that the firjn of Cowan ek
Burney.be re-employed another year.
. Ed LasaterWas Csustle.'
Ed C. Lasater who was seated on the
stage walked quickly to the front ana
with sarcasm said: ."Mr; Chairman that
resolution should go " farther; it should
read to-turn the association over' to the
legal department. And when you turn
the "association over to a click you be-
gin to disintegrate. I stand upon the
proposition that the association 1s su-
perior to any individual."
Then the storm broke. J. H. ' Parra-
more the veteran cowman of Abilene
bitterly assailed the stand taken by
Lasater and defending Cowan.' Colonel
Par ram ore referred- to bia 85 years' of
membership In the association then to
the "youngsters" who were now "too
precocious. Looking at Lasater Parra-
more said: "What are you trying to do;
are you going to take a faithful old cow-
horse after ' years of. service and turn
him out to starve? t
"I am one who will care for that old
horse. I plead with you boys; let's don't
split up this convention."
The wonds of the gray-haired Parra-
more brought wild cheering from the big
assemblage of cowmen. ".
i ' I ' i Cslla n for Harmony.
Theft there were calls for James Callan
until the former president who tried all
week to prevent this same trouble from
breaking out took the floor and pleaded
for harmony Callan said-:
'If the time has come wien your at-
torney can dictate to your president then
put him- out."
- And.. Callan continued by paying a high
tribute to Cowan' stating that the at-
torney's influence at Washington was
strong and his ability and personality
were highly respected rjy v weigmy law-
makers of both parties at the National
Capital.:
Joseph F. Green of . Gregory
spoke
against the resolution.- Ike T. Pryor i
r oaid
a trlbtkte to Cowan's ability. Julian
sett of Clarendon defended Cowan. George
Hendricks of San Angelo spoke in Cow-
an's behalf."''';'. '. '
Attorney I. H. Burney. Cowan's part-
ner made an impassioned address de-
fending the character of Cowan. Bur-
ney's oratory mad many of the cowmen
weep and tremble with excited interest.
Burney said that he realised no war was
being made upon himself; that his name
had net been brought Into the matter
but that he would not serve the associa-
tion without his partner- "We rise or
fall .together" said the lawyer.
Rising Vote Favored Cowan.
" There'" were- vehement calls for the
question the ' original Resolution which
Armstrong had presented declaring It
the sense of the convention that McFad-
dln re-employ Cowan. 'It was by a rising
vote -and but few cattlemen voted against
it. When It was seen that Cowan had
been indorsed and tunned for another yeas
aa attorney for the 'association he was
cheered and made to' address the con-
vention. . He spoke but briefly express-
ing appreciation and saying his heart was
too full .of gratitude to "say more. .. -
As . the . proceedings . to instruct the
president tn' the matter -of employing an
attorney Is a new departure' 11 was later
stated- .by some members of the associa-
tion that it Is possible that the precedent
and the feeling stirred today will prove
harmful to.Ulie association - V"-'
