GOVERNOR'S VETO.
Otellnct to Approvs tha Vary Radical
Insurance Bill.
Austin, April 24.—Governor I^sn-
ham today vetoed the Insurance com-
pany venue bill. This was a senate
UIH and was one of the most radical
measures passed at the regular ses-
sion of the legislature It provided,
among other things, that "If any In-
nurture company organised under the
law* of any other state or country,
having obtained a certificate of au
thortty from the commissioners of In-
surance to do business in Texas shall
make application for a change of yen
ue or to move any salt or action to
which It I* a party, heretofore or here-
after commenced In any court of this
state to the United State* district
or circuit court, or any federal court;,
the state commissioner of Insurance
shall not renew authority of such In-
surance company to do business In
this state for a period of three years.
In his veto communication, the gov-
ernor nays. In part: "I eanhot be-
lieve that It Is a proper thing to de-
prive any litigant of a positive right
or take from him any privilege enjoy-
ed because he may make application
for a change of venue In a suit In
court."
Ho cites court decision* In support
of this view and say* further: "Their
have been other decisions of the
courts bearing upon similar subject
matter and. while I am unprepared to
say that they all sustain the doctrine
announced in the case mentioned, I
am of the opinion that the amend-
ment. here proposed would be rejected
by the courts. It Is not questioned
that the state may Impose reasonable
terms upon foreign companies and re-
qulr* them to obtain permits to trans-
act their business within the state,
but i do not believe that it would go
to the extent of shutting the door in

Kama* City Capitalist* Inspect Pow-
sessions Near Comanche.
Comanche, I. T., April 24 —A spec-
ial car with a party of prominent Kan-
sas City capitalists headed by Mr
Neff, the mayor of Kansas City, arriv-
ed at Comanche, I. T., over the Rock
island Sunday morning. The party
was composed of the director* of the
Crescent Asphalt company, and the
object of the visit was the inspection
of the Company's property located
some twenty miles due cast of Co-
manche. The company own* 200 acres
of extremely rich asphalt beds, one
and one-half miles from the site of
the Tar Spring plant, which was burn-
ed something over a year ago. These
beds are composed of soft asphaltum
sand, running at least 15 per cent of
asphalt and 10 per cent of oil; the
bed* are near the surface and are
easily mined by means of plows and
scrapers. The surface beds are from
twelve to fifteen feet thick and contin-
ue down. Interrupted by layers of blue
ahale.
The asphaltic sand Is easily and In-
expensively refined by steam and hot
water, and when so refined makes the
highest grade of pure asphalt. It a
crude state mixed with rock or other
hardening substance it.makes an ex-
cellent paving.
The company expects to erect a re-
finery at once. The question of rail-
road transportation has also been ta-
ken up.

No Restriction In Matter of Rebate*
by Railroads for United States.
Washington. April 25,—The attor-
ney general today sustained the sec-
retary of the Interior In his rebate
Agreement with railroads in connec-
tion with tho transportation of ma-
terial for reclamation purposes. The
law which the attorney general Inter-
prets as governing the case Is con-
tained in section 22 of the Interstate
commorc act.. H# language is:
"That nothing In this act shall ap-
ply to the carriage, storage or hand-
ling of property free or reduced rates
for the United States."
/ The attorney general says:
"The Intention of section 22 of the
act to regulate commerce was to give
express sanction to any arrangement
between the United Slates, state or
tmmiclpa! governments und railroad
companies by which those govern-
ments might relieve themselves of
(he transportation In whatever form
It might assume and the section
should be construed to glvo effect to
that Intention."
In another part of his opinion Ue
says:
"That in those cases where the
fact that the United States receive*
the whole concession and the con-
tractors none, then neither the spirit
nor the letter of the act to regulate
commerce has ben violated,”
