It has been brought about by a bitter experience, but the lesson learned thereby is all the more likely to be profitable and permanent. For nearly two years there has been an almost entire cessation of railroad building, so far as the trunk line systems are concerned. This condition has hin dered general business to such an ex tent that the Oklahoma Federation of Commercial Clubs has taken up the matter. A circular has been issued by that body setting forth the facts in this regard. It has been demonstrated clearly to the satisfaction of the federation that new capital cannot be attracted for investment in the state until the laws are settled upon a fair and con servative basis, so that the capital in vested may have reason to expect legitimate returns.
