"When as the Commission which built the Capitol was completing its labors, it was discovered that there was in the Capitol Tax Fund a surplus over and above what was required to complete the building and to pay principal and interest on the bonds which had been issued to secure funds for the erection of the Capitol, and when it was decided that this money could lawfully be used only upon the Capitol, the Forty-ninth General Assembly passed a law authorizing this Commission to proceed with the decoration of the Capitol"--Page 9
