This law established the normal school in San Marcos, now Texas State University.

Materials include one complete and one incomplete draft of House Bill 696 of the 26th Regular Session of the Texas Legislature (1899). The summary of the proposed bill reads: "An act to provide for establishing, governing, and maintaining a State normal school at San Marcos as to be known as the 'Southwest Texas Normal School.'" A subsequent version of this text became SB260, the legislation that officially authorized the creation of the institution now known as Texas State University.
