Tuesday, Tues-day, when the debate was resumed, a motion prevailed to the effect that the house should not ndjonrn until a final vote had been taken. This resulted in a session that continued until shortly after 7 o'clock. The rollcall of votes wns interrupted by a call of the house, and serjeants-at-arms were sent out to summon absent member" who had prown restless under the lentrthy and sometimes monotonous arguments, during which an en'atuTl-in en'atuTl-in if array of figures and statistics was cited. Representaive Iverson of Roxeldcr eounfv, who introduced the bill, ended the debate with an cloipient plea which lusted the better part of two hours Throughout the contest he had been practically alone in the defense of the measure, only one or two other mcm-j hers havin" attempted to rise to his! eupport. Their rtT.irts were brief. Mr.J Iverson made a courageous stand fur the measure, and conducted his side, so decorously that his most ardent opponents in debate hurried to extend hini ronpratu'.ations at the close of the session. A bill p'oposinc: to repeal all but one section of the Southwiek an'.iripr-ret lsw and substituting for the remainder remain-der a license on traffic in cipsrets which, it is estimated, would produce a revenue of JloO.PnO to the s'ate general gen-eral fund, was introduced in the s'nte senate bv Senator Henry N. Standish of Salt l ake. The measure makes it unlawful to pell c:crf's or c:care papers w'th n the state of I'tah without a permit. This permit may be issued by the ritv or town authorities for an incorporated community, or by the county covn-ntissionprs. covn-ntissionprs. an I is optional, therefore. wi-h the local authorities.
