There was a full gallery and a large number of houso members were on the senate floor when the debate de-bate was In progress during tho afternoon aft-ernoon When the motion by Senator Edward Southwick to strike the enacting enact-ing clause from the Ivers bill had carried car-ried by a good, loud chorus of ayes." opposed only by a few scattered and rather feeble "nav" votes. Ihe house members filed out. Soon reports began be-gan to trickle back to the senate of Nummary action on (he pari of the house by the -uik-ing of the enacting I clauses from several senale measures. DEBATE SLOW. The senate spent much time in read-j read-j ing the Ivers bill and still more time j Irving to assimilate the mass of house amendments which greatly changed the tenor of the bill from the lorm in which It was introduced. When the measure had reached the debating stage, debate was rather slow to begin. be-gin. Senator W II. Smart stepped into the breach by saying that Salt Lake, as the stale capital, is a state ciiy rather than a local one, and therefore representatives of the counties take an active interest in how it is gov- erned. CAREY BILL KILLED There was little discussion of ihe bills on third reading yesterday The Carey bill, designed to permit counties coun-ties to sell iheli equities in lands on which taxes became delinquent, was killed by a vote of six to nine, with three absent Voting for the measure were senators (leorge II.

PAKAGE LABELING DEFINED Theie was some discussion over the bill covering packages of fruits, vegetables vege-tables and seeds, since one proviso Was that the par kei tnighi label the variety of the Contents as "unknown." j This was first amended out ol tb,e bill j entirely by Senator Jones, but afterwards after-wards the bill was reinstated long enough to leave the provision in as pertaining to fruits and vegetables The bill now leaves it up to the pack er to describe the seeds he Is selllug. Senator Peters explained the provi lion that the duties of the secretary of the slate securities commission iball be combined with some other state office, is covered In another bill, and for that reason the adverse repon on the Howell bill, to give these duties i i the corporations clerk In the office of Bsoretar) ql state va.- adopted, and the bill killed.
