The bill puts dis pensers and 0. P. agents on a foot ing and requires the agencies to give up 20 per cent, of their gross profits. If passed it will be in teresting to watch its progress through the courts. There was no session of the State senate Saturday and the house only remained in session about three hours. A large num ber of third reading bills were disposed of. Mr. YV. S. Smith made a strong fight on his bill to repeal the metropolitan police act, which he characterized as most obnoxious and contrary to the rights of self-government. Mr. Winkler took the position that it was on the books merely to secure a better enforcement and observ ance of law. On a roll call the bill was killed by a vo.te of 51 to 34. The bill to regulate building and loan associations was discussed a while and then the debate was ad journed. Mr. McCullough’s bill requiring notes and mortgages to be listed for taxation was discuss ed at length and then killed by a vote of 46 to 43. There was really no other legislation.
