The senate passed 8. F. 30, to reduce the rate of interest on county deposits to 2 per cent, instead of 3 per cent, as the pres- ent law provides. Should this bill become & law it is claimed by the Douglas senators it would mean much to Douglas county, and instead of getting no interest on county deposits it would realize a large sum. Sloan of Fillmore wants to repeal the law relating to free school books and in- troduced a bill to that effect. The introduction of 8. F. 62, to repeal the lien law and substjtute a lien for labor only has brought forth objections from the orghuized lumber dealers of the state, who insist they are entitled to protection against irrésponsible and dishonest contrac- tors and people who erect buildings. Senate Routine. President Harrison called the senate to order at 10 o'clock. The engrossing committee reported the following bills properly emgrossed: S.
