The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1897-03-15

The senate yesterday disregarded tn,
governors suggestions for the amend
ment of the code law, and repassed tn,
bill over his veto.
Changes were made in the form O.
the eight-hour law, and the senate ex
poets that the bill, in it's present garb
Will be given the gubernatorial sane
ton.
The debate on the eight-hour clause
OF the bill was vigorous and vinegar
lsh. The majority report sanctioned
the veto of this clause, but the ire Of
the minority beat like the lashing OF
waves against the condemnation of the
eight-hour provision. The bill, as il
emerged, tattered and torn from the
linguistic war. was in reality new
one.
An amendment by Harbour changed
the labor enactment, so that the Sec
ton now makes the eight-hour clause
binding, but makes no stipulation as
to the salary to be paid.
The appropriations bill was disposed
of at last nights session, and it is
probable that a final adjournment will
be taken tonight.
