BILLS THAT HAVE PASSED.
A List of New Laws Since the Last
Report.

Report.
Governor Mead has sent to the
House his sixth veto of the session.
This was House bill 557, an act to
protect the purity of registered
stock. The reason given by the gov
ernor for his veto is that this bill
is almost identical with section
$3.50 of the public statutes If this
bill should become law without the
repeal of existing statutes, great I'M
certainty and confusion might arise
in connection with the enforcement
of two similar laws. The house later
sustained the veto.
