BILL APPEALING MINE RUN LAW
 PASSED SENATE
Business Picking Up in Upper House Hold Session Tuesday Until , O'clock. Pass Ferguson Bill
 to Re-Submit Publicity

picked up in the Senate Tuesday after noon, and before adjournment at the scandously late hour of 5 o'clock, the Cazort bill repeating the mine run law In Johnson and part of Logan coun- ty had been passed, the Miller and Condrey House bill repeating state aid for high schools had been killed, and the Smith bill repeating the Arkansas Acturial Bureau, defeated on Monday afternoon, had been reconsidered and put in a position for another vote upon its passage Monday afternoon.
 In addition to this the Senate pass ed the Ferguson bill to resubmit the Publicity Act to the people, read the Robertson bill to repeal sections of the Child Labor law, and four other local House bills, passed the Rorex bill for the working of roads in Yell county, the Crowell private pension act, and the Collier bill prohibiting the sale of liquor within ten miles of Lincoln.
 Senator Collins also offered a resolu- tion that the visiting committees for state educational institutions, which had been appointed on his previous motion, be dispensed with in order to save this expense to the state. On motion of Senator Moore the resolu- ton was postponed until August 3 for further action.
 The debates of the afternoon were restricted, apparently by common con sent, to- the Smith Acturial Bureau reconsideration and the repeal of the state aid to the high school bill The former discussion took the aspect of dog chasing it's tail before Senator Moore of Phillips,( who was in the chair, stopped the rapid evolution of the Senate, individually and collective Ily, by ruling out of order few score of motions, and declaring that the bill was again subject to a third reading and would be privileged matter on the next Senate day, which is Monday, because of the adjournment which will come Wednesday night until that time Parliamentary procedure consumed the time on the Smith bill, while the dis cussion on the Miller-C Condray measure was entirely on the merits. About half of the Senators spoke for or against the state aid to high schools repeal, and those not on the floor were urging others on or interrupting to ask questions.
 What was reasonably considered a days work had been done when the Miller Condray bill was called up. Senator Ruff opened the argument against the bill Senators Going Greenhouse, Ruff, Bush, Davenport, spoke in favor of the existing condi- tions, and the rejection of the repeal bill. Senators Futrell, Kendall, Col lins, Edmondson, and Ashley opposed it. Senator Jones and Senator Cabi- ness closed in opposition to the bill. The constitutionality of the measure adopted in 1913 was raised by Senator Futrell, who declared that the school money could not be spent Tn this manner. The roll call for repeal was as follows:-
