SENTIMENT OF HOUSE
IS AGAINST ROBERTS
Poll Of Representatives Shows
That Only Two Openly De-
clare They Favor the
Polygamist.
For Roberts, Against ROberts-l23 NOn-cOm=
initial but mainly opposed to ROberts-l34 Total 259

In a careful poll Of the members of the
House Of Representatives, made by The
Call on the question of permitting Brig
ham II. Roberts, the Mormon member
from Utah, TO take his seat. the views OF
more than two-thirds Of the membership
have been obtained. or this number only
two-one from Michigan and one from
Georgia-declare themselves In favor OF
admitting Mr. Roberts. regardless OF the
charge brought against him. The Calls
canvass shows an overwhelming senti-
ment in favor OF unseating the member
elect from Utah.
While more than one-third Of the MEM
bers express themselves emphatcally as
intending 10 vote 10 unseat Mr. Roberts,
this proportion does not by any means in
dicate the whole number OF those who
viii so vote. Many new members who
have not yet taken their seats are disin-
clined TO express their opinions for publ
cation. There are many who take the
ground that il would be improper for
them 10 announce in advance their opin-
ion in a case on which they are 10 sit in
judgment. In almost every instance these
members, while giving non-committal in
terviews for publication. privately admit
that they expect the evidence 10 be such
as 10 warrant them in voting against Mr..
Roberts.
II is probable that Mr. Roberts will be
sworn in. when Congress assemblies. Then
will come the proceedings TO eXpel him
Mr.. Roberts declines.to discuss his case.
Upon being informed Of the strength OF
the opposition. he declared: The mem
bers have prejudiced the case"
