Special Dispatch to The Call.

SALT LAKE, March 6.-The Legis-
lative Investigating Committee sub
mitted a majority and minority report
to the joint assembly this afternoon.
The majority report is signed by Sena-
tor Whitney and Representative Stew
art Mansfield, Sorensen and Cum
mings. The minority report is signed
by Senators Shurtliff and Howells. The
findings of the majority report are as
follows:
cry preferred by Representative Law
against A. w. McCune we find, after the
most careful consideration, that the
charge is not sustained by the evidence
q In the SlOan-Nebeker case we find
that the said r. w Sloan improperly ap-
preached Senator w, G. Nebeker for the
port for Mr.. McCune, but the evidence
does not establish an attempted bribery
or other public Offense.
8. In the Ivins-JackSon case the evil
dence is not sufficient to justify the. con-
clusion that any attempt was made to
secure by improper means Mr.. Jackson's
vote. We believe that in this case Mr..
Jackson labored under an honest but mis-
taken impression.
l. The-evidence in the Cook-Farr mat
ter is so remote that we deem 1t irrele-
want to any issue under consideration.
The Lapish charge-,a supplemental case
is one in which the evidence bearing
upon the statement made Is not sufficient
to warrant the finding of an attempted
bribery or other public offenses
In conclusion, we record our emphatic
disapproval of the present method of con-
Quoting Senatorial campaigns, particular
ly the practice by Senatorial candidates
Of opening headquarters, employing num-
erous assistants and entertaining by
means of free dinners, free theaters and
other gratuitous dispensations, persons
whose votes are desired by the candidates
at whose expense these. things are pro
vded. 1t not only tends to evil, but IT
works evil and in the interest of good
government, pure elections and that
higher political morality which all good
citizens desire to see attained, the prac-
tice should be abolished. We also con-
denim the circulation of unfounded ru-
mors designed to injure the prospects of
Senatorial candidates.
The specific finding in the minority
report is that A. w. McCune did, by
the use of money, attempt to secure the
vote of Albert A. Law, and that r. w.
Sloan sought by improper means to Sc
cure the vote of State Senator w. G..
Nebeker for Mr.. McCune for United
States Senator.
After the reading of the reports the
joint assep bly, adjourned until $3.50 to-
morrow morning, when the reports will
be taken up for discussion.

WASHINGTON. March 6.

Call Headquarters, Wellington Hotel,
WASHINGTON, March 6.
There has been considerable specula-
ton as to the effect upon the conditions
in the Hawaiian Islands owing to the
failure of Congress to enact the legis-
lation demanded.
Representative Hit of Illinois, chair
man of the Committee on Foreign At
fairs in the last Congress. who was one
of the Hawaiian commissioners, is
probably as conversant with Hawaiian
affairs as any public man in Washing
ton. Mr.. Hit was asked to-day for an
expression of opinion upon what may
be expected in Hawaii between this
time and the reassembling of Congress
and the enactment of proper laws.
II am by no means inclined to take a
hopeless view of the situation" said
Mr.. HIT. 1T is true that embarrass-
ments will arise. For instance,-a strict
construction of the existing law, or
rather absence of law, would permit
criminals to go free because of the con-
fict between the United States laws
and local regulations. But 1t is not to
be considered that any such construc-
ton will be placed upon the case. The
courts will see to it that public order
is conserved.
Another great source Of difficulty
Will be in the determination Of admiral
ty questions. AS a matter of fact, they
will not be determined. but the people
VIII have to worry along as best they
can. AS for customs questions, think
the President will have sufficient pow
er, in the absence of specific legislation,
to settle them
"I believe that when the next Con-
gress convenes 1t will be possible to Sc
cure consideration for the Hawaiian
bill and to enact comprehensive law
for the islands. In the meantime, the
ability and integrity of the men in
charge of the government will be suf-
fcient safeguard for the interests of the
| people"

longing to the Santa Clara County Fruit
Exchange voted unanimously to join the
new association. The meeting. was an
enthusiastic one. President Philo Hersey
presided. D. NJ. Delmas explained the
objects of the new organization, and the
discussion that followed showed the unan-
unity Of the growers. 1t was decided to
call a special meeting of the Fruit Elk
change on March % to take formal action
IN joining the prune association.
Already hundreds of fruit men, repre-
senting thousands of acres of prunes
have Joined, and now that the Fruit Elk
change comes in, It's success Is assured.
The Santa Clara County Fruit Exchange
is the largest handler of dried fruits on
the coast, and smaller associations in the
county, such as the West Side, Berry
Unions, will follow it. All these organ
izations will abide by the price and rules
of the Pacific Coast Fruit Association.
This means Increased prices for growers.
