His High Sense of Duty.
Mr. Tayler then OPENED his speech
in favor of the adoption of his resolu-
ton. He would not urge its adoption,
he said. were he not prompted by a high
sense OF duty. The constitution was
consistent, he continued, if it was. con-
tended that the limitations it imposed
We're not to be added to. The power of
congress to halt the claimant at the
door, he insisted was clear.
The ineligibility created by convic-
ton for crime was a power inherent in
government, irrespective of the consti-
tuition. He cited several cases TO show
that as punishment for crime, the
legislature had ample authority to dis
qualify a man from holding Office.
When Mr.. Tayler began to speak Mr..
Roberts left the seat he had been oc-

Continuing. Mr.. Tayler read a de-
cision of the supreme court defining
polygamy, which stated, irrespective of
whether a man had contracted a plural

he had since cohabited with a plural

Law of Civilization.
Referring again to. the two proclama-
tons of amnesty, he argued that the
claimant was in no better position
than he would have been had no such

which demanded that one so tainted
should be excluded. For. supposine

ROBERTS AT TIMES WAS
FIERCE AND DEFIANT
His Remarkable Speech That Won
Sympathy From the Galleries.

Washington, Dec. 5.-After an inter
esting debate of three hours the house
today, by a vote of S02 TO so. adopted
the resolution offered by Mr.. Tayler of
Ohio yesterday for the appointment OF
a special committee TO investigate the
charges against Brigham H. Roberts,
the Mormon representa- tive-elect from
Utah.
Previously the house had rejected a
substitute resolution offered by MIR.
Richardson, the leader of the minority
TO allow Mr.. Roberts to be sworn in
and to send the whole case to the judi
ciary committee. This substitute reso-
luton, however. by no means COM
manded the full Democratic strength.
Only fifty-seven members voted for it.
OF the thirty who then voted against
the Tayler resolution all were Demo-
Gratis except two. Mr.. Loud, a Califor-
MIA Republican, and Mr.. Newlands. a
silverite from Ne>ada
BY the terms OF the resolution Mr.
Roberts IS not only excluded from all
participation in the proceedings of the
house until the committee reports and
the house passes upon his case. but he
is denied a seat in the hall. Whether
this will be interpreted to deny him ad-
mission within the chamber pending the
disposition Of his case is YET to be de-
cided
Proceedings Were Dramatic
The reading of the presidents mes
sage was completely overshadowed by
the dramatic proceedings which result
ed in the action of the house today. The
galleries were thronged with spectators,
mostly women, who sat patiently
through the three weary hours that
preceded the debate. and then waited
on three hours more until il was con-
cluded.
The most remarkable feature of the
debate was the fact that Mr. Roberts

In Open Gaze of World.
I'VE are told" said Mr. Tayler, in
conclusion, his voice ringing out clear
~, that we are about to create an un-
happy precedent. Why, Mr.. Speaker
we are doing this in the open gaze of
the whole world, not in a cloistered
court we are the servants of the
people, empowered to do the right as
we see it. The public eye is upon US,
the public conscience quickens US. In
that presence we can do no wrong if
we do hut obey it,"
Mr.. Tayler's concluding remarks were
greeted with storm of applause both
from the floor and the galleries. The
Democrats, however, Joined in the ap-
Slause.
Mr.. Richardson, the minority leader,
followed Mr.. Tayler. He did not in
tend, he said. to discuss the merits of
the case. The question in issue was as
to whether the epresentative-eiect
Roberts, had a prima facie right. to his
seat. He was not willing to reject
epresentative-elect who appeared at
the bar of the house with his creden-
tfals in due FORM If he was denied ad-
mission a precedent would be created
which would rise to plague the house in
years to come.
No Constitutional Grounds.
The only constitutional objection
raised against the member-efect related
to his naturalization, and that Mr.
Richardson asserted would not hold He
defied the other side to produce a single
precedent where objection was raised
to the administration of the oath ex-
cept on constitutional grounds The
precedents cited were made during the
war and were not to be relied on. In
those days the constitution was written
with the sword They had all been
since overuled after the passions that
the war had subsided
Mr.. Richardson declared that the mi
nority was in no wise bound by his po-
sition- He spoke for himself alone. Hei
was willing to say that if the charges
against the member -elect were proven
he should favor his expulsion.
