publican ticket have been elected on

Ellis and Pryor signed the majority re-
port, In which they held that, as a
board OF canvassers, they have no
right to go behind the returns OF the
county boards that their duties are
purely ministerial as canvassers. and
that the face OF the returns as re-
ceived by them from the counties show
the election Of the Republican State
ticket. Accordingly the report says,

Extensive preparations are being
made to lnaugurate Taylor next Tues

Whether a contest will be made in
the legislature Is really yet to be de-
termined. II will depend very largely
upon the wording Of the opinion which
Commissioners Ellis and Pryor VIII
hand down at 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning. II II implies that the com
mlssioners believe fraud was committed
which might invaldate the election.

conclusively that the compact Includes
the discontlnuance or old polygamous

"Flrst-That In Utah 1900 illegltlmate

"Second-That about 1000 pOlygamous

"Fourth-That the very men who In

"Fifth-The most OF the same men
who. in a petition for amnesty, pledged
their sacred horor for the obedience Of
the law by their people are now, by
example and precept, encouraging the
commission Of the crime Of unlawful

"Sixth-As further evidence Of this
bad faith, we call attention TO the fact
that the men holding high Church Of

Of unlawful cohabltation before the
State courts. without having their
