Mormon Srakes a strong Plea Tor IN,

Mormon Makes a Strong Plea Tor Jus
tice Before the House.
Debate on the Roberts cas- reports be.
gan in the national House Tuesday,
Chairman Tayler argued for the majority
resolution, which provides for excluding
the Utah member. MI. Eittlefield Of
Maine argued for the minority resolution
to permit Roberts to be sworn in and
then cxpel him. Mr.. Roberts closed the
debate for the day, without. eXhausing
the period allotted to him. He quoted
from the findings Of the committee, and
asked, without a violation Of the con-
stitution of our country can you deny me
the right to appear at the bar of the
House, from Which l have been improper
~ turned AWAY, and prevent INC from
being sworn?"
The House, he continued, was subject
to a great temptation at this time to re-
spond to the popular will, without regard
to the limitations imposed by the consti-
tuition. Other great and proud nations,
as much SO as the United States, had for
violations of this kind gone into decay
and naught but ruins marked the places
they once occupied. "And so l would
warn you Of the danger Of the departing
vi tAC SOhsliluliOn W ICSpOlN = Nv
clamor of misled people," What was pro
posed in the House now, Roberts said,
was that because in the sanctity of the
church men have taken a plurality of
wives, one of whom has been elected q
Representative in Congress, and the sane
tity Of the home is threatened, n more
lawless act than polygamy shall be done
to rebuke the nun so elected. Mr.. Rob
erts said, Is he had said on the second
day Of the session, that he did not stand
as the advocate or defender Of poiygamy.
1t had been conceded by Luther, to
whom more than any other man the PEG.
pie Of to-day W whatever of religions
and civil liberty they possess, that pulyg-
amy was not prohibited by the scriptures,
and that it was a crime merely because
1t was prohibited by law. The people who
believed and practiced polygamy, he said,
did SO as a part Of their religion, which
they believed came to them direct from
God. In that view they had not at frs
submitted to the laws against 1t, hoping
for a favorable Judgment by the court
and when that failed, for a reversal. Bui
the reversal did not come. Thirteen hun
' bred Mormons in Utah suffered punish.

ment by the courts, including the Repre-
sentative from that State. ..They need
not have suffered" he went on, 'if they
had but said the word"
The laws against plural marriages did
not obtain in the States surrounding
utah, SO that many plural wives had been
sent into them, the husbands remaining
IN Utah and there observing the law
against plural marriages. Roberts said
1T was q mistake to hold that he was
the representative of the Mormon church.
chosen over the protest of the gentle citi-
zens. He had been elected after q thor
ough canvass, in which the people knew
an about him, by II plurality Of $685..
Ihe right of q constituency to the free
choice of its representative ought not be
denied or abridged by the action of the
House.
In conclusion Roberts said he could
neither be excluded nor expelled without
dangerous action-action that threatened
to overthrow the foundation Of Govern
ment. "And l intend, gentlemen" he
continued, his voice rising to its highest
pitch, and his whole manner intense and
dramatic to the last degree, striding up
and down the aisle, ito cling so closely
to the pillars Of liberty that you shall not
drag me away unless you pull the pillars
down with me-"
The House resumed the debate on the
Roberts case at II o'clock Wednesday.
The galleries were again well filed, most
OF the occupants, as on Tuesday, being
women. Mr.. Powers (Vt.) was the first
speaker. he argued in behalf of exclu-
sion Of MI. Roberts. The contention Of
the minority for expulsion, he said, ran
up against the very precedents which
were cited in it's support. 1--WE are not
separating wife from husband" said MI.
Powers. commenting on Mr.. Roberts
speech. "Polygamy has never been legal
in Utah, either before or after her adj
mission into the Union. Polygamy was
illegal under the common law of Eng
land. The moment he took wife No. p
the marriage was void. Mr.. Roberts
knew the law. He cannot now plead the
baby act against the law and stern JUS
tice."
Mr.. Snodgrass of Tennessee followed
Mr.. Powers, supporting the views of the
minority in favor of seating and then
expelling Mr.. Roberts. Mr.. Lands Und.)
argued that Utah had violated her COM
pact with the United States. Mr.. Lands
went over the record Of the apostles of
the Mormon Church to show that most
of them were guilty Of continued polyg-
amous practices. Some of his statements
were sensational.

master to examine the testimony in the
case and make u finding of facts from that
and the necessary computation, and to re-
port to the. court there for such further
proceedings as may be necessary.
The bill was filed Aug. q, 1897, and
Ats object was to enjoin the defendants
.Aom putting into effect certain proposed
reductions in the rates of complainant for
carrying freight and passengers in South
Dakota. The bill alleged that the then
existing rates charged by complainant in
South Dakota were just and reasonable;
that the rates promulgated by the defend
ants were unjust and unreasonable; that
they would not afford complainant ade-
squlte compensation for the service to be
pevformed, and that the order of the COM
M%iSsiOners, if enforced, would operate to
take compliments property without just
compensation and without due process of
law, and would derive complainant of the

-traversing the allegations of the bill, in
ssisting that the proposed rates were just
and reasonable and alleging that the COM
plainant's rates were. unjust and unrea-
