seating Clark OF Montana.
Harris. OF Kansas. indicated the most
pronounced leaning toward leniency for
Clark. He did not express any doubt
that there had been a lavish expendl-
ture OF money in Clark's behalf, but
spoke In terms of strong condemnation
OF the tactics pursued by some of
Clark's opponents. Pettus practically
agreed with Harris. These two sena-
tors also expressed doubt OF the justi-
fication OF the conclusion drawn by the
majority of the committee that Clark's
candidacy for the senate began in Aug
ust, 1898, when he returned to Butte
from New York. The effect of this
conclusion was to charge up the entire

expended in his campaign for the SEN
