EXPRESSIONS At MANTI.
Roberts Agitation Has Strengthened
the Democratic Party.
Especial Correspondence.)

g
Mantt Jan. 2.-The following opin-
ions fully express the sentiments Of the
whole party in this city:
James w. Cherry-The exclusion Of
B. II. Roberts from his seat in con-
gress, in my judgment, was irregular
and illegal. The action of the house
was in obedience to a popular clamOr.
created by the local political opponents
of Mr.. Roberts, against which estab-
hshed rules and forms could not stand
The action of congress was emotional
not reasonable
William T. Reid regard the action
Of congress as wrenching from the
people of Utah their constitutional
rights, and feel that the state can do
no less than elect some representative
Democrat to occupy the vacant seat in
the house Of congress
John H. Hougaard-The refusal to
allow Mr.. Roberts to take his seat. to
which he was fairly elected by the peo-
pie, il seems to me, was a violation Of
the constitutional provisions governing
such cases. and is without precedent in
the history of the country. ] hope and
believe Utah will elect another good
Democrat to succeed him.
Alexander Tenant am disappOint-
ed at the outcome of the case, and re-
greet that Mr.. Roberts could not serve.
The Democratic party elected B. H.
Roberts and the party viii also elect
his successor.
Harry ". Matthews think congress
exceeficd its authority in excluding Mr
Roberts. He should have been seated
and then expelled, if the evidence war
ranted it. From extended travels I
am free TO say that the chances for
Democratic success in the state have
been materially strengthened.
w B Richey-While regretting the
house took action illegally against b.
H. Roberts, I still have a warm place
in my heart for him. Give US William
II. King and Sanpete will give him a
handsome majority
L. A. Lauber-I heartily endorse the
resolution introduced in the Texas leg
islature. Now that congress has com
menced on its job Of moral house
cleaning, hope the work VIII be kept
up ad infinitum,

EPHRAIM DEMOCRATS HOPEFUL
People VIII Resent the Action of the
Storm Starters.
Especial COTrespondence.)

Nop6Cldl OOILtS puilucllCc-y
Ephraim, Jan. 27.-The Democrats Of
this city are sanguine of rolling up a
Democratic majority in the state in
case a special election is called by the
governor, but many of them are OPP
posed to having an election held before
November on account of the expense
it will put the state to- The following
views were expressed by leading Demo-
Gratis of this place today.
John DOrius, Jr.-NOw that 3. H.
Roberts has been expelled another con-
gresham should be elected as soon as
possible. Utah should not be without
representation any longer than is abso-
lutely necessary. The people of Utah
know the cause of the fight against
Roberts, and they viii resent it at the
polls.
Alfred PehrsOn-Let the Democrats
nominate a good, strong man and we
are sure to win.
Peter Greaves, Sr-If possible the
election should be deferred until Mo-
vember to save the expense of a special
election In case the special election is
soon called, if the Democratic party
puts up a good, strong candidate he
ought to win.
F. Y. Jensen-The election should be
put off until November. Let the Dem
ocrats nominate r. W. Young and he
will sweep the state
Ephraim Hansen-The special cleo
ton should be put off until November.
One of the strong men of the party
should be nominated to insure sue
cess.
Heber Nielson-Put the election of
until the general election. Name one
of the best men in the party and We
will win.
Rasmus Hansen-If the Democrats
put up a good, able man. who has 9
good moral character, I believe we Will
win. Much depends upon the candi-
date
Henry Beal-I believe the people OF
Utah viii rebuke the Salt Lake Trfb-
une and the Republicans of this state
for the fight they have made against
Roberts. The Democrats should nom
mate an able man of good character
and the people viii elect him.
Peter Greaves, Jr.-I think the special
election should be called in November.
If the Democrats nominate a good man
who is qualified for the position, I be-
Heve they will carry the state,
Edwin DOriUs-I believe the Demo-
cratic convention Should be called as
soon as possible, and a good, clean.
Democrat should be nominated. II the
candidate is such a man he viii be
elected by good majority.
NJ. F. Murray-The governor should
call the special election for the day the
general election win be held. When an
election is held / believe the people Of
Utah will show thir disapprovaI of the
storm starters by electing the Demo-
cratic nominee by an overwhelming
majority

the positions in the military service;
they had accepted the latter positions,
and thus ipse facto they had vacated
their state Offices.
Duty of United States.
True the state legislature had pro-
nOunced to the contrary, but he con-
tended that it was the duty of the
United States to go behind the action
of the state body. He urged that there
was no way by which they could again
take their seats except by reelection.
which was not .resorted to in either of
these instances.
The agreement by which the two
houses of the legislature arranged to
meet in Joint session for the election
Of a senator and disregard the contests
over seats. allowing neither contestant
nor contestee to vote, Mr.. Holt declared
was corrupt, a violation of law con-
trary TO public pOlicy-a pitiable med
ding with a high function. It amounted
70 disfranchisement of two Democratic
members who -vere afterwards seated,
one in the senate and the other in the
house. The vote of the joint assembly
was reduced from Dinety-seven to nine
ty-five, making fOrty-eight q majority.
The agreement was among members Of
a. y
law and to public policy as WELL
Mr.. Holt devoted much of his time
TO consideration Of the right of the
senate of the United States to investi-
gate the qualifications Of the members
of a state senate, holding that as a
matter of self preservation. the federal
senate was bound TO go behind the de
CisiOns Of a state body. The qual1fica-
lions Of it's own members We're involved
and the federal senate could not afford
to say that it would be bound by the
conclusions of a state legislature, how
ever foolish they might be.
Ask For Further Evidence.
Mr. Frank L. WeHes. also of the
counsel for the prOtestants presented
the reasons why the committee should
take further evidence in the case. He
called attention to the anomalous fact
that while it was claimed that Scott
had been elected by forty-eight votes,
a majority, the prOtestants numbered
fOrtynine members Of the legislature.
He contended that the contests for
seats in the West Virginia legislature
were the result Of conspiracy on the
part Of the Republican managers to
ensure the election of Scott and that
in some cases the contes- were insisted
upon even where the contestants did
not want to enter into them. Blood
shed was even threatened by Repub-
liCan state officers
Mr.. Welles urged the committee in
view OF these contentious to take tes-
simony and allow the protestants to
prove these facts. He said conditions
