|NGRATITUDE:
the "LoWest Down, ,Meanest and Stink
 ingest Thing in Human Heart.''

PINE BLUFF. ARK, Jan. 5, 1900. To the Editor of the Graphic.
 was more than pleased with a short editorial in your paper ot Thursday in regard to our relations with England in her present troub- les. Of course it is natural that our sympathy should go out for the under dog, but ] have always claim. ed that ingratitude was one of the lowest down, meanest, stinkingest thing in the human heart. When eyer man does hls fellow-man a kind act, and especially without be- ing asked to do so, be is certainly entitled to the good wishes of that man. So with us in regard to Eng. land. I don't care what 5our past relations with England may have been, she certainly showed us the white hand in our late war with Spain. No one doubts the fact that If England had not shown her friend ship for the United States in the early part of the war that we would have had plicatlons with other European nations and no telling where the trouble would have ended. 1 am surprised that any true Amer icaa. would curse and damn England after showing her friendship for us in more than one way ln our trouo- les with Spain. Very truly,
 J. Y. SAUNDERS.

THE ROBERTS CASE
 ------ MORE THAN THREE WOMEN IN THE CASE-A SPICY
 SPEECH. MRS. J. ELLEN FOSTER Addresses the Committee in Be- half of Her Sex Mormonism
 Discussed.
MRS. J. ELLEN FOSTER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The Rob- erts Investigating committee re- srmed it's sessions today for the purpose of hearing arguments and bringing the inquiry to an early conclusion. MT. Roberts offered a telegram from the proprietors of the Salt Lake Herald concerning the testimony of Mr. McDaniels. MT. Taylor excluded the telegram, however, saying there was no color of right or propriety in receiving telegram as testimony in view of MT. Roberts refusal to admit the statements of absent Utah witness es.
 Mir. Schroeder, head of the Gen. tile delegation here to oppose Rob. erts, then opened the argument against Roberts.
 The afternoon session was enliv- ened when Senator Rawlins, of Utah, was drawn into discussion of polygamy. Mr. Schroeder had continued his argument when MT. Rawlins interrupted to correct detail as to certain statements given before a congressional com mittee relative to poligamy. Chairman Taylor thereupon asked Mr. Raylins, who was once a dele gate from Utah, if it were not un- derstood at the time the state was admitted that polygamy was at an end.
 It was my understanding, said MT. Rawlins, "that the solemniza- tion of polyganous marriages was |interdicted by the Mormon church and that this would have salutary effect in terminating the practice. But it did not hold out to congress that family relations already estab- lished would be broken ap." 
 Mir. Taylor asked if it were ex- pected that the law against polyga- my would be violated. MT. Raw lns answered that there might be sporadic cases, but as a general system polygamous relations would gradually terminate.
 MT. Schroeder concluded his ar- gument, which related mainly to the historical aspect of polygamy and the law in the case.
 Mrs. J. Ellen Foster addressed the committee in behalf of the great number Of women interested in the case and who were not represented before the committee. She spoke vigorously, dealing with the Rob- erts case and the general moral in- terests it involved. This conclud. ed the day's proceedings and the committee. adjourned until 10:30 tomorrow.
