INVESTIGATING ROBERTS.

House COMMITTEES stnI at Work ON the
Utah Polygsmist.
Washington, Jan. 5.-The Roberts in
yestigation committee continued In
session to-day. Chairman Tayler stated
that he had received from ex-Sscretary
Carlisle letter giving his views on the
case. The record OF Roberts application
and admission to citizenship does not
comply with the law as l understand II
and do not think he will be allowed to
vote In any state upon certihcatei based
upon that record.
"He Is at this very moment poly gam
ist, not having at any time abandoned or
renounced the relation assumed by plural
marriages, and eohabitation with al
legged wives Ia not at all necessary. The
q Question, therefore, Is whether the COM
mittee will decide on the question OF
tinal right that an und0ubted polygamist
who justi6es the doctrine and practices
polygamy shall be allowed to hold q seat
In the house"
II was determined by the committee to
ask Carlisle for his views more at
length on the general right OF congress
10 exclude a member.
Roberts then read q typewritten state
ment reviewing In detail the proceed
ings OF the case up TO date. He said
There Is no statute 30 far IA made u
appear before the committee, either il
Utah or the United States, applicable 70
the case which disqualihes a represen'
tatiye elect from the office OF congress
man In the lower house OF the American
congress"
Roberts dwelt with special emphasis
on the right Of constituency to deter
mine the moral character OF member
II Is left TO those constituents 10 deter
mine, he said. what shall be the moral
status OF the man they wish TO send tC
congress to be their representative anC
not to the house Of congress.

the memorial presented against Clark.
He said the complsinants expected TO
be able 10 prove all charges made and
show that Clark's election was obtained
by the liberal use Of money, and large
sums OF money furnished by Clark. He
believed that the expenditures could be
traced 10 Clark with due effort on the
part OF the committee. He said he and
his associates would ask 10 have a good
many witnesses summoned. kdmunds
also said that the comolainants expected
TO prove all the charges made and In do.
ing so would enter qnite thoroughly into
the Whiteside libel case, showing that
when Senator Clark had opportunity 10
appear In court he refused TO answer any
material questions.
While Edmunds Was making his state
ment q question arose concerning the
admissability Of testimony taken By the
grand Jury OF Lewis aud Clark counties
Senator McComas took occasion to in
innate that he would hesitate TO admit
statements purpOrting to violate the 80
crecy Of the grand jury room.
Edmunds said that the notes OF thu
grand jury proceedings had been made
BY Attorney General Nolin and bad been
presented and received by the Montana
court In the dlsbarment pr0ceeding g
against John b. Welcome.
Ex-senator Faulkner made q formal
statement on behalf of Clark. He 70
viewed the politics Of Montana, referring
TO the "Daly gang and the Clark fac.
ton" In the democratic party

that the opponents OF Clark hat
determined 10 prevent his political

persons. including thirty eight members
OF the legislature, that there had been NJ
proceedings against any man thus In
volved In anv Montana court. This
was .he evidence that the present pro
seeding was not sustained by public SEN
timent."
The statement was made that II neces
sary each charge against the senator
would be met by direct positive proc
OF it# falsity,"
After hearing these preliminary state
ments the committee held IN executive
