When applied intelligently

IN FAVOR OF WILCOX.
House Election Committee Takes Ac
tion Regarding Hawaiian Contest.

House Election Committee Takes Ac-
tion Regarding Hawaiian Contest.
Washington, Feb. 15.-Delegate Will
cox of Hawaii scored triumph in Sc
curing a unanimous vote of the house
committee on elections No. confirming
his right to a seat in the house of repre-
sentatives and holding that the charges
filed against him were not sufficient to
warrant his removal. Chairman Tayler
was authorized to make the report to
that effect. which will be submitted in
about week.
After the meeting Mr.. Tayler explain
ed the general considerations which had
influenced the decision Of the committee.
The case was not considered SO much
ia its technical aspects. but rather on
broad grounds, all the circumstances, con-
ditions and surroundings applicable to
Hawaii as one of our new insular pos
session being taken into consideration.
As a delegate from new territory it
was not felt that Wilcox should be met
with the same strict construction re-
uuircd in sustaining the right of repre-
sentative in congress to his seat as the
delegate has only limited powers and Is
little more than IN agent.
As to the charges of treason, the letters
placed III evidence We're written prloi
10 the organic act making Hawaii q
territory and there was no disposition
10 go into these prior issues.
| Whatever may have been the technical
| irregularity Of the election, there was the
saving fact that perfect machinery OF
election was established--a ballot box
was regularly provided, practically every
one participated in the voting, and the
will of the people was expressed.
.And on broad political grounds" said
| Mir Taylcr. 1--WE felt that the people Of
these inS,llar possessions should under
stand that they were not to he met by
mere technical objections which would
deprive them Of representation"
