Hopkins and Dubois Have
Spirited Skirmish
NOBODY HURT IN W0ROY TILT
Beveridge Compares Smoot to
Dreyfus Whose Character
Was Blackened

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2O-The fina
debate on SmOot this afternoon was
heated. Dubois said Hopkins in a
previous speech had declared Mormon
ism was above all the Christian relig.
ions.
Hopkins leaped up. his eyes blazing
I'll not yield the floor" shouted Du-
bois. who has led the opposition -four
years. Hopkins shouted: Its abso-
lutte Misrepresentation"
Hopkins was declared out Of order
but notwithstanding Dubois protests
Hopkins added: 1.-The senator must
not misrepresent a colleague if he does
not want to be interrupted" Con-
tiuing, Dubois said a certain senator
lie because he had spoken of false tes-
timony and charged that Knox made
sarcastic filings at the sanctity of the
American home"
You have the Mormon vote but you
have lost the moral support of the
Christian women of the United
States
Reveridge xcQntrasted the Smoot
case with the Dreyfus case. He de-
clared there was no blacker wrong
than to ruin the reputation of men or
women. and insisted there is no public
policy that could justify such damna-
tion on errors.
Hansbrough Has Word.
Carmack announced he would at
the proper time offer an amendment
to the pending resolution calling for
Shoots expulsion Hansbrough held
that the Mormon church's action in
sending SmOOt to the senate was an
Offense against good morals, and char
acterized it as another example of
brazen affrontery in defying public
sentiment
Foraker held that no testimony ex-
lists that would justify the declaration
that Smoot's seat is vacant. He de-
clared that it would be a violation of
the office if he should disregard the
constitutional requirements of the
case. He declared SmoOt showed bet
ter character than senators generally
could expect to attain
Foraker's Talk.
Foraker said SmoOt neither cheWs,
smokes nor drinks, "the trouble seems
to be he's too good. The senators
generally joined in debates. Bailey held
that because SmOOt was high in his
connection with the Mormon church
was sufficient reason why his seat
should be declared vacant
DOlliver said he could not without
violating his sense of duty vote against
SmOot.
