‘The resolution undoi- which the
committee is proceeding directs it to
make a certain report not only upon
Roberta‘s prlma taste right. but on his
ouclal right. He seems to have object-
ed to the evidence unless it shows that
he was guilty of unlawful cohshitation
since March 4 last. when he cmmsto
have become a member of the House.
ll think the testimony shows prima
feels that be has been cohabiting. but
this is not material. in my opinion.
even though the committee had no jur~
' isdlction to inquire into conduct prior
to March 4, 1899. because he is un-
doubtedly a polygamist and has been a
polygamist ever since he married his
ilrst plural wife. Within the meaning of
that term as defined by the Supreme
sey case. He is at this very moment a
polygamist. not having at any time
abandoned or renounced the relation
assumed by the plural' marriages. as
cohabitation with the alleged wives is
not at all necessary The dilution.
therefore. is whether the committee
will d do on the question or final
right t at an undoubted polygamist
who justifies the doctrine and practices
of polygamy shall be allowed to hold a
seat in the House." .
it was determined by the committee
to salt Mr. Carlisls for his views at
length on the general right of Congress
to exclude a member.
Mr. Roberts then began his argu-
ment.
”As I stand face to face with the task
of presenting this case." he began. "i
could well wish to have some master
hand. some one trained in legal argu-
ment and persuasive ability. I am aw-
fully conscious that i do not have that
training or knowledge of the law. and
l have been compelled throughout to
get along as best i could with such
genersl information or the law and pre-
cedents as l pomed”
With this introduction. Mr. Roberts
took up a typewritten statement re~
viewing in detail the proceedings of
his case up to date. it said in part:
"The questions to be considered are
the prima (sole and final right of nob-
erts. representstivuloct from Utah. to
a seat in the House of Representatives
to which he was elected in the Month

him a plurality vote or 5.665. it is a
case in which there is no contest and
where it appears. so far as the pro-
ceedings before the committee is con-
cerned. that the representative-elect
possesses all of the qualifications pre-
scribed by the constitution of the Un—

tus to be made to appear before this
