It was decided (Mr. Hoar replied) when there were very few Senators present and in the ab- sence of members of the committee on forei ions, I think that the decision should reversed at once, 1 had supposed until the other day (said Mr. Dawes) that there never was a question but that such petitions should be presented in ex- ecutive session, That vote the other di seemed to be a departure from the custom. have no choice about it myself, should like a full Senate (said Mr. Cockrell) { When the point is discussed. I think that the Senate did right exactly the other day. The point of order was withdrawn by Mr. Hoar for the time being. . THE MONTANA REPORTS. Mr. Hoar, from the committee on privileges and elections, reported four resolutions in the jease of the persons ciaiming seats as {Senators from the state of Montana--two jof them declaring that Clarke and | Maginnis—were {the other tw Power were not entitled to seats and declaring that Saunders and titled,” on the merits of the to be admitted “to seats.” Resolutions the minority of the committee, making Gray, and all were ordered to be printed--Mr. Hour giving notice that he would ask the Seu- ate to consider them on Thursday next.

The majority report gives atthe ontset the circumstances surrounding the election of Messrs. Saunders and Powers jby the Iron Hall or republican | legislature, composed of half the mem- bers of the senate and the republican representatives claiming to be elected, and of Mesers, Maginnis ahd Clark by the court house legislature, composed of half of the senate and democratic representatives claim- ing to be elected, None of the senators had their election called in question, but there were two sets of five representatives from Silver Bow county claimin, be elected. One of these sets elected, with twenty-five other republicans and eight senators, voted for Saunders and Powers, The other set, with Soak se other democrats and eight senators, ¥ for Ma- ginnis and Clark. WHICH SET WAS ELECTED? The case, therefore, turned upon the ques- | tion which of these two sete of five persons was entitled to sit in the House of Representa- tives from Silver Bow county. It is not claimed that there was any adjudication of the House | Saceieetnoteeee agi mittee have Boon led to consider three others, PP aan ges ace a case. 1, Which of the two sets or groups of members claiming to sit for the yr ae from or | ver Bow had credentials the board entitled to canvass the vote and art pea f five had the lawful one ip of five cre- elected, which was legally to sit in the Lecunrebneiae _ and remain take part sul unt the House itself had ‘aajudicated thete : H.

As to the first question, “which had the lawful cre- tentials?” = THE COMMITTEE SHOW that A. F. Bray, P. R. Dolman, F. H. Hoffman. sheir right to sit as members from Silver Bow county; they took part in the organiz: sentatives and remained members of that body until after Messrs. Saunders and Powers were alected Senators. Thomas F. Courtney, A. H. Day, A. M. Dersseault, Job W. Gilligan and Joseph Hogan held certificates of election from the clerk of Silver Bow county, took part in the organization of the court house (or demo- cratic), house of representatives, and remained members until after the election of Messrs. Maginnis and Clark. CONCLUSIONS OF THE COMMITTEE. After reviewing antecedent legislation upon the subject ot the election, including the ex- abling act of Congress, the ordinances passed by the constitutional convention and the pro. visions of the old territorial laws, the majority conclude that the territorial law providing that the county clerk shall issue certificates of election to representatives in the legislature was superseded by the ordinance of the constitu- tional convention, which imposed that duty upon the state board of canvas-ers, aud hold that “Bray and his four associates, who went to the Iron Hall with the certificates of the stute board that they were duly elected fro: Silver Bow. had the lawful credentials,” UPON THE QUESITON OF QUOKUM which has been raised in conucetion with the case, the committee here says: “It -vill appear that it is uuneecssary to decide this question for the purposes of ihe present case. We be- lieve, for roasons hereafter stated, that the certificates of the state board declared the trae will and choice of the people, as exprossed by a majority of the votes actually and law- fnlly cust. But, asthe matter bas been dis cussed, it 1s proper to say that we are unable to see any distinction in principle between the case of a percon Claiming title toa scat im an ssembly whose character a some other body whose character is undisputed, * * * But we think the credential: of the five re lean membors trom Silver Bow are fusiy sup pe d by the facts of the election, as they are isclosed to us by the admissions of both sides and by the undisputed and uncontrolled evi dence taken in judicial proceedings in Montana and laid before us by ginuis.” THE ELECTION IN SILVER BOW COUNTY. The whole inquiry turns upon the honesty sud fairness of the clection at precinct $4, Silver Bow county. The proceedings in rela- tion to the canvassing of the returns precinct (a camp on the line of the Butte aud Gallatin railroad in process of construction) are sct forth inf detail from which the majority conclude that the state board of canvassers did disputed by embly and in an 4s their duty as required by law. But they also | think that the election held at precinct 34 wax, in fact, irregular. illegal aud fraululent, and j that this appears from the records and from the und inptted. facts furnished by Messrs. Maginuis and Clark, THE ALLEGED FRAUDULENT ELECTION. The whole history shows. the majority say, that the proceeding at precinct 34 had no relation whatever to the real will of duly qualified voters, but was fictitious, pretended and without validity, either in form or sub- stance. The copy of the poll list before the com- mittee shows that the 174 voters of precinct 34 voted in alphubetical order. This seems to the majority conclusive evidence that the whole proceeding was manufactured. “We have the ma jority say, ‘the extremely suspicious and unusual circumstance that while there were twenty-tive different officers voted for and alsoa vote for or against the con- stitution every oue of the 1i4 voted for every one of the officers and for oragainst the constitution. We have the further remurkable and suspicious circumstance that while the proposed consti- tution was supported by bot parties in Mon- tana the vote aguinst the constitution was the same within one as the republican vote on the officers, when the vote was on party lines. IT IS ALSO SINGULAR und tous incredible that while there were in the county of Silver Bow about 7,000 votes so evenly divided between the two political parties that in the candidates a change of less than eighty votes whould have changed the ma- jority from one side to the other, the voters of this new community at precinct 34, who must have assembied from various parts of the county, whose names as they appear upon the poll list indicate their descent from various nationalities, should have been divided in any fair election between the two political parties in the proportion of 171 to 3.” VOTING ALIENS. The majority further say that the canvass of the votes of the precinct was not public within the meaning of the law: that 48 unuaturalized aliens yoted at precinct 34 and 126such persons voted at precinct 26, or more than cnongh to have changed the result in all the disputed cases, even if ali the republican votes cast at both precincts were cast Sy those unnaturalized aliens. SUGGESTIONS SET ASIDE. In conclusion the majority discuss two prop- ositions or suggestions that were made. One is that the governor having failed to recognize the legislature, it had no legal existence, and, therefore, could not elect Senators. | This the majority dismiss as ingenious but with- out foundation and opposed to the plain constitutional rights and daties of the legislature, The other is that the committee should refer the case back to the people of Montana in order to teach them anecded lesson, The majority say that they do not deem it to be in their power to deprive any state of its rightful repre- sentation in the Senate or to bar right- fuily elected Senators in order to tcach lessons to any person or to indicate their displeasure at certain modes of procedure. As to the effect of this course, if it should be pur- sued, the majority say, it would, in their opin- ion, be diametrically opposite to that sought by really offering a premium on lawlessness. THE MINORITY REPORT. Mr. Gray presented the report of the minor- ity, which, like that of the majority, was a very long document. _ It sets forth a dtate of things different from that given in the majority re- ort and concludes from it that the democratic Beoators are entitled to their seats.
