Sinossi
Excerpt from Official Report of the Proceedings and Debates of the Convention Assembled at Salt Lake City on the Fourth Day of March, 1895, to Adopt a Constitution for the State of Utah
Mr. Van horne. Mr. Chairman and gentlemen' of the Convention, as the mover of the motion, it becomes my duty to speak to the question of whether it shall prevail or not. You have heard an argument against the motion. With you will rest the ques tion of whether it is right, whether it is just, Whether it is equitable, and whether it is legal, that that motion shall prevail.
To begin with, I will say that so far as I. The mover of the motion,' was actuated, I made that motion with a full adherence and a full recognition of the solemn oath I took on becoming a member of this Convention. I made the motion and I adhere to the motion with a full consciousness that I am sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United States; that I am, by im plication, sworn to do only such things as I think to be legal, to be right, to be equitable. No purpose other than the purpose that the people who have ex premed their preference for delegates to this Convention shall have that expres sion recorded in the form of the dele gates they sent here. No other motive than that the whole people of Utah shall be recognized in this Convention is in my mind in making that motion.
The gentleman says that only upon the permanent organization does this become a Convention; that we are dilly dallying with the question from day to flay in order to seat certain men.
Mr. Van horne. I understood the gentleman that way. I may have been mistaken.
