several thousand 'A'
dollars and the end Is not yet.
1t is all because of the law passed
by the last congress forbidding the sale
of alcoholic liquor about the capitol.
When the house OF representatives put
that amendment on the immigration
bill it was done for buncombe and no.
body was more surprised and shocked
when the senate forgot to strike 1t out
than the men who first proposed 1t.
OF course they were sorry to lose
the occasional opportunity for dram
at lunch, but there was one result of
their legislation which no one of them
seems to have thought of at all. That
was the circumstance that the entire
profits of the restaurant were derived
from the sale of liquor, just as is the
case in any first-class restaurant in
any town. Without the liquor privi-
lege the restaurant cannot help falling
behind. The most wizardlike finan-
cial genius on earth could not make
both ends meet.
So the question has come up to Un-
Gle Joe Cannon for decision. Shall the
restaurant man be held to his con-
tract and obliged to continue the res
taurant at a great financial loss to
himself? Shall the house take hold of
the business and run the eating es-
tablishment direct, paying all bills and
taking all risks, or shall the restaurant
be abolished altogether?
To abolish the restaurant Is out of
the question. Even temperance rep
resentatives must have something to
eat in the middle of the day. to say
nothing of the hundreds OF visitors
who crowd the capitol To run the
business is rather undignifled for a
great legislative body. 1t is out of the
question to make the unfortunate res
taurant man suffer for the acts OF
the other party to the contract 1t is
problem that Speaker Cannon has
got to solve in a very short time and
similar problem will come up at the
other end of the capitol for solution
before the close of the session.

;gress first began, but 1t may be doubted
/, whether Spooner, in his own Geld, has
ever been surpassed.
He is little fellow, hardly more
than five feet FIVE, and that seems to
add to his effectiveness, for he Is a
bundle of nerves and brains.
He made speech the other day In
defense of the Panama policy of the
administration which Platt, of Connec-
ficut, declared to be the greatest speech
he had ever listened to. And Platt has
been in the senate 20 years, is over 70
travagance OF statement.
Spooner's speeches are always sur
prises. He never knows five minutes
before he speaks whether he is going
ito say anything or not. OF course he
is always prepared when great ques-
tion is before the senate and his great
ability as a lawyer enables him to put
dimself in condition for emergencies.
But he never wrote out a speech in his
life and probably would not know how
to do it. He stores himself with fact
and argument and then depends on
the inspiration of the moment to give
him the impetus. Once on his feet
there Is no stopping him. He Is like
a whirlwind and carries everything be-
fore him. He is profound, pungent
brilliant, witty, quick as flash and

The Lotb!es Are Deserted the big hotels.
But this year it is altogether different.
One reason for this is doubtless the
general understanding that the pres
ent congress is not going to make
heavy appropriations. There is little
here now to encourage the presence of
a lobby. Schemes involving the eN-
penditure of money by the government
have been placed in cold storage to
await the coming OF better day.
There is no tariff to receive attention
from the friends of various industries.
In short the lobby is out of job this
winter and the hotels suffer in con-
sequence.
This is going to be famed among
congresses for its economy unless all
signs are at rault. The legislative ap-
preparation bill was brought in from
the appropriations committee without
single item of increase over year ago,
in spite of the recommendations of the
departments for greatly enlarged
forces. That Is something unprece
dented since the beginning of the gols
ernment. OF course the senate will put
some additional items on the bill. but
even then the result will be in strik
ing contrast with former years.
