CINCINNATI PE0-
PIE EXCITED
THE GREAT COOPER AS HE IS
CALLED HAS STIRRED UP
THAT CITY TO A RE-
MARK ABLE DEGREE.

Cincinnati, O. Feb 2S.-Ths city is at
present in the midst of an excitement
beyond anything that it experienced in
recent years.
Old and young, rich and poor, ell
seem to have become beside themselves
ever an individual who was stranger to
Cincinnati up to two weeks ago.
The man who has created all this tur-
MOL is l.. L. Cooper, president of the
Cooper Medicine Co. OF Dayton, Ohio,
who isat'present introducing his prepare
lions in this city for the first time.
Reports from eastern cities that pre-
coded the young man here were of the
most startling nature, many OF the
the leading dailes going so TAR as to
state that he had nightly cured 10 pub,
lie places deafness of years standing
with one OF his preparations. The ply
sicans of the East contradicted this
statement, claiming the thing to be
impossible, but the facts seemed to bear
out this statement that Cooper actually
did so.
In consequence people focked to
him by thousands and his preparation
sold like wildfre.
Many of these stories were regarded
as fictitious in Cincinnati and until
Cooper actually reached this city little
attention was paid to them. Hardly
had the young man arrived, however,
when he began giving demonstrations,
as he calls them, in public, and daily
met people afflicted with deafness and
with a single application of one of his
preparations actually made deaf people
hear again.
In addition to this work Cooper ad-
vanced the theory that stomach trouble
is the foundation of nine out of ten dis
eases and claimed to have a prepare
ton that would restore the stomach to
working order and thus get rid of such
troubles as rheumatism, and affections
of the kidneys and liver in about two
weeks time.
This statement seems to have been
borne out by the remarkable results
obtained through the use of his prep
araton, and now all Cincinnati is APP
parently mad over the young man.
His headquarters resemble veritable
stampede. Thousands of people are
visiting him each day, and the druggists
are selling medicines In enormous guam
titles.
What seems to make Cooper still more
popular is the fact that he practices
extensive charitable work and has al
ready dispensed a small fortune among
the poor of the city.
How long the tremendous interest
in Cooper will last is hard to estimate.
At present there seems to be no sign of
letup. Reputable physicians claim it
to be a fad that will die out as soon as
Cooper leaves.
In justice to him, however, it must be
said that he seems to have accomplished
great deal for the sick of this city with
his preparations.

Atty. Gen. Brecden Gives Opinion on
Constitutionality OF Law.

Attorney General Breeder sent last
night to j. w. n. Whitecottou OF Pro.
vo, an opinion on the constltutionality
courses of study al the Agricultural
college,. In this opinion the attor-
ney general says;
Your favor OF the 9Th inst, is be-
fore me, in which you seek, on behalf
of the board of trustees of
the Agricultural college my opin-
ion as to the constitutionalitv of
chapter 1874, Session Laws of 1905, IN
which the legislature attempts to pre-
scribe and limit the courses OF in
struction in the Agricultural college.
ana with this object in view YOU sub
nit the following Section 4, article
y of the constitution of the State OF
Utah, is az follows The location and
establishment by existing laws of the
University OF Utah, and the Agrlcul-
tural college are hereby confirmed, and
ali the rights. immuplties. franchises
and endoWments heretofore granetd
OF conferred, are hereby perpetuated
unto said university and agricultural
college respectively.
Section 1863 of the Compiled Laws
of Utah, 1883. which appears 10 hav4
been enforced and in effect when the
constitution was adopted, reads as fol-
lows:
The course of instruction shall en-
brace the English language and litera-
ture, mathematics, civil engineering.
etc.
The question over which the board
has stumbled is whether the right to
offer courses of Instruction in civil
engineering is a privilege and franchise
TO the college by the constitution, and
thereby placed beyond tho power OF
the Legislature to take It away
The above inquiry appears to have
been called forth by an opinion which
l rendered to Prof. Bexell on April
nth, in which ] advised him that
ohaper 1884, Session Laws of 1905 pro-
hibited engineering from being taught
in the college. In reply to your COM
Inunicaton | beg TO say, in my opiu-
ion the legislature was fully author
lied, under the constitution, to enact
the chaper under discussion and TO
limit and prescribe course of in
struction for the Agricultural college,
and TO eliminate and prohibit eugi-
neering from being offered aud taught
therein.
1T is plain TO my mind that the
Trainer of the state constitution never
intended that section of article Y OF
that instrument should forever per-
petuate certain curriculum or
course of instruction in the college and
TO prohibit the Legislature from inter-
fereing Herewith. If IL did so intend,
I'm my opinion, II fell far short of the
purpose | do not understand that Il
