Cooper. in the dis. cussion over Cooper and his medicines which has ragged for the past year in cities visited by the young man on his euucatlve campaigns, as he calls them.
 Cooper was explaining his new the. ories and medicines to Boston people during the Oregonian's visit to that city, and in recent interview Mir.

Fine Place, Where Room with Bath

Everything seems to be drifting to. ward hotels and theaters, says the New York Press. We wonder and never cease to wonder that capital. Ists continuously invest their money in such ventures, which pay or do not pay four per cent. It begins to look as If all of as will by and by live in hotels and sell our houses to those mot in the know" or to such as have money to burn" Our newest hotel has 800 rooms and 500 bathrooms. It's foundation is 60 feet deep, which means at least six stories under ground. Above ground there are 20 stories. A few years ago two stories. or about 2a feet, was the limit.
 I do not know who invented that humanity. It is a good one. It Illustrates very well the progress of the mechanic arts. In this newest hotel 100000 pounds of iron were used in the framework-or one floor alone more than 500 tons. More than 100000 enameled bricks were used to make the front walls look attractive. Some of the heaviest swells and ballooners in new and old society have taken rooms, the prices for small apartments ranging from s11,0o0 to s45,000 year.

TIE BATTLE BEGINS
MEMBERS OF BOTH PARTIES IF HOUSE LINED UP FOR
 GREAT STRUGGLE.
DEMOCRATS WOULD FORGE LEGISLATION
Minority Leader Denies That Affray Ii in Nature of Flibuster, But ls ar Effort to Compel Action On Imoort ant Matters By the Republican Majority.

Washington, Apr. 4.-Leaders of the two parties in the house of representa- tives agree that Thursdays engage ment on the floor was but a skirmish preliminary to an extended battle in which the Democratic minority ex poets to fight to q finish it's program of endeavoring to secure by coercion certain legislation demanded by them and in part recommended by the presi dent, and the Republican majority will abandon it's defensive attitude and car. ry the war across the border. For the struggle both forces will strip for ac tion and all such impediments as pri vate bills and minor legislation in gen eral will be cast aside and trampled under foot Five of the big appropria ton bills-District of Columbia, naval naval academy, sundry civil and gen eral deficiency-are to be disposed of and as the fighting order of the minor ity is to compel action on selected measures by blocking all action, neither minor bills nor debates of any length must be allowed to consume the time remaining. MT. Williams, the leader of the minority, denies that the affray was in the nature of a filibuster. He declared Friday that the Demo crats were not filibustering, but "are intent upon serious and highly com mendable effort to force the Repub- ncans to do one of two things: Either .tos, x.hfCb ,F them are personally in favor of and which a Republican president has urged, or suffer themselves to be recorded openly and individually as opposed to them" The understanding from direct sources is that the Repub- licane are prepared to bear up against the warfare of the minority sor limited time without recourse to the deadly weapon of the majority--the rules committee; but that the Demo crats will not be permitted to imperil by delay the big appropriation bills. In other words. recourse will not be had until the sands of the session run low in the glass, to the expedient of bringing in from the committee on rules tie without intervention" rule, nor will the speaker the "dilatory motion" decision unless forced to do so.
 There was slim attendance of members when the house convened Friday due to the strenuous session of Thursday which ran far into the night. Both Messrs. Payne and VII Hams, the majority and the minority leaders, however. were on hand pre- pared for further parliamentary strug- gle which was soon again under way. It was prccipitated by motion by MT. Payne for the approval of the journal of Thursdays proceedings. On that motion, usually treated as formality, roll call was forced by Mir. Williams. The call served to bring out the full strength of both parties.
