Members of the city council who
are favorable to street paving are
planning to present the subject at the
meeting tomorrow night and to force
action in spite of the opposition Of
Mayor Fee and Councilman Murphy.
! At the instance of the street commit
tee City Attorney Carter is now en-
gagged in drawing the resolutions that
will be passed by the council should it
decide to order the paving of the two
streets The district is such that the
expense to the city will be within the
$4,000 limit of Indebtedness.
Committee Takes Lead.
The campaign in favor of paving is
being waged by the street committee,
which consists of Councilmen Rem,
Mccormack and Ell. All of these
men have devoted much time and at
tention to the subject, and are now
anxious to have their plans realized.
Not long since all three made a trip
to Portland, and Mr.. Mccormack
came home via Tacoma and Walla
walla. thus devoting nearly weeks
time to the trip. This morning he
declared that those in the council OPP
posed to paving should have declared
themselves before the committee was
sent on its investigation tour.
At the outset of the move for paw
ing Main and Court streets it was
understood that all were favorable
provided the city could meet the ex-
pense. Now that this can be done,
the friends of paving insist that the
work should be done. From indica-
tions it is their intention to take the
bull by the horns and pass the project
over the mayors veto should Judge
Fee oppose the move. There are SIX
councilmen who are said to be favor
able to such action, and possibly i
seventh. The latter is Councilman
Hinkle, whose attitude was not known
to the committee, but who has stood
close to the mayor thus far.
Who Is Blocking Paving?
There is q sentiment among mem
bers of the council as well as outsid
ers, that the real source Of opposition
to street paving has not become
known. One member declared his be
| lltI tlllS tiidN SHV oPPNsiNiN'
to paving because the city must pa!
for the squares Is not sincere. In hi
opinion some ultra-conservatiye mel
of influence have quietly advised
against paving, though they have no
fought it openly. This view Is plaus
ible because at different times sine
the movement was started variou
reasons have been advanced why tn
work should not be undertaken now
The plea that the city should not pa
for the squares is the last objection
- advanced.
Whatever the real influence a
: work may be there is prospect OF a
5 interesting time tomorrow night TO
u the friends of paving say the subjec
will be brought up and that there wi
be a "show down."

OPEN PUBLICITY THE BEST

When the maker OF a medicine, sold

his patients fully into his confidence by
frankly and fearlessly publishing broad
a full list of all its ingredients In plain
English, this action on his part Is the
best possible evidence that he Is not

and that 1t will bear the fullest scrutiny
and the most thorough investigation.

gans distinctly feminine. Is the only medi-
cine put up for sale through druggists for
woman's special use, the maker OF which
is not afraid to take his patients into
his full confidence by such open and
honest publicity:
A glance at the published ingredients
on each bottle wrapper, will show that 1t
Is made wholly from native, American,
medicinal roots, that IL contains no poi
sonous or habit-forming drugs, no mar.
cotics and no alcohol-pure, triple-refined
glycerine, OF proper strength being used
Instead OF the commonly employed alco'
hol, both for extracting and preserving
the active medicinal properties found IN
the roots of the American forest plants
employed. 1t is the only medicine for
gists, that does not contain a large per-
centage OF alcohol, which is in the long
run so harmful TO woman's delicate, nery-
Gus system. Now, glycerine Is perfectly
harmless, and serves a valuable purpose
by possessing intrinsic value. all its own,
and besides II enhances the curative
effect OF the other ingredients entering

teachers endorse these views and praise

The ladies' who have used Newbro's
Herpicide speak OF II in the highest
terms, for its quick effect in cleansing
the scalp Of dandruff and also for its ex-
cellence as a general hair-dressing. 1t

dandruff, as It destroys the germ that
causes It. The same germ causes hair to

FALLS 127 FEET;
ESCAPES INJURY
ROCKFORD GIRL DROPS FROM
HIGH CLIFF
Friends Expect to Find LifeIess Body,
but Beyond Few Bruises
Young Woman Is
Unharned

Special to The Herald.
ROCKFORD. ILL.,, June 18.-Miss Edia
Brown. daughter of former Mayor e.
w. Brown, today fell from the top of
a bluff overlooking the Rock river to
the rocks below, distance of 127 feet,
and escaped serious injury.
Miss Brown, who was a student at
the Leland Stanford university when
that institution suffered the big earth
quake, has been entertaining western
friends since her return from the west.
Today, with party of friends, she at
tended a picnic on the summit of the
hill, High Bluff.
While arranging luncheon she ap-
preached too close to the edge and
the rock crumbled and precipitated her
to the rocks below. A small tree jut-
ting out half the distance down caught
her clothing and broke the fall some-
what.
Still further down small shrub
caught one of her slippers and tore 1t
from her foot, thus again breaking the
force of her fall. AS it was she is
badly bruised and scratched, but no
bones are broken, and beyond the scars
and shock she is all right tonight.
