OAKLAND, April 13 —Another phase of the old fight between the Building Trades Council and the Dis- trict Council of Carpentery developed to-day when the Mill-owners' Associ- | P received notice from the carpen- | that unless the four men who | were expelled from the Milimen's { Union for remaining at work during the recent strike were discharged from the mills where they are now employ- ed the milimen in those mills would be ordered out. The Mill-owners’ Association came back with the assertion that the min- ute any men were called out they would close down every mill in Ala- meda County Now the Building Trades Council is in the fight. J. B, Bowen, business agent of the council, said to-night: “The mills will be kept open, no matter what action the District Council of Carpenters sees fit to take, and the men will be protected. The threat of the carpenters to call out the men is an empty one, for not half the millmen would obey the call.” . — Marriage Licenses. ®AKLAND, April 13.—The follow- ing marriage licenses were issued by the County Clerk to-day: Charles E.

Howard Sends a Letter Announcing With- drawal From the Place| i P an Francisco Call 1118 Broadway, Avpril 13. City Councilman John L. Howard has placed his resignation in the hands of Mayor Olney and the City Council. Pressure of private business affairs and ill health are the reasons Mr. Howard assigns for his action in re- tiring from the city government. The recessity of going away for a tine also led Councilman Howard to re- sign, for. he declared 1o his callers, he believed his place should be filled in view of the public business now be- Oakland Office fore the Council. But it is hot certain that Mr. How- ard will be permitted to resign. The Mayor is anxious that the city shall not lose the services of the gentleman, and an effort will be made to retain him. As soon as Mayor Olney was notified of the resignation he decided to take steps toward inducing Mr. Howard to stay. The Mayor suggested that the Council should not accept the resignation, but should grant Mr. How- ard the leave of absence necessary to cover his projected three months’ trip abroad. “I feel that the city cannot afford to lose Mr. Howard,” said Mayor Olney to-night. “‘and 1 should feel disappoint- ed if it shall become necessary for me to appoint his successor. He is run down and must take a rest. He be- lieves there should be a representative in his place during his absence. I hope the Council will vote him a leave of absence to cover the time he shall be \ away.” Mr. Howard left to-day for Victoria. There he will join his wife and daughter for a tour of Europe, expect- ing to be away about three months. In the City, Council Mr. Howard has been conspicuous as the exponent of clean-cut business methods. He has made exhaustive studies in the water question and was foremost in arrang- ing the bond issue programme. As chairman of the auditing and finance committee, Councilman Howard's work was that of a master hand. He is president of the Western Fuel Com- rany and ome of the representative commercial men of the Pacific-Coast. —————————— REPUBLICAN ¥ACTIONS SUBMIT THEIR CASE Election Commission Listens to Tro bles of Fourth Congressional Dis- trict Politicians.

Asher presented the claims of his Congressional commit- tee and Louis Anderson performed a similar service for the Martin Kelly committee.

The former committee nom- inated Julius Kahn a candidate for Congress and appointed a Congres- sional committee. Kelly said there were sixty-one delegates at the con- vention, which he called to order. Asher said there were seventy-four delegates at his convention, they be- ing independent of the State conven- tion, and further that Kelly's dele- gates were part and parcel of his con- vention and had declared that they’ had not attended any previous con- vention. Kelly spoke at length and then Eddy held the floor for an hour. or more.

NIPF IT IN THE BUD. Pirst Appearance of Dandruff a Fore- runner of Future Baldness. That such is the case has beén conclu- sively proven by scientific research. Prof. Unna. the noted European skin specilal- ist, declares that dandruff is the bur- rowed-up cuticle of the scalp, caused by parasites destroying the vitality in the hair bulb. The hair becomes lifeless, and in time falls out. This can be prevented. Newbro’'s Herpicide kills this dandruff germ and restores the hair to its natural softness and abundancy. Herpicide is now used by thousands of people—all satisfied that it is the most wonderfal hair preparation on the mar- ket to-day. Sold by leading druggists.
