Holding Two Jobs

The matter OF officials holding two
positions OF different character and
receiving salaries Tor the same, is be
ing mentioned to some extent. This
practice is being followed both in
state and county official positions and
is most certainly all wrong. In some
instances salaries are being received
from each side that in either case is
sufficient for. one man even in case
he puts in full time. eight hours every
day at the work. Summed right down
If a man has time to hold two posi-
tions. the salary he receives is toe
much for the service rendered in each
individual case. as it is not known
that any ones time or ability is SC
valuable that he is entitled to any
more pay than he is receiving from
any one position, and in order to earn
the pay allowed he would OF neces-
sity have 10 put in full time each day
This is a wrong practice from all
sides of the question.

Not on the Job

Directly after election last fall
when it was learned that several
printers and newspaper men had been
elected to serve their suffering con-
sittuency in the halls OF legislation
in Nevada, the newspaper proprietors
throughout the state were elated, be-
licving that at least some legislation
in their behalf could be placed on the
statutes at last. after attempts cover
ing years. In this they have been
disappointed as they have gained
nothing. and lost much. Not one
measure that they favored as OF per
sonal benefit has been enacted, while
several directly against their interests
have passed.
The members Of the fraternity in
the legislature may be good workers
for other people, but they are abb
solutely nil when it ONE TO any
thing for their own benefit. Not
alone have they not shown any Great
enthusiasm in behalf OF measures that
would be beneficial to the craft. but
we are confronted with the spectacle
Of one Senator AT least. a newspaper
man, working directly against every
measure that favored his chosen pro-
f~ession. With these things as evi'
dence. how can il be supposed that
ncwspapermen will stand together
and do anything for their better
mcnt.? They work well for other,
but are not to the scratch when II
comes to themselves. The newspaper
men in this Legislature might be said
10 have held the balance OF power
and could have passed anything they
wanted They did not do it because
they did not take advantage oil their
strength. They have no one to blame

Echoes Louder Than Sound

From Harper's Weekly.
To most persons 1t would seem impossi-
BILE for an echo to be louder than the
sound that produced the echo, but under
certain rather peculiar conditions this
is really true.
When revolver is fired from balloon
the report is sharp. but not so loud as II
would be If the gun were fired on the
surface of the earth.
If the balloon is up something like 2O00
feet or higher, there will be a few sec
onds' silence after the revolver shot and
then a roar or deep rumble will rise UP
from the earth.
If an explosive Is lowered from the
basket of the balloon until il hangs a
few hundred feet below, and 1t is dis
charged with an electric spark from
battery In the hands of one of the aero
nauts, there will come to the ears of
those above report like a revolver shot
and then few seconds of silence fol-
loved by a peal of the loudest thunder
ever heard
There is no solid background about or
above the balloonists to produce a re-
bound of the atmospheric sound wave
and the air is more dense below. Thus,
when the second waves penetrate the
denser lower strata OF air and then the
solid earth. the echo produced seems to
the ears Of the occupants of the balloon
far louder than the original sound
