THOMAS A. EDISON might walk
into a great electric power plant and
see at glance a number of ineffi-
ciencies that were being tolerated
and say nothing about it, but he
would know the weak points at a
glance. An efficiency engineer might
walk through any factory and see a
number of improvements that might
be made to lower costs. and he might
say nothing about it. But II Mr..
Edison and the efficiency engineer
were stockholders, it's a sure thing
that they would bring their observa-
lions before the next stockholders
meeting. | am stakeholder in Nye
county. and as such | am interested,
because my taxes and my living

honest and conscientious worker
and at the same time be inefficient
Records and bookkeeping do moi
make efficient an officer. Anybody
can fill in forms, and keep check
stubs of the money paid out, and can
tell what it costs, but they cannot
tell you how much more 1t costs than
it should cost.
AT the present time, there are five
men on salary in the sheriff's office
Mr.. Miles, Mr. Walker, Mr.. Williams
Mr. Briggs and Mr.. Slavin; probably
every one conscientious worker;
several of them are good bookkeepers
and systematizers. At IS day. OF

The city council, which with the
Commercial association, is sponsor
for the Fourth Of July celebration
preparing, last night took official ac-
ton to make the celebration more Of
a success.
The council went on record as re-
questing that the business houses
close between the hours Of 10 and
1890 in the morning and between the
hours Of and in the afternoon.
Also the street committee was given
instructions to prohibit the parking OF
cars on the day Of celebration on Main
street from Railroad to the bridge
and on Court street from Garden to
Vincent
This latter action was taken in or
der that parked cars will not inter
fere with people seeing the parade
However. It is anticipated that there
win not be many cars 70 park at that

Council Takes Action Toward
Making Celebration on 4th
of July More of a Success

time as every effort Is being made to
get the cars in the parade.
The recommendation for the sus-
pension Of business comes from the
desire Of the council that all Of the
clerks may take part in the festivities
and that business be forgotten in a
patriotic demonstration. r. Alexan'
der, who was present made a mild
objection to closing in the morning
on the grounds that the stores serve
az places Of rest for country people
He was told that the action Of the
council was merely suggestive and
that the actual time Of closing would
be left to the business men.
Councilman Folsom pleaded for all
day closing. He declared that many
members Of the band work in stores
and will not ask to get off while the
stores are open.
The council has been asked to
march in a body in the parade and
will probably do 50.
