Mask Protection for Engineer in Tunnel

Railroader Tolls How Ho Camo to Adopt It—Overcome by Gao In Mountain Cut C. R. D. Jones, an engineer employed by the Southern Pacific Railroad, exhibited an interesting invention when he appeared before the board of arbitration in oeoslon In Chicago. Jones was called by the locomotive engfe seers, enginemen and firemen seeking higher wages and better working conditions on ninety-eight Western railroads. The invention which he showed the board was a funnel shaped contrivance of tin from which extended a long rubber tube. He explained it was his mask or respirator, which he used aa a protection against gas fumes when going through the tunnels of the Southern Pacific over the pass in the Siskiyou Mountains, between San Francisco, Cal. and Portland, Ore. The respirator, Jones said, received compressed air from the engine through a sponge. Cracked ice cools the air. Jones said he earned a little more than $5 a day. He told a story of one of his experiences during which he nearly lost his life. "I remember it was on a Friday,” said he, ‘‘and there were thirteen cars behind my engine, which was in the middle of the train. There were five oil burning engines hauling and pushing the train. “While passing through tunnel IS, which Is 8,120 feet long, our train had to stop because the track was blocked at the other end. I was on one of the middle engines and knew we could dot stand the deadly atmosphere very long. So I got down to cut the train in two and back out. “Almost as soon as I got to the ground I staggered and everything grew black. I fell, then lost consciousness. The other men had to make three trips before they were able to find me. I was taken to Ashland, Ore., and placed In the care of the company's physician.” Jones added that during his illness he was not paid anything by the railroad.

PUT NICKEL IN SLOT, GET PAPER RAINCOAT

No More Being Late to Supper or Tardy to Work Because of Sudden Downpour from the Skies. Have you ever arrived In your old home town in a pelting rainstorm, all dolled up In your Sunday best, and been compelled to pass up a quarter to the local bus man or linger around the depot until some good Samaritan with an umbrella is kind enough to escort you to the abode of your family or friends T Have you ever noticed a flock of pretty but scolding maidens In a downtown doorway or the postoffice entrance, or the vestibule of a movie picture place wildly calling for umbrellas, raincoats, newspapers, brothers or best beau’s silk handkerchief, or anything to prevent that lovely seven or ten-dollar hat from being ruined by ths sudden shower? If you are a masculine reader, have you ever been compelled to “cough up” from three to six dollars In order to get your fair Dulcinea home from play or dance when It Is raining pitchforks and black cats and thb rubberMoated man on the box has suddenly jecome so stiff and lofty—in his price, at least—that occasionally one doubts if he can be touched even with a 10spot bill or a 10-foot pole? If you have ever passed through any of the above enumerated experiences —and what man or woman has not—forget It; deliverance Is at hand. The hour of the hastily Impressed newspaper, the borrowed umbrella or the painfully extracted cash loan from the hotel clerk or elevator boy is to bob up serenely no njore, for the paper raincoat has taken its place alongside the egg sandwich, chewing urn and insurance policies placed before the public In venting machines. The man or woman who drops a nickel for a package of gum to aid in the digestion of his nlckel-ln-the-slot meal and then pays a quarter to another machine for a policy Insuring him or her against the consequences may soon get a raincoat from an adjacent machine as a result of the ingenuity of a woman, who has obtained a patent on a paper raincoat, said to be waterproof. She plans to manufacture the coats in large quantise and distribute them in specially devised vending devices. It is to be persumed that the feminine raincoat will be provided with a cute little hood, or capote, as they say in French, and poslbly the masculine garment will be quite esquimau and save the wearer’s two dollar derby from gaining un Inch or two in circumference. All hail, hoch, also hear-hear to the paper raincoati Bah to the never present, disappearing, eye-de-stroying, pestiferous umbrella.

CARRIES A BIG GUN ON FLIGHT

Now Army Aeroplane Io Able to Lift 3,300 Pounds A new military biplane which can lift 8,300 pounds and remain In the air twenty-five hours has been given successful trials in Italy. The machine has three motors which develop an aggregate of 300 horsepower and It Is udd the craft can attain a speed of 71 mile* an hour. It carries a big rapid fire gun. On Its height trial the machine went up 6,500 feet.

RATIONAL ROAD BUILDING.

The Democrat has discovered that great minds will differ. The editor of that paper wants th have the taxpayers of Jasper county spend something like $350,000 to $400,000 to construct a brick highway from Remington to the north end of the county and The Republican Suggested that in view of the fact that the rapidly developing motor business was going to necessitate a radical change in our road building laws it would be prudent to await until these new laws are enacted before providing a tax burden that would be double tfyat of the court house. The Democrat, self-praised for so many years as the tax-payers’ friend, plumes itself with much pride because some newspapers and individuals gave favorable comment to the suggestion, which involved not a single idea of newness but simply a proposition to build an expensive road at general tax expense that would benefit directly less than half of the county’s population. Unquestioningly the time is coming when permanent roads must be built to take care of the rapidly developing motor business, but new laws will be needed and in many cases state aid will be provided to the construction of the main lines that will be paved, thus making it the veriest folly for any county independently to set out to construct a highway for the use of people from all over the country. The Republican is for permanent construction; regards many of the present repair methods as practically wasted, and expects to see the time when there will be from the south to the north and east to west roads of hard surface, but since road building is so much in the air and so speculative at this time, can see nothing but folly in considering the expenditure of almose a half million dollars in a road at this time.

If the next legislature of Indiana is republican and Warren McCray is the governor and the class of politicians that devotes its energies to the protection of the Taggart political machine is thrown out of powe¥ we expect that Indiana will be able to take the lead in passing a law for permanent roads, possibly offering encouragement to private enterprise in road building and providing for a toll system for automobiles. The Republican is in no sense opposed to the building of permanent highways, but on the other hand in the heartiest sympathy with any rational movement along that line, but when any one proposes a plan to involve Jasper county in debt to the extent of $350,000 to $400,000 for the building of a road for joy riders we feel like pointing a finger up the hill and suggesting a lunacy commission. Naturally any good magazine would speak with favor on any proposition that would build a road without regard to the folly of the expense, but we do not believe any “well-informed” people will favor it unless as H. R. Grow said to The Republican, they will favor it if it goes by their farm. The next legislature will have notihng so important confronting it as road-building laws. There should be sent to it men who will inform themselves thoroughly on this subject and who will make into law practical methods that will supplant the present wastes. There are now in perfect condition the old military roads about Rome, Italy. They have stood the travel of many decades, but with examples like this we are still going hit and miss, mostly miss, at our road building. Motor development has given us a reason for rational work that never existed before. Roads are no longer merely township and county affairs. They are more than state roads, they are national. It was scarcely once in a year that any person from another state drove over a county road prior to ten years ago. Now 50 per cent of the travel through Jasper county is by _ [Cars owned outside of Indiana. If a paved highway was built from the north to the south end it is probable that 75 per cent of the travel would be from outside of Jasper county. In all fairness should not 75 per cent of the cost of construction come from outside the county?

The Republican expects to see the United States army increased, believes it should be increased as a matter of proper defense. We do not believe that soldiers should be maintained in partial idleness, but that they could be employed at road building an average of 4 hours a day. Then prisoners at the prisons could be profitably employed at road making also and this should be done. Road building is a national problem and Jasper county would be very foolish to undertake to solve it ahead of legislation based upon thorough information.

Great minds certainly differ and fortunately they do, for some of the great minds that have planned the road laws up to this time and some of the great minds that want Jasper county to bankrupt itself and many of its taxpayers in experimental road building, need opposition of a very poritive kind. The Republican is not scoffing at The Democrat’s suggestion, it is merely taking a common-sense view of a great project, while The DemoIcrat shot off half baked at a time when the editor was a bit enthused after a spin in his Automobile.
