THE NEWEST AIRSHIP.
Two French Inventors Propose to Use
the Suns Rays as Part of the Mo-
tive Power.

Two Frenchmen, NJ. Paul and NJ.
Lebaudy, have an airship which is be-
ing built near Nantes, France, and
the trials are soon TO be carried out
above the Seine. so as to avoid acct
dents. The balloon is 1872 feet long
and SO feet in largest diameter, con-
tanning $3.50 cubic yards. 1t is OF
peculiar shape, being Hat on the UNI
der side, so that it acts to some eX-
tent as an aeroplane. During the
trials the car will be provided with
Il guide rope 160 feet long, which will
be attached below to "a float in the
river, this to be heavy enough to pre-
vent the balloon from rising. AS the
ascensional force is often very sud
denly increased by the suns rays
falling on the balloon, it is designed
to prevent sudden rising due to this
cause. 1t has been found that when
the dispersion of cloud allows the
suns rays to strike the balloon this
may increase its temperature as
much as 40 degrees c. above the sur
rounding air. 1t is estimated that
float weighing half Il ton will be suf-
iicient to provide for this emergency.
The envelope of the balloon, which
weighs 0.6 pound per square yard, or
u total of 976 pounds, is formed of
layer of stout cotton cloth pasted on
each side of sheet of light rubber.
The outside is coated with yellow
protecting substance, recently dis
covered, and known as "ballonine."
1t is found that this increases the
tiShtness and also gives protection
from the suns rays. The fabric thus
constituted is very resistant, and II
piece yard wide will stand a test of
$500 pounds tension. Its impermea-
bility is unusual, as tests show
leakage of hydrogen of but eight
cubic inches per square yard in "a
hours, or practically nothing. Below
the balloon is suspended a frame 6S
feet long, made of steel plates and
tubes braced with piano wire. 1t car
ries "a IS horsepower gasoline motor.

The greatest by far among great
geographic features is the Pacific ba-
sin. If all the continents and islands
forming the face of the earth were
joined in one great continent. its eN-
tent would scarce equal that of the
great ocean, and if the mass of all the
lands of the globe above sea level were
poured into the Pacific barely more
than an eighth of the basin would be
filled, states the Geographical Maya
zine. Threefourths of our world sur
face is water; full third of this vast
eXpanse, or a quarter of the superfices
of the planet, is that of the great ocean,
while its abysses are of such depth
that full half of the water of the
earth is gathered into its basin. In
every point the Pacific is vast. so vast

doubtful if under any conditions in
system that conduces not at
all to temperance, but practically
means free rum, sufficient revenue
could be raised to pay the actual ex-
pense of the crime and poverty caused
by it, leaving out entirely the question
Of suffering and misery and the de
graduation which cannot be measured
by money.
But in Vermont even this poor sub
stitute for principle and character
would be entirely wanting. The
amount raised by any possible license
law wouldn't pay much if any more
than the expenses of its enforcement,
if it did that.
And therefore is it that the more
thoughtful citizens who perceive these
fatal weaknesses in high license, and
yet desire change from present con-
ditions, are led to favor the direct
state control system of the sale Of
liquors. They find by this system pri-
vate gain may be eliminated in their
sale, thus reducing that sale to min
imum they find that such a system also
guarantees the purity of the liquors !;
they find, also, that after all tempta-
ton to sale has been removed, there re-
mains a large natural demand for
liquors, which, under this system, it is
thought best with certain regulation to
supply legally, and that the profits of
this sale are large. These profits it is the
policy OF the State in this system to
retain, and distribute to all the people,
instead of giving them TO saloon keepers.
All statistics show that the amount of
these profits is very considerable,
amounting on an average from SO cents
to SI.5o per capita of the population.
This in Vermont would mean from
S2So,ooo to S. 900, which if applied
on taxation should reduce it on an
average from one quarter to one third.
AS these facts are understood, and
they are becoming SO rapidly by the
voters, it is easy to see why those who
desire change in our temperance leg
islation are rapidly turning from high
license to the system of state control.
Beyond any possible question high
license is doomed in Vermont. 1t is
dead issue and beyond the possibil-
ity of resurrection. For both the in
telligence and the conscience OF the
State are arrayed against it. But the
Register believes that both those who
favor prohibition, and those who do not,
can amicably and conscientiously unite
on a well considered and carefully pre-
pared state control law.
In this way will we arrive at a per
manent settlement of the question.
And the Register will reiterate It's be-
lief that as final result of all this agi-
tation Vermont will show her usual
capacity for leading, by enacting the
best law yet devised for the regulation
of the liquor traffic.
