New Invention Will Hold
Object Motionless in Space
PARIS, Sept. 15.—A1l Italian en
gineer, Louis Rata, has solved the
problem of holding an object motion
less in space, according to the Mar
seilles correspondent of "Petit Pari
sian." Rota is credited with having
constructed an apparatus which, by
the action of electric current, can be
elevated to a lieighth of trom 2,000
to 3,000 feet and kept motionless,
or propelled in any direction at a
speed of more than 100 miles an
hour.
Rota's apparatus is spindle-shaped,
12 feet long and two feet in diameter
and can carry a weight of 90 pounds.
It is saiil to remain motionless in a
wind of considerable velocity, but it
the wind becomes very strong it
rises automatically until it reaches a
calmer region of the air. Ihe inven
tion is based upon reactions obtained
from the electro-magnetic forces of
the atmosphere.

but were hadicapped by the lack of
proper equipment.

LAHI'S OPPONENTS
ACCUSED OF HIESS
I
Friands of Indiana County Judi
cial Candidate Make State
i
ment In His Defense
NOT WITH RUM LEAGUE
The special correspondent of the
Philadelphia North American,
sizes up the situation in Indiana
county as follows:
INDIANA, Pa., Sept. 11.
Friends of Congressman Jonathan
M. Langham, who is opposing Judge
S. J. Telford in the judgeship con
test in Indiana county, allege unfair
tactics on the part of Langham's op
ponents in the following statement:
'•The friends of Congressman
Langham very strenuously object to
the tactics of the opposition, who are !
attempting to make it appear that h<-1
is backed by the liquor interests, j
This is not true, in fact, and is only i
intended to mislead the voters. Mr. I
Langham has served notice on all the !
liquor interests that he did not de- -
sire their support, and would not re
ceive any assistance from them. He
is making his own compaign on his j
merits as a candidate. "
"On the temperence question, his
record has always been satisfactory
to those interested in the cause. He
stumped the colinty for the prohibit- j
ion amendment when that issue was
before our people several years ago.
He was outspoken in favor of local
option at the last session of the legis
lature, and the member from Indiana
county voted in favor of that meas
ure. During his three terms in con
gress he consistently voted for all
temperance legislature introduced in
the national law-making body. He
voted for the Hobson amendment
and all other measures of a temper
ance character. His record on the
temperance question is especially
good, and the people are familiar
with it.
"Judge Telford has granted licen
ses every year since he went on the
bench, and at the last license court
wrote an opinion, expressing his
views of the law when he granted a
license to Grant Snider, at Glen
Campbell. He held it to be his duty
to grant that license, and, of course,
it necessarily follows that other licen
ses must be granted when the condi
tions are the same and the applicant
had complied with the law. Under
the views expressed in that opinion,
it would be necessary for Judge Tel
ford to grant as many licenses in the
future as in the past, if he abides by
the law as he himself has laid it
down. The friends of Langham in
sist that the temperance poople will
gain nothing by the election of Tel
ford, and that they will fare as well,
if not better, in Langham's hands as
they did during the Telford adminis
tration. On the temperance question
it is a toss-up between them.
"The report that the members of
the bar are largely for Telford is not
true. The fact is, that the bar is
about equally divided between the
two leading candidates. Many of
the most influential members are
supporting Langham, and a majority
have pledged him their support.
