NEW YORK DEMO
CRATS NOMINATE
ALFRED E. SMITH
Platform Denotmces Klan and De
clares for Beer and Wine
Governor is Pleased.
Syracuse. N. Y.. Sept. 26. Gover
nor Alfred E. Smith was renominated
today by the New York state demo
cratic convention. He will oppose
Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., the repub
lican candidate.
The nomination came after a dem
onstration of 15 minutes during
which the delegates paraded and
danced through the hall.
There was another demonstration
when the chairman announced that
the governor had received the entire
7S4 votes of the delegates.
A vigorous denunciation of the Ku
Klux Klan and demand for modifi
cation of the Volstead act to permit
sale of light wines and beers, were
the salient features of the platform
adopted.
In naming the Ku Klux Klan, ref
erence was made to the pledge of
to the fundamental principles upon
which our government was founded
and to the liberal principles of the
democratic party."
"Republican corruption" in Wash
ington was attacked, with particu
lar reference to the oil disclosures
and the Fordney-McCumber tariff
act.
The issue of the campaign, asserts
the platform, is "honesty in gov
ernment." "The republican leaders," it con
tinues, "want the electorate to forget
the astounding revelation of republi
can corruption. They want the
nation to forget that the reptiblican
candidate for the presidency presided
oer the sci.ate and sat with the
cabinet while the sick and wounded
veterans of the world war were
neglected and mistreated, and while
millions of public funds appropriated
for their benefit were stolen and
squandered.
"The republican leaders want the
people to forget that their national
candidate, though fully informed, re
maiu:!d silent while the nation's
priceless naval oil reserves set aside
for national defense, were secretly
and corruptly tourned over to the
favored capitalists for exploitation."
Asserting that "Mr. Coolidge was
not tig enough to pass an important
administration measure," the plat
form declares that "general chaos
was prevented only by constructive
democratic leadership."
The governor said he highly ap
preciated the honor conferred upon
him, although he had hoped he
would be able to take a vacation
from public life. He praised John
W. Davis, presidential nominee, as
the "ablest democrat in the United
States."

FARM UNION MAN
PLEADS FOR DEM
OCRATIC VICTORY
Declares Promise of Aid to Farmer
and Past Record Deserves Re
turn of Administration.
Lincoln, Sept. 25. A promise of
aid to the farmers if the democratic
party is returned to power and a re
minder of the benefits received by
agriculture during the Wilson and
other democratic administrations is
contained in a statement made here
Thursday by A. D. Fairbairn of
Washington, D. C, legislative rep
resentative for the Farmers' Union
of South Dakota.
"Not only will the platform and
program of the democratic party ap
peal to the farmers of the country
this year, but the record of what
was accomplished in agriculture's in
terest during the administration of
Woodrow Wilson will assure intelli
gent and sympathetic handling of
farm problems if that party is re
turned to power," he said.
"Farmers everywhere in the Unit
ed States are in revolt against the
republican administration. They have
at last realized that the democratic
party has given them virtually all
the beneficial legislation which has
been enacted in the past twenty
years.
"The democrats gave the country
the federal farm loan system and
the federal reserve boards, but the
trouble is that these agencies arc
now in the hands of enemies of ag
riculture." FINISH A NEW LEG
IN THE AIR FLIGHT
World Girdlers Arrive at San Fran
cisco Welcomed by Crowd
of 25.0C0 People.
San Francisco. Sept. 25. The
United States army flight around
the world, nearing its terminus, at
Seattle, brought the three planes and
their intrepid navigators to Crissy
field in San Francisco today. An ac
cident delayed but did not mar their
arrival.
Lieut. Leigh Wade was forced
down at South San Francisco with
a broken battery and had to wait
while a new battery was rushed to
him by motorcycle. Meanwhile the
other two pilots. Lieut. Lowell II.
Smith, the commander, and Lieut.
Eric II. Nelson, landed at Crissy
field but nineteen minutes alter they
expected to alight. Lieutenant Smith,
leading, swooped down on the field
at 3:199:25 p. m. Lieutenant Wade,
having installed his new battery,
reached Crissy field at 4:02 p. m.
The fliers had expected to hop
off tomorrow for Eugene, Oregon, en
route to Seattle, but announced
they would delay their departure
until Saturday.
San Francisco's welcome to the
circumnavigators of the air was no
less lusty than the greetings thut
have awaited them at every other
stop since their return to their own
country. More than 25.000 persons
ringed the landing field and shout
ed their admiration.
The hop from Santa Monica took
five hours and seven minutes, includ
ing the mishap to Wade. When they
arrived here the fliers had covered
approximately 27,00 miles of their
globe flight and had been between
250 and 355 hours in the air, ac
cording to a log kept by Lieut. Les
lie T. Arnold, mechanician to Lieut.
Smith.
In anticipation of a possible rush,
the field had been heavily policed
by both the military and city po
lice guards. Upon landing the
fliers looked tired and they were
much begrimed from the difficult
passage over the Tehachapi. The
planes after circling the f'eld once,
alighted gracefully and taxied up
before the reviewing stand.
The fliers later left their cock
pits and were received by Mayor
James Kolph. United States Senator
Samuel Shortridge and other not
ables. FLEW OVER LONDON

Count Zeppelin withstood the
broadsides of the young editorial

critic and eventually convinced him
that dirigibles did have a future.
During the war. Dr. Eckener was an

is a senior, having fought through
three seasons and made a splendid
name for himself as a fighter and a
leader, and his choice as the man to

pep up the basketball squad last
winter are hoping that he will be
able to put the same fire and en
thusiasm into the football games.
The Bronco team faces the stiffest
schedule a Hastings eleven has at-
, tempted for a great many years, with
two new colleges among the list of

(prospects at the other schools, the

EO WEIR YOUNGEST
FOOTBALL CAPTAIN
I
M
Nebraska Leader For 1924 Team is
Only 21 Years Old Played
When He Was 15.
Lincoln, Sept. 2 6. Edwin Weir,
who will lead the Nebraska Corn
huskers against the University of Il
linois in the first game of the season
at the Memorial stadium October 4,
is one of the youngest captains in
the history of University of Nebras
ka athletics.
Captain Ed is just twenty-one
years of age. His meteoric athletic
caree, however, has been one bril
liant succession of achievements in
high school and university.
When he was fifteen years of age.
Ed donned the moleskins for the first
time. He was a green farmer lad
Just entering Superior (Neb.) high
school when the call was sounded for
football candidates. Ed had watch
ed several games of football but had
never participated in the sport. As
he had both weight and speed, the
future Cornhusker captain was
among the first reporting for prac
tice. The coach took a look at Ed and
decided that he should try for a
backfield position. His ability to out
speed his competitors easily won him
a place on the squad and before the
season, the fifteen-year-old freshman
was a regular halfback on the Supe
rior high school eleven.
Weir played four years of football
at Superior high. All this time he
was kept in the backfield, calling
signals a share of the time from a
halfback position. His popularity
among his teammates won him the
captaincy his last two j-ears during
which time he was placed on the Ne
braska interscholastic football roll of
honor.
When he joined the university
squad Weir moved to a line position
and as a tacke his play was one of
the features of the '23 Nebraska
season. He is a bear at smearing
plays directed at his station and is
an active factor in the Nebraska of
fense. Weir was mentioned on sev
eral all-we-stern teams last season
and also ranked as an all-Missouri i
valley tackle, a noteworthy achieve-

ment for Lis first year of conference
athletics.
The Cornhusker football captain's
activities in high school and univer
sity have not been confined entirely
to football. He has had time for
track and while in his teens headed
the Superior high track squad.
In competition with the pick of
Nebraska high school athletes, he
won the 1922 Nebraska interschol
astic pentathlon or individual all
around championship. At the 1922
state high school meet he establish
ed a new state interscholastic record
,of 1C 1-5 seconds for the 120-yard
high hurdles. The record still stands.
In addition, he holds the interschol
astic pentathlon record for the high
hurdles, broad jump and high jump.
At the university. Weir is a mem
ber of Coach Henry F. Sehulte's Mis
souri Valley championship track
squad, placing in the Drake relays
and Missouri Valley championships
last spring.
The Nebraska captain is a student
! in the college of agriculture. He
spent the first sixteen years of his
life on a farm near Superior, Ne
braska, and intends to return to a
large cattle ranch there when his
college days are over. He is the son.
Iof Mr. and Mrs. W. G. Weir.
1 Captain Ed worked on a construc
tion gang during the summer to con
dition himself for the season's grind.
Ed and his brother. Joe, also a mem
ber of the Nebraska squad, wheeled
wet concrete for a paving gang,
building a river bottom road.
Every wheelbarrow load of con
crete that Ed pushed weighed 900
pounds and he recommends it as an
excellent muscle builder. During the
seven weeks prior to the rpeiiing of
football reason. Ed estimates he
wheeled 160 carloads of concrete.
