Byran tonight formally accepted the nomination for vice president by the democratic party, and laid down in unmistakable terms the principles and Issues upon which he will go before the people for vic tory at the polls. In the center of the football field at the University of Nebraska memor ial stadium, Governor Bryan made his speech of acceptance, following the lead of his party's standard bearer, John W. Davis, who a week ago chose the open for launching the democratic campaign at Clarksburg, W. Va. Says Honesty Needed. Governor Bryan definitely opened his campaign with a promise to the progressive farmers and wage earners that the democratic party would stand as a unit In seeking a solution of their difficulties. Senator Harri son of Mississippi, who delivered the notification address, also acclaimed the democratic organization as the only one to which the progressive ele ments could look for direction and leadership and asserted the presi dential race would be between the two major parties. The vice presidential candidate praised his party’s platform, as broad, strong and progressive enough to justify the support of those who believe In equality before the law and declared the democrats have pre sented a program of progressive poli cies "for which the party stands as a unit, without the Intervention of faction, bloc or section.” ’ Honesty, efficiency and economy In government were declared by the nominee as the need of the hour. Dwells On Farmer's Need. He dwelt particularly on agricul ture and charged the republicans with changing the farmers' condition "from prosperity to adversity." Their policy, he said, of reducing the higher surtax schedule on Incomes and removing the tax from the profiteer had shifted the burden to the shoulders of those least able to pay and caused Injury to the farm ers. Discussing war, Governor Bryan declared the democratic party would endeavor to secure world disarma ment by international agreement and seek also an International referendum on the subject. War propaganda, mobilization, dem onstrations of civilians and Industrial resources, he deplored as a great eco nomic waste, misleading and unneces sarily Inflammatory. Labor must he dealt with humanly, Governor Bryan asserted, adding that the democratic party "has al ways been the laboring man’s friend, not to secure his vote but because the nation cannot progress unless he progresses " Strict public control and conserva tion of natural resources, develop ment of Muscle Shoals, recovery of the country's oil reserves and other parts of the public domain "which have been fraudulently or illegally leased or otherwise transferred to pri vate Interests" were advocated by the nominee. The democratic platform pledged Itself, he added, to "respect and enforce the constitution nnd all U. S. and Sweden Sign Treaty on Liquor Importations By Univernal Washington, Aug. 18.—A treaty to prevent the illegal Importation of In toxicating liquor was established be tween the United States and Sweden today. The agreement, which Is similar to those this country has made with Great Britain and Germany, was signed May 22 and the ratifications of the two countries were exchanged at the state department today. West Point Yonth Held. Albion, Neb., Aug. 18,—Sheriff Ar buthnot went to West Point and ar rested Harry Nellgh, 19, on a charge of Issuing a no-fund check and brought him to Albion for trial.

Chicago, Aug. 18.—William M. But ler, national republican chairman, in a statement today, said his reports showed a steady and consistent Im provement In the republican cam paign and that he had found that President Coolldge's own issue, “com mon sense,” appeals to many. Mr. Butler, In Indicating republican hopes and expectations, said “Mary land looks very good” and "Ken tucky I can also speak of with con fidence. In Kentucky we will win a new senatorial seat." In New York and New Jersey vil lages and towns, he said, Coolldge Dawes clubs are being organized to obtain pledges for a solid republlcari vote for each entire community. He said he questioned messengers t|ho brought these reports as to what sort of communities and people who have signed these pledges and received the reply “the men who go to work at 7 and the women who hang out their own clothes on Monday morn ing.” These clubs signing up entire vil lages, the statement Indicated, Is part of a desire to make the Coolidge vote "a standard for the future.” “As to the northwestern states, the statement continued, I am referring to Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska, and let us say Wisconsin, I think the average observer will agree with me that recent agricultural develop ments have not Injured our pros pects.” FARMER’S SON KILLS HIMSELF Special Plapateh t» The Omaha Bee. Tecumseh, Neb., Aug. 18.—Ralph Walters, 23, son of Mr. and Mrs. William Walters, east of Crab Orchard, committed suicide some time during the last two days.

HOUGH SPURNED BY HIS FATHER (Continued From Phrp One.) when I woke up. I went to a farm house near Clarinda and got some eggs and milk, because I thought I had been poisoned by the liquor. I found my car over a hill from the farmhouse, but the men and my wl/e were gone. "I also found that the men had robbed me of about MS and my mar riage certificate. I drove around a while looking for Lillian, then went to Oakland. I left Oakland Thursday to go back to my father's home at St. Charles, S. D. "I borrowed a gun from Mrs. Will Chambers of Oakland, but when I got to Cushing I pawned it for $2.” ' Claims Purchased Auto. Hough admitted he learned of the girl's death at Denison, where he read of the finding of the body in a newspaper. Answering all questions put to him with a bare "yes" or “no," Hough kept at sea police and detectives who tried for hours to get a confession from him. State Agent H. M. Long and Dep uty Sheriff Paul Parrish of Taylor county arrived here at 8 last night and with local police and detectives questioned Hough all day. He said ho purchased the Bulck touring car at Herrick on July 30, paying J300 for it. The machine had been stolen from Dr. Sager, a Nor folk dentist, but the theft was not re ported until July 31. Hough says he did not get a bill of sale for the car, and that he believed it was “hot” when he bought it. Under the back seat of the "death car” when it was found were a pair of men’s gray pants with blood on them. Officers stated that gasoline had been used apparently to partially remove the blood. Hough said he had not worn the trousers for over a year. Powder Puff Found. A number of hairpins, a dark hair net. a powder puff and a woman's jersey sweater, similar to the one worn by the slain girl when she left home, ulso were found in the car. Hough admitted that he had been in the reformatory at Anamosa, Ia„ for car theft. "Hough" was arrested on Informa tion furnished by John "Dutch” Beach of Omaha. Beach had traveled with the man from Odebolt, la., where they became acquainted last Thursday. It was not until Beach saw the story of the murder in a Sioux City paper, containing a picture of Hough, that he had any suspicions concerning his fellow traveler.

Coolidge Real Dirt Fanner President Rakeg Hay on His Father’s Farm iri Ver mont Hills. Ity GEORGE E. DURNO. International News Service Staff Cor respondent. Plymouth, Vt., Aug. IS.—President Coolidge set out today to establish himself as a real "dirt farmer.” A hay ^field was his Betting. Two hand made wooden rakes furnished the In spiration. There wasn’t much work to be done, for most of the hay was gath ered. Col. John Coolldge, the presi dent's father, had thoughtfully left a small patch, however. •'I' thought maybe Calvin would like to try his hand at It,” the old man explained. The rakes were presented to the president and his father soon after breakfast by Representative Tread way of Massachusetts, who" had made a special trip to Plymouth for them. Aside from the hay raking, the president's third day of vacation In the Vermont hills was without par ticular Incident.

Burgess Bedtime Stories ^ ——-* By THORNTON \V. BURGESS. Appetite Overcomes Caution. He little better la that fool Who permits appetite to rule. —Old Mother Nature. Never had the blueberries in the Old Pasture been bigger. Never had they been sweeter. Never had they been more plentiful. Never had Bus ter Bear enjoyed him self more. Next to honey, Buster Bear likes sweet, ripe blueberries. Buster was making a pig of himself. Those berries were He continued to strip those berries from the bushes into his mouth. the kind known as hlgh-bush blue berries. Some of those bushes were high enough and big enough almost to be small trees. Buster sat up, or stood up, to strip those berries from the bushes. Now of all people of the Green Forest there is none with greater caution than Buster Bear. Buster's eyes are rather small for his size and they nre not the best of eyes. There are many eyes In the Green Forest better than the eyes of Buster Bear. But his ears and his nose are of the best. He depends on these more than he does on his eyes. And it Is seldom that he forgets to keep them busy. But this morning appetite had over came caution. Buster could think of nothing but filling his stomach with those delicious blueberries. It takes a lot of berries to fill the stomach of such a big fellow as Buster Bear. Buster was stripping those berries from the bushes Into his mouth as fast as he could. He wasn't at all fussy. He didn't mind getting some green ones with the ripe ones. He didn't mind getting some leaves and an occasional tiny twig. Once In a while he grunted with satisfaction, The merry LItle Breezes of Old J Mother West Wind were dancing about up there in the Old Pasture.

Buster didn't heed them. He didn't listen to the little sounds they carried. He didn't sniff to catch the little scents they carried. He ww too greedy. He thought of nothing but filling that big stomach of his with those big, sweet, delicious berries. Now the Merry Little Breezes are among Buster’s best friends, in fact, he has no better friends. When they found he would pay no attention to them at all they were both hurtt and a wee bit provoked. They had done their best to warn him that there was some one In the Old Pasture whom he probably would rather not meet. Now they decided to go off and leave him alone. "Did you ever see such a greedy fellow?” exclaimed one as they danced away, leaving Buster alone. ,'Tt will serve him right If he gets a good scare,” said another. "He has forgotten that he has eyes for any thing but to see blueberries. He has forgotten that he has ears or nose at all. He Is thinking of nothing but his stomach. How any one can allow appetite to rule him completely Is more than I can understand." But Buster heard nothing of this. He continued to strip those berries from the bushes into hla mouth and occasionally grunt with pleasure. He might have been the only person in all the Great World for all the thought he gave to others. Buster was plggsh. He certainly was piggish. Could you have watched him you would have thought that he had an Idea that somehow those berries were likely to suddenly disappear and that he must get all he could before this happened.
