Woodrow Wilson, democratic presidential
nominee, today declared against Warner
J. Smith, Jr., a democratic candidate for

an office which he held during President

New Battleship to
Equal in Size That
Ordered by England
WASHINGTON, Sept. .-The new
battleshlPv Pennsylvania, the only one
authorized by congress at the last ses
sion, will be fully as large as the great
battleship which the British government
has just ordered, according to plans of
the 'naval general board. Its displace
ment will exceed 30,000 tons, which Is
about enunl to the addition of a good
slxed cruiser's displacement to the big
gest ship the T'nlted States now has
afloat.
The naval board has already outlined
the features of the new vessel and an
effort will be made to get out the ad
vertisements calling for bids for the con
struction of the ship before,, congress
meets In December.
Naval men are Impelled to this course
by an apprehension that if the advml.ee
meats are not published before congress
m,eets the so-called "little navy" men
might use the fact In Justification of
their failure to provide more than one
battleship at the last session, alleging
that they had provided more funds thin
the Navy department was able to ex
pend. Sand Hill Com is
Up to the Average
. ,
"A month ago we were looking for a
bumper corn crop In Custer county," said
R. S. Harrington, a farmer living near
Broken Bow and stopping at the Mer
chants, "but we are not going to get it.
However, the crop on the whole will ba
fully up to the average.
"There are spots and limited areas in
Custer county where corn will not go
twenty bushels to the acre, the shortage
being due to the too hot weather of the
last two weeks. This weather has stopped
the growth and dried up the kernels and
ripened the ears too rapidly. This has
been the case on some of the land that is
sandy. On the bottoms and where the
soil Is a black loam, the corn Is good
and, much of 1) will yield around thirty
bushels, whlelr I as good. If not better
than the average. Most of the corn is out
of the way of frost right now."
