Hall County Will Not Oppose
Ratification bf Prohibition
Grand Island, Neb., July 26. (Spe-
rial.) For the two ? nominations to
be made in this county the republi
cans have three candidates for the
legislature and one filing for the state
senate. The democrats have only
one filing for the two representatives
and one filing for the senate, though
there arc said to be two filings in
Howard and Greeley counties on
each side for the state senate. Since
the filings have been closed it is ob
served :that not one of the candi
dates it out in opposition to the rati
fication of the national prohibition
amendment, whereat every candidate
admittedly having a chance to be
nominated is outspoken for such
ratification. Hall county, therefore,
though voting in the wet, column by
a small' majority in November, 1917,
will not only provide a solid vote for
ratification but not even an effort
has been made to bring out any can
didate opposed to such action."

Hurley Tells Latin Guests
Neighbors"NWiIL Share in
Great Merchant Marine's
; , r Benefits. "
Philadelphia, July 26. Latin AmerU
can diplomats, the guests of the ship
ping board at an inspection of" the
Hog Island ship yard, were told to
day by Chairman Hurley that the
great merchant marine now being
built by the United States mus( bring
prosperity to America's neighbo?,as
well as to this country, or the pride of
the United States.ln the achievement
will be, diminished.
"You mayvsend back toyour own
peoples the word that these ships will
not be used exclusively for this na
tion's aggrandizement in peace," he
declared, "any more than they are
used for such aggrandizement in the
war that is now waging. Our duty is
to build a bridge of ships to our fight
ing front in France. Our expectation
is that a large part of this bridge will
be used to connect us more closely
with our neighbors when the war is
over a bridge that will be used aa
freely and with, quite as much advan
tage, by our neighbors as by our
selves.. "It has been taken down as a rule
of our conduct at home during the
war that no excessive profit shall be
made out of the struggle of humanity.
That rule will not be lifted when peace
comes.
Ships to Aid Neighbors.
''The ships that are being built by
the United States as instruments of
war are designed to serve equally well
as the instruments of peace. The
great fleet that this country is build
ing will be operated after the war
upon principles which recogr ze
human and national rights and equi
ties. That fleet will serve Latin
America as it serves the people of the
United State It will serve the world
as America is now serving the world
in fighting for the cause of liberty.
"When the war is won, as it must
be if this hemisphere is to be freed
from the constant menace of militar.
ism, the ships thai have served their
militarv ourooses will play a large
part in bringing the neighboring na-N
tions Oi tms continent tioacr lugcuicr,
reducing the delays in making per
sonal and commercial contact, and ce
menting the bonds of comradeship."
