LINICOLN, Juy 21. Faced with
semi-official information that neither
Bryan nor Billy Sunday will be avail
able to head the national ticket, the
Prohibition party temporarily forgot
nominees at the opening of its con

two hours of speech-making. Henry

Judging from communications coin

Mr. Iiryau stands chief in the nffcc

party," said Mr. Ilinshaw. "With
the two old parlies standing silent,
many believe he could lie elected as
president on the Prohibition ticket."
Reviewing other possibilities for
the Prohibition nomination the party
chairman said that Daniel A Poling
of Boston stood net to Hryan. Mr.
Itoling is associate president of the
World's Christian Kndeavor Societies
and was the keynote speaker at the
lhltl Prohibition convention. Mr.

"We must place in the field a ticket

f ualiy be adopted, hut he character
ized President Wilson's course in
handling it as having "too much
the flavor of autocracy," and said his
plan could not bo adopted "with
out radical revision."
ON PROHBTITION
On prohibition Mr. Watkins said:
"When we inquire of the leaders
of tho two major parties why an
iron clad prohibition plank was omit
ted from each of the party platforms,
we are blandly informed that the
ipiestioii is settled! Years ago when
Re pleaded for such a plank, they
-aid that it never can be settled, or,
at any rate, it is too soon to make
, lie fight Now it is too lute lo men
tun the nubjeet' 1 wonder when
would have been the psychological
moment nhat the question of prohibi
tion would have been strictly up-to-date.
"This is a subterfuge, of course.
Merely setting down a group of fig
ures does not solve a problem and a
declaration of war does uol coiiquel
a nation: neither does the passage
if a law. statutory or constitutional,
settle any question Prohibition is
not settled and will not bo settled
until the machinery of government is
attached and the lawbreakers sur
render unconditionally.
"Kvery refusal for law-enforcement
simply encourages the wet forces to
believe that the present wave of en
thusiasm will recede and that the
people will soon forget Then the
fight can be renewed with some hope
of success. Hence the silence of
these platforms is a wet silence and
will be so interpreted Neutrality is
now an impossibility. One side or
the other is defeated, and the parties
that permit such a result have simply
refused to take the oath of allegieuce.

SANDY HOOK, July 21. The
American defender Resolute won her
first 'race of the 1920 series for the
American cup. She must take two
mure straight victories to prevent
Shamrock IV from lifting the trophy.
Taking the lead after the start, the
Resolute held first place almost to
the finish line. Within a mile of the
finish, the Shamrock drew alongside,
but the Resolute was granted a time
allowance of seven minutes and one
second and was safe.
Had it not been for the time allow
ance which the challenger had to
give, she would have won, because
she finished 18 seconds ahead of the
defender. She crossed the starting
line, however, 19 seconds ahead of
the Resolute and so, boat for boat, by
unofficial timing, lost the race by one
second plus the seven minutes and
one second she had to give the defender.
