DEALS WITH FEW QUESTIONS
Mr.. Bryan Outlines His Speech OF
Acceptance.

Lincoln, Neb, Aug. 6.-William J.
Bryan, Democratic nominee for the
presidency, has outlined the subjects
which he will discuss in his forthcom-
ing speech of acceptance. The speech
will be confined practically to the
questions Shall the People Ruler"
and The Measure of Rewards"
The other issues of the campaign,
such as guarantee of bank deposits,
the tariff, the trusts, etc, will be
treated in the several speeches he will
make in the next thirty Iays.
THE notification speN Nh," said Mr..
Bryan, will deal with Nt few ques-
tions. Having a letter of acceptance
to write later and several speeches to
make on important topics, such as the
tariff, the trusts, the banking ques-
ton, the labor question, imperialism,
etc, it was not necessary to include
them in this speech and | could not
have done justice 20 any one ques-
tion If ! treat a number.
"Our platform declared the over
shadowing question to be Shall the
People Rule?' and in this speech
take up the conditions and endeaVor
to show what has produced these con.
ditions and how they can be remedied
and how the people can be put into
control of their own government.
The only other subject discussed
is the Measure of Rewards the aim
of all just government being to Sc
cure to each individual the reward tc
| which his work entities him"

EIGHT THOUSAND men
LAY DOWN TOOLS
Canadian Pacific Strike Extends
From Coast to Coast.

Winnipeg, Man, Aug. 6.-Ths big
gest labor dispute which the indus.
trial history of Canada has known
eliminated in the form of a general
strike when the employees Of the me.
chanical departments of the Canadian
Pacific railroad from the Atlantic to
the Pacific coast, some eight thousand
in number, laid down their tools and
quit work because the decision of the
Cancellation board, which was appoint
ed under the Lemieux act of Canada,
was not in accord with what they
wanted. Not merely i'm number of
men involved is the magnitude Of the
walkout indicated, bat in the fact that
1t involves greater financial interests
and covers more territory than any
strike which has heretofore beer
recorded in railway circles. The local
end of the event was represented by
the cessation from work Of some one
thousand men who are employed in
Winnipeg shops, Nearly half of the
men involved are on the Western sec
tions Of the road, The exact number
being 3,5OG The total number affect
ed on Eastern lines is $500, making
5000 men on strike.
Approximate figures show that the
average weekly payroll of the mechan,
ical department of the Canadian Pa
cific railroad is close to $250,000 Thus
If the strike lasts a month ii will take
a cool 81 900, 900 out of the pockets OF
| the 5000 men. The average daily pay
of each man is something under $4
Rumors are current in some circles
| that the members of the operating de
partments would also go out in sym
| patny, but this is thought scarcely
probable. So far only the mechanical
departments are affected, while the
operating section, which includes en-
| gineers, conductors, telegraphers
maintenance of way men and tiremer
are not involved.

Buffalo, n. Y, Aug. Civilian ].
Bryan will make several campaign
tours which will embrace nearly all
parts of the country, speaking in most
of the principal cities between the At

dates itinerary is now under prepara-
tion by Norman Z. Mack, chairman of
the Democratic national committee,
who made known the general plan for
the tours. John w. Kern, the Demo

likely accompany Mr.. Bryan on part of
the trip and Chairman Mack hopes to
arrange to have Mr.. Kern speak with
Mr.. Bryan when he makes his visit to
New York state. Mr.. Mack said:
while the present plans are tenta-
tive and subject to change Mr. Bryan
will make several tours, which will
take in practically the whole United
States. He will speak only in large
cities and will not attempt TO do the
exhaustive work that he has done in
other of his campaigns. Soon after
the notification of Mr.. Bryan in Lin
coin he will speak in the middle Sec
tion of the country, visiting Chicago,
Cleveland, Cincinnati st. Louis and
other cities. Later Mr.. Bryan will go
East and on this trip am planning to
have Mr.. Kern make joint speaking
tour with him.
THE Pacific coast states also will
be visited by Mr.. Bryan, probably
after the trip in the East. No definite
dates for any of The cities have been
set and will not be for some little
time.

SMITH WILL NOT INTERFERE
Declarations of Filipino Politician
Purely Personal.

Manila, Aug. 6.-Governor General
Smith, in reply to the protest made
by the Spanish residents of this city
against the utterances of Simon Villa,
a candidate for alderman, who on
July % declared in the course of a
speech that he hated everything Span
ish and in case of another revolution
would advocate the killing of every
Spaniard in Manila, said that the in
cident lacked the slightest hint of
any International aspect, Villas in
flammatory declarations being those
of private citizen only and not ut
tered by any one in an official capac-
ity. 1t is presumed that this closed
the incident.
A lively municipal campaign is now
in progress here and the American
residents are endeavoring to defeat
villa for alderman of the city.
