Mr.. Bryan will attend the mott.

No attempt is made at Fairview TO
disguise Mr.. Bryan's desire to
plunge into the campaign in New
York state. but why no announce
ment is made OF his purpose to tour
that state is not understood by his
friends here. The report has reached
Lincoln that Charles +. Murphy,
William r. Connors and other lead
ers of the Democratic organization
at New York, have expressed objec-
tions to Mr.. Bryan making a tour
of the state, and requesting that they
be allowed to direct the campaign
there In their own way.
while en- route to fill speaking en-
gagements already arranged Mr..
Bryan will deliver short addresses
from the rear platform Of his car.
He intimated today that he might re-
main at Fairview all the month ol
October and give out from here daily
comments for the press upon devel'
opments of the campaign.
Mr.. Bryan was very much shocked
by what early reports seemed to in
dicate was an attempt upon the life
of Judge Taft, and, although lie de
clined to be directly quoted, expressed
the hope that later reports would
show that the shot was not directed
at the Republican nominee, or, In
deed, at any member of the party ol
which Mr.. Taft was member.
Discussion Of the subject led up to
the query Of Mr.. Bryan II he had
yet taken any precautions to protect
himself from the possible assaults Of
irresponsible cranks. He said he hat
not, or did he think such course
, either was necessary or advisable.
\
Mr.. Bryan today expressed mucl
satisfaction at the responses thai
are being made TO his appeal through
the Democritic newspapers for volun
tary campaign subscriptions.
Among the callers at Fairview TO-
day was G.. A. Evans, Sheriff o.
Loup county, Nebraska. When h'
had introduced himself by his officia
title to the Democratic leader, Mr.
Bryan, smilingly said to the Sheriff
TWell, what have ] done?'
"You made as speech out our wa,
one time," replied Sheriff Evans.
"Isn't the offense outlawed by this
timer" inquired the nominee.
Sheriff Evans admitted that It was

today and which ended with the
giving out of the following state
ment by Attorney General Bona
parte:
'Hrhe government will make every
effort in its power to secure a re-
vision of the recent decision and
opinion of the circuit court of ap-
peals for the seventh circuit in the
case of the Standard Oil Co. OF In
diana, either by the court of appeals
itself. or. II necessary, by the sup
rene court of the United States.
The gentlemen who have been
In consultation with me all unite
IN my opinion that in the interest
OF the impartial and effective ad-
ministration OF our laws. such ac-
tion on the part of the government
Is imperatively demanded by the oir-
.cumstances of the case and the
possible consequence if this opin-
ion should stand as authority with
out question by the government
To this end an application for a
Ieargument of the case and mo
tion for modification of the opin-
ion will be submitted to the circuit
count Of appeals on behalf of the
United States at the earliest possible
moment"
In discussing the various aspects
of the case, Attorney General Roma
parte took occasion TO refer TO the
report published in certain newspa-
pers to the effect that, w, Parmelee
Prentice, the son-in-law OF John ID.
Rockefeller, had given or was TO
give a dinner to the attorney gem
eral, Mr.. Rockefeller, and Judge

Lincoln, Neb., July 80. William
J. Bryan devoted a hard days work
In temperature that was exceeding
ly oppressive, even on the heights OF
Fairview, TO critical study of the
speech of acceptance of his opponent,
William II. Taft, and also gave some
detailed attention to the brief itln-
erary Of a part of the country he
intends to make soon after the deliv-
very of his own speech of acceptance
here August 12.
MIR. Bryan issued yesterday after
noon carefully prepared statement
of his views of Judge Taft's speech
The statement reads:
al have read Mr.. Taft"s speech and
shall discuss II as | deal with the
various subjects upon which 1t treats
For instance, in speech at Topeka
Kan, between now and September
4, shall discuss the guaranty OF
bank deposits and contrast Mr..
Taft's position with the Democratic
position. In my Labor Day speech
at Chicago on September z, I shall
discuss his attitude on the labor
question. In other speeches shall
discuss his attitude on the tariff
question, the trust question and other
questions upon which he has ex'
pressed himself.
"The most notable feature OF his
speech is his attempt to amend the
Republican platform by engraftins
upon 1t some of the planks OF thu
Democratic platform. He is evident
ly not satisfied with the work OF hi
convention and Is deeply impressed
by the work of the Democratic con
vention.
"He is charitable, however II
not giving the Democratic party cred
II for having pointed out the reforms
which his own convention repudiated
but which, he in halfhearted way
indorses.
/ "The speech shows that he hesitate'
TO adopt his real and substantial re
FORMS"
Upon the subject Of his campaign
Mr.. Bryan spoke with unaccustomet
caution today. Although volunteer
ing the statement that he would make
numerous speeches in various parts
of the country during the month o.
/ September, he asserted that he was
not yet prepared to announce either
the number or the places of their de-
livery. His first set speech after
his notification probably will be made
at Topeln, Kan, soon after the mid
die of August. He is scheduled for q
Labor Day speech at Chicago on Sep
tember 7, and on September he will
speak at Peoria, H., while the Dem

THE CONTEST

The Mirror has just closed an
ether highly successful voting con-
test, based upon circulation basis.
The result has doubtlessly been a
surprise to many since the honors
went 10 one of the smaller towns
in the county. but II has demon

the smaller towns of the county are
rot to be ignored when 1t comes
10 voting, no matter whether it be

closed by the Mirror or the kind
which closes when the polls close
on election day.
The result of a contest such as
that which has been waIying for the
past weeks cannot possible be salts

Judge RockelI gave no additional
reasons for his purpose OF with

no trouble to be reelected, and 1t IS

that failed because did not take
the American ambassador into my
confidence. In that regard I do not
think that the Canadian parliament
OF the Canadian people will blame
me-"
1T has been also stated in the press
that there was some clashing between
yourself and the representatives Of
the British foreign Office" was sug-
gested.
Nothing could be further from the
truth. The facts are the other way"
said Mr.. Lemieux.
Speaking generally Mr.. Lemieux
said he was received by the Japanese
authorities in the most friendly spirit.
Japan was proud of her alliance with
Great Britain and the result was
strong friendship for Canada, as part
of the British empire. Canada upon
her own account was well thought
of in Japan. Canadians were found
there in every walk of life, doing well.
The prospects of an increasing trade
between the two countries in the near
future made this bond all the stronger.
The great question in Japan, Mr..
Lemieux proceeded to say, was immi-
grafton. Whatever feeling there was
over the Vancouver affair disappeared
by the prompt action of Canada and
the letter Of Sir WiHrid Laurier. There
was a general impression that Canada
could not be held responsible for the
Vancouver matter. Japan was looking
to Asiatic points for emigration to
this continent.
