National Democratic Party
Has Been Born.
Gold Democrats Convention
Will Meet September 2.
To Nominate a Candidate in Oppo-
sition to Bryan.

Indianapolis. Aug. s.-The name Of the
new political party is the National Dem
ocratic party. Its organizers call those
supporting the Chicago platform and
ticket the Populist- Democratic party.
The national convention OF the National
democratic party will be held at In
dianapolis Wednesday. Sept 2.
There was unanimity in the conference
on the selection OF the name OF the Ma
tional Democratic party. and also in
determining TO distinguish the two
parties, by referring to those supporting
the Chicago platform as the Populist-
Democratic party.
There was conference before the
provisional national committee met, at
which IL was decided TO call a conven-
ton and nominate another national
ticket ~s +t
Some Of the eastern and southern MEM
bers opposed a third ticket at first but
when they were told that in the middle
states party fealty was so regarded that
many Democrats would not vote unless
there was third ticket. then all objec-
tions from the cast and south were with
drawn, and the decision to hold con-
vention was unanimous. 1t was argued
that as the campaign proceeded, and the
Republicans began TO say harsh things
OF Democrats, many OF the latter would
vote for Bryan and Sewall, distasteful
as the Chicago platform was TO them. AS
the eastern and southern gold standard
men said they were for anything TO de-
feat the Chicago ticket and platform,
they readily consented to the plan that
had been outlined by the executive COM
mil
third ticket came from Rhode Island
and Texas-the smallest and the largest
states They were given the fullest con-
sideration, because OF tho desire for
Unanimous action, which was finally se-
cured.

Hay Fever.
A Discovery for This Malady at Last--Re-
lief at Your Own Home.

lief at Your Own Home.
No one but the sufferer from hay fever
knows the agony that attends this tor,
turing malady. A continual round OF
sneezing, eyes that are weak, watery and
iflamed, a nose that runs without cessa-
tion. and grows more sore every hour
inability 10 breathe, nights that become
hours of torture, days that are long
drawn out and full OF sutfering-and all
this continues until the sufferer 10
obliged to pack up and 60 to some
locality where this disease does not
thrive. Formerly 1t was considered that
the only way hay fever could be relieved
was by a change OF climate, the noun
tains of New Hampshire being noted for
this purpose. Now it is known by ply
sicians and patients alike that sufferers
from this trouble can be relieved at home
py the use OF x-Zalia. 1he preparation
is an entirely new discovery in medicine,
it's merits for the relief OF hay fever
only becoming known within the last year
or two.
X-Zalia 10 made from the sap OF GER
tain tree, com bined with other vegeta ole
ingredients found In New Hampshire,
and contains the necessary medicinal
properties that have made New Hamp-
shire air famous for the virtuous quail
ties 1t contains for the cure of this dis
ease. Many sufferers who were sceptical
have tried x-Zalia, and, to their surprise,
found relief. Among those who may be
referred to are Mr.. W. +. Lskin, Manager
Consolidated Store Service Company,
Fiske Building, State street, Boston
Mr.. George K. Armstrong, OF the firm OF
Clark, Ward x Co., Bankers, Equitable
Building, Boston; MIR. Z. ii. Stevens,
Phillips Building, boston; Mr.. Walter
l.. Frost, 8 Congress street, Boston; Mrs.
William +. Richardson, IL Elm street,
South Framing ham, Mass. United States
Senator j. II. Gsllinger, New Hamp
shire.
1t is expensive to take a long trip to
the mountains for relief. 1t does not cost
you much to try X-Zalia right here at
home, and be convinced as to whether II
does what is claimed for 1t or not. Ask
your druggist for X-Zalia. III he does
not keep it, send III to The X-Zalia Com
pany. No. 3 Beacon street, Boston, Mass,

Farms and Factories.

II saw a sim in Kentucky while
was there, sign of but few words,
which read, Our barns are full, but
our pockets are empty Now, you
know it is necessary that you shall
have not only crops, but you shall be
able to get something for your crops
after you raise them. and if prices con.
tinue to fall and taxes do not fall,
debts do not fall, fixed charges do not
fall; then your living expenses must
be cut down, and when your living ex-
penses are cut down it means that
business of the merchants must suffer
because the merchants make their
profit out of the people to whom they
sell, not out of the people from whom
they borrow money, and if the people
cannot buy the merchants cannot sell,
and if the merchants cannot sell the
manufacturers cannot manufacture.
The republican candidate talks about
opening the mills instead OF the minis.
There is no use of opening mills unless
you have some use for the products of
the mills, and the way to dispose of
these products is to create a demand
for what mills produce, and the way
to create that demand is to increase
the power of the people to consume
profits, and you can only do that by
giving them a better price for what
they sell. The maintenance of the
gold standard means a continuance of
hard times If anybody likes hard
times he ought to vote the repu blican
ticket j. Bryan.
