The ancients believed that rheumatism
was the work OF a demon within a man.
Any one who has an attack OF sciatic or
inflammatory rheumatism will agree
that the infiiction is demoniac enough
to warrant the belief. IL has never been
claimed that Chamberlain's Pain Balm,
would cast ont demons, but it will cure
rheumatism, and hundreds bear testi-
mony to the truth OF this statement.
One application relieves the pain, and
this quick relief which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. For sale by

No War on Honest Wealth.

No War on Honest Wealth.
The democratic party is not max
ing war upon the honest acquisition
of wealth; it has no desire to discour-
age industry, economy and thrift. On
the contrary, it gives to every citizt n
the greatest possible stimulu- to hon
est toll. when it promises him pro-
lection in the enjoyment Of tine pro-
ceeds of his LABOR. Property rights
are most secure when human rights
are respected. Democracy strives for
civilization in which every mem
Der of society will share according to
his merits.

society more than q fair compeusa-
tion for the service which he renders
to society. II he secures more. ii is at

Keynote of Campaign Sounded in Logic EIoquence
Addresses Delivered.

Indianapolis, Aug. 8.-William j.
Bryan, of Nebraska, and Adlai f.
Stevenson. of Illinois, were notified of
their nomination for the Offices of
president and vice president of the
republic in Military park shortly after
2:30 this afternoon. Thousands of
people witnessed the ceremony. Sea-
ator Jones, chairman of the demo-
cratic committee. was introduced by
Mayor Taggart as presidin & officer OF
of the occasion, and introduced Con-
gresham Richardson, of Tennessee.
Richardson was received with wild
cheers as he mounted the stand to
officially notify Bryan of the fact that
he had been selected the presidential
. nominee of the democratic conven-
ton.
When Bryan arose to reply q DEM
onstration occurred which perhaps
has never been equalled in this city.
The Formal Motif cation.
Hon. James ID. Richardson, of Ten
nessee. who was permanent chairman
of the Kansas City convention addr ess-
ing Mr.. Bryan, spoke of the cOnven-
tion assem- bled on the I24th anniver-
sary of the birth of this republic, a5
the most intensely American conven-
tion that ever came together in its his
tory. He referred to the action of the
convention in the choice of the candi-
date for president without a dissent
ing voice, AMI the adoption of the dec
laration of principles which he then
presented. He referred to the cam
paign of four years ago as the most
brilliant contest the democratic party
had ever experienced He spoke of
Mr.. Bryan as having led the party then,
and while he failed to win the presi-
dency he had done more; he had won
the reSpect and admiration of political
foes and the ardent love aud devo-
tion of his followe Mr.. Richardson
alluded to the unhappy division in the
party ranks then and offered his con.
gratulations that these unfortunate
conditions do not exist today. He ad
dressed Bryan as the best exponent of
the faith of our fathers. which was
articled in the declaration of indie
pendence and sealed by the blood of
patriots. He dwelt upon imperialism
and it's evils, and declared that in the
geeat battle upon US the fight would
be made thickest and hottest upon
the monster, Imperialism, which al
ways feeds upon the life blood of
liberty. He spoke of the platform
declaration against trusts and the
necessity of the enforcement of the
law against the same, and entered
into further detail on various phnks,
taking up the Bo"r question in par
ticular.
