"POTTsvILLE, Sept. 81, 1880.
General J. B. Weaver, National Green
back-Labor Candidate for President
Your published congratulations to Solon
Chase, encouraging by approving his dis

electors for Weaver and Chambers in
Maine, and to ensure the election of seven
Garfield electors instead, forfcits your
claims to the support of the organization.
