his bargain. he had openly sought to
anita gonize the Democrats, and secretly
Iabored to SOW seeds of dissension. Mr..
Jones Rleefully announced that Gen.
Plaisted would be beaten by 10000 votes.
and that even Mr.. Murch's chances we're
doubtful They are corroborated by the
fact that Immediately after Viewers
departure for Maine prominent New
York Greenbacker visited Democratic
headquarters and informed them of the
fact. and vainly sought authority to follow
Weaver aud outbid the other side. They
are corroborated by every speech Weaver
made in Maine and other northern states
until the exposure. They are corroborated
by the result of his tour through Indiana,
as shown in the recent election, where, as
press dispatches state, "the Greenbackers
have voted very largely for Porter. the
Republican candidate for governor.
Do not these facts aud the letters and
kilograms above given, showing the desire
OF the Republicans to orga pizs bolt In
Maine, bear out my original statement?
DYER ID. LUM
WASHINGTON, Oct. l6.
After the above clear statement Of the
facts. no Greeabacker can afford to vote
for Weaver, who is using bis party for his
own personal ends.
The rank and file of the Grecuback
party are honest in their convictions. but
shey are being sold out by their leaders.
There is no earthly show for Weaver. and
every Greeubacker who is such from prip.
ciple. should vote for Gen Hancock, not
only because he is the purest man. but
because they should do so as rebuke to
the leaders who have been bsrtering their
