tom of the Legislature of Maine, in order to avoid
a special meeting of that body and the conse-
quent expense to the State, on the eve Of Presi
Dental Elections to pass resolution adopting
the plurality system Of choosing electors Such

ootes cast to effect choice; thus plainly indi-
eating that there are divisions among the party
which cannot be healed, and that their last hope

cided against your favorite and in favor Of the
Champion of their rights, and are only waiting an
opportunity to deposit their ballots.
