CONTROLLER HoPKINss MERITS.
From NE Rochester DeHOrra. and ChroRcle ttfp) .
We alluded few days ago to Controller
Hopkins and State Engineer Taylor who we're eandi-
dates for nomination. We trust that C0nIQar opAlns
not afford ignore such men when they VIII consent TO
accept tho position 1t Is doubtful II inc state mas had
the Office than the present incumbent. during single
term he has made reputation for vigilance and nf'
ness and a comprehensive grasp Of principles which
none of his predecessors grasped. None al them has
wrought reforms. prevented more extravaganza,
saved the state money, or made a
deeper impress the public policy of the state.
IL rs OF the first Importance. them to the people OF the
state that Controller should be OF the highest
honesty courage, HlI capacity. Controller Hopkins
has shown himself such man, and the only criticisms
passed upon hun In effect that he IS good officer,
aud the Republican party cannot act wiser or help
itself more efoctually than by renOmnating him
which fact seems be already oregOne conclusion IN
the public mind.
