convention in Baltimore on Thursday of
last week, nominated Mr.. Francis Miller,
of Montgomery, for comptrollery of the
State treasury, and Mr.. VIM. NJ. Marine,
of Hartford, for clerk of the Court of APP
peals. TIE candidates of both parties for
these State Offices are now in the field, and
the issue to Je decided at the polls in No

least. The platform criicises federal APP
pointments in this State, declares that
civil-service reform should be extended to
State and municipal Offices, and reiterates
the New York republican platform tariff
plank; that trades should be taught to
prisoners in penal and reformatory insti
tutions: that corporations should be con-
trolled that the aggregate of bonded debt
of the State and city should be restricted :;
that the State should promote the propa-
