TIE NOMINATION OF GOVERNOR CLARK

TO the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir In your issue OF the Gath instant, In your
notice OF the death OF Myron H. Clark you speak OF
his election as having been made by the Republicans
This Is an error Mr.. Clark was the nominee OF the
Wing State Convention which. that year, was con,
troIlcd by the Prohihonlsts. The writer was elected
10 the Assembly from this county the same year
$3.50 as a Whig. y. c. BOlNION.
Kecne N Y, Aug. 25, 1892.
THE meaning Of what The Tribune said was
that the several party Notwithstanding, Anti
Nebraska, Temperance and Free Dcmocracy-which
nominated Mr.. Clark in 1854 formed the Repup'
lican party in this State in 1855. Some Of his
supporters used the name Republican IN their
State organizations.-Ed)
