To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: Your correspondent So in a letter In to-

as the rest OF his article is we'll considered. He
writes: George Clinton Governor q. e. OF New.
York; from l7s3 20 1853, and again from III 70
1876" He thus confounis the Colonia. GovcrnoS
and bluff old English Admiral Clinton with George
Clinton who was first Governor OF the State OF
New-York and afterward Vce-President OF the
United States from $50. 10 1872. The relationship
between these two personages was, al best, ex'

CAPTURING THE CONVENTION

San Francisco is aroused to the port
ance OF securing the next national Re
publican convention, and the work Of
placing the claims of that city before th o
national Republican com mi ttee has fairly
commenced. The expenses attendant
upon the reception and care of the con-
veDtiun involve the necessity OF raising a
fund OF 500, 000 The three leading news
papers of the city have taken the initia-
tive in the building of this amount, and
as far as approached the business m en-
seem to be responding commercially.
The zeal With which influential force in
the Golden Gate metropolis have taken
hold of the movement promises well for
its success
But for reasons which The Herald has
set forth at length, more than once, the
whole region west of the Mississippi, and
particularly the entire Pacific coast, is
vtally intere sted in the project to in
duce the Republican ticket builders to per-
form their labors in the chief city OF the
Pacific coast. Hence it is neither lust
nor polite to leave San Francisco to
bear the burden of work and expense
alons. The proper and m )st equitable
thing tn do and tbe conrse that w,rl1
give the best assurance of attaining the
end de7irsd. would he to create in each
