/ BUFFALO, Nov. O. lsJl. &
A. a general thing outside the city OF New YORK
the political canvass throughout state has been
rather quiet In rural districts there has been
| good deal or local squabbng, and IN others more
less excltemcnt over candidates lor the Legiss-
ture but neither these squabbes rhe excitement
extend To the general state ticket Both political
parties have shown themselves practically united ~
supporting their representative nominees Tor state
oices There s, 1t - true, dinerence OF opinion
as to the eject OF local dlsa0recments Oh the agnr0
gate Some persons think The rivalry In local
matters will have tendency to bring ont the latent
strength OF the republicans and 1t will have shat
tendency IN some localities; while other persons

TRE TAMMANY HALL TROUBLES
Will not, It is believed, have that effect reducino
the democratic vote which the republicans had hoped.
| The greater portion Of the democrats all through
the rural districts perfectly satisfied with ho
action Of the Rochester Convention In denouncing
| the corruptions OF the Tammany Ring. Each
locality has questions which concern only the peo-
pie immediately interested. There are good many
people in The country who look upon the Tammany
troubles as local matter affecting principally the
city OF New York-nOt as STATE or national ques-
hon as the republicans nave attempted 10 maze IT.
The more confident Of the rural democrats have ex-
pressed themselves as beny as mucn opposed to
corruption az the republicans claim to bc anu have
given 1t out tnas they were delighted ar the mpend.

In their opinlon It would tend to purify the party.

assume the proud position It occupied ia the days
OF its superior strength ana greatness. They con.
tend that there is as much corruption among re-
publicans. where that party Is control OF matters,
as there Is anywhere among democrats, and tnat It
ts ridiculous for the radicals to 10 have the
monopoly OF patriotism, purity OF purpose devotion
to the public interests and personal integrity In
once. On the other hand, the republicans, a.
body, are
NOT HARMONIOUS
over the proceedings OF their Syracuse Convention.
The Fenton wing are disappointed because, as they
arege the Convention was controlled Dy the
Conkling- Murphy Interest The feeling on mat
subject is very strong In the western section
OF the State, where Fenton and Greeley have many
influential champions. The effect OF this dissatls-
faction has been cause lack OF interest in tho
canvass. While the Fcnton faction have not taken
any active measures against the regular republican
State ticket, out rather have followed TO some ex-
tent the Senator's injunctions, they have been.
nevertheless very lukewarm over IL. While all
rural republicans have sustained their party candi.
