DELAWARE COUNTY DEMOCRATS.
oUIsPoKEN IN THEIR DISLIKE OF THE TAMMANY
TICKET.

Walton, N Y. Oct. 90 (SpeciaD.-Deavare County
again will take her place in line with the other Re
publican counties Of the State, and Will give good
mslortes for the Republican State, Senate Assembly
and county tickets Last fall the county deserted the
Republican party and sent Democratic Member OF
Assembly to Albany but she will not do 50 again for
some time to come. AS in the other counties Of the
State where through Republican disaection and Dem
ocrar Misrepresentation, Democrats took the place
Of Republicans, the people have had enough Of that
sort Of thing, and the voters intend to have some
one in Albany on whom they can depend.
The State ticket has taken hold upon the farmers
of Delaware County, as 1t has upon the farmers Of
the other counties. and they heartily in favor Of
1t. From one end of the county TO the other it IS
absolutely impossible 10 find Republican who is at
all dspleased with the nominations which were made
at the Rochester convention. on the other hand. one
meets almost at every turn Democratic farmers who
openly announce that they intend 10 vote against the
ticke. Of Tammany Hall There IS here strong
feeling among those who live upon their farms and
in the small villages which scattered through the
county that Tammany Hall deliberately stole from
General Edward +. Jones the nomination for Gov
ernor, which rghtfully beonged to him. In spite Of
Tammany protestatons this feeling will not down. and
a Tammany orator might just as well talk of the
top Of one Of the high hills around here 10 attempt
TO argue point with Delaware County farmer after
his mind has once been made up. General Jones has
known among the gIangers and the Grand Army
men, and he frequently comes here on business and
pleasure trips The sign Of Jones OF BinghamtOn'
Is seen on most OF the scales in around here.
His paper "Tte Husbandman," has wide circulation
In this region and many Democrat has taken MS
advice and win fellow him in the effort to let Tam
MANY Hall come no nearer to them than Sing sing.
The Democratic campaign managers now conceoe
that the Republican state ticket will have not less
than 600 majority in the county Their concession
of this much means that the majority may be nearer
500 than the figure they give. The Republicans
who have been travelling through the county that
it will be at least 200. The normal majority in
state elections in former years been between 500
and / oOo but from the number Of Democrats who
saw they will not vote for Flower the prospects Tor
increasing considerably were never better.
The hardest fight In the county Is over the Member
~ Assembly. Henry Davie, who represents the dis
trict this year on account of the dissatisfaction OF inc
Republican farmers with the candidate nominated by
the Republicans year ago. Is making desperate
nersonal canvass He is scotchman and he has
large number OF friends among the seotchmeh ID uhe
county BY whom il mainly settled. This will not onset
his unpopularity in other quarters, owing to the un
certainty of his votes on certain questions lie was
much like the Irshman's flea during the last session
when his constituents thought they had MN on any
particular question, that was lus the uH I' T T
