The Election.

One of the most Lotly contested
elections ever held in our city came
of yesterday. The Democracy, con-
scious that the people had determined
to no longer entrust their affairs t.
Mayor WALKERS S management, i'm
ported large numbers of men and put
them to work upon the streets. Our
people have seen them lettering about,
day after day, and the indignation
their presence naturally aroused
swelled the Republican vote largely.
1t will be noticed that in large ma
jority of the wards the contest was very
close, showing thorough organization
on the part of both parties. We are
glad to record that, notwithstanding
the intense excitement and earnest
efforts on the part of both parties, the
election was very quiet. There was
no quarreling that we observed or
heard Of The result is a most mag
nifcent Republican triumph. We GER
tainly congratulate the Crescent
Club on its splendid organization and
/ the effective manner in which its can
! didates were beaten. It's President,
Mr. F. P. CARSON, pleasant gentle
man, is beaten IN Ward that was made
Democratic by gerymandering. Mr..
VAN RIPPER, another Of its original
ors. and most graceful and elegant
managers, is fairly beaten in the Third
Ward. and will not, we presume,
claim the seat. He must confess that
he is fairly beaten and will, we doubt
not, yield to his defeat as gracefully
as possible. The truth is he took toe
large a dose of the "SHANKLIN
Boys" and the negro. 1t was toe
much for even his strong constitution
The latest returns show that. W.
have carried the entire city ticket, anC
seven out of the nine Councilmen
The defeat of WILLIAM HEILMAN il
, the Fifth Ward by one majority, vii
occasion great regret among all Re
publicans. The disappointment wa
all the keener because he was at frs
2 reported elected by five votes.
Col. GRILL, Notwithstanding hi
: | earnest efforts, is beaten Tor Town
ship Trustee. The Irish ward wa
too much for him.
