The overwhelming and disastrous do de feat of Uie Democratic party and lis candidates In this city yesterday, sur prising even Uie victors by tlie extent of it, Is difficult of adequate explanation. If It were a matter of ft small majority It would net be difficult te account for by any one of a half score of explanations, which taken aitogeuier scarcely eervu iu make plain the causes of this cemplete rout of the Democrats in n city which has been bucU hotly contested fighting ground for Bome years past. It Is idle for any Demecrat te close his eyes te the fact that the natural clianges in uie Mniiiiivil flftmtilAxten of Lancaster are largely te the advantage of the oppesl tlen. The increase In the population mostly comes from the surrounding county an partakes of Its partlsau character ; a very considerable share of It Is made up of county office holders or office hunters. The districting of the city, be as te give the Republicans seven out of nine wards, Is largely in favor of their organization, and the Increased vote yesterday benefited them three fold. Their train band of office holders operating in every ward supplies them with an organization that volunteer effort can scarcely compete with. The Republicans entered upon their work yesterday with ro30urces that they have nover had here bofero, and applied them with a desperation of prodigality previously unknown even te themselves. The practlca of hiring " poll commit tees," which has come te embrace the wholesale corruption of voters, and which. both parties have indulged in here for some years past, prevailed yea terday te such a degree that the Deme crats suffered disastrously from It. It 19 idle new te undertake te fix the re speuslblllty for this evil ; nelther party has been free from reproach for its con -tlnuaiice ; bath, we have reason te knew, are heartily sick of it. The Republicans paid dearly for thelr whlstle yesterday ; the Democrats ewe their defeat largely te this nse of mouey, from which their own skirts are net entirely free. New is the time te act for Us suppres slen ; It can easily ba done by the co operation of influential men en both sides ; let the work ba begun at once. But, In spite of all these influences, the majority for Uosenmlller could net have been magnified te such figures as mark it, except he received the almost united support of his own party anl Mr. McMullen suffered from treachery in his own. Why the business men, property holders and these of the Repub Jlcan party who prefesi te regard the moral interests of the community.sheulil support Resenmlller Is mere than we can fathom; It may hereafter be dls dls dls closed. We will ba agreeably surprised, and he will have te improve his past reserd, if his administration does net afford them reason te regret their sup pert of him. On the etlier hand, Mr. McMullen was an irrcproacbuble candi date, of tried fitness for the place, and the administration of the office by a mayor of hl3 own party for ever six years had been eminently satisfactory. Why he should be " cut " by any but the mercenary clement of his own party is just as Inexplicable. Here and tliere the selfish metlvai ut local candidates may account for It, but the defection was tee Keneral te be thus explained. Time proves all thlugj, and it may yet disclose who struck Hilly Patterson. Repnhllcnu Mistakes. The Republicans of Lancaster have chosen te put in the ofilce of mayor a man whose antecedents have well esta blished hisentlre unfitness for the honor able discharge nf the responsible duties of the position. The Democratic party in the city stands In a better position with its candidate defeated than does the Republican party with its candidal elected ; and simply because they preseu ted a fit candidate nguinst nn unfit one. Tliey maintain their self-respect in their defeat, confidently knowing that they nominated agoed man for mayor. Tliere can be no feeling of self -reap ct left te the Intelligent Republicans who neinin ated and elected Mr. Resenmlller, will knowing him te unfit for the place. The final result will bu disgrace and disaster te their party. We have said if Mr Resenmlller befere the election n mom than we maintain new, for It ii the truth. He has tee well established his reputation te make it possible that we are mistaken, and te leave any room te hope that his future course will be het tcr than his past. The Republican party shoulders the lespenslblllty for his mayoralty, and it Is sure te find It one grievous te be berne. Tliey have com pany, however, in the Republican party in Philadelphia, which has geno even further against its lights in de featinga man who has demonstrated In the amplest way his ability and dispo sition te give respectability and decency te the city adiuInlBtmtle!,, electing In uis stead ene who has shown the lowest InstUcta and aspirations In his devious course towards the goal which he sought and wen. It is very well, indeed, for the Demo cratic party in these cities, In a party sense, that it lias thoroughly demon strated its decent tendencies in Its decent nominations ; though It Is defeated ; aud It Is bad for the Republican party in Lan caster und Philadelphia that it lias succeeded with men who are beuud te disgrace It, if tliere is anything left te ue disgraced in u party which nominates such men for ofilce with Its eyes open te thelr unfitness. Aud this tlme will show. It Is a pity that the Republican poll ticlans of Philadelphia did net succeed In thelr Bchome of defeating Jehu Hun ter, by polling n large vete for PJene, McMullen and ether ' scattering" can didates for receiver of taxes for whom they cast all the ballets they could con trol, while they pretended te be giving Hunter the support of their regular or ganization. Since they get away with the control of municipal affairs they might as well have had all the responal respenal blll'y nipeu d upei them The best thing for a thief, seraetlmcsv h te give him plenty of rope. Uv. the result of yesterday's election in this city the Republicans obtain full control of the municipal government, with all the responsibilities that this imposes upon the party securing It. The two-thirds majority in select and .com mon councils, with npllable man In tlie executive chair, must be deplored by all who agree with the 2ttc Em that " the best enre Is exercised in the ndmlnlstra tlen of municipal affairs when the exec utive) and legislative departments are In the hands of opposing parties, ns at pro pre sont. They net as n wholesemo check upon each ether." Hut the jobbers who had full sway befere under Republican ruleaud increased tlie city debl $200,- 000 In four years, cau well nfferd te shout. The first step In tlie new ad ministration will be nn Increase of city tax ; the next an Increase of the city debt. Stick n pin there. Tamil: was defeat for the Democrats in the air yesterday. Pittsburg elected a Republican mayor for the first tlme in ten years; Philadelphia turned out of ofilce its Democratic executive ; Reading shows Republican gains, aud in Allen town the Democrats were beaten. The Laucaster Democrats could net well Ret out of the flood tide. Probably we might have done better with a worse candidate. In Soranten Prank Beamish was tri umphantly chosen mayor. The colored troops fought bravely. Tun " vest pecket " vete seems te have miaearricd. Wnnnr. nil did se badly " it would be invidious te partlcularize." Tun vest packet voter had his ct en wrong side out jett enlay. TiiK Republican machine is again en threned in (tower in Philadelphia. The Heed en the Ohie are net u damaging as theso en the Gonestega. " Tiieue was a seuud of revelry by night ;" but we weie net tlie revelers. KErrnurax councils supplemented by a Republican mayor takes away tho"wheIo some check " en the opposition for which the Xeic Era longed a year age.

A UHAZV SON'S UIUMK Ue Attempt te Murder lilt mreutt lr Sheeting Tliein, Middletewn, Conn,, has been thrown into a fever of oxeltomeut evor what may preve te be a double tragedy Ames Williams, n farmer. residing near the Morldeu branch of the turnpike, has a son named William, thirty-slx years of age, who bcoame domented several months age nud was plaoed in au nsylum for the Insane. His Insanity did uet appear te be of a vle lout type, nnd three wceks age his father took him home, although nware of the fact that he had uet fully recovered. The young man couduetod hlmself In a quiet mnnuer nud was net considered dangerous, Tuesday morning while Mrs. Williams was at work iu the kitohen her crazy seu rushed into the room, carrying n dottble barrelled shotgun. "I've ceme te kill jeu mether," he shouted. The terrer strlokeu woman screamed and begged him te pnt the guu down. He answered by pointing the gun at her head and discharging ene of the barrels. The larger part of the charge took olleot in tlie baek of her uoek nud the base of her head. The father heard the screams nnd the report of the gun and hurried Inte the heuse. Taking in the situation at n glance he threw himself upon his son nnd grap pled with him for pofsessien of the gun. Yeung William resisted with unnatural strength, and the father, finding himself worsted, wrenched away nnd ran into the yard. Yeung Williams followed, and bofero his father oeuld reach cover tlred at him, peppering him plentifully with shot in the wrist and forearm. The gun beiug entity the crazed youth could net further iudulge his mania for sheeting and bofero he con Id reload the neighbors arrived and over ever powered him. Mrs. Williams is the most seriously In jured. Prem the back of her head down her neck is frightfully tern and lacerated with shot, but although sovero nud painful her Injuries will net preve fatal.

Although the campaign for mayor was n brief nnd quiet ene It called out the largest vete evor polled In the elty with disastrous results te the Democratic cau. didate. It was found difficult by the Re publicans te get a man te run for mayor nud when finally the nomination was reluctantly conceded te I). P.

His official record was bad nud the uews papers of hla own patty had warued thelr Republican readers against just sueli a nomination ns his was uuiversally roceg. uized te be. At a recent confereuco of the local Hopubliean leadors In this elty, hewever, seme mysterious lutluoneo secured thelr hearty coeporatiou for hla electien ; the A'w AVa, whieh a year age had declared for a mayor aud councils of opposing faith, went baek ou that princi ple ; the Hopubliean business men nnd vest pecket voters, from whom seme iudopend. ence was oxpeotod in municipal matters, almost entirely failed te manifest It, and the Rosenmillor party went te the polls in this city yesterday morning botter organi zed aud mero firmly united thau for many years. Mr. McMullen, the Democratic candi date, teemed te have the hearty support of his party. Thore was noither porsennl nor political objection te him ; he made a diligent and honerablo canvass of the whole city aud shewetl no weakness whnt whnt ever as a candidate Mr. Rosenmillor doveloped ue small dogree of popular streugth among the Demecrats. His long rcsidence iu the city and wide associations served him well Frem the military com pany, of whieh he is captain, from the Friendship fire company, the Blngiug secieties nnd a number of Demecratic saloon keepers he recruited clomeuts of strength. But all of these thiugs had been dis dis ceunted In ndvance and, considering them duly, en the morning of election and throughout the day, the politicians oaten eaten latcd the result te be in doubt, the Dome. crats liaviug the odds lu the bettlug up te 10 a. m. The result, as It happoned, was nearly as mueh of a surprise te the win ners as te the defeatcd party. The rtcnubllcnn Attrnntace. Fer seme years thore has been a vicious practice indulged In by both parties iu Lancaster of paying large poll committees for their services en electien day. At first confined te real workers for the party it has ceme te be se general as te be, iu fact, if net within the letter of the law, a consideration ler the votes of three fourths of theso who are paid this stipend. Ner is it any lenger paid by the party te its own voters, but the price is held out te theso of the ether persuasion te vete the op position ticket. Upen coming te raake out their poll committees this year the Demo Dome Deme crats were surprised te find throughout the city that hundreds of men who had never hesitated bofero te vete without any consideration, insisted upon being " put upeu the poll commlttce," while nearly every doubtful veter inslsted upeu being paid, und the price was unproccdentcdly high. Early in the morning it was seen hat the Republicans wero fiush with money and they wero capturing the float ers regardless of expense. Bummers made $5 bofero breakfast yestcrday who nover made that in a day by honest labor. Against such odds the Democrats strug gled iu vain in every ward. Their little campalgu fund, gathered together for the payment of poll oemmittoes, meltod away beiore the sun had reached the merld Ian. Thence forward the Republicans had it their own way. The prevailing price seemed te be from $5 te $7. In the Secentl ward a scalawag received a $10 bill and two Bland dollars ; in the Ninth several bids of from $7 te $'J a howl are re ported, and from all accounts the vic tory yesterday cost the wlnners as much as the mayor's salary for his two year term. Dospite these outward manifestations the Democrats maintained their hopes even atter the polls had closed and the books wero counted. They estimated that the big Republican wards would uet average evor 100 and that the Eighth had given 450 aud the Seventh nearly 100. Pretty seen the Sixth came in with 102 for Roaenmillor nnd the Fourth with 100. That settled it. The Second. Fifth and Ninth euly aggravated it. The First was no disappointment te the Democrats and the Third did no worse than was oxpeotod. But when the Seventh turned up with only 10 for MeMuIIen and the Eighth with only 350, indignation and voxatleu struggled for the mastery In the Deme cratie heart ; the commlttce rooms wero promptly deserted, the lights put out and the boys went home by the dark streets or hid thomselvos under umbrellas te escape observation from the jubilant Republicans parading the stroets and serenading Resen, miller with a brass band. Heme l'eiltlcl l'elati. Fred Brimmer compelled Soleot Ceuu cilman Robt. A. Evans te make "the greatest effort of his life." The Demo cratic neminee get a geed many Republi can stickers, but Evans drew largely from the Democratic side and was au easy winner. It vrniilil Imvn linnn mnrn in thn nrnillti nt Iho Seventh wnrd Domeorats If Mr. Me- Mullen's majority had been brought up nearer te the figures of seme of the wnrd candidates. It is Bald that, by virtue of a bargain made last week nnd iu consideration of MoMeIlen letting up, Joel L. Haines is te be chief of police If Jimmy Doeblor does net get the np peintment of lockup koepor, republics are ungrateful and he will make Rome howl. TIIK OtrFIUIAI, ItETUKNH.
