Comments On "moses."

The Eepublicans of this Congressional district yesterday renominated Moses W. Field for Congress. Many of them would no doubt have liked wonderfully well to shake off the grasp of that gentleman, but he had too secure a hold upon " the party " to make any such an undertaking successful. Mr. Field's renomination demonstrates two facts : First that the Republican party in this district does not care a straw how absurd or unsound a Congressional candidate's financial views are, provided implicit confidence can be placed in his partisanship, and provided, further, that he will bleed l'reely for the " cause." That no objection can be made to Mr. Field on the score of partisanship we are willing to concede. So far as in him lies he can be depended upon to do everything possible to advance the interests of the office holders - and this constitutes the grand test of partisanship. Of the manner in which he fulfills the second requisito the last campaign furnished eubstantial proof. In the second place Mr. Field's candidacy shows how trivial an ofíense in the eyes of the Eepublican partry of Wayne County it is to deprive a soldier of his bounty money, and how little it cares what the thousands of Wayne County volunteers think of the matter. That Mr. Field was guilty of the offense with which he was charged during the campaign two years since, but which was then decried by his partisans, is shownby thejudgment of the arbitrators in the case, a majority of whom were Eepublicans. While the brave soldiers were risking their lives in defense of the Union, Mr. Field, who now appears in the attitude of a suppliant for their votes, was engaged in the despicable business of depriving one of their number of money to which he was justly entitled. But the Eepublicans think this is of no consequence - that they can cram Field down the throats of Eepublican soldiers. How do the hard money Republicana of Wayne County like their gressional candidate? How do the safe, steady-going, conservativo, business men of Detroit, almost to a man in favor of honest money, like the man the Eepublicans have set up for Congress ? Will they stultify themselves by voting for him at election ? Will they not rather do their part toward relieving the district of a RepresentatiTe whose rag money, introconvertible bond theories are so utterly at variance with the doctrines they hold ? And how do the soldiers like the Republican candidate ? Will they swallow Viim, contaminated as he is ? Will they not rather contemptuously spew hina out of their mouths as a man undeberving of their respect, much less of their support? We shall be much mistaken if this will not be the treatment he will receive in many cases ; and we shall be disappointed if the people of this Congressional district indorse an inflationist of the stamp of Moses W. Field.-
