Tho Battle OF 1880.

The Hon. DON NJ. DICKINSON OF Michigan
has discussed tho election Of last week with
the result Of putting this pregnant fact with
fitting directness and simplicity:
I'm the last Congress the Force bill had grsst deal
- do with the vote on silver"
The Force bill was the supreme political
issue OF 1880. There was not Democrat
with an understanding OF his party. and
honest In devotion to his professions. who
would not readily have thrown over for
sacrifice every other idea and issue for the
sake Of defeating the Force bill. Before
such monstrous prospect as that Repub-
Mcan scheme presented no honorable DEM
ocrat could have hinched from coming to
the front, at the risk Of any conceivable
advantage or convenience. and fight the
party fight Nothing could have stayed the
sincere patriot from applying every re-
source and every device to the defeat of the
Republicans. and. consequently. after the
long. wearying. and dismaying struggle
from which the Democrats under the lead Of
Senator GoRMAN finally emerged triumph
ant. there appeared one fact soincomparably
greater than all others connected with the
contest as to be alone worth considering.
The Democrats won.
The Force bill was beaten, at least for the
time being. More than one Democratic
statesman warns the country that it still Is
in the air. The fight against the organiza-
ton behind it must not stop or change In
character or determination.

Mr.. Fassett Libels His Party.

The Hon. JACOB SLoAT FAssETT distin-
guished himself In the late canvass by
hbelling the city Of New York. He is dis
tinguishing himself since the election by
libelling his own party. He Is reported in
the Evening Post as using this language:
81 charge that the election was virtually bought with
money used BY Tammany. They had 20 much that they
lid not know what to do with It They went still

to remain away from the polls. have the most inds
putsble proof OF IT,"
Mr.. FAssRrr charges. in other words. that
forty-fve or six thousand members OF his
own party were bribed. and he says that
he has the most indisputable" proofs Of
1t. OF course the charge Is 30 patiently alb
surd that 1t would not be worth while to ask
him for proofs. 1t Is simply another proof
OF the speakers lightness Of head and un-
trustworthiness Of assertion. Frantic with
defeat. he furnishes supplementary evidence
Of Its righteousness.
Mr.. FAssRTT's latest libel IL something
that he must settle with his party. II he
thinks that the rural Republicans will be
more inclined to encourage his political
ambition now that he has accused them Of
dishonesty. that is his business and theirs.
The interest Of the rest Of tho public in the
matter is found in the evidence 1t affords
that Mr.. FAssErr lie as rash. foolish. fiimsy.
and undlgnifed since the election as he
was before 1t.
