The Result to Date.

THE GAZETTE has reports from six
ty.one counties in the state that have
held conventions up to date, and the
expressions made by them may be ac-
cepted as an index of the drift of po-
litical sentiment in the state. While
many of the counties selected delegates
only to the Fort Worth convention to
send delegates to the Democratic ma
tional convention, not few of them
chose delegates to the state conven-
ton at Houston as well. Such as linn
tied their action to the choice of dele
gates to Fort Worth gave no express
sion upon questions of state concern,
very properly deferring such action to
the time when they shall meet in re-
Spouse to call to select delegates to
the Houston convention. So far as
ascertained, the instructions given are
as follows:

in the boom. 1t often happens that
we thus secure fellow citizen and fell
low-worker who is a Republican but
his money passes current for land and
goods just the same as Democrats,
and his enterprise helps to build up
Fort Worth just as If he had been
rocked in hickory cradle. No; we
can't help the circulation and the
popularity of THE GAZETTE. And. all
in the interest of Fort Worth, we
thank the prominent Republicans for
their praise and bid them welcome to
our circulation. 1t is the glory of Fort
Worth that it has no hide-bound parti-
sans to indorse the criticism of papers
like the Messenger.

A Needed Measure DELAYED.

The recent vote in the house of rep
resentatives, declining to fix June 10
as day for consideration of the Low
ell bankruptcy bill, does not wear a
promising aspect for the fate of that
measure, this session of congress, at
least. The question, purely one of
business, was lugged into the arena of
politics by spread-eagle speeches on
the part of several members, deprecat-
ing any action until the presidential
contest is over. The business inter
ests of the country, centering at New
York, made an earnest effort in behalf
of the bill, but to no avail, for it could
not command a two-thirds vote, foI
consideration, as required by the rules
of the house. That it is popular, was
shown by the vote, 1877 yeas to consider
to lib nays. This was a respectable
majority. 1t is gratifying to note that
Congressman Culberson of Texas was
among those who struggled manfully
to bring the bill up. Mr.. Culbersor
appreciates, as does every other sensi
BILE business man in Texas, that ma
tional bankrupt law is commercial
necessity, demanded and approved by
the business interests of the country
We think time will show the fallac,
of the action of the minority in stav
ing off, for another year, sound ant
practical measure of relief. With the
country strewn from Maine to Cali
fornia with the wrecks of bushes
ventures; with energy and capita
locked up awaiting an outlet
would seem that arguments wer
plentiful enough for prompt and eflici
ciors action. If, as now seems probs
BILE, the bill is indefinitely postponed
the delay can be traced, plainl,
enough, TO the pernicious interference
OF politicians, who never hesitate t
subordinate business and all othe
practical interests to the demands
politics. The responsibility, it may /
> remarked. is pretty evenly divide
