BANRYS RITZ.

Gen. Hamby's bill to change the time
for holding state elections is worthy seri-
Gus. consideration The date fixed may
or may not be the best, but that can be
ascertained by discussion. The popular
feeling with the dominant party is in
at which congressman are chosen, and
the probability of such supervision is suf-
ficiently strong to justify consideration of
a measure designed to relieve state
elections of such obnoxious in
spection to which they would unavoida-
bly, be subjected if held, as now
contemporaneously with congressional
elections. If the predominant Republi-
can sentiment is read Alright by THE GA
ZETTE it is this:
Let the South govern itself in its local
affairs as it will, but do not let it govern
the nation as an incident of its local self
government.
THE GAZETTE states case without dis
cussing it, and it is the province of wis
dom to deal with situations as they are,
and not as we may desire to have them,
or think they ought to be. The
Republicans believe they would be
stronger in congress if all Repub-
licans were permitted to vote; the Re-
publicans are in power; the Republicans
clamor for Federal supervision of con-
gressional elections, and the question is,

pervision of state rs well ms national cleo

THE IRON rs HOT.

a little of the old time unity of Fort
Worth, little of the old time liberality
and little of the old-time foresight at
this juncture would provide more work
for mechanics, attract more capital, still
further swell the population, increase the
a boom that would land it far
ahead of all Texas cities. Never
was there a more suspicious season for a
long pull, strong pull, and a pull all
together for the common veal. Adver-
tisements for contracts for the building of
the big Union stock yards are be-
ing prepared, work on the Fort
Worth and Albuquerque railroad
will soon begin, plans for some
of the most stately business struct-
ures are in the hands Of architects, there
is not in the whole city house for rent
large enough to accommodate family of
six persons; within a few months ten,
perhaps fifteen miles of electric railway
will be in operation, and now if the city
would invite the whole country to come
here in June and see at a glance
the vast capabilities of this immense
state, Fort Worth would have through
out the Union tens of thousands of self
appointed missionaries preaching its adj
vantages to home-seekers and capital. 1t
does seem to THE GAZETTE that every

accord to make this Texas Spring Palace
a success. 1t is fitting supplement to all
the agencies at work in their behalf, and
affords an opportunity seldom presented

4 PARTTSAN REPORT.


The majority report of the senate COM
mittee on privileges and elections with
respect to the Washington county (Texas)
election troubles is so grossly partisan as
to betray its inspiration on its face. The
report in effect declares that the evidence
of the men who preferred the charges is
true in its entirety and that the evidence
of the opposing witnesses is wholly false.
If Mr.. Chandler or MIR. Hoar had
presided over the committee, such
a finding would have been
expected, for with these TWO worthless,
the only question that arises in a matter
of this sort is, What viii best subserve
party interests? The position that Mr..
Evarts assumes, however, is that of a
lawyer, rather than a rabid and
INSCRIPTIONS partisan, and that he
should lend his name to paper SO pal
pable malignant as the report published
in yesterdays GAZETTE is a striking COM
mentary upon the force of party pres
sure upon even moderate and conserva-
tive men.
The truth of the Washington county
affair, as evidenced by the oaths of some
OF the best men within its borders. was
that the county was plundered for years
by a gang of thieves, which, operating
in the name of Republicanism was sus-
tanned by the eredulous and ignorant
blacks The treasurer defaulted for
large sum and left the affairs of the
county in such . condition that the tax
