After hearing the petition for ii junction, and affidavits in support thereof. the deinur er to the petition and argument of eainsel thereon, the court is of the opinion that the peti tioners have a plain and adegnate remedy at law. and that no property rights are involved jnstifying the interference of ths <-:urt with the election by injunction.

The Argument. Mr. Cannon opened the argument for the petitioners and made a strong presentation of his case. He took he position that the supervisor had erformed his only duty in the mat r of the election, and that there was thing further for that official to do, nee he should not be a. party to the se. In regard to the registration w he held that the constitution )f 95 provides for re-enrolment every years of all electors, that by an et of 1896 there was a re-enrolment in 1896. and that in the present ya': there has been a reenrolment. there fore there was a period of twveve years to elapse between the eaui ments instead of ten years, as requir ed, and that between 1906 and 1908 there were no legal electors in this State at all, the .tition in qucsti'1 having been filed with the supervis or prior to May, 1908, which -was prior to the reenrolment of th; year. In regard to the matter of the num ber of electors on the books, he held that under the laiw only the super visors of registration have the right to purge the books. Mr. Cannon an nounced that they were ready to take itestmony, either before the court or by reference, in regard to the num ber of electors on the p.e''t'on for an election and in regard to ihe- number in the county. He stated that the Spetitioners would abandon p aragraph 9 of the petition. Col. Ferguso:: read an arpument bearing strietly on the legal pont involved. holding that th3 peritnoners had an adequate remedy at law and should protest before the county board. of canvassers. H3 cited the decision of this court in the c-ase of the Calhoun county election, when the court declined to grant an in.june tion against the holding of the elec ilon. One of the cases cited by Mr. Coop er was that in which the supreme court of the United States overraled Judge Goff, Federal judge, who sought to restrain the holding of an election for the constitutional conven tion in this -State in 1894. Senator Blease. of Newberry. elos ed the argument. The principal p>uint made by Mr. Blease was that if the court had no powver to review the a tion of the supervisor. the supervisor might order an election on a petition containing an insufficent number of names or on no petir')n at all. There were a number of citizens of Laurens here for the heavinz of the case before the supreme court. Elation in La.urens. Laurenis.
