FOB NEW COUNTY Citizens of Horry Petition Governor to order Election The State. | Governor Cooper has receive^] a petition fro mHorry county, signed by a number of electors, asking the governor to order an election on the proposal to create a new county out of a portion of Horry with Lorir. as the county seat. The governor has taken no actio nas yet, but will consider the petition. 1 It seems that a large number of citizens are anxious to have the new county, which would be called Der. ham county,but at the same time it 1 is believed a hard fight will be necessary to carry the election, in I case one is ordered. Another angle in the case has developed in the aesire or Floyds town-1 ship to annex with Marion county and the stilj opposition of Conway to the proposal. I o- / MESSAGE FROM GRAVE Missing Document of Value at Last Found in Frosen Fields of Alaska. Regina, Sask.?Soaked by rains, buried beneath the snows blown about the praUies by the winds of 35 years, a document which settles a point that history leaves in doubt has just been foun4 near Regina. It is an affidavit sworn to by Corpl. Hugh J. A. Davidson, of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police, and affirms that the first shot of Louis Reil's second rebellion in 1885 was fired by his half-breed followers. Some writers have contended that the whites precipitated the conflict that drenched western Canada in blood. , .The first battle of the war was fought at Duck Lake, a village near the North Saskatchewan river at the northern limit of the lands which were left by Canada to the Hudson Bay Company in 1870 and are now being closed out^to farm settlers. Major Crozier, in command of 80 settlers and Northwest Mounted Police, fell in near ^he little settlement with a greatly superior force of rebels. While a parley was being held between the leaders firing began. The fight lasted an hour. The half-breeds tied on their horses, carrying away seven wounded, but leaving twelve dead on the field. Reil's victory caused the Indians to join the insurrection, but it also sminHeH its nwn death knell. The settlers rose in defense of their homes, troops hurried from the east find the rebellion was crushed. Riel was hanged at Regina. i Speaking like a voice from the grave, Corporal Davidson swears in his affidavit that the first shot cume from one of Reil's half breeds crouching in the wolf willows and whistled past his head. "Until Major Crozier gave the order," he says, "no shot was fired by any of our party/' \ The weather-beaten old affidavit was sworn to before Stephen Brewster, a notary public at Pfince Alberta, May 30, 1885. Despite wind and weather, it 4s supposed, it was lost at Prince Albert, it had traveled 250 miles when its wind-blown journeyings ended at Regina. u I CONTRIBUTED O.VLl' AN 1 AVERAGE OF 10 CENTS EACH Tj the Democrats of South Carolina: r The date of the general election is very near.

Wannamaker recently sent out inquiries to states that have been visited by the boll weevil asking the general effects on the prosperity -of those states of the visitation of the weevil. Mr. Wannamaker says that the replies which he has received are to the effect that'In most instances the weevil has proved a blessing in disguise. It has been followed by crop diversification. Following is a letter from P. L. Downs, chairman Agricultural Committee: I Temple, Tex., Sept. 17, 1920. Mr. J. S. Wannamaker, President, ' American Cotton Association, St. | Matthews, S. C. Dear Mr. Wannamaker: Replying to your Inquiry of the! 10th with reference to the depreda-! tion of the boll weevil in your cotton' section, I beg to say that I can fully realize the posiiton of your people and understand their problems, be-J ?? ? Lmmmm ill I tttUBO W Q littTC UCCU All VUiVU^U A similar condition. ! Quite a number of years ago. I happened to be traveling in Mexico,' making an extended trip over that republic. Seeing the awful devastation wrought in that country by the boll weevil, I became very much interested in the situation. Upon my return home, I submitted to in-' terview, and wrote direct articles to the various farm papers and most promient daily papers in the state*1 urging that the state and national j authorities should take every precaution possible to keep the pests from eoming across the Rio trrande river, ' emphasizing the fact that when once they crossed the Rio' Grande the cotton crop of the entire religion would be subjected, soon or1 late, to the devastating pests. No attention, apparently, was paid to the matter, at least, the subject matter was regarded too lightly, or the expected depredation too remote to admit of any worrying on the part of those who should have been interested. Subsequently, just as I expected,' reports came in from the lower counties in Texas, tributary to the Rio Grande, that the boll weevil was depredating in those countries. I again urged the farmers in those sections, through the public prints, to take every precaution possible in the matter of poisoning, or cultural methods to protect themselves, and stamp out the weevil, and prevent them from going further east and north, and urged the prominent papers of southern Texas to give all possible publicity to the necessity of stamping them out as promptly, and as completely as possible. I felt sure that they would gradually spread until their work of destruction had covered the entire cotton belt. The farmers did not look upon them with any dread, and consequently took no action whatever toward, combating the pest. Each year the insects would cover a few more counties, continuing to come further east and north, until all of south, and lower central Texas, and east Texas was covered, when they crossed the Red river and got into Louisiana. _ Col. Marsten of the latter state bame over to see me and spent several days with me, looking into the matter or tne destruction, or yievention, of devastation by these in. sects, and the best means of destroying them. He returned home, and inaugurated vigorous efforts toward poisoning them, and made an intensive campaign toward combatting the spread of the pests, urging the co-operation of the national government imhis endeavors. He sent me numerous articles contributed to the various journals in that state, and otherwise indicating his earnest efforts directed along these lines. After the insects had invaded Louisiana, Mississippi and tributary! sections there was a lull in their de-' vastating work in this 'state. Per-, sonally, I never did lose sight of the fact that they were here, and were I itEin ( TO COLUMBIA, !

During the lapse ( of years since they first entered Texai \ I there hare been periods when they t have given us little concern. During t the years of severe drouth when the \ hot suns, and the long, dry days and t nights have prevailed, they have not multiplied so numerously, and t have not bqen so effective in their 1 disastrous results; but during the d wet years, and when the conditions have been favorable for their multi- a plication and for their devastating a work, they have wrought havoc, and s have continued their destructive i work. t I think they are here to stay now, i; and I believe that the average j farmer in this country, who expects li to contlnne his farming operations for a livelihood, should equip himself a with the Implements necessary t< p their destruction, just as naturally t as he provides the implements neces* s sary to the proper cultivation of his c crops. " v In Sovf\ Texas, where farming is t conducted >Ny certain parties on a n big scale, *.y go into the crop year with their testers, and their poison * ?? now ?f their crop work, and crop o expenditure, and the records showjs that these people always make a d good crop of cotton; but where they e do not poison they fail to make it. s The farmer is loath to undertake Any c effort or expense unless he IS com- v pelled to do so. He waits until the o last minute in the hope of being able $ to save that expense and effort. Even t< when the weevil appears, he fancies p that his cotton is going to pull tl through without assuming that ex- t< pense, and almost before he realiezs tl it, the insects have partially, or com- c pletely, destroyed his crop. p In the later part of July 1 made u a trip over east Texas and South h Texas, to make an official visit and e inspection of the various agricul- y turai experiment stations, over there, o being president of the Governing b Board of the Texas Agricltural Ex- tl periruent Stations. I had previously, fl in June, visited some of the west a Texas Experiment Stations. I never a saw such a magnificent prospect for a an abundant crop in all my resi- n dence in Texas at that partioular b time, in every section visited the o cotton fields appeared to be one c continuous bloom, the stalks being f, loaded down with squares and n blooms, and continually putting on e as abundantly as the stalk could otnnri Everybody was jubilant over the prospects that Texas was going to make the most tremendous crop in her history. Within the last thirty GAL TWO days the crop in this immediate section has deteriorated at least twentyfive per cent, and possibly more, and reports from other sections confirm * this conclusion. At some points the crop has been completely destroyed, while in other sections the crop was so far advanced and the bolls sufficiently matured to prevent such " serious inroads by the pests. 1 The only salvation for the cotton farmer, in my opinion, is to get his cotton planted as early as possibly, and to matrity at the earliest pos. sible moment, before the insects can _ become sufficiently numerous to resi- y ously attack it. Some will contend that the weevil cannot b^. subdued by poison; but the results of the activities at the Experiment Station at _ College Station, ind in other sections ^ where the work has been intelligently directed, conclusively proves that the work of destruction can be prevented through such poisoning. At the Experiment Station of the A. & M.
