A Card from .Mr. McGovtun.
Editor The Advertiser:
i wish to make a statement in re
gnrd to the confusion and mistakes
? hat have occurred in the names and
locations of tin- voting precincts for
tin* county of Laurens.
In 1900. by virtue oi a petition (hat
was forwarded to me by C. a. Power,
signed by a number of citizens in the
upper part of Hie county, l Introduced
into the Senate a hill which became
a law. with the following precincts:
Laurens Court house. Laurens Cotton
Mills, UeilUO, Langston's church. Ora.
Pleasant Mound. Voting's store, Stew
act's Store, Power, Cray Court. Dial's
Church, Sbiloh, Woodville, 'rumbling
Shoals, Brewerton, Daniel's Store.
Tip Top. Mount Pleasant. Cross Hill.
Moiintville, HopewelL Waterloo.
Lkoin. Clinton Cotton .Mills, Clinton.
Princeton, Watts .Mills, and Cook's
Store.
In 1907, a bill was introduced into
the house by the committee on privi
leges and elections, which came to the
Senate and was referred to the com
mittee on privileges and elections. I
recollect telling some member that
Laurens wanted no change In the
election products, and thai I wanted
the law to stand as I llxed it in 1906.
Now the Solicitor who dialled the bill.
Instead of looking at the Act of 1906
or Laurens. look the code of 1902 and
copied the names verbatim from that
volume, with the words added as fol
lows: "at T. T. Woods" after Brewor
lon ami Lauford Station and Clold
Vllle" at the end of the section.
When the bill was read the second
lime in the Senate, my attention was
not directed to the change mndo in
my bill of 1906. If my attention had
been directed to the Change, I would
have made the bill conform to my bill
of October, lime. it is possible that
I was not in the Senate chamber when
(he hill was passed. The mistake oc
curred in the committee on privileges
and elections by copying the wrong
Act for Laurens. The Solicitor drew
all ihe hills and "O. K." them before
they can be Introduced into either
house, and the Solicitor who drew this
bill certainly overlooked the late Act
on Ihe subject. I am sorry that the
mistake, confusion and inconvenience
(o Ihe people ha\e occurred, but I am
sure I ought not to be blamed for it.
lb" journals of the Senate show that
the Act of 1906 was my work, when I
put in Princeton, Stewart's Store.'
Cook's Store. ItenilO and Walts Mills,
and Clinton Cotton Mills.
In the Act of 1907, Princeton is left
out entirely; Cook's and Stewart's
Stores are left out and Parson's Store
inserted with Ihe addition of LaIIford
Station and Goldvillc. I thought it
proper to make this explanation as I
had been criticised for Hie mistake.
Yours truly.
F. P. MoClowan.
I he San .lose Scale.
The San Jose (San Ho/ay? scale is
the most pernicious insect pest ot
fruit ami shade trees in South Caro
lina. In some sections the ownert
of the trees are culling III ein down
owing to the presence of this insect,
ihe division of entomology of the
South Carolina experiment station
has repeatedly emphasized the fact
In the press that there is no necessity
for cutting down or otherwise d,
stroylng a tree merely because it I?
infested with the San Jose scale un
less ihe tree is so far gone thai ii has
not enough vitality left to recover nf
ler the scale is killed. Although one
of the worst Insects in America, ii
has been demonstrated over and ovoi
again (hat the pest can be successful
ly ami economically controlled. Pr?ll
growers all over the Culled Slates
who are troubled with this pest are
controlling it by the sprays devised
for that purpose. All citizens o,
South Carolina, who have trees dylnj
or who know thai their trees are in
tested with scale, or who have tree!
in an unthrifty condition are invited
lo write to ihe division of ciltomol
ogy, South Carolina experiment stn
