b-ors to a clear pereeption of the e.
tion and 'te have no such fond hop.
Wo are well aware that the aenti
ments as expressed in the editorial of
The Chionvele are very popular in
itnt-n Pni have aelwaty been opulnr
,n me quartere, tho'rh It has re
mained for The Chron:c'le, ordinarily
very circnmnpect in ite columns, urgod
on no doubt by disappointed fellow cit
izens, to e:Cress thema in ouch plain
"unvarnished" language. So, for the
sake of argument and "'ith absolute
innocence of any Intention to change
the views of our fellow tarpayers in
Clinton as regards TAurens voters, we
tehall give a little space to a few re
marks on the election.
In the fircit place, Laureus -does not
need to make an orplanatida of its
vote. 'The Advertiser saw fit to en
dlorse both project~s before the election,
but some 122 free and untrammelled
Laurens democrats refused to take or
dlersc from its and voted as their eon
seig'ncos no doubt dictated against the
Mubsgrove project. It is a plausible
theory at least that they thought that
undinished jobs abould be completed
or 'rprovided for before new ones are
begun. It is posalible that these 123
yeo>men were influenced in their bal
lots by baso motives of pcrejudie
against Clinton. We have no doutbt
but' that, in theit p-asent fracvo 'a
mind our Clinton friends believe that
the whole outfit voted on these
grounds. We won't say that they
didn't, 'but knowing a fow of them and
what they have done for Clinton we
(10 not believe they did.
Tbe Chronicle, before drwineg a
comparison between the Musgrove and
(}winlgs projoets as they relate to 'lau
rena, might observe from the map
i~hat considerations of self-interest
would have prompted us in Iau
rens to have voted against the Ow
ings project also. This projct, a will
be observed, gives Owings and Gray
Court as 'well as the buying public of
Laurens a diroct top-soil connection.
to Fountain Inn and Greenville. where
as had we voted against this iprojoct
and killed this roadi we would have
had the upper towns of the county
connected with us by good r'ends and
cutt off from G'reenville by the had sec..
tion 'between Owings and Fountain
Inn.
Now, let's consider a few of the
precinct votes. Tt Is charged by 'lhe
Chronicle that the largest vote treg
iatered against the "Clinton" pond, as
the Chronicle calls it. w'as cast in
