McDttFFfE COUNTY,.

The State Board of Canvassers on
Thursday. last reversed the Green
wood Board in declaring illegal the
election for the formation of McDuf-
fie county. The matter will likely
|go to the Supreme Court and the le-
gality of the election in which many
qualified electors, residing within
the territory of the proposed new
county were denied the right to vote,
will be there determined. Pending
the decision of the Court no opinion
should be expressed as to the result.
If the friends of the new county
have in all respects complied with
the law, and the Court shall decree
the election valid, the county should
be established. 1t is equally true
that if the statutory and constitu-
tional requirements have not been
compiled with, the county should
not be established. Those claiming
to know, state, upon the authority of
a surveyor who has once surveyed
the counGy, that if McDuffie county
is established, Abbeville county will
have less than five hundred square
miles, the constitutional minimum
for old counties. The people in 9TH
er parts of the county who will be
left with the bag to hold, have a
right to ask that this matter be de-
termined. The Supervisor of this
county should at once have survey
made to determine it. If he does
not feel called upon to act in the
matter tie delegation in the General
Assembly should by proper resolu-
tion require such survey.
