Columbia?All South Carolina. constables,
Including special officers em- 1
ployed by railroads and other carriers
and all commissioners of &eds tor j
South Carolina .have been removed }
by Gov. Cole 1>. Blease, according to
announcements .contained in proclamatiens
sent out 'recently.
The two proclamations announce
that the governor, by virtue of the
constitution power lodged in his ,
hands, revokes the commissions of ,
all the officers mentioned. The com- (
misaioners are Invited to apply lor (
new .com missions; nothing is said to (
the holders .of constables' oommis- (
sions. s
The revocation of the .commissions, ,
the governor announces, is to date ^
from January 21st, next. ' ,
The governor in his proclamation (
revoking the commissions of all con (
stable* gives no reason for the (
change. He merely states that he as
.governor, has decided to revoke their (
commissions, and forthvdth does so. ,
The reason given ror the removal ,
commissioners of deeds, who J
lorni a considerable gprtUm? pf
commercial-legal machinery of the j
state, is that many of them hare lost
their commissions, and that others (
have not carried out their duties in ,
-a manner satisfactory to those do? j
ing business with them. The com- (
missicncrs of deeds are possibly the ,
most numerous class with which the ,
governor has yet taken action. They
nro rnciHonta of fnrelen countries whc
have taken out commissions and whc |
perform legal services, such as reg
istering deeds, for property in South
Carolina.
The governor announces that any
who may wish reappointment may
secure commissions on the endorse
ment of the governor of the state or
the American consul of the foreign
country, where they live.
