HAVE HIGH POWERS TO ENFORCE LAWS Against Illicit Sales and Storing of Intoxicating Liquors SHERIFF AND CONSTABLES As Nell as the Mayors and Mag istrates Have Powers Which are Set Forth in Opinion As tho sheriff and his deputies have been active during tho last few month in trying to suppress the blindtigers, it is interesting to know just what powers Iho officers have in supressing this traffic. Powers of the sheriffs in enforcing the State laws regulating the sale of whiskey were outlined in an opinion given out Wednesday by Attorney General Peoples in reply to a request from Sheriff It. G. Causev of Berke-j ley county. The attorney general stated "in my opinion, it is the duty of the sheriff as well as "their deputies, magistrates constables, rural police and city and and town officials" to see that the law is enforced in incorporated towns just as much as in any other portion of his i county." In this manner, the sheriff's question "whose duty is it to enforce the dispensary law in incorporated towns" was answered. It was made plain in the opinion that 'any constable, deputy constable, magistrate or sheriff who shall neglect or refuse to perform all duties required under the dispensary law shall ' be subject to suspension by the gov- ; ernor." 1 Law was cited in the opinion which ' the attorney general construed to 1 mean "that any person detected in the i act of violating any of the provisions 1 of the dispensary law shall be liable \ to arrest without warrant, provided a . warrant shall be procured within a ] reasonable time thereafter." I Explaining further when the sheriff , would have authority to arrest without a warrant, tho attorney general stated "you understand the general rule of law that peace officers have ' the right to arrest any person for the commission of a felony without a war 1 l'nnf ntul olc/x o ?nr iiai.p/... '>" " v. uii^ |ivi ovii v. ytm i ll l L LI 11J^ a misdeameanor in his presence with- ' out a warrant." ' Replying to the question of Sheriff Causey, the attorney general stated in the opinion: "1 will say that, in my opinion, a search wararit should he oh ; tained for the search of contraband i liquors in all cases except the exceptions noted herein." In this connection, the sheriff was referred to Section 10. Article IX of the State constitution cf 189"), and Sections 825 ant 830 of tuc criminal code of 1012. UNIVERSITY NOTES. Columbia, S.

All last week the matter was being discussed by the leading men and interests inall of the leading men and interests in all of the old world and the new. The Norwegian steamer, Regin, coal laden; the American steamer Carib, with a cargo of cotton aboard, and the British Collier Branksome, Chine have fell viteims of mines or torpef aiihmnvi'noc in tlin vrnf-nvc of the war zone. The Re gin went j down near Dover; the Caribb off the German coast in the North sea. The Branksome Chine was struck in the English channel off Beachy Head and reported still afloat. A large steamer was reported in; distress where the Branksome Chine! was struck, but it has not been ascertained what brought her to grief. The cross channel steamer Victoria, Boulogne for Folkestone, w ith nearly 1Q0 passengers aboard, narrowly escaped destruction by a German submarine. The French minister of marine said a destroyer shelled the submarine and possibly sank her.

These proposals have been guarded with great secrecy. The British admiralty has placed stringent restrictions on merchant vessels with respect to the Irish channel and the North channel, through which these vessels may not pass except at certain hours and then only | by following a specified course. Seven German aeroplanes were re- j ported flying along the east coast of England early Tuesday night. They are thought to have been on a re-! connoitering expedition. Much interest attaches to the bombardment bv the French and British warships of the forts in the Dardan-1 cllcs, soivm of which are said to have boon badly damaged. Reports from the battle fronts are meagre. The Gorman victory in East Prussia is admitted by the Russians who. however, have brought up large "ei'Torcomontr and oxprc ' ; confidence . in their ability to prevent a further Gcma a Ivance.

TEN WEEKS IN BEFEMINENT PHYSICIANS FAILEDWONDERFUL RECOVERY I wish to inform you of the great benefits I have derived from the use of Swamp-Hoot. 1 had been a sufferer for more than twenty years from kidney and liver trouble anil was almost constantly treated by the most eminent physicians who could only give me temporary relief. I had been in bed ten weeks when I began the use of Swamp-Root. Inside of twenty four hours I could see that I had been greatly benefitted. I continued to use Swamp-Root until 1 had used several bottles when I really felt that my old trouble was completely cured and 1 am positive that any person suffering with kidney or liver trouble can be cured by the use of this preparation. I am now in the best of hcaith, better than I have been for ten ^ears or more. 1 do not know how to express myself as strongly as 1 desire, in favor of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, as 1 am sure that it saved my life and that my good health, is due entirely to this great remedy. I heartily recommend it to every suffered and am confident they can be benefitted as I have been. It is a pleasure for me, gentlemen, lo hand you this recommendation. IMRS. H. J.

Paris, (via London), Wb. 28.?A French cruiser has arrested the Amer ican steamer Dacia in the channel and taken her to Brest. This announcement is officially made. Announcement of the capture of the Dacia which was issued by the marine department, gave no details nor the name of the cruiser which took her under arrest. The steamship Dacia left Galveston for Rotterdam on January 31 with 11,000 bales of cotton to be transship ped to Bremen. It was expected that Britain questioned the validity of her she would be seized because Great transfer from German to American registry. She touched at Norfolk on February 11, then proceeded. The Dacia formerly was a Hamburg-American freight steamship in trade between Bremen and gulf ports. At the outbreak of hostilities she was tied up at Port Arthur. On December 26 she was purchased by an American and on January 4 American registry was obtained. It then was announced that she was to be used to move cotton and loading was begun with a cargo to be taken to Rotterdam and then shipped to Bremen. Representations were made immediately by the British embassy at Washington, questioning the validity of the transfer, and it was generally understood that if the ship sailed she would be seized by British or French warships and taken before a prize court. America Will Await Prize Court Decision. Washington, Feb. 27.?While no official word had reached the state department tonight on the seizure of the American steamer Dacia, it is known that no protest by the American government is probable until a French prize court passes on the ship's status. This has been the general policy in all similar cases. The Dacia formerly was German owned but was purchased by an American who was said to have fur-1 nished United States officials and the British embassy here with proofs tending to show that the transfer was made in good faith and that the former owners retained no interests in the vessel or agreement for her retransfer at the close of the war. The voyage of the Dacia has been regarded as a test case upon which final decision as to the right of neutrals to purchase vessels from citizens of belligerent countries might be based IXicia's Cargo Policies Held in Columbia. The 11,000 bales of cotton aboard the steamship Dacia, Galveston to Rotterdam, which is reported to have been seized in tlie English channel yesterday by a French warship and taken into Brest, were insured by Edwin G. Seibels, Manager, Inc., of Columbia, in the sum of $770,000. Edwin G. Seibels said last night that if the vessel had been enntured. as reported, his agency would be relieved of its liability, the risk in that event falling* on the government war risk bureau. He said he would be very willing to see the load transferred, because the l'ne lie v.as cairying on the cargo was a trifle to heavy to be comfortable and diVseulty had beer .' and in. \) " c ..big reinsurance. Edward F. Breitung of St. Louis is the owner of the Dacia. Mr. Scibelr said last night thac 1 o understood tin vessel had cost him about $ 1 b0,()00, and that he stood to collect in freights on her present voyage alone upwards of $100,000. The cargo is the property of Tom !>. Owens & Co. of i oi t Worth, Texas. That conci i n, Mr. S( ibcls said, has a large stake in the venture and has already incurred extraordinary expenses, including $10,000 to $12,000 in demurrage. The Dacia's destination when si e ; left Galveston was Bremen. After she reached Norfolk she was put under orders for Rotterdam and in consequence the treasury department eon scntcd to write a war risk policy on 1 nor. i j | ATTENTION ; j Mr. Stock Owner! !
