Many local appointments arc to be made dur.or tho coming session of tho legislature, and members of the Anderson County delegation say that tho number of men applying for tho various Joba is large enough to turn tho tide of battle In the European \ war if all the applicants could be mustered Into service and would dis play the same aggressiveness they are showing in charging the pie counter. Hard times and a change of administration may have somothing to do with the unusual number of ap plicants, but, -.whatever tho cause, there has been no backwardness In approaching the delegation. How Appointment Are Made. The Anderson County dolegatiqn will follow the custom that has al ways prevailed throughout the State in recommending appointments.. A meeting will be held in Columbia, probably between the convening of the general assembly and the first of February, when all applications, will be taken up and put to a vote of the members. In tho case of certain ap pointments, such as magistrates, the appointees will have to be confirmed by the State senato, and the senator will thuH have a llttlo more power than a member of the lower house in the. event ho decides to exercise it. It is understood that Senator Sherard will follow the custom that haa al p ways prevailed in the county -and over the State of permitting the mem bora of. the house to share equally with him in passing upon, recom inondations. As the appoint monta , to he made arc of general IntefSiT, Tho Intelli gencer gives below a list of local of ficers with the salaries now fixed by law.

Tho appointment nf dispenrary constables Is purely optional with the governor, lie is not required to ap point any one to aid the usuaT officers to enforce tho law unless In his judg ment it becomes necessary. There is no special act for Anderson County authorizing or requiring theoc ap pointments, and the governor finds authority tot make them under the general provisions of the Carey-Coth ran act. Section 840, Volume 2, of the South Caroiiim cOdv, provides ?i?t "il ??i?l? be the duty of the sheriffs, and their deputies, magistrates, constables, ru ral police, city and town officials, to enforce tho provisions of this chap ter.
