The force throughout has been aater:
aly cut dowo. Gen. Pope has just coim
pilted the work, and all the appoint

tece!ly vague rumors as to the i_
tende.d reorganization have been heard.,
but niothig detiuite has Leretofoie
voe givej.
La,t eveuing a representative of The
State called ou the Attoruey General
and asked him about the contemplated
eLaLges. He said he had no objectious
to making a statement, as he had
alead y cvwpleted the work.
TI-' nEDUCTION.
;eL. Pope said he had decided to cut
down the nuruber of solicitors and
eleis. He will call upou only four so
licitors and reduce the clerical force to
liue meu. Th:s is a very considerable
reductiou.
TBE AiPoINTMENTs.
When asked if he could give the
names of the appointees Gen. Po;e said:
Yes, I have called upon the foflowing
solicitors to serve: J. A. Johuson, of
the Fourth Circuit;P. H. Nelson, of the
F1ifh Circuit; 0. L. Sehumpert, of the
Sventh Circuit, and M. F. Ansel of the
Eighthi Circait.
"On the clerical force, F. F. Coving
:oU, of Florence, will be chief clerk.
Tbe. othei eight clerks I have appointed

Gen. Pope also said : "If, after the
Legislature couvenes, it becomes neces
sary to have other solicitors and addi
tional clerks, they will be promptly se
cured."
WilY IT WAS DONE.
Gen. Pope. when asked why such
action had been taken, said: "I be
lieve economv demands the reduction :
but if pracucal experience demonstrates
that I aui in error, of course I will take
steps to see that the puL:c interests do
not suller."
