Ottawa, Ont., April 10.?Lord Kitchener
nas called on Canada for a second
expeditionary force.
The news was given parliament tcmVht
hv Premier Sir Robert Borden.
?~ ?
who said that the call tad been expected
for some time.
Threeb months ago Gen. Kitchener
was informed *hat t/e force was ready
in Canada to sail fci Furope. Premier
Lorden said that s;nce that time the
war office had oetn kept fully informed
on its-training and Vad made suggestions
which had ceen followed with
absolute precision ! ;? the Canadian authorities.
Now f/ at the summons liad
i come the second expeditionary toreo
will go forward at an unrevealed date
in the near future to join the first expeditionary
Canadian force at the

The prenuir noted that witl'.i an enormous
number of men under training
in Great Britain the task to provide
accommodations and training for the
various contingents from the over-seas
dominions are not an easy one.
The announcement of. Lord Kitchener's
call was received with cheers
from both parties in the house. Premier
Borden followed it wit'i a statement
of the progress Canadian authorities
have made in raising, arming,
training and dispatching troops since
the opening of w?r. This showed that
in tl e Dominion and abroad on th*
pay roll of Canada 101 650 men are
bearing arms cr performing military
service.
"So far as at present can be foreseen,"
said the premier, "a total number
of about 150,000 men will be required
should t':e war last another
year."
Two armored machine gun units are
being mobilized, one at Toronto and
one at Montreal. It has not been decided
whether they will acc mpany the
second division abroad.
TJie mountej rifles are being mobilized
in thirteen regiments "for service
in Egypt.
governor 'may name
Mn>tables and fix salaries
The Record, 8th.
Tiiat the governor has a right to
appoint sucu State constables as he
may deem necessary to enforce t).t?
laws.of South Carolina and fix their
salaries, such sa aries to be paid out
of the special fund in the hands of the
, chief executive for law enforcement,
is the opinion of Fred H. Dominiok,
assistant attorney general, which was
rendered H ursaay morning ai me request
of Gov. Manning. Many counties
have been exempted from the law authorizing
constables.
The opinion of the assistant attorney
general relative to the employment
of a constabulary by the governor
'.oilows:
"Hon. Rich. I. Manning, Governor, Colombia,
S. C.
"Dear Sir: I am in receipt of yours
of t':e oth inst., in whici'n you say:
" 'Please advise me as to the authorits
of tr.e governor in appointing constables
to enforce the dispensary law.
and whether he ::?-s J e authority to
determine the number of constables
employed in tine counties and to fix
their salaries, and what has been the
custom of the governor in ti ese mutters.'
"Section 840 of the criminal code,
1912, provides as follows:
"'It shall be the duty of the sheriffs,
and- their deputies, magistrates, constables,
rural police, city and town
officials, to enforce the provisions of
this chapter. If they fail to do so, it
is (hereby made the duty of the gov
ernor to enforce the same, and lie is
hereby authorized to appoint suc;i
deputies, constables and detectives as
may be necessary, the salaries and
expenses of such officers to be paid out
of the profits of the dispensaries in
counties wherein they may be established,
and out of the ordinary county
funds in counties wherein tfrey havs
not been established: Provided. That
the supervisor of Colleton county
shall be prohibited from paying any
dispensary constables for work in sai.l
tfvmntv out nf anv (funds in the hands
\ of tfce said county supervisor: Provided,
also. That tJiie county supervisor
and county board of commissioners of
said county of Colleton are hereby authorized
and directed to pay the magistrate
and his constable ten dollars
each for every case sent in sessions
court by them where a conviction is
had with production of defendant.'
"Under tiae statute quoted, tfae gov
f 1
erncr has full power generally to ap- j
point such deputies, constables and dotectives
as may be necessary for t'.ie I
j en orcement of the dispensary law. j
i Unless otherwise provided by special j
statute the governor has the authority .
i to determine the number of constables |
! employed in a county and to fix their !
salaries. TV is, as I understand it, has ,
not only been the custom of the gov-1
ernors in such matters, but is the law. j
"The appointment of dispensary;
constables, aowever, has been restrict- j
ed in many counties or tne staie. r>> ;

I Rheumatism |
Just put a few drops of Sloan's
on the painful spot and the pain
stops. It is really wonderful
how quickly Sloan's acts. No
I need to rub it in?laid on lightly I
it penetrates to the bone and
brings relief at cnce. Kills
rheumatic pain instantly.
Mr. James E. Alexander, of North H
Ilarpsxrell, Mc., writes: "Many strains I
in my back and hips brought on rheu
mntism in tho sciatic nerve. I had it so H
bad oae night when sitting in my chair,
that I had to jump on my feet to get
relief. I at once appliod your Liniment
to the affected part and in less then ten
minutes it was perfectly easy. I think
it is the best'of aii Liniments I have
ever used."
