War Department Buys Aeros.

Two aeroplanes, one Curtiss and one
Wright, have been sold to the War De-
partment 1t has not yet been announced
whether they will be sent to the Mex
lean border or retained for training Off
GERS at College Park, where the War
Department is establishing a training
camp. The sudden orders for moblizins
troops in Texas has disarranged the PLAN
of the War Department for training Off
GERS. Three officers who were to be de-
tailed for training have been sent to the
border The army wants as many aero
planes there as possible. though the aero
planes are useless without some one to
operate them. 1t is not likely that they
will be sent, however, until the imme-
date congestion of the railroads incident
to moving troops is over.
Eugene Ely, Curtiss aviator, has
volunteered for scouting service on the
border and the question of accepting his
offer still is being considered.

The Appointments Illegal.

The South Carolina Supreme Court,
in decision handed down last We'd
nesday evening, holds the appoint
ment by the Governor Of two rural
policemen in Greenwood county to be
illegal in that the appointment was
made by the Governor without the
recommendation of the legislative
delegation Of the county.
The court held that "appointmonts
to office, not being inherently an ex-
ecutive prerogative, it Is competent
for the Legislature in comforting the
power of appointment to attach such
limitations and conditions to it's cx-
ercise as may be deemed proper"
Although holding the appointments
to be illegal, the court orders that
the two rural policemen be paid sala-
ries for two months.
