The justices ai-e unpaid, and they elect their own chairman. The most important duty of the justices is the main- tenance of the county police. Subject to confirmation by the Home Secretary, the Quarter Sessions fix tlie number of men and officers for the county. They appoint the chief constable, in whom are vested all the powers of the old high constables of the hundreds. The chief constable appoints the superintendents, sergeants, and men. The Treasury pays one half the cost of the pay and cl...othing of the police force. The cost of the county police in 1880 was about £1, 000, 000. The expenses are defrayed out of a special police rate, wliich is for the most part assessed and levied like the county rate. Provision is made for contributing boroughs and liberties, also for special districts requiring extra police. As we have already seen, the justices in quarter sessions are entrusted with the duty of forming highway districts. Under the Act of 1878 special powers are given to them to coerce defaulting highway boards who have neglected to maintain their roads in proper repair.
