Dean The Bill Dismissed at the Loft of the
Cambria Iron Cmpany. At the meeting
.f the Court on last Tuesday, Judge Dean
read a very able and exhaustive opinion on
the Bill iu Equity liled by the Cambria
Iron Company, at the last December Term,
against -the County Commissioners and
j certain collectors of taxes in the southern
e6i ' Poltiou of the county. As our leaders
j fully understand from what lias heretofore
! been said in our paper, this Bill in Equity
254.33 ! prayed the Court to compel the t ounty
j Commissioner to enforce & certain Act of
; Assembly, approved April Sth, 1S72, chang
3,000 ig- Uie jm.tj uf collecting taxes in this
I ccanty. Fixmi the peculiar phraseology
250 ; l'le "lst section of the Act, the Com
j missioners declined to carry out its pro
I visions for the year lb72. lt will be seen
- 200 i from the opinion of Judge Dean, which we
publish below, that he fully sustains the
i Commissioners iu their refusal to execute
450 j the law last year, and that the first of
April. 1873, was the earliest period of time
inn which the Commissioners could be le
0 j gaily requited to put it in force. This they
will clo, antl they always intended doing so.
We are well satisfied that the views of
Judge Dean are sound and correct on this
j miserably bungled antl self-stultilymg Act
j of the Legislature, and that it will meet the
j approval of all candid and unprejudiced
lu.iiua.

Cambria Iron Company
vs.
March T'm,
Commissioners of Cam- 4
1873.
bria county ?f. . $
This is a bill iu equity filed by th Cam
bria Iron Company, complainant's, prayii.yi,
for the reasons therein set forth, that an in
junction may issue to restrain the resnond-
I ents, the County Commissioners of thisconn
j ty, and the tax collectors appointed by them
and acting under their warrant, from collect
ing by levy, distraint, suit, or otherwise, the
! taxes assessed uihui the property of com
I plainsnts in Johnstown, CouemaiiKh, anil the
! boroughs and townships contiguous thereto.
Hitherto the taxesof Cambria rotintv have
le'u assessed and collected under and in the
manner provided by the Act of 18'3-1 and the
several Minplements and amendments there
I to. Jh.t, ou the 8th day of April. 1872, an
j Act was parsed by the Legislature pro viding
j an entirely different method of collectirg
I these taxes, so far as this county is eou
I cernrd, tliiin that indicated in the old law.
; That Act enacts :
Seithi.i I. That f mm nnd after the pnssnsre
"of ti:i.--,Act. it shall lie t l.o duly .of the ( .,,mius
"sioncni of Cambria county, iu each antl every
' yt-nr immediately aftirth-assessment of ta.
" e for state nnd county purposes shn !l be ecta
"pleted. not later than tin- lirgt .Moiulay in
"A piil. in tlie manner preset ihe.l ty lw, to
" cause their del k to make out a fair duplicate
"of all seated real es'an and personal property
usaessecl. wit h tin-tuses tbei on. in -. ihiivu
" nieut form, and deliver thi- same to the l"r-;ii-"urerof
sunt eoutity, together wilh a eertiti-"i-u!c
under their haiidc, attested by tbecierk.
duly eei nfj iiirf thesauie to have bern regu
' iarly i'ss sted."
From the wording of this section the ques
tions to be here tivcided mainly arise. The
1 ei olid section enacts that it shall be the duty
of the Treasurer togive public notice in each
township and borough, and attend in person
or by deputy at least one day. before the 1st
day ol" September in each year, for the j.-ir-pos
of receiving taxes ; wilh a proviso, that
if any jw-rson shall, on or lief ore the 1st day
of September, pay the taxes assessed against
him to the county treasurer, he snail be al
lowed a deduction of five per cert, on the
amount ol his tax. From ihe third to the
eighth sections, inclusive, provision is made
for the enforcement of payment against de
linquent taxpayers and defaulting officials.
Scciiou nine fixes the compensation of the
county treasurer. Section ten declares that
all laws for the collection of taxes, iu so far
as they relate to paid county, and are incon
sistent with said Act are repealed.
It will be observed that this Act is ap
proved bv the Governor April 8th, 1872.
i he county commissioners, Mipposing that
troiu its terms it did not po into effect until !
the year 1873, went on under the old law ami
plated the duplicates containing the assess- j
met. I of taxes tor thn year 1872 in the bands ;
of the respective collectors. In these dttj.Ii- j
cates the complainants are charged with tax-
es tu the aggrcx ;ate amount of .-$7,2-14.. Tn. The
collet tors holding tl duplicates containing !
the items yoing to make up this amount an-
joined with the county commissioners as re
spondent in this suit. j
The complainants arer in their bill that
the appointment of borough and township
collector, antl the delivery of duplicates to
them, wilh warrants for the collection of
taxes, were acts without the authority of j
law ; that the Act of April 8th, 1872, took
effect from its passage ; that it repealed all j
Acts inconsistent therewith, and necessarily
ihercforn the Act of 1834, under which the
commissioners profess to have acted ; that
it was the duty of the county t-ommis.-iiotiers
to deliver, and is now their duty to deliver,
to the county treasurer a "fair duplicate"
of the taxes in and for said bounty for the
year 1872,inclmiing the taxes assessed against
the complainants; that it is the right and
duty of said treasurer to receive and of com
plainants to pay to said treasurer the taxes so
assessed; that iu the assertion of a right, and
to set ure a brnetit conferred upon tnem, as
well as ujMiu all others who choose to avail
themselves thereof, by said Act of April 8,
1872, they tendered to the county treasurer
the gross amount of taxes assessed against
tiiem, prior to the 1st day of September, '72,
i-.- i. .i...i.,,.,iirl UVf ,.,.-,.t. allowed
by law . Anil they I urt ner , n.... i..
olation of said Act, and without authority of
law, the collectors appointed by the commis
sioners are threatening to lery upon the pro
perty of complainants, and they therefore
pray the Court to enjoin said collectors, etc.
The respondents, while they accuse eom
pla. nants of laches, in waiting until the 2d
nay " Ceccunlier before riling their bill, and
hindering at this late day respondents in the
collection of the taxes by raising a question
w hich could have been raised ami decided
months ago, file a general demurrer, atlmit
tine the tacts set forth in the bill, but deny
ing the right of the complainants, ou the
facts, to the relief prayed for
The respondents claim that the Act of 8th
of April, Js.72, by its terms only authorizes
the adoption by them of the mode therein
pointed out for tha roliction of taxes in the
future, to wit, in the year 1873, and each anj
every y ear thereafter ; that by no reasonable
construction of it can it be applied to the
year 1872 ; that they intend ami are ready to
follow its provisions for the year 1873 ; that
under the old law, which was considered by
them in force lor the year 1872, they made
out and delivered to the collectors the. dupli
cates. Tints, we have two different interpreta
tions of the same statute. One, claiming
that the omission to fix the year 1873 in the
Act as the time at whicn it should go into j
effect, and declaring that "on and alter the
passage of this Act" it shall Ixs the duty 01 j
the county commissioners, etc., indicates
an intention that it should apply to the col- j
lection of taxes for the year 1872. The other,
that as 1872 is not named in the Act as the
year, and as it is made the duty of the coun
ty commissioners, "riot later" than the first
Monday of April, tot ause their clerk to make
a fair duplicate, etc., and the Act lieing dated
after the litst Monday of April, 18i2, the
Legislature clearly intended it to apply only
to future years.
"Statutes should le construed according
" to the most natural and obvious import of
"their language, without resorting to subtle
"or forced construction, for the purpose of
"either limiting or extending their ojera
"tion." iMtten's Dicurris on statutes, page
144. "Statutes arc to be cotistrued to oper
"atc prospectively, unless a retrospective
"effect W clearly intended." IMA Harris,
243 ; llffc Harris, 501 ; and the numerous au
thorities therein cited.
Keeping, then, iu view these rules of in
terpretation, we have before us a law passed
on the 8th of April, 1872, which prescribes
that a certain duty, to be jeTformcd by the
county commissioners, shall be performed
by them not later than the first Monday in
April of each and every year. So far as the
year 1872 is concerned, then, the time for
the performance of the first act on the part
of the commissioners bad passed before the
law had psd. No word in the statute in-
! dicates 1S72 as the year, or we might Fay Unit
j the contingency that tbe Art luiht not h-
t.-iui u iaw unui autr the nrst .Monday in
April of that rear, was not within legisla
tive mind. The words "from and alter the
passage of this Act" have no special signifi
cance which warrants the construction that
the year 1872 was meant. With these words
the Act goes into effect at the same time as
without them, and no sooner. Statutes take
effect from their date, unless it he otherwise
provided. liraddse t s. Jirowvfcld, 2d Watts
ofc Sergeant, 278. The argument, that these
words are rendt-red nugatory unlt-hs the law
h applied to 1872, in not, it seems to us, well
founded. The assessment and collection of
taxes is not a daily nor a monthly duty im
posed upon the commissioners. Itisunnual,
to lie performed once in each year for that
year, and the Legislature may very properly
have thought that- lor the year 1872 this duty
had beeu partially performed under lh old
law. Thinkinir thus, it is probable thy did
not have, as they did not express, an inten-
tioii inai me law should nave reiroa-iiT
effect, but only intended that the first ptr-
foriuance of the yearly duty of the couiinis-
sinners thereatteV should be in accordance
with its provisions. If this le correct, the
words have their literal force, and the law is
entirelv harmonious in all its provisions.
In this view we have taken, the obvious im-
. , " e iaMii, .
roil . i int i.mguage used, as wen tor. i-ji
lor ITIICCI unless I no nni;i.'ii .ifc.
they should have such ffect 1 clear, cou
nt rain us to decide that this statute was in
tended to go into effect not ufer than the Hrst
Monday in April, 1873.
It is claimed bv tlm counsel for comnlain-
nt, in his verv able ami ingenious argument,
that the dntv directed to be performed not
1.. ... -,
iiou iu nrst .Mounavin -urii. imre-
ly directory, and tha. as thn interest of tho
public was tub" subserved, the statute should
lie construed liiierally, so as not to deprive
the public of the benefit intended to be con
ferred. It is true that statutes directing a mcV of
proceeding on the part of public officers are
to be regard eu as directory merely, unless
negative words make the direction" impera-l'vn-
Uf arris on Mutates, 715. But, with
out stopping to discuss the question whether
the negative words, not later than the ftrst
Monday in April, make this direction imper
ative, it is sufficient to say that thr-y aid in
clearly iiirlinating the intention of the L?jis
latttre that the Act should not have a retro
active effect. In ascertaining tli9 intent of
the Legislature, it is not material whether
the duty of the commissioners could have
len legally performed later than thn first
M outlay of Apr:!. That question miht
arise in the future ; it is not liefore us now.
And while it is true that laws designed to
benefit public interests and we have rio
doubt that this law was so intended and that
it will benefit the public are to be liberally
construed, ret
beralitv of construction can- !
not be carried so far as toovnrt hrow the clear
intent o. the law, no matter who is lo be ben- j
elitted. If in a law we find the omission of '
aoiuetliiiiK essential, or which is a necessary
result 01 its provisions, and requisite to give
the law its full effect, we mar sttpplv what j 45A'-enr"-is
wautiiif: but not expressed, and extend j truly savhHt sh
the law to what it was manifestly intended excellent wife :
to embrace lint tloes not m express words In
clude ; but courts are not at liberty to hold
that th- Legislature intended anything dif
ferent from what their plain language im
ports. So that, admitting that this statute
is directory merely, that it wa Intended to
benefit the public, and that the public bene
fit is postponed by the construction we give
it, wn . at. not amend it so as to give any other
effect than was intended by the power that
made it.
T he course for complainant has cited and
relied on the case of Commonwealth vs. Civ.
nynj.'ham, lbth L. I Smith,!, as ruling the
questions raised here. We do not think it
does. In that case the Legislature, by Act
of March 3d, 1870, provided for the appoint
ment of three coal mine inspectors for thn
counties of Luzerne and Carbon, upon thn
recommendation of a board of examiners to
bo appointed by the Court of Common I'lnas
of Luzerne co.mty. The fourteenth Section of
the Act provided that these inspectors should
be appointed Ly the Governor, upon the re-
oommondatioti ot the board or examiners,
"?.jim the I'tisnate of this act.
Further, that
the examiners should be appointed bv the
Judges at t)i" first term of the Court in each :
year. The fourth suction requires the in- !
spei tors to perform certain duties with'ti i
four rnoiithf after thf.wtitfwf the a-t. The
first term or ihe Court tor that year had !
passed liefore tli act became a law. Altbo' !
the I'.rst term had passed, the Supreme Court '
say, referring to thn sections directing the !
inspectors to be appointed "upon the passage
of this act," and requiring certain duties to I
be performed "within four months after the !
passage of the act," that it was the manifest j
intention of the Legislature, from these pro- j
visions and raativ others in the act. and from ;
the whole act, that, it was to go into opera
tion as sonn as the organization of its ma
chinery wot: Id permit. There, from th
words and provisions of thn act itself, it was
manifest it wss to go into operation imme
diately ; here, from the words and provisions
of the act itself, it is manifest iLxt it is to go
into operation thn year succeeding its pass
age. The argument of respondents, that preat
inconvenience would result were the collect
ors to be enjoined at this late day that their
duplicates, already partly collected, would
have to ht recalled by the commissioners,
new ones mat'.t out ami delivered to the
county- treasurer tints creating great con
fusion and entailing inconvenience, expense
temj.latetl or alsmt to lie done, by them, the
complainants cannot nave retiei uy ltijuiic
tion, but must ask a mandamus to the com
missioners, commanding them to deliver the
tax duplicates to the county treasurer, that,
he may proceed to collect and receive the
taxes as required by the act. We have pre
ferred to base our decision on an interpreta
r .1 , i,, ,, o o..bni.at
ou of the act ratlmr than upon a tot linn al
i.jection to the form or complaint.
Therefore neither the necessity which
died for the passage of th- law northecood
tion
ot
called for the passage of thn law nor the good
it might accomplish it sooner put into oper
ation can relieve us from the duty of saying
that its most natural am! obvious import is,
