The parpeee of the prevision under eon
sidsratlen waa net te limit legislation, but
merely te prohibit the doing by local or
apeclal law. that whleh can be eoeom pinned
by general lawa. It rel.tea net te tbe sub
aunce, but te themethodaef legIlatlen,and
Imperatively demand, tbe enactment of
general In.tead of local or .pedal lawa,
whenever tbe former are at ah practicable.
The act or 1874 dividing the cltlaa of thla
atate Inte three elasaea, namely, theae con
taining evtr 300,000 population, tbeaa con
taining lea. than 200,000 and ezeeedlng
100,000, entt these containing lea. thaa
100,000 end exceeding 10,000, waa auetelned
as te aush or Its previsions as tnd bssa tr.
Telved la adjudieated eases, because It waa
oen.idoted within the aplrlt If net the
letter of the constitution. Aa te the num
ber of elasaea created, that act appeara te
have eavered the entire ground of elssslfl.
ostlea. It provided far all existing, aa well
aa every conceivable prospective necessity.
It la Impossible te suggest aay legUlatlea
that la or may hereafter become neeeaaary
for any member of either claaa that oannet
without detriment te ether member, cf the
aame class be made applicable te all of them.
It cieaalfloeilen had atepped where the act
of 1874 left It it would nave been well, but
It did net
Without the ellghteat foundation la
necessity the number of elaaaea waa aoen
nor eased te five and afterward, te aeven,
and It thevioleus principle en whleh that
waa done be recegnised by the oeurta the
number may at any time be further in
creased until It equal the number of cities
In the commonwealth. The only possible
purpose of such classification la evasion of
the constitutional limitation, and a aueh It
ought te be unhesitatingly condemned.
Tee loot that the clasalfioatlen of 1870,
and mere especially thatet 18S7,launneee
aary, and therefore unwarranted, ta mani
fest from an Inspection of the acts them
elves. . With very few and unimportant
exception., the oharterpewereof the fourth
te the aeventh elaesea inclusive under the
latter act are precisely similar. There la
nothing In either of tbe points of difference
that can possibly be regarded a. essential.
Aside from tbe Improper consideration
that five elasaea furnish greater facilities
for apeeial leglsla'lea than one eUee would
de, there is nothing te prevent tbe laat
fenr classes from being Included In
the third class, provided by tbe act
of 1874, which comprises ail cities
or mere than 10,000 and less thaa
100,000 population. Their nerds are all
ae similar that ae charter power, required
for either of them will be unnecessary or
detrimental te any of the ethers. The
larger cities or aueh a claw, that Is, a claw
embraelnir all cities of ever 10,000 and leas
than 100,000 population, would doubtless re
quire a larger representation In each branch
of counells ; but that, of oeurae, would be
easily regulated by the adoption of a aulta
bta ward and population basis of represen
tation. Baterenee might also be made te several
apeeial previsions of tbe act el 18:7, aueh
as relating te publle aobeola, taxation, ma
nletpst claims, creating and oentlnuance of
tax, 116ns and aalea of reel estate, I hereto,
eta, but It la unnecessary, la greater or
leas degree they all cil end against tne pro pre
visions prohibiting apeclal legislation. In
addition te that, tbe subject of publle
aoheola la net even hinted at In tbe title of
the act. Moreover, aoheol districts, aa
quasi corporations belonging te the publle
school ayatem, have no necessary connec
tion Tltn municipal government It Is ex.
preaaly required, as we have seen, that all
taxes shall ee levied and oelleoted under
general laws, and it is Impossible te suggest
any valid reason why they should net be
thua levied and oelleoted.
Whether In any given ease tbe Legisla
ture baa tranaoended lta power and pasaed
a law In oeuttlot with tbe limitation la
essentially a question of law and mutt
necessarily be decided by tba oeurta. Te
warrant the conclusion that tbe people In
ordaining auch limitations intend te la
vest their law makers with Judicial power
and thua make them the official arbiters of
tbelrewn acta would require thecletreat
and most empbatie language te that efieet
Ne each intention Is expressed In tbe con
stltutlen and none can be Inferred from
any of lta previsions. That these limita
tions were designed '.te establish a fixed
and permanent rule cannot be doubted,
but It the ultimate application of that rule
were te rest solely In the Judgment of tbe
body en which It waa Intended te operate
nothing could be mere flexible.
Me aueh preposition can be Intended by
tbe oeurta without abandoning one of tbe
most Important branches of Jurisdiction
permitted te them by tne fundamental law,
namely the power te ultimately determine
whether or net tbe given law la loeal or
special and has been pataed In disregard of
tne constitutional limitation that haa been
placed upon the power of the Legislature.
It fellows that tbe decree of the oeart be
low la correct, net only en tbe ground that
as te the city of WUkeebarre the set of 1887
la net yet operative, but also en the broader
ground that tbe act la unconstitutional and
void."
