Dividing the cities of this state into
three classes with Ifspect to their
population, and designating Uw mode
' ascertaining ami changing the
classification thereof In accordance
therewith.
Stctlnn 1. He it enacted, etc., that
for the purposes of legislation, reg
ulating their municipal atfalrs, the ex
eiilMi of ecitain corporate powirs
and having respect to tho number,
character, powers and duties of cer
tain officers thereof, tho cities now In
existence and thoso to be herealt'-r
created hi this commonwealth, shall
be divided Into three classes.
Those containing a population of
six hundred thousand or over shall
constitute the first class.
Those containing a population of
ono hundred thousand ami under six
hundred thousand, shall constitute
the second class.
Those containing a population of
under one hundred thousand shall
constitute tho third class.
Sec. 2. Tho classlllcatlon of said
cities, respectively, shall bo ascer
tained by reference to their popula
tion, according to the last preceding
United States census, or any munic
ipal census taken later, and when
ever It shall appear, by any such
census, that any city of the second
or thltd class has attained a popu
lation entitling it to an advance In
classlllcatlon as herein prescribed It
shall be tho duty of the governor tin
der the great seal of the common
wealth to certify the fact according
ly, whloh certlllcato shall bo entered
at largo upon the minutes of tho
councils of such city and recorded
In tho ofllco for the recording of deeds
of tho proper county period.
At the municipal election, occurring
not less than ono month after tho dato
of such certllleate, the proper offi
cers shall bo elected to which tho said
city will become, entitled under the
change In classification, and upon tho
first Monday of April next succeed
ing thereto, tho terms of all officers
of said city, then In office, whose of
fices are tuperseded by reason there
of, shall cease and determine, and the
city so eminent shall be duly or
ganized and t-hall thereafter be con
trolled and regulated by tho laws of
this commonwealth, applicable to tho
same under tho respectlvo classifica
tions hereby fixed and appointed.
Approved the eighth day of May, .
D. IS'.l. James A. Heaver.
CHANGE IS CERTAIN.
That Scrantou will put aside Its
third-class city chnrter and become,
with Pittsburg find Allegheny, n city
of the second class is certain. That it
can at the present time become a sec
ond class city if it so desires is also a
certainty. Whether or not It is desir
ous of quitting the class which Wllkes
Harro so recently reached, and taking
on the dignity of companionship with
tho two big cities of tho west, Is a
question for the people at large.
Seranton has 24,097 registered voters;
the county commissioners' books show
21,1 IS taxnbles; the directory compula
tion gives us u population of lKi.ono,
and tho hoard of trade is positive that
we have all of that number. It is safo
to say that a census taken at this time
would show n population of over 100,000.
Should public sentiment fnvor the
change, councils could order a census
unci upon it being certified to the gov
ernor that wo have 100,000 Inhabitants
a second-class charter would Issue.
Tho change, at nil events, will come
In the course of three years or so, for,
beyond all doubt, the l'JOO census will
show Scrnnton to have n population far
In excess of the figure which makes it
incumbent upon a city to accept a
second-class charter.
When the change does come, the city
will undergo an almost complete trans
formation in the matter of govern
ment. Scarcely an ofllco that now ex
ists under the third-class charter will
escape being1 disturbed, In ono wny or
tho other, and besides, several new and
some of them very Important offices
will he ndded to the list.
Incidentally, liquor licenses will cost
$1,100 Instead of IKO, as at present, and
thu school board which is operating
under nn act applying to school dis
tricts In cities of the third class will be
dissolved. It will also nffect the poor
hoard, It would appear, In like manner.
At least there would be a conflict be
tween the special law under which the
board at present works and the second
class charter.
PRINCIPAL OFFICERS.
The principal officers of a second
class city are moyor, comptroller,
treasurer, director of department of
public works, director of department of
public safety, director of department
of charities, city solicitor, city auditor
and delinquent tax collector. Select
council consists of one member from
each ward; common council In this city
would have about forty members, the
representation being based on the size
of the ward.
Among the moro Important of the
minor officers made necesary by tho
operations by a second-class city char
ter nro five police magistrates, two city
clerks, messenger of councils, chief as
sessor and two assistant nssessors, as
sistant city solicitor, superintendent of
bureau of fire nnd assistant, superin
tendent of bureau of police and assist
ant.Bupcrlntendent of bureau of health,
food Inspector.superintendent of bureau
of electricity, superintendent of bureau
of engineering nnd surveys, superin
tendent of bureau of highways and
sewers, superintendent of bureau of
wuter, superintendent of bureau of
public lighting, superintendent of
bureau of parks, director of de
partment of charities. 'Provision Is also
made for a superintendent of bureau
of wharves nnd landings, but It Is pos
sible that this city will neglect to fill
that office.
There Js, of course, provision also for
such clerks nnd nsslstants ns tho city
may find It necessary to have, and it
is likely that unless the city should
come to own its own water nnd light
works the superintendents of the
bureaus of water nnd public lighting
would not bo chosen.
The mayor is elected for three years
by the people. Ills solo duties are to
review legislation, preserve tho peace,
enforce city ordinances and supervise
nnd pay tho city officers, Ho has
nothing whatever to do with appoint
ments of policemen, firemen, Inspect
ors or heads of burenus or departments.
Ills salary Is fixed by councils.
THE POLICE POWER.
The police power of taking Informa
tion, making arrests and conducting
hearings, rests In tho mayor nnd five
police magistrates (not necessarily al
dermen) to be appointed by the mayor
with the consent of councils, all of
them not to be of the same political
party, und their respective districts to
bo fixed by councils.
All the other officers, including comp
troller (which corresponds to our pres
ent controller), city treasurer, city ns
sessors nnd the like are chosen by
councils for two-year terms.
The board of nssessors consists of
five members, a chief and four assist
ants. Heal estate Is assessed in three
classes. Farm land Is assessed one
third of the highest rnte of tax re
quired to ho assessed; rural or subur
ban property pays two-thirds of the
highest rate, and city or built-up prop
erty pays all of the highest rnte. The
highest rate of tax necessary to be as
sessed Is fixed each year by councils
after the assessors make their return
of property classlllcatlon. The nctunl
cash value nf property Is the basis of
taxation.
The cltv auditor looks after the ac
counts of all city officers, making
monthly report of his work to councils.
The director of public safety Is ap
pointed by councils for four years. Ho
has supervision of the police force, pub
lic health, fire department, city tele
graphs, fire escapes, police stations,
patrol houses, lire houses and fire ap
paratus. He appoints the superintend
ent of police, superintendent of tho
bureau of fire and all policemen nnd
firemen, the building inspector, super
intendent of the bureau of health and
the like.
The board of health under a second
class city charter will be supplanted by
a bureau of health, which shall consist
of a superintendent nnd such employes
ns may ho deemed necessary.
ITHLIC WORKS.
The director of the department of
public works has charge of the depart
ments now governed here by the city
engineer, street commissioner and park
commissioners nnd lias charge of all
realty owned by the city. He appoints
tho heads of the various bureaus in
his department, such ns superintend
ent of engineering nnd surveys, super
intendent of the bureau of hlghwnys
and sewers, superintendent of the
bureau of water, superintendent of the
bureau of public parks, superintend
ent of the bureau of public libraries.
t'nder the act of June 1G, 1891, which
was enacted at the time Allegheny
passed from a third to a second class
city, tho office of director of the poor
in cities of the second class was abol
ished, and the power of directing the
work of charity was vested In a de
partment of public charities. Scran
ton upon becoming a second class city
would have to accept this law and In
some way or other divorce Itself or
Dunmore from the Seranton poor dis
trict. The department of charities is un
der the charge of a director and con
sists of simply the director and the
usual employes of a poor district. In
this, as In every other department, the
appropriate committee of councils has
a supervisory power.
The law governing the apportion
ment of common councllmeu in oP'.'s
of the second class reads as follows:
It shall be the duty of tho assessors
of each ward to return under oath, a
tiuo and exact return of icsldent tux
ables to tho president of tho common
council on or before the first day of July
In each (fourth) year when an appor
tionment Is to be made, and at the first
meeting of tho councils thereafter, a
joint committee of live, two from the
select and three from the common coun
cil, shall be appointed, who shall exam
ine tho said returns and divide tho
wholo number of taxablis hy forty and
tho quotient shall be tho ratio of repre
sentation for the members of common
council: Provided. That should any ward
have an excess of three-fifths moro than
tho ratio of taxablos. It shall bo en
titled to an additional member; and pro
vided further, that each ward shall have
at least ono member of councils.
NUMBER OF TAXAHLES.
Tho total number of taxable Inhabi
tants In the twenty-one wards of
Seranton Is 21,118. Allowing US for
tho number of non-resident taxables,
and to make round numbers, the ratio
of representation in common council
would be COO. On this basis the dln'e..
ent wards would be represented as fol
lows: First ward, 3; Second ward, 3; Third
ward, 1; Fourth ward, 3; Fifth ward, 3;
Sixth ward, 2; Seventh ward, 1; Eighth
ward. 1; Ninth ward, 2; Tenth ward, 1;
Eleventh ward, 2; Twelfth waul, 1; Thir
teenth ward, 2; Fourteenth ward. 1; Fif
teenth ward, 2; Sixteenth ward, 1; Sev
enteenth ward, 2; Eighteenth ward, 1;
Nineteenth ward, 3; Twentieth ward, 2;
Twenty-first ward, 1, Total, 3S.
By tho tlmo tho law would go into

effect certain of the wards would
doubtlessly have passed the mark en
titling them to nn extra representa
tlve. This Is particularly true in tho
case of tho Eighth, Fourteenth and
Sixteenth wards, which lack but a few
taxnbles to make them each entitled
to two common councllmen. It Is
safe to say that Seranton as a second
class city would have forty council
men. Judging from the present political
complexion of councils, the councils
under the new charter would stand:
Republicans, 37; Democrats, 22.
SOME OF THE ItULES OF COUNCIL
Appended Is mention of some of the
rules of councils In Allegheny, after
which Scrnnton will doubtlessly fash
ion when it oecomes n second class
city. The manner In which they dif
fer from tho present rules here is also
given:
Regular meetings once a month Instead
of weekly.
Calls for special meetings must bo
signed by one-third of the members.
Five Is sufficient here.
Copies of each bill reported from com
mlttco shall be placed In tho hands of
each member by mall or otherwise at
least two days In advance of its consid
eration by councils and no bill shall be
considered unless this provision Is com
piled with. This li not required here.
Mayor given flvo days to sign or veto
a. measure, and a throe-fifths vote nec
essary to override his veto. Tho rules
hero allow fifteen days for the mayor
to pass upon n measure, and a two
thirds vote Is required to pass It over
his head.
STANDING COMMITTEES.
Eight standing committees to be ap
pointed by the presidents of councils
biennially: Finance, public works, pub
lic safety, charities, corporations, sur
veys, library, water. Tho committee
on public works consists of twenty
four members, six from select and
eighteen from common. Ail other com
mittees consist of sixteen members,
four from select nnd twelve from
common. The committees on chnrltles,
public safety, surveys, library and city
digest report In common council. The
others report In select council. The
chairmen of thecc committees are deit
Ignated hy the president of the branch
in which they report Sub-committees
of eight members are appointed by the
committee on public works to look af
ter streets and sewers, property, pub
lic lighting nnd parks; and by the
committee on public safety to look af
