ARGUMENTS BEFORE

LEGALITY OF INSPECTOR OUDI
NANCE QUESTIONED.
It Is Alleged That When tho Act of
1887 Was Declnted Unconstitu
tional tho Props Were Knocked
from Under the Ordlnnnce Creat
ing the Office of UulltUng Inspec
toi Worthlngton Scrnnton "Regis

cause they fulled to take out a penult
before beginning tho constuictlon ot
buildings as lequlied by the city onll
luince creating the oillcc of building
Inspector. The tuguments In behalf of
the city weie made by City Solicitor
A A Vnsbtng and Attorney 11. 11.
Hannah nnd C. W. D.iwon aigued In
behalf of the contrnctois.
The arguments on behalf ot the ap
pellants weiu to tDhe effect that under
the provisions of the act of assembly
or Hay 24, 1SS.7, the councils of the
clt of Sim anion passed an ordinance
which was signed by the mayor on
Jlareh 23, 1SSS, "to tcRUlato the con
struction, lepalrs and lemovals ot
buildings In the city ot Scranton " This
ordinance Is the one under which tho
piesent opeiatlon of the building In
speitoi's olllce Is conducted. The su
pieme coutt derided the net of 18S7
unconstitutional, and it was aigued
that as the otdlnniict ilerld Its life
from the net of assembly Pioo, must
fall with the act. therefoie, that the
fines Imposed on tho lonttaitois were
Illegal.
On May 1", 1S.P, the legislature
passed an art to leinedy the defects
of 1SS7. because a number of cities had
been oiganlzed under the act of 1SS7,
nnd thev had gone on and made large
contiacts In the absence of the rem
edial legislation in 1SS9 these i Itles
which had pimlded for laige Impi mo
ments and had contiacts for these 1m
Iiioements In piocess of constiuetlon
would be in n deplorable stnte of chons.
Sir. Uawbon argued, though, that the
lemedlal legislation of 1SS9 only ap
piled to i Itles whiih hud been organ
ised under the act of 1SS7. and not to
Scianton. which was organized under
the ait of 1S74. He held also that the
ordinance- Is unconstitutional because
It does not set forth In' Its title vhnt
Its contents aie, and that It Is uncon
stitutional on account of the ptlce It
fives for pel inks
U was contended by Sir. Vosbuig
that the net of 1S7I. under which
Scranton was organised as a city of
the thlid class, gno the niunlelpil
go eminent the power to pass laws
for the peace, good go eminent and
welfaie of the people. He also aigued
that the ait of lVi uiied all the de
feet of the act of 1SS7 and that It all
ilnted the oidinnnco pa..ed by the city
iciuntils of Scianton creating the office
oT building inspector, which Is the
oidinnmo under consldeiatlon.

An opinion which will be of general

QFHSTION OF AStOFNT
It Is unnecessary to consider tho
