THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-SATURDAY, AFIUJj 20, 1902.

V
OPINION IN
JENKINS CASE
UNE
OF REASONING OF SU
PREME COURT.
Justice Brown Adopts the Views of
Judge Edwards Regarding the
Blgfht of George W. Jenkins to the
Office but Disagrees as to How His
Compensation Should Be Ascer
tainedCouncils Had Power to Re
duce His Salary but No Power to
Fix a Percentage Basis.
The opinion of the Supreme court In
the ense of George "W. Jenkins iigulnst
the City of Scrunton was received yes
terday by Prothonotary CopclanU. It
was written by Justice Brown. He
closely follows Judge Kdwards' line of
reasoning regarding the right of Mr.
Jenkins to the oince of delinquent tnx
collector, but disagrees with him in the
matter of ascertaining what the com
pensation should be.
The local court Used it at $72.o0,AVhlch
represents the percentage commissions
on the delinquent taxes collected in the
treasurers ofllcp during: the three
months covered by period In the cuse
stated. The Supreme court decides that
3Ir. Jenkins was hi olllce by appoint
ment under the direct provisions ot the
t statute and not the reorganization ordl
'jianco, therefore his compensation must
be regulated by the statute. The coun
cils, under the statute, could have re
duced the salary to $2,r.00. They did not
do this, and it must therefore remain
at the maximum figure specified In the
statute or $5,000.
THU OPINION.
The opinion Is given below In full:
George W. Jenkins, the plalntili below, t,uc.il
lio city of Scr.inton for his compensitlon as de
linquent tax collector for the months of Apiil,
Hay and Junei" 1"01. Whether lie wai the legal
collector for that period, and if fo, what the city
must piy hltn, arc the two question-! rai'ul on
these cross appeals. Their proper licterinin.ilion
depends entirely upon the act of March 7, 1'JOI,
T. L. 20. Uy Article 2, Section 1. ot tint act,
the dcpartmmt of collector of delinquent tacs
is created. Ihc first Fcction of Article 12 au
thorizes the city rceoidcr to nominate and, liy
snd with the adu'ec and consent of the felect
council, to appoint a collector of delinquent
taxes. Section S of the schedule to the net pro
ldcs that a rccordei, appointed hy the goceraor,
for an existing; city of the second class, may flit
all offices created bj the act, without the concur
icnrc of delect council. Article 17 is: "All city
officers and employes slnll rccchc a fixed salary
for their services, and all feci and penalties slnll
bo collected for the city and paid diiectly into
the city treasury." The salaiy of the held of
each department is fixed, by Section .1 of the
ebcdulc, at $5,000, with the provision that coun
cils may reduce it to not lc than $2,G00. By
Article 2, Section 1, councils may, by ordinance,
provide that the city treasurer may ho appoint
ed collector of delinquent taxes. The only other
provision of the act relating specifically to the
department of collector o! delinquent taxes is
Article G: "The collector of delinquent taxes
shall be the head of the department ot delinquent
taxes, and all 1ms and ordinances in force prior
(o the p4c ot this icli roialhe (o (aid truer-
and collection ol delinquent taxes, (halt be
and remain In full force."
CONTENTION Or' OITV,
H Is contended by ttio city of Hiranlon
that, In the face ot this list article,
the, recorder did not liae the power 'to
appoint it delinquent lax collector, became,
by Section S of the act of March IS, 1873, V. I,.
7, the select and common councils of the city,
In joint convention, are authorized to elect tome
tulttblo pcrnon collector of outstanding; or de
linquent taxc, and to ttx hi compensation. The
answer to this Is, that, so far as the election of
u delinquent txx collector Is concerned, the act
of 1878 falls before tint of 1001. The first pro
lclfn for the election of a collector by both
branches of council In joint convention; but the
latter expressly enacts that be Is to bo appoint
ed by the recorder, and the repealing; clauso of
the act of 1001 Is, that "all other laws for the
government ot cities of the second class, unless
preserved by the terms of this act, as well as nil
laws Inconsistent with or supplied by this act, are
hereby repealed," What the legislature evidently
intended to preserve were laws relating to the
powers and duties ot the collector of delinquent
taxes, Thcitc powers and duties are not men
tioned In this later act, and not being Inconsist
ent with noi supplied by any of lis provisions,
are presenxd: but the appointment of the iol
leetor by the recorder Is so Inconsistent with
his election by the councils, and so clearly up
piles it, tint the act ot 188 is repealed by im
plication, as well as by cxprew words. Ihc pro
vision in the supplemental act ot June 20, 1001,
1', f, MO, that "alt laws ind ordinances In foice
nt the pasago of this net, relative (o slid cf
fue.s ami the collection of delinquent taxes, slnll
be and remain in full force, except so far as tho
election of this collector of delinquent taxes is
therein given to councils," Is nothing more thin
the legislature's lotvtiuellon of the act of
March 7, given, pnhiiii. to remove doubts ixlst
ing elsewhere than in the mind of a court called
upon to confine the stitulo. With the depig
ment of collet lor of delinquent tae, cicatcd by
the act of 11)01. and with the powei given in
clem est tcmitt to the iccoider to m.il.e the an
polnlmont without the roncunencc of select
council, .fcnlvlns, having taken the oath at his
office and given bond on April 1, 1001, the day
he was appointed, became the legal collector of
the city, delinquent taxes.
ron.l) NO BH Pf,AlNKII.
Kuuliei iIIi:umIii rouhl not be plainer.
Hut it is uigcd that he was legislated
out of olfkc by the councils of the
city on Apiil 2, ItKH, because, on that day,
an ordinance vvai approved that "the cicpairm.nt
of delinquent tJe shall be in charge of one
person, who shall '-bo the cilv treasurer. He
shall have chaige of the collertlon of delinquent
tuxes." The city, however, did not attempt liy
this ordinance to oust him fiom his office, and
councils could not have done so, even if f.o In
clined. They could no longer elect a tax colla
tor, and they had no control over this particular
appointment. Under the schedule of the act of
1D01, it was exclusively with the recorder. Whit
councils urdertook to do, and did do, by this
ordimnce of April 2, 1001, was simply to exer
cise tlie power given in Section 1 Article 2, Cjf
the act of 1001, to provide "that the city treas
urer may bo appointed collector of delinquent
taxes." It may be that the collector of taxes
hereafter must be the city trcasuicr; but that
question is not now- before us, and we do not,
therefore, consider it. It is sufficient to say that
the ordinance of April 2 might as well not have
been passed, for any effect that it bad on the
appointment made by the recorder th daj' be
fore. This was the slew correctly entertained by
the learned judge bclo'V, who aptly said: "The
recorder unquestionably bad the power, under
the law, to make the appointment. The ordin
ance of April 2 had no legislative existence when
the appointment was made. It can make no dif
ference in the Interpretation of the law whether
a person has been in office one day or a. year.
Tho plaintiff's appointment en April 1 was just
as valid as it the ordinance had been pj"scd nt
a much later period and he had been collecting
the delinquent taxes during that time. Whitcver
effect tho passage of the ordinance) hid on the
offico of collector, It could have no effect on
the validity of tho appointment nude by the tt
cordcr on April 1." v,
Till.' SALAUV.
The salary of the head of this department of
the city government It fixed by llie act ot 1001
at tjut.OOO, with the provision that councils may
Kduco It to $2,C00; but It had not been co re
duced when the recorder luide this appointment.
The salary as fixed by tho statute went with the
office. Kven tt tt could be reduced to affect the
present Incumbent, the reduction could not ho
made by allowing, him it percentage on lit col
lections. The act of March 7, 1W1, expressly
provides for compensation at a fixed mini, which
may be reduced to a fixed rum, and tho set ot
March IS, 1878, In so far as It allows councils
to fix compensation at a percentage on the rot
lection by the collector, Is tuperseded and re
pealed by necessary implication: Nusscr vs.
Commonwealth, 2fi Pa, 1S0; Keller vs. Common
wealth, 71 Fa. 413; Best vs. Baumgardncr, 12J
Pa. 17. Hereafter, under the supplement lo the
act of March 7, 1001, passed June 20, 1001, the
compensation may be by a stated salary or by
fees, as fixed by council, but the present Incum
bent Is entitled to tho compensation fixed by the
statute under which he wasj appointed. This
was ijs.,000 per year. The Judgment In his favor
for $72.fiO Is reversed one! tho rccoid remitted,
with direction lo the court below to enter judg
ment on the case stated In favor of the phlnttff
for 1,2J0.

Among the sundry debts are tho bills
of constables for "non-cst" cases and
of assessors for maklnp; the military en
rollments. Tho former commissioners
refused to pay these and they have
been accumulating for a decade or
more, until now they run up Into the
thousands. The present commissioners
wVro advised that they had to be paid
and propose to make provision for them
in the bond Issue.
Most of 'the bills have been paid with
money temporarily borrowed from the
local bnnki. These loans are of course
drawing; Interest and It will be an
economy lo wipe them outits quickly as
possible.
It was thought some time ago that
tho floating debt could bo liquidated
gradually with the surplus Income from
the regular lax levy ot seven mills.
This would bo made possible, It was
figured, by the substitution of the
salary for tho fee system In paying
county officers, which would reduce
this Item of expense very materially.
The decision In the liens case postpon
ing the charge for three years, does
away with the expected surplus and
leaves no allot native but to issue
bonds.. What little surplus will bo
available is needed to meet the Increase
In expenses resulting from the creation
of the new office of county controller
and orphans' court Clerks.
It Is proposed to make the bonds run
for twenty years and bear four per
cent interest. The rate of Interest,
however, may be deci eased. This will
depend on the condition of the maiket
1 at the time the bonds are teally for
sale.
