MAYOR ROYAITMAY
RUN FOR RE-ELECTION

first decision on the question. The
text of the opinion reads:
Opinion In Fall
The opinion follows:
"This rase on the pleadings presents
the single simple question of law
whether the plaintiff is eligible to re
election as mayor of the city of Wilkes-
Barre.
"He was elected to that office for
term beginning December, 1911, when
the city was governed by Act of May
23, 1889, P. L. 277, 'providing for the
Incorporation and goverhment of cities
of third class; and has been continued
in office until the present year under
Act of June 27, 1913, P. L. 568, covering
the same subject and establishing in
this city what is known as the commis
sion form of government.
"He now proposes to become a can
didate for re-election, and for that pur
fiose to avail himself of the usual legal
nstrumentallties, inter alia, a petition
filed with the county commissioners, to
place his name upon the official pri
mary ballot.
"These commissioners, however, rude
ly announce their determination not to
receive such a petition, and deny his
eligibility to re-election because the
said Act of 1889 expressly provides In
Article VII, Section 1. P. L. 298, that
the mayor of such cities 'shall not be
eligible to re-election for the next suc
ceeding term.'
"He, contra contends that the pro
vision against re-election was re
pealed by the said Act of 1913. All in
firmities and informalities in the mode
of procedure are waived.
"Thus the Issue is squarely presented
whether the Act of 1913, in that respect,
does repeal the Act of 1889; and If we
decide In the affirmative the mandamus
sought In this proceeding should be al
lowed. compelling the county commis
sioners to file the plaintiff's petition
for a place upon the ballot, but if we
decide in the negative, the mandamus,
of course, should be refused.
"The four judges of this court be
fore whom the question was argued,
oame at once to the unanimous and
unhesitating conclusion that the Act
of 1918 has repealed the provision In
the Act of 1889 prohibiting re-election,
and If so, ths present obstacle should

BUSINESS NOW BOOMS
AT SPARROWS POINT
Subsidiary of Local Company Has
Enough Business Booked to
Run One Year
Considerable local interest Is mani
fested in the increasing activity at the
Sparrows Point steel plant, controlled
by the Pennsylvania Steel Company,
and the prosperity there is expected
to spread to Steelton. The marine de
partment of the Maryland plant has
enough orders already booked to keep
it in full operation until September,
1916. it Is said.
One of the reasons for the activity
in this department is accredited to the
fact that the plant holds a peculiar
record for the rapid and at the same
time finished work which they do on
ships ordered from them.
This rapidity was especially noted
in the recent launching: of th* Act\llles.
a mammoth collier, which slipped
down the greased ways two months
ahead of contract time and finished to
the smallest detail. Several days later
the company received a congratulatory
telegram from the Navy Department
at Washington In which they com
mented on the finished condition of
the ship and also expressed great satis
faction over the trial trips before she
was sent to the Panama canal.
At the present time the Maryland
Steel Company is engaged in the con
struction of nine large vessels, among
them being four freighters for the
An-erlcan-Hawailan Steamship Com
pany, two freighters for the A. H. Bull
Steamship Company and two similar
freighters for the Munson Steamship
Company.
It was learned that at the present
time the company cannot take vessel
business for delivery before Septem
ber. 1916, and this pile of business can
only Indicate one thing—that the or
ders already booked for this depart
ment are exceptionally large.
The stock of the Pennsylvania Steel
Company has recently risen from 5
to 10 points. It is significant, then,
that the Sparrows Point concern, con
trolled as it is by the larger cor
poration, should prosper, as most of
the contracts are let through the Penn
sylvania's headquarters.
Only Saturday the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company let an order to the
Pennsylvania Steel Company for 34,850
tons of steel rails. It is understood
that these rails will be rolled at the
Maryland' plant. This order is made
up of two types of rails, one weighing
100 pounds to the yard and another
making 12 5 pounds to a similar dis
tance. The latter weight is used on
tracks over which especially heavy
traffic passes. A short time ago a
marked scarcity of rail orders was
noted at the Maryland shops. This
recent order, however, will keep them
busy for some time to come.
Many who know the exact condition
of affairs of the Pennsylvania and
Maryland concerns argue that the re
cent decision at Trenton in favor of
the United States Steel Corporation
has worked a world of good with all
the steel Industries of the country.
They point out that private concerns
shewed a spirit of reluctance over
placing orders with firms said to be
violators of the Sherman antitrust law.
Improvement in Steel
Industry Is Reported
The Iron Age in its issue to-day re
ports further improvement in the iron
and steel industries. Many plants are
going into service after long suspen
sions and plants now in service are
increasing their capacity. In part its
market summary follows: .
"The drift of the steel situation is
seen in the order given by the Car
negie Steel Company for starting up
its North Sharon, Pa., plant consisting
of six open hearts furnaces and a blast
furnace. The company is also con
sidering putting its Bessemer steel
works at Columbus, Ohio, in operation
to supply steel to the sheet bar mill
there. The Sharon and Columbus
plants have been idle for more than
two years.
"The Steel Corporation's orders are
now running about 10,000 tons a day
more than Its output and shipments
are nearly 10,000 tons a day more
than at this time last year.
"Urgent Inquiries have come from
Europe for rails—2oo,ooo tons in all,
most of It for Russia. August de
livery Is wanted in part. The early
placing of 150,000 tons In this coun
try is expected. New rail business at
home is limited to 5600 tons for the
Southern, placed with the Pennsyl
vania Steel Company. The Lacka
wanna Steel Company will roll 6000
tons for the Cuba Railway."

tiff's ambition.
Xm Act I» Substitute
"Comparison of the two Acta, title
for title and section for section, ex
cludes doubt that the later revises
the whole subject matter of the earlier
Act, being obviously intended as a sub
stlttue. and that Article VI. Section 1,
of the later Act (P. L. 591) viz: 'The
mayor and members of the city council.
In cities of the third class, shall be at
least twenty-five years of age. and shall
be elected by the electors at large, they
shall have been citizens and inhabi
tants of the city wherein they shall be
elected one year before their election,
and shall reside therein during their
terms of service,' completely supplies
Article VII. Section 1. or the earlier Act
(P. L. 298) viz: 'The mayor of each
of said cities of the third class shall
be at least twenty-five years of age and
shall have been a citizen and Inhabitant
of the State four years and an inhabi
tant of the city for one year before his
election: he shall be chosen at the mu
nicipal election to serve for the term of
three years, and until his successor Is
duly elected and qualified, and shall not
be eligible to re-election for the next
succeeding term;' thus bringing the
case within the general principles de
fined by Endllch's Interpretation of
Statutes and so often affirmed by the
dectsions as not to require citation,
viz: 'The later Act works an Implied
repeal In all cases In which a general
revision of the old law Is made by the
Legislature, with an intent to substi
tute the new legislation for the old.'
'The general rule seems to be that parts
of statutes omitted from a revision are
to 4>e considered as annulled and are
not to be revived by construction:'
'such an omission, which cannot of
course be supposed to have been un
intentional. Is. In general, tl be re
garded as s repealer of the omitted
acts or provisions, and the courts are

Appeal, 33 Superior 198, Railroad Com
pany vs. Bogert. 209 Pa. at page 595).

Is carried forward without loss of
Identity.
"It seems incredible that the law
makers. if they had intended to pre
serve such a significant prohibition,
could possibly have failed to express
the intention with unequivocal direct
ness instead of leaving Its dependent
upon the uncertain hazard of implica
tion.
Mayor's Humble Functions
"This conclusion Is fortified by the
consideration that while a few dis
tinctive, though humble functions,
are still preserved to the mayor by the
later Act. he is nevertheless thereby
practically reduced to the level of a
plain councilman, being shorn of the
Srerogatlve and patronage which cou?d
e used to promote his re-electTbn, thus
nullifying the reason for noneliglbllity
and removing the ground for distinction
In this respect between himself and the
councilmen.
"The conclusion is further fortified
by the consideration, based upon re
j liable Information, that in the conven
-1 tlons of third class city representatives
who discussed and framed this scheme
:of municipal government before Its
submission to the Legislature. the
| proposition of noneliglbllity was re
i jected -by the consensus of opinion and
I deemed to be eliminated by tne present
law.
"And, finally, the conclusion Is not
Impaired at all by the provision in
Article XXX, Section 4, of the Act of
1913, which is really surplusage and
merely declares R general prln<Hple_of
statutory construction, viz: "All Acts
of Assembly or parts of acts relating
to cities of the third class not incon
sistent with'the provisions of this act,
shall be and remain In full force." for
by the same provision 'all acts and parts
of acts. etc.. appertaining to the sub
ject matter covered by this act, are
hereby repealed;' and by force or the
principle of Intended substitution here
inabove defined, present recognition of
the omitted words would be inconsistent
with legislative Intention.
"Accordingly the answer, which re
lies upon the Act of 1889, Is adjudged
insufficient, the demurrer,, which re
lies upon the allegation of repeal, Is
sustained, and Judgment Is now entered
that a peremptory mandamus shall is
sue as prayed in the petition."
