Ills CONCLUSION.
I. therefore. conclude that it is within the
power OF the legislature OF Pennsylvania 10 al.
thorilc The lcvying Of license tax upon prop.
city such as described by this ordinance. aud
that the Legislature can delegate that power 10
any municipal division within tho state. The
municipality may, however be prevented from
lc'ying Tux upon certain corporations or ccr'
tain ptopGlty ii they have acquired certain
rights by reason OF prc.eNisting contracts.
You desire my opinion as to the property of
certain persons named in said ordinance. who
nave entered into u contract Iot term OF Yeas.
a' l am advised. Which contract provides Tor tue
payment of certain money per annlnn upon the
gross receipts of the company or companies
IN ordinance such us this cannot annul II con.
tract which is existing made and executed by
competent parties. In other words. ii the city
OF Scranton has entered into such a contract
(Which have never seem. which provides for
the payment vi certain portion OF its gross
receipts. il would seem to me that SO far as the
property of that party is concerned The council
could not levy again rom its gross receipts d'ir

WHAT RECORDER SAYS.

Recorder Connel was asked ycster-
day afternoon by Tribune man to
state whether he considered the ordi-
nance to be legal.
"Frankly speaking" he replied, Il
do not consider the ordinance legal
| believe that there We're several grave
technical errors made in drawing 1t
up and I am not at all sure that a
municipality can tax these corpora :
tons for revenue producing purposes.
1T must be apparent to any intelli-
gent person that the idca of ler%ing
n tax on the entire gross receipts or
the Scranton Railway company is an
absurd one. Admitting that the city
of Scranton has the right under the
law 10 tax the gross receipts OF TINS
company, it does not follow that she
has the right to lax monies collected
by the company outside of the city. We
would have no right to tax the conf
pany's receipts in Carbondale, Oily
phant and Duryoa, vet there is moth
in. IN the ordinance drawing the line.
1t SAYS the gross receipts and let's it
go at that.
II am not sure that We have the
right to levy Il license tax in other
words for larger amount than would
be "a Just. fair and equitable compen-
satiou for the police protection which
the company is granted by the city in
the exercise of it's rights and privil-

IS NOT ENPEDIENr.

Il must also say that | do not con-
slider the ordinance to be an cNpedlent
measure except in 80 far as IL pro-
vidcs for Il tax on the street railway
company. The. officers of these other
corporations have no hesitancy III
SAYING that If they are compelled L"
pay the tax they will increase their
rates. We may be able to reduce the
millage Of taxation, but If the people
at large have tu pay the amount or
this reduction in increased water, gas,
electric light and steam heat rates,
how are they to be bcnetited'
You say that the ordinance is ille-
sal and that you are constrained to
believe that it is not altogether en-
pedenr. then why did you sign 1t:
asked the Tribune man.
II am not Il judge" replied the re-
corder. am simply layman with only
n luuimentary knowledge of the law.
| may have my own private opinion on
the legality of this ordinance, but what
good would it do for me 10 send in a
veto, Vetong it ON legal grounds?
Such a veto would have no weight. 1t
would be simply II laymanS opinion
on q subject which he does not pro-
iess to know very much about
Nov that the measure Is signed its
legality will De tested in tn" courts.
That's what the representatives OF tho
several companies say. ! should like
very much to have this whole queS-
ton threshed out in court and settled
finally. Then perhaps out OF the ruins

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
Anaconda, Aug 26.-Alderman Fred
Gangner. who created a sensation in the
city council some time ago by declaring
he was going to bring impeachment pro-
ceedings against City Attorney Sawyer,
has lost his opportunity
The grounds upon which he declared he
would proceed was the failure of the
city attorney to collect $95 from the B.,
A. & P. railroad. the amount charged up
to that corporation over its grading of
crossing over it's tracks by the pre-
. ceding administration.
The alderman fully intended to bring
the matter up at the last council session.
but sOmewhOW or other it slipped his
mind and the city prosecutor escaped.
In the meantime the management OF
the B., A. & p. became satisfied that the
sclaim was just one, after being fur
Rished with the necessary proof that the
work was performed. and on Friday
Handed Mr.. Sawyer check covering the
amount.
Saturday the check was turned over to
City Treasurer Harper, who duly receipt
ed for it. and the money IS now locked
up safely in the citys cash box

stabbed himself twice in the body just

In event of his recovery he will be sent
