WILL TEST The

Appointment By

from Office.
UNCONSTITUTIONAL SAYS N DERMOTT
from Office.

The Democratic Elective Excise Board,
which was legislated out of office, have
for some time been contemplating the
testing of the eonstitutionality of the
new appoiEtive Excise Board. An opin-
ion was requested Of Congressman Allen
McDermott. Here is Mr.. McDermott's s
opinion
Jersey City, April Is. 1908.
TO the Board Of Excise Commissioners:
Gentlemen opinion is asked of
the validity of Senate Bill No. 24S, re
Gently enacted, and purporting to provide
for the creation of Boards of Excise Com
missioners in cities of the first class. The
title of the act expresses its object to be
to the constituting of Boards of Excise
Commissioners, and this is to be done
under sections one and four. Section
one provides that the Mayor shall ap-
point Board of Excise Commissioners,
to consist of four persons, who shall
serve ..for the term of two years and un-
til their successors shall be appointed. .
Section four reads
a Two members of said Board of
Excise Commissioners shall be selected
and appointed from the political party
which, at the election for Mayor in such
city last preceding such appointment cast
the largest number of votes for Mayor,
and two from the political party which
at said election cast the next largest
number of votes for Mayor
Tnder this act all citizens of Jersey
City who do not belong to either the
Democratic or Republican party are dis
qualified from holding the office of Excise
Commissioner. If this can be constitu-
fienally enacted, the power of the Legis-
lature is so boundless that it may be or
dained that all municipal appointments
shall be made from the party which had
the largest following at the last Presi-
dental election. The constitution of our
Stale does not establish any qualifca-
tion for municipal officers, and the Legis-
lature is therefore entitled to deal with
the question with rather free hand; but,
as the constitution does secure manhood
suffrage, it seems clear that the Legisla-
ture cannot attach a penalty to any man
ner Of exercising that suffrage. The Leg
islatnre cannot establish arbitrary rules
of exclusion. and a statutory provision
that selection for any department of the
public service shall be confined to one or
any other number of political parties is,
in my Judgment, absolutely void. The
question has not been passed upon in our
courts, but it has received adjudication
in other States. Two illustrations will
suffiee
In Attorney General Y. Detroit, So
Michigan, 213, the question was fully
considered, and a law requiring that a
board of four officers should be chosen,
two and two. from each of the two lead
ing political parties, was held to be un-
eonstitutional and void, because it ex-
cluded the members of all other parties.
Chief Justice Moore there said: :-"1f the
Legislature has power to require that
these offices shall be filed by members
