FINES TO GO
TO THE STATE
Game Wardens VIII, No Longer
Get Amount of the
Penalty.

CHARLESTON. Jan. 22.-In an
opinion written by Judge Henry Bran
non and concurred in by other mem.
bers OF the supreme court of appeals
section 2974 of the annotated code OF
1906. providing that fines accruing
from prosecution Instituted by deputy
fish and game wardens shall go to
these officials was declared unconsti-
tutlonal. because of its glarlng con-
hict with the constitution of West
Virginia
The opinion OF the court was hand
ed down in the case of the State vs.,
Dobert Perkins. from Monongalia
county and the judgment fthe low
or court was affirmed, Bennett S.
White as deputy game and fish
warden caused the INDICTMENT and
conviction of Robert Parkins In the
courts of Monongalia county for un-
lawfully killing Virginia quail and
caused several fines to be paid into
the circuit court of that county.
White then filed a petition in the cir
cult court claiming the fines for his
services as deputy warden. but the
court denied his right to the fine
money and directed the fines to be
paid to the sheriff to be accounted for
to the state treasury.
One of the statutes of West Virgin
ia provides that deputy fish and
game arden shall receive for his
services ,the fines accruing from such
prosecution as may be Instituted by
them. but no money shall be paid
them out of the treasury of the state.
Section 2974 of the code of 1906 gives
the money to White in this instance.
but section s, article II; of the West
Virginia constitution says: :.'The leg
islature shall provide for the support
of free schools by appropriating
thereto the net proceeds OF all for
FIXTURES and fines according to the
state under the laws thereof" The
constitution commands that the fine
money go to the support of the free
schools, while the act is directly to
the reverse divertIng the money from
the free schools and giving them en-
tire to the deputy game wardens-a
glaring conflict,
Judge Brannon in his syllabus,
says:
That the provisions of the Acts Of
1901. chapter 93. annotated code of
1905. section 2s74, giving deputy fish
and game wardens all fines accruing
from prosecutions instituted by them
for violations of the game and fish
laws, is unconstitutional.
In order to entitle an informer or
person prosecuting to any part of a
fine imposed upon any conviction un-
der Indictment his name as such must
be endorsed on or written at the
foot Of the indictment before it is
presented to the grand jury"
The effect of the decision which de-
clares the statutes through which the
deputies are remunerated for their
services, unconstitutional. will seri-
ously hamper the enforcement Of the
game and fish laws as set out by
Game and Fish Warden Marcum in
his last annual report to Secretary of
State swisher.
