Sturxis Law and Havey Amendment
are Constitutional.
Both the Sturgis law and the HAvcy
amendment thereto which imposes upon
the counties in which they operate the
payment Of the fees and expenses OF depu-
ty enforcement commissioners, are con-
stitutionai. according TO rescript drawn
by Chief-Justice Emery and handed down
Monday from the Law court.
The rescript is upon an action brought
in Hancock county BY Hon. Pascal p. Gil
more, OF Bucksport, State treasurer. against
the county Of Penobscot, the commission
ers OF which refused TO pay bills brought
against the county by the State treasurer
for endorsement within its limits by depu-
ty enforcement commissioners, . consid-
cradle part Of the work being done in the
cities Of Bangor and Brewer.
The total cost Of work by the enforce
mcut deputies in Penobscot county under
the Havcy amendment to date 10 tis, go. 20,
but not all Of this sum 10 covered in the
declaration in the suit, ~ the sction was
brought several months ago. The rescript
orders judgment for the plaintiff for the
entire sums claimed in the declaration,
and 10 entirely in favor OF the position
taken by State. The full text OF the re-
script is A. follows:
l, power long exercised by the legisia-
tire without question must be held 70 be
within its constitutional powers uniess
plainly prohibited BY some express provisions
Of the constitution.
2. The constitution does not plainly pro-
hibit the legislature from imposing upon =
county the expense OF enforcing the laws Of
the State within that county, and the power
to do 90 has been exercised 90 long without
question. 1t mnst be held to be constitu-
tionai power Of the legislature. even II other
wise questionable.
8. The constitutional provision that sherins
shall be elected by the people Of their respsc-
tive counties does not prohibit the legislature
from authorizing the governor to appoint
other officers with the powers Of the sherins
for the enforcement Of the laws Of the State
within the counties.
g. Executive officers necessarily have the
power, 80 far ~ not limited by the constitu-
ton or statute. TO determine when and what
locality within their Jurisdiction there IL
need Of the exercise OF their powers for the
enforcement OF the laws. The people and
local officers Of that locality have NO constitu-
tional nor statutory right to be heard on that
question.
S. Neither the act OF 1905, chapter "a.
popularity known IS the "stnrgis law. and
authorizing the appointment by the governor
of special officers to enforce certain laws in
any county, nor the act OF 1903. chapter 22s,
