Removal Declared Illegal.

Deciding that Harry T. Hagaman was
removed as secretary of the Ocean Coun-
ty Tax Board for political reasons, the
Civil Service Commission has prepared a
memorandum disappearing the action of
the board as illegal. In its investigation
the commission found that Mr.. Hagaman
had kept the records of the board badly,
and had his dismissal been based upon
that ground it would have been regarded
as justifable. At the same time the board
was held partly responsible for the meth
DDS of its secretary.
The case of Mr.. Hagaman was consid-
cred at public hearing given on June IA.
when the members of the present and
former tax board of the county were in
terrogated as to the reasons which had
prompted the election of new secretary.
In its memorandum the commission said:
"The complainant alleged that he had
on May 2. 1910, been improperly and I'M
lawfully removed from his place as Sec
rotary of the Ocean County Tax Board
for no other than political reasons. The
reply of the tax board was general de-
NAL of political motive, one member in
addition, and apparently as an after
thought after the fact. asserting that Mr.
Hagaman had not kept the records of the
board satisfactorily and had not kept
them in convenient place.
"The evidence adduced by the commits
sion showed that no complaint was ever
made against the character of MIR. Haga-
mans service prior to his dismissal. On
the contrary all three members of the tax
board as 1t existed before May 2, 1910, ex-
pressed entire satisfaction Herewith, and
so did two of three members of the pres
emit board; while the third member, des-
pite his criticism of the manner and place
of keeping the records, admitted that he
would have voted for the retention OF
Mr.. Hagaman as secretary had one of the
others also done so.
''As no lawful reason for Mr.. Haga
mans removal was alleged by the two
members of the board who voted for his
removal, and as the testimony given be
fore the commission clearly showed the
existence of political animosity agains
Mr.. Hagaman. the Civil Service Commits
sion Was led to the conclusion that II
fact the complainant was removed for po
litical reasons in violation of the civil
service law.
1.-The custom of the tax board, to cleo
its secretary for single year, has NJ
warrant in law, and does not put tina
office in the category of places having
fixed statutory term mentioned by Justic
Swayze in recent decision; and the con
tention that at the end Of such an allege,
term the place becomes vacant and ney
appointment can be made to 1t, is con
trary to law and cannot be admitted"
