It is he who has the power to appoint and nobody else, although he must make the appointment from among those proposed by the authorized representative of the national directorate of the party concerned. I am aware of the fight going on between two factions of the Nationalist Party in Cavite, which grew out of the last election for members of the National Assembly. All the suspended mayors belong to the faction which supported the candidate opposed by the governor.
The directorate of the Nationalist Party, I am informed, in an effort to secure the cooperation of the two factions of the party in the coming plebiscite, wanted to give one inspector of election to each faction.
Since only one faction was represented in the board of election inspectors, the Party recommended that the other faction be also given representation. These facts are cited because they show the motive which prompted the governor to suspend the mayors of Cavite, Imus, and Tanza—political partisanship.
A careful examination of the statute which gives functions and powers to the provincial governor and board discloses clearly that such governor and board had no authority to pass the resolution which they did pass or to commit the act which they did commit, even conceding that the way in question was a public highway. Neither did they or either of them have the power or authority to close the alleged street for reasons of public health.
The only provisions of law respecting the powers of provincial boards which relate to public highways or public health are the following: jgc:chanrobles. It shall be the duty of the municipal treasurer to pay to the provincial treasurer such sum or sums as may be assessed against the municipality by virtue of the provisions of this section.
There appears nothing in these provisions which confers the powers necessary to warrant the action of the provincial board in the case at bar. On the other hand, it is evident from the statutes that the municipal council has exclusive jurisdiction over streets found within the limits of the municipality which they represent and said council is empowered to regulate the construction, care and use of streets, sidewalks, wharves and piers in the municipality; to prevent and removed obstacles and encroachments upon the same and declare and abate nuisances; and to care for the health of the community.
The following are the provisions of law giving the municipal council authority to act in the case at bar: jgc:chanrobles.
He shall receive a salary of not more than four thousand pesos per annum, payable monthly by the provincial treasurer of Cavite out of insular funds. There shall likewise be appointed in a similar manner an assistance chief of police for the municipality of Cavite, whose duties shall be similar to those of the chief of police, and who shall, in the absence or incapacity of the latter, act in his stead. The assistance chief of police shall receive compensation at the rate of not more than three thousand two hundred pesos per annum, payable monthly by the provincial treasurer of Cavite out of insular funds.
The only provisions of law giving the provincial board control over the municipal council are the following: jgc:chanrobles. Each act, resolution, and ordinance of the council shall be numbered consecutively throughout the calendar year; each executive order shall also be consecutively numbered.
