These eight appeals were taken from orders of the Court of Quarter Sessions of Westmoreland County refusing to allow appeals from judgments and sentences imposed by the mayor of the City of Jeannetté on summary convictions for violations of ordinance No. 60 of said city, duly enacted March 21, 1898. This ordinance forbids the sale of goods, wares, and merchandise of any kind within said city, by canvassing or soliciting, unless the person so canvassing or soliciting has first procured a license to transact said business, and paid the license fee required.
