The plaintiff, for some time prior to the 31st of December, 1909, had been the licensee of a certain cockpit, in the municipality of San Juan del Monte. The defendant, at the time of the commencement of the present action, was the treasurer of the Province of Rizal. Under the municipal ordinance of said municipality, the annual license fee for maintaining and running a cockpit for the year ending December 31, 1909, was, including the internal revenue license, the sum of P1,500. The license was permitted, under the old ordinance, to pay said license fee for a period of three months at a time in advance.
