The Adulteration Act
«. At the next sittings of the Borough Council it will be necessary for the question to be considered on its merits of appointing an Inspector under the Adulteration Prevention Act, which comes into force to-day. The frequent complaints that have from time to time reached us from various independent sources, have shown how necessary such an officer is undfr existing circumstances. We are opposed to multiplying Municipal offices under any ordinary circumstances, but here it is almost imperative. Without an Inspector the Act would be practically inoperative in the Borough. It is provided that every local authority may appoint one or more officers of poliee, or any other person or persons to be Inspector for the purposes of the Act. The Borough has therefore the option of either appointing the local constable, one of its present employes, or of making a new appointment. The best plan would be to appoint the local constable. This would huve the advantage of economy, and we believe the duties of the office would be carried out with as much'satisfaction to all parties as their somewhat delicate nature would allow of.
