WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

Every well-regulated city govern
ment has its inspector of weights
and measures, and it is right that it
should. We need such an officer
here in Canton-we need one badly
and we trust that our city fathers
will see that VIC have one. AS mat
tiers now stand the purchaser
has no protection against fraudu-
lent or faulty scales and measures !;
he is Mt the mercy Of the dealer, and
must abide by his weight and meas
ure. We suggest that it be made
the duty Of the City Marshal to in
spect, once a month, all scales and
and certify to their cor
rectness, the dealer to pay for said
certificates, o reasonable fee. Let
the Marshal have power at any time
to examine scales and measures,
and if he fiRds them fraudulent. let
him arrest the owner thereof, and
upon the conviction of the latter,
give half tho fine collected to the
o6cer for his fee. No honest MGR
chant or brakeman will object to
his, but in fact, would rejoice at
the existence of such q law, while
dealers will be made to suf-
fer for their rascaIity. Let US have
IN inspector of weights and meas
urea
