Costly Fees.

A permit costing one dollar is re- 1uired for all drainage and sewerage. extending or altering old or new work, except repairs in leaks of pipes. Alp. plications for such permits must be filed in the inspectors office before 9 a. m. or 1. p. m.
 In cases of repairs of soil, waste, vent or water pipes, if 1t is necessary to remove or replace material, the dol lar permit is necessary.
 A fee of one dollar Is charged for inspection of work done. If the work is not ready when the inspector is mo- tifed he may charge dollar "per visit" until he finally passes on same.
 A separate permit is required for each and every excavation. Hunting for a leak under such conditions might be an expensive pastime.
 The laying of sewer pipec may be done by competent men under the di. rection of licensed plumbers. The in. spector is the judge of the compe- tency of these men and may order them removed.
 Means $1oo,ooo.
 Plunger closets, pan closets or Phil adelphia hoppers are hereafter prohib- tied, and shall, on the order of the inspector, be removed and tank closets substituted. There are up ward of 2,500 of such closets in the city, and the cost of the substitution provided for is conservatively esti- mated at $100,0O0.
 These are only few of the objec- tionable features of the ordinance. The inconvenience and expense which it's operation would entail upon the citizens of Birmingham, especially in times of freezing weather, have al- ready suggested themselves to the in- telligent reader.
 Whom Does 1t Benefit7 The ordinance is certainly not in the interest of the people. It is hard ship upon labor in general, for the renter must share in the additional expense laid upon the landlord. And the workingman who owns his home Is subject to it's onerous exactions. It is a pertinent query whether the measure is in the interest even of the Master Plumbers and the Journeymen Plumbers union as bodies.
 The enactment of the ordinance would seem to be impossible. But, on account of it's artful verbiage, and the careful separation of its reprehen- sible features, such thing might happen. Realty calls the attention of the board to the ordinance. Citizens who recognize it's abuses should exert strong influence upon members of the board to secure it's defeat. ulletin" will be resumed next Sunday.

THE ORD|NACE
 IS OUTRAGEOUS
The Proposed Measure to Regulate Plumbing is Full of ReprehensibIe Features Some of Them Pointed Out to the Public.

It is difficult to conceive of more oppressive measure than the ordi- nance now pending in the City Coun- Gil to create the office of plumbing in- spector, to govern plumbing and drain age and to provide for the inspection of same in public and private prop erty and buildings Tn Birmingham.
 The ordinance is lengthy and very sinuous. It is a succession of verbal woodpiles, in each of which turks a "nigger"-and a costly "nigger."
 The caption creates a plumbing in- spector In the body of the ordinance he is called the chief plumbing in spector. The inference is there are to be other inspectors, elected and paid out of the city treasury. It would be unreasonable to require one man to turn all tn screws provided for by the ordinance.
 The inspector has supervision of all plumbing and house drainage in the city He Is judge of the material and workmanship and the contracting of the ordinance. He has jurisdiction of all work from the main sewer of the street to the roof joint.
 A "close Corporation"
 Associated with him are a master plumber and a journeyman plumber. They constitute the board of examin- CTS. No persons are allowed to install range boilers, make connections there to, or make repairs of any descrip- tion on the water service or sanitary connections of a building or residence except such as are licensed by this board. Engineers of buildings, or firemen, or porters, or general work men around hotels. factories, etc., are specifically debarred from making re- pairs of the most trifing kind. The assumption is that the skilled me chanic-the plumber even, unless he has a license from the board-cannot make repairs in his own home.
