this Inspection tax may not go. The
law was drawn with a view to ap-
plying 1t to factories and mills
where there was such an amount of
machinery that there was always an
element of danger. The application
of the act to empress printing es-
tabllshments is nothing more or less
than a graft. II might with just as
much justice be applied to a wind
