ment Surrey is entirely unnecessary, it may be pointed out that the inconvenience and expense which it will involve is. here considerably anderestimated. The Government Surveyor, in order to satisfy himself, will require a good deal more to be done than would be considered sufficient by D- other skilled man who is familiar with 1.75 the particular boiler which he inspects. A plan of the boiler will, on doubt, ba waited in the first instance, and that. 2.50 will mean au outlay of something like $25 in addition to the rifling fee re- ferred to And if the Government Surveyor should think it incumbent on bim, from a red-tape point of view, to reduce the steam pressure teen or 0.76 twenty per cent, of course the speed: of the launch would be diminished to that exfeat. Had the requirement. simply been a survey of new boilers, in- which case the Governcient Surveyor. would be able to satisfy himself without 1.00 much trouble to anybody, it might be accepted without grumbling, but as if is, not only is an unnecessary obligation imposed but it is imposed in the most annoying way.
