to amalgamate with that of Chief Detective Inspector. The salary

of Inspector of Weights and Measures is $240 per annum, and the

An incentive will, I think, also be held out by the

creation of the new appointment to others to educate themselves

with a view to succeeding to the Chief Detective Inspectorship hereafter.
