For the payment of inspection fees in cases of this character there is abundant precedent. The national banks now are required to pay the cost of their own examinations. Te same is true of renovated butter. steamboat inspection. the immigration head tax. and other cases that might be mentioned. Mr. Speaker. if the rule under which we are proceeding here allowed it. the minority would offer an amendment to the last paragraph of this bill that would cover this case completely and would make this bill. in my humble judgment. about as perfect a measure as human skill and human ingenuity can make it.
