Chief Justice Binguam, in aunouncing the opin- fon of the court, said these regulations were based on the act of Congress approved January 25, 1881, authorizing the employment of an inspector of Plumbing, and investing the health officer with autuority, under the direction of the Commission- ers, lo execute and enforce tions governing pluinbing, ouse drainage, and che ventilation of Olle Se Wers, and providing penalties to be tmposed upon persons neglecting or retustag to comply with such regulations wien promulgated.

The first objection to the regulations of April Jast was that the Commissioners had no power to make such regulations, tne health officer belug by the act of Jatuary 25, 1881, exclusively empow- ered to make them. "The Court held, however, that as the health officer can omy execute and enforce such r-gulations as the Co.umissioners direct, the Commissioners must first direct wht the re'sulations shail be. ‘The court, therefore, did Hot sustain this objection. ‘The ottier point made by the petitioners was tbat, conceding that the power to make such {tons resided in tne Comuissioners, the reguiat ons in quesuon are in excess of thelr legal autnority, and thereiore void. ‘The ‘court was” not, the Chief Justice said, tmuntndful of tne gravity of the quesiton betore It. ‘The regulation of p.umbing in its relations to the health of the comimunity undoubtedly called for the W.se exercise of all the powe} nd by the municipal wuthoriues. Ou the Oiler hand the TisLsof citizens could not be invaded. He quoted auuorities to suow that muntctpal corporations Only powessed such powers of regulation as wor: 1 cessary Uo enforce powers specifically grant by 1aw, and that an order canuot be made to con- travené common law. ‘THE EXAMINATIONS UNWARRANTED. The Chiet Justice then summarized the require- ments preseribd by the new regulations as neces- sary before a plumber could be registered, and sald that the scheme to test the qualifications of a piumber was not warranted by tue act of January 25, 1881, autuorizin the appointment of an 1n- 5, ecvor of plumpin .,£c, Tue court’seonstruction of Uhis act Was that the regulitions authorized by it applied, not to the pluinbers themselves, but to tue work done by the plumbers, or, in other words, it was{oteuded tosecure good pluunbing.
