Excerpt from The Chemical News and Journal of Physical Science, 1888, Vol. 57: With Which Is Incorporated the "Chemical Gazette" For Royal Commissioners the author does not enter tain any profound respect, considering that they are prone to ignore any evidence which does not seem likely to support their own prepossessions. As a matter of course, the Recommendations of the late Royal Rivers Pollution Commission are weighed and pronounced wanting on grounds substantially agreeing with those which have been urged from time to time in the chemical news. He points out especially the very easy manner in which all restrictions may be evaded which are founded merely on the quality of waters discharged into a river without regard to their quantity.
