The commissioner of internal reven- ue announces : ‘‘The law makes it the duty of every railroad, steamboat com- pany, carrier, express company or cor- poration, or person whose occupation it is to act as such, to issue to the ship- per, consigner or his agent, or person from whom any goods are accepted for transportation, a bill of lading, mani- fest, or some other evidence of the re- ceipt of goods received for transporta- tion, and this bill of lading, manifest, or memorandum, requires a revenue stamp of the value of one cent affixed to it and cancelled. In case of failure to issue such bill of lading the law im- poses a penalty of $50 upon the carrier found guilty of such failure. The pen] alty for failure to so affix the stamp is not more thang $100. “The purpose of the law is clear. It was to tax the earrier and not the ship- per, and these provisions undoubtedly fix upon the express companies and other carriers the duty of providing, aflixing and eanecelling the atamp, and their failure to so provide, affix and cancel such stamp subjects them to the penalties provided by law. It is suggested that some of these carriers are refusing to receive goods for ship- ment until the shippers pay the tax. B,D . City of Living Skeletons.
