said.
The conditions on the ellowstone
for stock growing were never more

While there Is still deep snow east and
north of the Missouri there Is none

there has been none for many days.
The blutfs aud buttes furnish fine

TOBACCO TAX AND REBATES.
WASHINGTON, March 90. The com.
missioner of internal revenue, recently
addressed letter to the first comp.
troller of the treasury requesting his
opin ion on certain sections of the tax
and tariff act, ''as to whether the act
of itself, or in connection with exist
Ing laws, operates as an appropriation
of money necessary to pay claims
which may be present for rebate on
tobacco" The commissioner observes
that the law provides the rebate to
manufacturers may be paid In stamps
at reduced rate, and eng hires
whether 1t was the intention of con.
gress to treat dealers In manufactured
tobacco less generously than the
manufacturers.
Comptroller Lawrence to-day re-
plies In substance that he is certain
the recently enacted tax and tariff act
does not make appropriation for pay
ment in money of any sums found
due. The act was In no way an ap
preparation act for payment of money.
The act provides that such rebate to
manufacturers may be paid in stamps,
but this does not extend to dealers,
and 1t shows that the attention of
congress was called to the subject of
payment of rebates but no equivalent
provision for any payment III money,
from all of which the inference arises
t,.<a lal 10 ha Il lnI
In this act. can appropriation
cannot arise by Inference without very
clear and explicit terms requiring 1t.
The act is explicit in declaring Its pur-
poses in express terms, without giving
1t construction by inference when
mono ia declared In terms. 1t was
