The opium for smoking purposes is
usually imported in tins. 1t is pos
sible that the pills could be prepared
for smoking purposes after importa-
ton; if so, it was an oversight to
tins only.
Presuming that the stamp tax was
applied to the item of pounds only,
the revenue from that source in 1887
would have amounted to, say, S5011.
