The Tax ON Expre.s Receipt..

In the case of the stamp required to be
affixed to an express receipt or bill of
lading given by an express or railroad
company or other common carrier 1t is
held by the commissioners of internal re-
venue to be clearly evident that if an eX-
press company or other carrier accepts
goods for transportation it must issue to
the consignor a bill of lading or receipt
duly stamped and the stamp Cancelled.
If such company or carrier refuses to ac-
cept goods offered for transportation ex-
cept on condition that the cOnsignor shall
pay the price of the stamp in addition to
the regular charge for the service per-
formed or proposed TO be performed, the
internal revenue laws afford no remedy.
