|MPOR TANT TO
LIQUOR DEALERS

An important decision has just been
made by R F. Cabnl, commissioner
of internal revenue, which will lead
10 a more rigid enforcement of the
revenue law In the future. In the past
1t has always been incumbent upon
q liquor dealer. when he emptled a
barrel or package of liquor OF any
kind which required q government
stamp, to destroy that stamp. This
is the law, but the statute goes fur
ther than this and makes IL impera-
tive upon the dealer to obllterate not
only the stamp. but all marks and
brands on the barrel or package. This
latter provision has always been in
the law, but 1T has not been enforced.
and the order just issued from the
treasury department by Commission
er Cabal Is that the provisions Of the
statute be strictly enforced In every
particular and detail In the future,
SO that a further duty deyolves upon
the liquor dealer now. The marks
ard brands, beside the stamp, re-
ferred to, include the dato of lnspec-
ton of the liquor, name OF the Off
