Tho other was tfent to the appraisers stores. This woman like a j;reat many more who will arrive here within a short time believed that the nw tariff act in no way interfered with the bringing of these articles of adornment. "Naturally there must be a line drawn, and we expect that the treasury department will within a short time inform us just how to proceed in such cases. It will be our aim to enforce the law with as little inconvenience to the public us possible."
