TREASURY WARRANTS
Mississippi has issued treasury
notes, an egtect imitation of the
Treasury or national bank notes,
and as the law against making any¬
thing In the similitude of obliga¬
tions authorized by the government
is explicit, there is only one. thing
to be done end that is to enforce it.
The treasury officials do not
question the right of the state to
issue warrants, their only conten¬
tion being that the warrants must
not be printed in imitation of the
United States notes.
Chief Maxen of the secret service
has seized the plates from which
these note» were printed and
trouble is expected.
Several other states, it is claimed
have been id the habit of itffuing
these warranty and no question
haabeen raised,
In hard timea« hereafter, if Gov
erner Stone wins, any state can
easily relieve the stringency by
printing a few hundred thousand
dollars worth of these notes. .

though there is groat unrest and
trouble throughout the wept and
