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. .
