The com missioner of Internal revenue , recently addressed a letter to the first comp- trollur of the treasury requesting his oplu inn on certain soctlona of the tax and tariff not , "as to whether the act of Itself , or in connootlon with exist ing laws , operates as an appropriation of money necessary to pay clalmu which may be presented for rebate on tobaco. " The commissioner observes that the law provides the rebate to manufacturers may be paid in stamps at a reduced rate , and enquires whether it was the intention of con gress to treat dealers in manufactured tobacco less generously than the manufacturers. Comptroller Lawrence to-day re plies In substance that he is certain the recently enacted tax and tariff aot does not make appropriation for pay ment in money of any sums found duo. The aot waa in no way an ap propriatioa aot for payment of money. The act provides that such rebate to manufacturer ! may be paid in stamps , but this does not extend to dealers , and it shows that the attention of congress was called to the subject of payment of rebates but no equivalent provision for any payment lu money , from all of which the inference arises that none was Intended to bo provided In this act. "An appropriation cannot arise by Inference without very oloar and explicit terms requiring It. The act ia explicit in declaring its pur poses in express terms , without giving it construction by Inference when none la declared in terms. It wjn passed on the 3d if March. It ia a matter ot history that its pasajgo was doubtful until the last action of congress gross In relation to it , and It was then too late to make a epirato appropria tion.

It appears that certain parties opposed to the removal of the capital From Yankton have been denouncing the action of the- legislature and the governor. It is charged that it is a ichemo by which the governor and in dividual members of the legislature , through the commission , pro pose to enrich themselves by buying up or entering the lands for miles around the alto of the new capl < tel build ine , which * to suit 'tholr pur poses better , they will locate on the prairie away from any railroad. Those charges come from the people ol Yankton und certain railroads , and have reached the oars of the president and secretary of the interior ; but As sistant Secretary Joslyn , said to day that the department had no authority over the act of the territorial legisla ture providing for the removal.

"How are your ranges operated ) " "We place our cattle out on the ranges where the grata la good , and leave them In charge cf men in winter who look after them and see that they do not drift. But wo are in a moun- toluons country , and natural protec tion ia afforded on the winter ranges for onr cattle , ard wo do not ex perience the same difficulties they dc on the plains to the south. There they drift before a storm , sometimes from the Platte to the Arkansas , and often cross the Arkansas. Hero they seek protection under cover of neigh boring bnttes or bluffj and it requires but little service to control them. But little expense ia incurred for the pay of men and the haying of horses for nse on the ranges. Of course , horses kept about the ranch for thin purpose must bo fed , when they might thrive on the native grastei , oared on the ground , if they were free on tbo ranges like the cattle , but it waa not found necessary this season. We are always prepared for emergencies of this kind. The raUlog of horses is also coming to be quite an industry in this country. Thuy rf qalro but little attention , running loosu on the ranges all winter and coming in in good con dition in the spring. The knynso oan rustle arond and uncover hla feed from two feet of snow. Hla hoof ia oven better adapted to pawing off the snow than the fleer. The fact -is , there isn't half the risk In * ranging horses there is in oattlo , and loss in cattle than In sheep.

You may take an ox and put him In a manger and food him this hay , and ho will make hotter beef and ba ready for the market sooner than a stoar stall fed In the states , and Its nutritive quality will build up the skehton of a horse quicker than oata or any other food.
