But. as the courts will not accept them as such, demanding n certificate as tu tneir authen¬ ticity from tlie Secretary of the Tieasury under ihc great seal of thu department in every ease/it would seem thai the law ought to be so amended us to permit too signature to lie pinned nidi tlie regulations.

Ono other suggestion, based upon actual experience, Is worth noting.
