They make an arrangement with a railroad company in regard to the collection and payment of the head tax. for example. so as to prevent the delay of the trains and to arrange for any of the details. It is the desire of the railroad and steamship companies to be allowed to make those arrangements. They take the responsibility in the case of railroads. and by making arrangements with the Government they are enabled to do it in a much more speedy and better fashion. There is no need of makmg an arrangement with a vessel coming into port. You have it all there on one ship. and it is going to stay a week. but with a passing train it is very important to be able to make an arrangement with the company.
