Ssc. 10, Act of August 2, 1886: 
That all oleomargarine imported from foreign countries shall, in 
addition to any import duty imposed on the same, pay an internal 
revenue tax of fifteen cents per pound, such tax to be represented by 
coupon stamps as in the case of oleomargarine manufactured in the 
United States. The stamps shall be affixed and canceled by the owner 
or importer of the oleomargarine while it is in the custody of the proper 
custom-house officers; and the oleomargarine shall not pass out of the 
custody of said officers until the stamps have been so affixed and can- 
celed, but shall be put up in wooden packages, each containing not 
less than ten pounds, as prescribed in this act for oleomargarine manufac- 
tured in the United States, before the stamps are affixed; and the owner 
or importer of such oleomargarine shall be liable to all the penal pro- 
visions of this act prescribed for manufacturers of oleomargarine manu- 
factured in the United States. Whenever it is necessary to take any 
oleomargarine so imported to any place other than the public stores of 
the United States for the purpose of affixing and canceling such stamps, 
the collector of customs, of the port where such oleomargarine is entered 
shall designate a bonded warehouse to which it shall be taken, under 
the control of such customs officer as such collector may direct; and 
every officer of customs who permits any such oleomargarine to pass 
out of his custody or control without compliance by the owner or 
importer thereof with the provisions of this section relating thereto, 
shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and shall be fined not less than one 
thousand dollars nor more than five thousand dollars, and imprisoned 
not iess than six months nor more than three years. Every person who 
sells or offers for sale any imported oleomargarine, or oleomargarine 
purporting or claimed to have been imported, not put up in packages 
and stamped as provided by this act, shall be fined not less than five 
hundred dollars nor more than five thousand dollars, and be imprisoned 
not less than six months nor more than two years.
