The American Rifle Team weI

The American Rifle Team we're near
losing the international match, owing
to defective bullets. Colonel Wingate
said to a reporter of the New York
Post: 1.-THE Americans shot closer than
did any other team, but lost ground on
account of their misses. 1t is the opin-
ion among rifemen that the cartridge
manufacturers were not careful enough
in making the bullets used by us, and
that occasionally one of these bullets
being a little hard on one side, did not
expand enough to fill the groves, conse'
quently there was a loss of powder, and
the bullet dropped before 1t reached
the target. We shot better, but got
more misses than we should have got.
Allen, for example, made twelve BULBS
eys, but his thirteenth shot was myster-
iously a miss. We believe that our rifles
were superior, but our bullets inferior
to those of the foreign teams"

Charslfs O'COnnor's opinion Of TiIden.

A gentleman of means and unswerv-
ing Democracy, living ON New York
Bay, desired to secure from Governor
Tilden a position by appointment, under
an act of the Legislature, Of ashore
Inspector for Kings county and to aid
him he asked for a letter from his friend
O'Connor to the Governor. Charles o.
Connor replied substantially as follows:
II would be willing to help you II !
could. OF course, 1 have been associat-
ed with Tilden in what may be called
the reform movement, and have acted
as counsel with him; but 1 can have no
influence with him to secure political
favors. You know / am a Democrat
from expediency. 'INew York CONNER

"Buffalo Bill, the famous scout, has
returned to his home in Rochester.
While holding to his own ideas of the
proper way to conduct the war against
the Indians, he doesn't presume to crit
icise the Generals in command. He
comes nearest to it,perhaps, when point
ing out a difference between General
Crook and General Terry. When in
camp on the creek, the headquarters of
the two men were on opposite banks,
General Crook" says Bill, ''slept on
his blankets, made his own coffee and
broiled his own bacon. General Terry
had a bed brought with him, a portable
range and an extension table. We
could not travel fast enough to catch the
Indians,a as we would break the Dishes"

That's SOL But the Democratic party
says: BE blind owls; sit on the dry
limb OF q dead tree, and only hoot when
Tilden ~ Co. tell you t0.r Laughter.
In the Republican party there are no
followers. We are all leaders. lCheefs.
There is not a party chain There Ii
not a party lash. Any man that does
not love this country, any man thai
does not love liberty, that is not in favor
of human progress, that is not in favor
of giving to others all he claims for him
self-we don't ask him to vote the re-
publican ticket. Cheers You can
vote it if you please, and if there be any
Democrat within hearing who expects
to die before another election we are
willing that he should vote one Republi-
can ticket, simply as aconsolation upon
his death-bed. lGreat laughter.
