THE TARGET RANGE.
About the Expense.

The advertisement of the chief quarter
master for offers of sites for an artillery
and rifle target range has been re-
sponded to by the offer of seven
sites. That there are seven land
owners within 80 miles of San Antonio,
who are willing to have a company
of artillery practice with solid shot from
rifled guns within their enclosures or in
their neighborhood is proof of the readi
ness of our people to help Uncle Sam
out. In the Express military
column the statement is made that
lit was found that the bids of some of
the sites were so high that they will pro-
baby not be considered" AS the adver-
tiSement did not require that cheapneSS
should be the controlling consideration,
those parties who had splendid target
ranges, situated within valuable tracts
of land calculated the cost and damage in
making their bids.
One of the offers made, by Mr.. C..
SchasSe, and from all the deScrip-
ton given it would make an
ideal target range; a secluded
valley in the midst of lofty hills only
used for grazing, room to maneuver over
miles of ground, the possibility of target
range of six or seven miles; the
owners license to play war, ad libertum.
This spot is the nearest one offered,
thus making a great saving TO the gov
eminent, for transportation OF troops and
supplies, if supplied from San Antonio.
Mr.. Schasse offers this site at rental
OF $500 per annum, which it seems to us
would be cheaper to Uncle Sam than any
site offered fifty miles away.
The site is within two hours travel OF
the city.
When the inspecting officer visits this
site he will surely regret that Uncle Sam
is so badly off that he can't pay for a first
class article, but be content with what he
can get for the least money.
