The clean sweep Of matches. both individual
and team, made by the Georgia marksmen has
caused some dissatisfaction among the sbarp.
ehooters from tho other States represented at
Ing meethg. Gen. Spencer said this afternoon:
oct Is very likely that thos New Jersey State
fane association will handicap the best sharp
ohootern who will compete in the matches next
year. Unless this 10 done there will be a great
8eaI OF trouble. Every ono will admit that the
Sooreia shooters have an advantage over the
Northern marksmen. They have a good range
inc. Tltn perfect weather all the year round.
