 The Board of the National Rife As, sociation at it's recent meeting took decisive action as to the national rife match this year, the most important of which was the change of place from Sea Gfrt, N.

Great Slaughter of Deer.

The greatest deer hunt on record in Canada was that in the wllds of On- tario in the open season in last Novem- Der. From the latest returns received by the Grand Trunk Railway system, the lines of which tap the best terri tory in the province for fish and game. It appears that the hunters had the fullest measure of success. In the if teen days of the open season of 1898 the Canadian Express Company alone transported 3lO0 carcasses of deer, having an aggregate weight of 31S,- 215 pounds. all of these being shipped from points on the northern and Otta- wa divisions of the Grand Trunk.

The following statement will illustrate the conditions, and the efforts made to move trafte.
 On Thursday. January 31 1907 there had accumulated at Boyles, Ala, Sir mingham), 767 loaded cars destined to Decatur and beyond. In addition, there South and to points on and reached via the various branches of the South and North Alabama Railroad and It's con- nections. Of the 767 cars. 407 were which had originated at local points in Alabama, and, in addition, 124 carloads of miscellaneous property. During the twelve oI hours ending; say at ,h,r3te 9cloea freight trains were dispatched from Boy1es for Decatur and beyond, contain ing about 4T5 cars. These trains were run in addition to the numerous passen- ger trains and the southbound freight trains. Considering the character or the road. which IS exceedingly difficult, the curvature and grades eQualling one % the mile. I doubt if there exists an- other piece of single track road of that character over which as many trains were moved in the same time. The quantity of trafffc moved would be ex- ceedingly small for the great traffic lines with two and four tracks. with grades of but three-tenths per cent, or sixteen feet to the mile, where the same engines move from four to five times as much tonnage as can be moved over this difiucult road. Notwithstanding the, under the circumstances. large movement. there were on hand at 2 o'clock a. m., Monday, February 4, ef1 loaded cars at Boyles. destined to De- catur and beyond.
 Does not the foregoing snow conc1u- sively that a suspension of effort for twenty-four hours In each week will add greatly to the embarrassment of all concerned-carriers and patrons?

 The bill before the Legislature re- ducing railroad passenger fare to two and one half cents has passed the Sen ate and will no doubt meet no obstacle in the House. Of course, it will re- ceive the Governors approval. The whole country. 1t seems. Is about to inaugurate a crusade against the rail- roads. The Governor of Michigan recom- mends the enforc ement of a maximum two cent passenger rate h that State So does the Governor of Missouri and the Governor of Indiana for those States. The Governor of North Caro- lima urges a two and one-half cent rate for that State, and Governors who are not urging lower railroad rates are urging higher railroad taxation or clos
