Northwest Sportsmen to Meet at
Walla Walla This Year.
A walla walla news item says:

A Walla Walla news item says:
Word was received yesterday by j
F. Smalls, secretary of the North
west Sportsmen's association, from
Elmer f. Shaner Pittsburg. secre-
tary and manager of the national
sportsmen's organization, In which
assurances were given that Walla
walla would be made an auxiliary OF
the great American handicap shoot
Mr.. Smalls has set the date for
the meeting here as May ~, 13 and
IA. These dates were determined up
on in order that there might be no
conflict with various state shoots
that eastern gun men might be de-
sirous of entering.
Owing to excessive expenses in
cuIhed, the Pacific coast handicap
will be abolished this year. The last
handicap was held last year at Spo-
kane and attracted many experts from
various parts of the country A less
rangement is proposed as a substi-
tute for the Pacific coats handicap,
this being series of state and local
shoots.
The arms and powder companies
who are back of the contests, it is
figured, can send representatives
around the circuit almost as cheaply
as they can send them to one meet
ing, while the returns in benefits to
them will be greater
So far the circuit will consist of a
state meet in Montana, another at
Boise, the Walla Walla meeting and
state meet at Salt Lake City.
