 DOING GOOD WORK
Good Reports Are Expected From the Shooting Team at Camp Perry.

Though Colonel J. H. McClintOck has been back From Camp BTodie for a couple of days, the national guard news of which he was possessed has not hitherto been published The camp which was established this year for the sole purpose of trying out the marksmen in the national guard, for the selection of a team to enter the competitive shoot at Camp Perry, closed a week ago Tuesday. The following day twelve members of the shooting team, three alternates and three team officers left for Camp Perry for a week of practice shooting on the range there. previous to the be- ginning of the competitive shoot which begins next Monday. The team is in much better condition than last year for as Col Coggins says, 'The boys are now shooting more with their head and less with their eyes and fling CTS" Moreover. they are equipped with gauges glasses and other para phernalia. Last year the Arizona team ranked eleventh from the bottom in the competition, but it expects to move up at least ten places this year.

 Organization.

A correspondent of The Republican writes as follows from Buckeye: For a long time past the young men of Buckeye have wanted to organize a company and join the national guard of Arizona. An effort was made some time ago and many names secured, but for some reason the plans were not carried out. There will be a meeting to take up the matter again at 9 o'clock Saturday night, in Buckeye. The pur- pose is to adopt bylaws and both those who have already signed the pe- tition and those who have not. but are interested, are invited to attend

REVENUES FROM THE
 NATIONAL FORESTS
A Large Sum of Money is Paid Over Annually to the State Govern mentS.

1 Figures just made public by the forest service show that under the
 new law requiring 25 per cent of the
 gross proceeds of national forest
 business to be paid over to the states
 and territories in which the forests are located. to@@be used for public
 schools and rea,is, the last fiscal year will yield these states SAY, ,063. =
 79 .E'
 The amounts which go to each vary from S313.6s for Arkansas to over s75,00O for Montana. The small amount for Arkansas is because the two national forests in that state were created so recently that they have not yet got fairly under way Oklahoma, with one small national forest, receives $554; Kansas, $644; and the next smallest after these is Nebraska, with $2.35O. Since the forests in these last two states were set aside from land naturally desti- tutc of trees, that the government might try forest planting on them, it will probably surprise most people that they should yield any revenue at all.
 National forest business is chiefly of three kinds. grazing, timber sales and special uses; the latter compris- ing the use of the lesser resources of the forests and the permits involving the development of water power. It is interesting to note the states in which the largest volume of each of these three kinds of business is done and study the causes which make fIafr
 Montana, California and Colorado lead in timber sales. In the case of Montana and California this fact is mainly due to the accessibility of the timber in the national forests. The fact that the timber can be readily reached and quickly transported to market has created a heavy demand which is reflected in the volume of business. Colorado is almost abso- lutely dependent upon the national forest timber for it's mining opera tions. Each of these states will re- ceive over s5O,OOO from the proceeds of the forests.
 Idaho, Utah and Oregon head the list of the states in grazing business. The causes in this case are several In the first place these states are supplied with more abundant forage, largely on account of more plentiful precipitation. In some cases the ranges will support a sheep to the acre, whereas the ranges elsewhere will often support no more than one sheep from four to six acres. Again, the grazing methods are, as a rule, more intensive in those states, a higher class of herders is employed and better grade of stock is kept Management, moreover. is more in tensive. Sheep are handled in small bands, and the herders in running them are able to keep them in scat tered order so that they do not do so much damage to the range as does the large band which can be con trolled only when closely herded. ldaho's share of the receipts is over s56. 900.

Washington, April 1S.-The caucus of
Republican leaders of the house which

on account of the delay in reporting

But" said Republican Whip Watson,

have a bill 1t has been represented
that there is some doubt about these
two points, but there is none. The eau

not come for a week after the day at

Hartford Men Accused of Reckless
 Driving in Merriman Case.

Hartford, Nov. 2.-Robert G. Mer- riman, ir., died this afternoon at his home here from injuries sustained at midnight Saturday by being struck by an automobile driven by William H. Phair, with whom William c, Brain son was riding at the time.
 The automobile struck Mir. Merri- man just as he was alignting from a car at the corner of Pennington ave- nue and Lorraine street. The auto was going at what bystanders declare was an excessive rate of speed.

COMPLEXION OF CONGRESS
But Tbirty-two Reversals Necessary to Overthrow Republican Control

Washington, Nov. 2.--The comput- CTS of probable election results, of whom Washington boasts more than her quota, are not permitting the overshadowing importance of the presidential contest to cause them to close their eyes to the circumstances that new congress will come in with the new president. whoever he may be, and there is much concern re- garding its political complexion. All concede that there Is no possibility of democratic senate, but there is more room for speculation regarding the house of representatives.
 The present republican control may be reversed by changes in compara- lively few congressional districts. They are awake to the fact that even a less disastrous revolution than took place in 1906 would cause the change they fear, for the democrats then cap tured 28 districts which had been held by republicans, whereas only 32 reversals would now be necessary sto give the house to the democrats. They are exerting themselves to avert any such change
