Since our ideas of Gods nay of

No human experience Of public justice

SELLING GOVERNMENT RIFLES.

Under the provisions OF an act OF
congress, approved March 3. 1906. the
secretary of war is authorized to sell
to civilian rife clubs such magazine
rifles belonging to the United States
as are not needed for the equipment
of the army and the organized militia.
acquisitions for the same must come
tnrough the governors OF the several
states and territories. The secretary
of war Is also authorized to sell 10 such
clubs ammunition, ordnance stores. re-
yolvers and equipments Of the govern
ment standard at the prices at which
they are listed for the army. Frequent
inquiries are received at the war de-
partment as to the methods to be pur-
sued In organizing civilian rifle clubs
which may secure the advantages men
toned. Such clubs may be formed
by not less than twenty citizens be-
tween the ages OF is and 45 In any
locality, to be organized by adopting
certain bylaws approved by the sec
retary of war Among these bylaws
is one to the effect that all rife and
revolver competitions held by the club
will be governed by the rules and regu-
lations as laid down by the National
Board of Promotion of Rifle Practice"
and approved by the secretary Of war.
After organization the club affliates
with the National Rifle Association OF
America and becomes member OF
the third class. The fees for such
clubs are $40. which covers the first
years dues and IS a year thereafter.
All civil an rifle clubs, having less
than hfty members, are entitled to one
vote AT all meetings of the National
R.iAe association and those having
more than fifty members are entitled
TO two votes.

The plans OF the company as an

mercial rate is about S1.05 word for
messages between Rio de Janeiro and
New York City, with charges for other
points In proportion. One of the most
unsatisfactory phases of the matter is
the fact that this high rate. and other
rates proportional for other services,
make impossible such an interchange
