keen disappointment to its promot-
ers. 1t was thought that by this
method the cost to the states of
training and sending rifle teams to
the national matches would be so re-
duCedthat mora states would be in
duced to send rifle teams to the COM
petitions. but actual results have
shown the fallacy of this argument
The matches OF Division A which
We're held at Sea Girt. n. j.. have
just come to an end OF the 10
states composing this division. only
five sent teams to this match. In
Division B. in which the southern
states are grouped, it is expected that
all but South Carolina will be rep
resented at the matches to be held
at Jacksonville. Fla. in October
There will be no matches held In
Division c, comprising the states of
ohio. Michigan, Indiana. Illinois.
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, North
Dakota and South Dakota. In Divi-
sion D. composing the states of Mis-
scuri. Kansas, Louisiana, Nebraska,
Arkansas, Oklahoma. Texas. Wyom-
ing, Colorado. New Mexico and Ari-
Zona, the national matches in con-
junction with the National Rifle As
sociation matches will! be held the
first week In October. but only the
states of Arizona. Indiana and Kan
sas will participate. These matches
will be held at Fort Riley. Kan. In
Division l., whicn includes the states
of Montana. Idaho, Utah, Nevada,
California, Oregon, Washington and
the Territory of Hawaii, no matches
will be held, as only two states, Cali
fornia and Oregon. were Interested.
The failure of the divisional shoot
proposition will undoubtedly cause
the return to the annual matches at
one central point. but unless legis-
lation Is secured to cqualizc the cost
-, of the states In sending teams. 1t is
more than probable that interest will
wanc until the national matches will
become a farce. This will be most
. unfortunate In view of the stimula-
/ tion which the holding of these
matches has given to rifle shooting
, in this country Under the present
, law an oncrous burden falls upon
those states located farthest away
from the range where the matches
are held and in many cases this
burden falls upon small and finan-
icially weak states that can not af-
. ford to carry such a burden. 1t has
been recommended by the secretary
,of war and by the national board
for the promotion of rifle practice
that congress make lump appro-
priution to cover the cost of trans.
portatiOn OF all teams to the national
matches and thereby remove the un-
, equal burden now imposed through
the method of charging this expense
against the states federal appropria-
tion for militia purposes.
