The accidental shooting of Mr. Woody
by his companion while out hunting last
week is another warning against the UM*
of the long range rifns by hunters. The
Savage rifle with which Mr. Woody- was
killed will easily carry a ball three miles
and the improved Winchester, Krug-Jor­
gensen and several other guns will carry
as far, while the new arm» Springfield
rille will kill a man at live miles. With
one of these long-range ritli-s a hunter on
n hillside could shoot at a deer and kill a
person tn the valley below three or four
miles away. At such a distance thejxr-
soii hit would have no knowledge as to
when- the bullet came from or who shot
it. for the distance would lx* so great that
no report could be heard. The only way
to secure, safety to the towns and farms
in the valleys of Southern Oregon where
game and hunters are so numerous each
fall is to have the law prohibit tin use of
guns carrying a ball over two thousand
yards. This is as far as game can ordi­
