July 2, 1898. ] 
annual convention we have had a secession, and while I do not 
approve of attributing: any ill motives, for I am sure that the 
gentlemen who quit us are just as good sportsmen as we are, I 
should be very sorry to have this Association say we have any 
doubt of their integrity or believe that they left us from any bad 
motives. 1 can very well understand that the gentlemen who 
form the association which meets in I he winter are actuated by 
just as good motives as we are, but I woxild like to say to them — 
and I think it must occur to everybody here— that we are quite 
as good game and fish and forest protectors as they are, and that 
any" protection that has been given to the fish, game and forests 
of this State any time during the last thirty or forty years has 
been due directly or indirectly to the influence brought upon the 
Legislature and upon public opinion by the men who formed the 
old Association. Holding that belief, I have a resolution here 
to offer, and it is my opinion that if it is adopted we will take 
action here to-night that may have A much wider and more bene- 
ficial effect upon the public affairs of this State than we now an- 
ticipate. 
"Whereas. It is the settled policy of this State to give due pro- 
tection to its forests fish and game, with a view to their judicious 
preservation for all time; and, 
"Whereas, The clearing up of woodlands destroys the nest- 
ing grounds and shelter of game, thereby entailing the extermina- 
tion of fish, birds and mammals, which it is desirable to protect; 
and, 
"Whereas, The only public land now reserved by the State 
as forest preserve is mainly confined to one quarter of the State, 
whose people in other districts derive only indirect and remote 
benefit from the preserves; therefore 
"Resolved, That the State authorities should not confine their 
efforts to the establishment of forest preserves in the Adirondacks 
and Catskills alone, but ought to take measures for the founding 
of small preserves in all quarters of the State, so that: the whole 
body of people may participate in the advantages that flow from 
forest preservation ; 
"Resolved, That the respective counties of the State should be 
encouraged to promote the preservation and extension of wood- 
land by a law that would reduce the taxes on, or exempt from tax- 
ation, all farm land that is under wood. 
"Resolved, That if, in the course of events, it should be deter- 
mined by the people to abandon tile existing canals as highways 
of commerce, the land, outside of cities and villages, now occu- 
pied for canal purposes, should be retained by the State, and grad- 
ually transformed into woodland, in which game should be pro- 
tected all the year around. 
"Resolved, That copies of resolutions be sent to Gov. Black 
and to the Forestry Commission." 
1 move the adoption of this resolution. I did not intend to 
take up much of yottr time, but f wish to say simply that it is due 
to ourselves to adopt action of this kind to-night. 1 am not pre- 
pared to say that, this Association should approve of establish- 
ing as great preserves in western New York as already have been 
established in the eastern quarter, but 1 have no doubt that if the 
subject is urged and the attention of the Legislature is brought to 
the matter we can do a great deal in the matter of having 
small preserves established in suitable quarters of the State out- 
side of the northeast district. Those preserves, the Adirondacks, 
the North Woods, and so on, arc all very well, but 99 out of 
every 100 people cannot go there, whereas if small preserves were 
established .by the State, a man might go from his home a short 
distance and pass a few days with great satisfaction. 1 think 
furthermore the headwaters of the Genesee Kiver should have all 
the benefits that the people of this country have found to follow the 
preservation of forests. We have the second largest river in the 
State, and the experience of everybody that lives here is that in 
the summer the channel of the river has little more water in it 
than there is in the streets of the city. If the forests at the head- 
waters of the Genesee bad been preserved by wise foresight we 
might have a much more beautiful river and no doubt the health 
of the community would have been benefited by it. In regard to 
the matter of preserving the canals for all the people of the State, it 
must be recalled by everybody here that when the Genesee Val- 
ley Canal, which ran from this city south, and the Chenango Canal 
and various others that I cannot recall, were abandoned, the State 
instead of retaining possession of them allowed the adjacent land- 
owners to take the land. If in its wisdom the great Empire State 
should abandon the Erie Canal and the Oswego Canal, and it 
looks as if it might in the future, if that land was preserved by 
1he State, ill time we would have 10,000 of 15,000 acres of woodland 
extending from Albany to Buffalo, outside of the cities. The 
land, outside of that occupied for canal purposes, will average 
2. r >0 to 300ft. wide clear across the State, and it would certainly 
lie a monument that New York State might be proud of. 
The motion was seconded and carried. 
THE COMPETITION. 
On Monday there were about thirty shooters on the grounds, 
Riverside Park. The programme events, however, did not com- 
mence till the following day. 
TUESDAY, FIRST DAY. 
The weather had a touch of coolness in temperature, though 
not to an uncomfortable degree- A sky obscured by masses of 
clouds made a dull light, which with rather fast targets and a stiff 
wind blowing from the rear tended to a lowering of the scores. 
Glover and Kirkover tied on 92 per cent., Banks being close up 
with .915. No remarkable runs were made on the first day. 
The programme for the experts, in addition to the regular 
events, called for ten sweepstakes, 20 targets each, $2 entrance, 
birds extra at S cents, $10 added in each event, moneys divided 
40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent. None of the experts were lucky in 
dropping into a place alone excepting Whitney, who with a full 
score was alone in No. 7, wdiich paid $20.80, otherwise the money 
was split up, mostly into fine parts. However, taking State events 
and all, Banks was high winner of the day, he netting $77.30. 
In the State events, Nos. 1 and 2 were shot.. For the sake 
of convenient reference, and as No. 4 was shot partly on Wednes- 
day and partly on Thursday, all the State events are given in 
one tabie. No. 1 State event was at 25 bluerocks, $4 entrance, 
targets included, $50 added, seven moneys, 22, IS, 16, 12, 12, 10 
and 10 per cent. No. 2 was at 25 targets, $3 entrance, targets 
included, $25 added, seven moneys, as in No. 1. 
Of the thirty-two experts, sixteen shot through the day's pro- 
gramme, the largest entry being twenty-five, in Nos. 1 and 3. Of 
the sixty-six amateurs who shot in the day's programme, only five 
shot through it. 
The magautraps worked badly during the day and kept Mr. 
Paul North quite busy adjusting them. He explained that the 
trouble was caused by the sand, which was more or less freely 
moving, and of which there was an abundance on the grounds, 
ft sifted into the trap pits and got into the bearings of the 
machines: however, there was much less trouble in their works 
on the following day, and still less on the last day of the target 
shooting. 
Following are the scores:

The amateur events were ten in number, five at 15 bluerocks, 
$1.50 entrance, $5 added, and five at 20 targets, $2 entrance, $10 
added, money divided 40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent., as in the expert 
events. Those who desired to enter for practice could shoot for 
targets only. The management reserved the right to classify all 
shooters. The money as a general thing was split up into small 
parts in the ties, though C. A. Ward netted $22.40 on a lone score

of 14 in No. 1. In No. 7 a score of 15 alone netted W. H. Brown 
$12.80, and he was lucky again in No. 8 in- being alone with a 
score of 18, which paid $16, while Swiveller on a lone score of 17 
took in $12. Chase in No. 10, the last event, broke 19 alone and 
took $12.S0, Barker taking $9.60 alone on a score of 17.

WEDNESDAY, SECOND DAY. 
The weather was clear and pleasant. A gentle breeze blew at 
right angles to the traps, without adding anything worthy of 
note to the difficulties of the shooting. The traps worked better 
and the targets were thrown easier than on the previous day. Of 
the twenty-eight experts thirteen shot through the programme.- 
.lack Panning broke 931 per cent., the highest average of the day, 
while Glover broke an even 90 per cent. 
Several of the experts had qualified as amateurs on the scores 
of the previous day. and participated in the pleasant diversions in 
garden with the amateurs, and they made a very commendable 
showing. 
There were seventy-six who participated in the day's amateur 
events, but only ten shot the programme through. In No. 3 
Byer had the greatest luck of the day, he being alone with 15 
straight, which gave a return of $28.40. Of the experts Fulford, 
Crosby, Fanning, I.evingston, Banks and Kclscy were the most 
fortunate winners. 
Events Nos. 5 and 0 of the expert programme gave way to the 
P.. C. cup event. No. 5 in the amateur event was the Gobi Dust 
Smokeless event. The scores of both these events are given ifi

THE E. C. & SCIIULTZE CUP CONTEST. 
The E. C. cup contest took the place of -Nos. 5 and 6 of the expert 
sweepstakes programme, which were omitted. The contest was on 
50 targets, in two sections of 25 targets each, optional sweep 
on each $2. The regular entrance was the price of the birds, $1.50. 
The sweep was divided 30, 25, 20, 15 and 10 per cent. The cup 
went to the highest score. If there were ties they were to be shot 
off on 25 targets. Class shooting. No handicap. Open to the 
world. Sim Glover was alone with a score of 48, and won the cup. 
tie missed his 20th and 32d. Jack Fanning seemed to have a 
cinch on the cup up to his 48th and 49th targets, when he was 
unfortunate in dropping two together, he having only one 
previous miss, his 23d target. The scores:

THURSDAY. 
The weather was warm, clear and pleasant. A gentle breeze 
blew betimes. The attendance had largely diminished, and the 
events dragged somewhat. Only eight of the experts shot through 
the programme. McMurchy broke 135 out of 140, at .964 gait, 
while Van Dyke was smashing things in his old form, scoring 79 
out of his first 80, finishing with 96 out of 100 shot at. Fanning 
tied McMurchy with .964, and there was a general rise in aver- 
ages all along the line. However, the targets were thrown easier, 
though they were not easy to score on at that. There were no 
large winnings in the day's competition. 
The scores at the expert traps were as follows:
