AFJ APPEAL FOR
Improved Cattle Cars,

THE United States law to protect animals
L during the transportation by rail pro
YIdes that when they are carried in cars
In which they can be fed Watered and
have rest, its requirement that animals shall
be unlOaded every . hours, and then have
rest Of hours. shall not apply 10 animals in
such cars The law prevents starvation and
100 long confinement IN cars so FAR AS IT IS
OBEYED by the Railroad Companies aDG its
existence and enforcement are of the first
necessity while the common stock cars are
used, but the reloading at the stopping places
Is attended with much cruelty. It being natu-
rally hard to get the poor creatures back into
cars, where they have already snfTeEed,
without blows, or worse.
To meet this want of an improved car the
American Humane Association offered prize
Of five thousand dollars lS5.G00) for such a car
in $780, to stimulate the inventive ability of
the country. One OF its conditions was that
the patents on the approved car should be
given to the Association, that the car might
be offered to the railroad companies bv il free
from charges of royalty.
But the owners of the best inventions de
clOed not to compete for the prize. thinking
that their cars would prove more valuable to
them than the $4,000. Accordingly, the prize
could not be awarded. The offer, however
caused the construction of cars WHICH MEET
THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE LAW and the
trustees of the fund take this way Of making
known the fact to Officers. Directors and
STOCKHOLDERS OF Railroad Companies, and to
all humane people whose hearts have been
touched by the atrocities of this traffic
G0td medals hags been giCen to the persons
and companies named below. The names are
given in the order that the several cars were
examined:
A. c. MATHER. Chicago, Illinois.
W. STUART HUNTER, BelleviIe, Canada
J. NJ. LINCOLN, Providence Rhode Island
MoNTGOMERY PALACE CAR COMPANY, New
York Citv
BURTON STOCK CAR CONPANY, Boston, Mas
sachusetts.
THOMAS CLARK, Truro, Nova Scotia
JOHN W. STREET, Chicago, Illinois.
80 long a. the common car Is used, the
words OF Senator Mcpherson, Of New Jersey
Will continue true: Il declare the live stock
traffic to be one long and uninterrupted line
of suffering from the West to the East" The
sanitary objections are also OF the gravest
character.
The great success Of refrigerator cars is
lessening the number Of animals transported
alive; but there must always remain such a
traffic In them rs to make the improved car
permanent necessity.
10 avoid ali misrepresentation on the sub
iect. we add that neither the Association or
any Of its officers have pecuaiary interest
u amy OF the ears above named.

Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1884-02-27

There are a number of living wit
nesses scattered up and down this
section of the country that would be
glad to read the above communica-
ton, coming as it does from one that
was so much respected in the old
second cavalry. Gen. Hatch was at
the time of the Boonviile fight colonel
of the second Iowa cavalry, and they
were called "the twin second"
Gen. Hatch speaks in very compli-
mentary terms of Capt. Campbell's
conduct in that trying ordeal, and
well he may, for that battle vas where
Archie Campbell justly won his star,
for in less than two weeks from that
date, Capt. Campbell was colonel of
the regiment, and few days after
brevet brigadier, and held that posi-
ton until his death.
Col. Hatch was also promoted mt the
same time for his bravery on the same
occasion, and no Drawer nor better of
ficer than he ever wore star.
Col. Hatch, as he was more famil-
iarly known by "the twin seconds"
will always have lasting place in
the hearts of the old boys Of the two
regiments.

Second Michigan Cavalry.

A correspondent has been writing
up the Second Michigan Cavalry for
the Port Huron Times, and as there
are number of the boys from the
old I'd along the shore, we give space
for one of the recent letters; but be-
fore the quotation we will merely say
that we know Of three men in Alpena
who served in the End Cavalry,
namely: Douglass Scott, b. F.
Cheesbro and - Higgins:
"The following extract is from let
ter written by Gen. Edward Hatch,
at Fort Riley, Ka., January A, 1884 /:
You can not say too much of the fighting
qualities of the 2nd Michigan Cavalry. l
was with your regiment in action at Boom
vile, Miss, certainly one of the hardest
fought cavalry affairs Of the war. The two
regiments went into action with about 900
men all told. The Confederates acknowl-
edged force $4,000. The fighting lasting
