Of war are better calculated to inspire
terror in unmounted troops than a
desperate advancing charge of cavalry
at close quarters, with dust flying and
hoofs changing, and the discharge of
carbines keeping music to the war
like neighing of stations on full gal
lop. The skirmishes during the pen
insular war were mostly of this char
acter, and the Duke of Wellington used
equipped, were equivalent to five in
fantry soldiers, though since the in
PRODUCTION of repeating rifles the pro-
portions of Wellington's time are sad
ly altered now.
1t is somewhat sad to- state that de-
spite all the uses of horses in war, and
Notwithstanding the great exposure of
this noble animal to danger in case
of battle, statistics show the death of
a greater proportion of horses from
disease, neglect or starvation than
from actual slaughter in action. Want
of food, want of water and want of
rest, the common misfortune of every
cmpaign, kills over fifty per cent. of
the horses; and overwork, disease and
exposure destroy a far larger proper
ton than are actually killed in war.
If these good people who spend their
nights dreaming about the parliament
Of Man and the federation Of the
world, would devote some of their
spare energy to enforcing the plainest
dictates of humanity in the cases of
dishonest army contractors the peace
societies would do much to mitigate
the horrid treatment of horses in war,
and accomplish some real good Even
in times of peace the mortality
amongst horses for cavalry and artil-
lery purposes is. very large. During

HORSES
IN WAR. )
~

In the midst of the attention we are
giving to the personnel of our armies
there is a feature not less important
than the feeding and the physical con-
dition of the men, and which we are
apt to overlook 1t is the condition
and training of the army horse.
Horses are almost as necessary an adj
junct to a successful war as are men.
With the exception Of carriage horses
for use on the boulevards of large cit
les. and race horses-of which class
We probably breed the fastest in the
world-we have run behind other ma
tiOns in the production of good and
Serviceable horses. This was because
having such splendid railroad and
electric facilities, we have had less
need for horses than other people. One
of the results of our new expansive
policy will be to enlist public interest
in the cavalry horse; for while we may
have soldiers and a navy that can beat
the world, without strong and speedy
horses capable of covering a march
and capturing a position by dash, we
cannot be fully equipped as nation.
The effect of quick-lring guns will
be to reduce the relative efficiency of
cavalry and of infantry from those of
the olden time, but nevertheless the
horses will still be a powerful factor
in war. The style of horse needed in
the army is that known in the older
countries as the hunting horse, an ami
NAL with enormous chest, clean limbs,
Vilas County news. [volume] (Eagle River, Vilas County, Wis.) 1896-1927, 1898-06-20

their cavalry in the case of the Prus-
slams at Gravelotte that caused the
defeat of the French army. Horses in
each of these campaigns turned the
fortunes of war, and affected the ma
tons fate
The great purposes of horses in war
are to transport guns, to carry the SOL
diers, to protect them in case of a
charge and to furnish food to the army
in case of famine. Many a soldier has
protected his own life fighting an
enemy from behind the dead body of
his horse, and when a retreating force
was cut off from it's base of supplies,
an army was often prOvisiOned by
the suffers forces returning to the
scene of defeat and cooking the horses
that were killed in battle.
And in the Sioux campaign Of 1876
General Cook was SO hard pressed for
food that he had to kill some of the
horses, the command subsisting on the
meat for several days.
The well-trained cavalry horse fights
some upon his own account. He rears
upon his hind legs and strikes venom
ously with his forelegs at the sight Of
an enemy whose colors he knows near
ly as we'll as those of his master. In
a charge of infantry the horse being
so much larger, offers a greater tar
get than the rider whose chest is pro-
tected by the erect neck and head of
his gallant Stoed Horses thuc save
the lives of the men, and few phases

heavy Ioins, deep quarters and free
moving action. Such horse when
well-groomed and bred will carry a
mount of $50 pounds across country at
an excellent riding pace for the space
of FIVE or six hours, and will be COM
paratively fit and fresh for pro-
longed march at the close.
Hunters thus trained in the field to
rough work, make excellent army
horses. Not being much accustomed
to the delights of the chase in this
busy country, we have not developed
the European type of hunting horse;
but he is coming.
The best type of the American horse
for use in the army, now comes from
Kentucky, and from the neighboring
mountainous states. 1t is claimed by
some that the small, chunky" horse
is far better fitted for transporting
cannon than horses Of finer proportions
and of greater weight and frame.
It was the need of horses of such
endurance and powers which more
than anything else defeated Napoleon's
campaign upon Moscow.
The Russians were convinced of this,
and when some of them saw French
g1'D at the base of an Recovered mole
with the horses that drew it, lying
with broken limbs beside it, because
Napoleon had omitted to bring horse
nails, they exclaimed with joy: God
made Napoleon forget that there is a
winter in this country"

Some of the leading farmers in the

it an excellent preventive for cholera,
and has been able to keep his herds,

Washington, June 10.-The senate
agreed to the conference report on
the war revenue BILL The debate
was without special incident and
entirely devoid Of acrimonius features.
1t was foregone conclusion that the
report would be agreed to and the
only question of interest involved was
how soon the vote could be reached
! The debate indicated generally that
the bill as agreed upon by the confer
ees was reasonably satisfactory to
everybody, except as to the bond pro-
vision. The votes cast against the
adoption of the report reflected the
opinions of those senators who are
opposed to any increase in the inter
est bearing debt Of the country. The
report was agreed to by the decisive
vote Of 43 to %. Every republican
voted for the measure and their votes
were supplemented by those Of eight
democrats, one silver republican and
one Independent.
AS soon as engrossed the bill will
be signed by the presiding officers of
the two branches of congress and
then be sent to the president

bitter personal discussion was pre-
cipitated by Mr.. Butler. (pop., N. Co.
who attacked Mr.. Kyle, (pop., S. ID
for having voted for the issuance of
bonds. Mr.. Butler, speaking as
chairman of the populist national
committee, officially declared that Mr.
Kyle did not represent the populist
party. Mr.. Kyle replied warmly,
saying that he was responsible for
his political actions not to Mr.. But
Ter, but to his conscience and his
constituents. Subsequently he de-
nounced as intentional and malicious
falsehoods'' some of the statements
made about him by Mr.. Pettigrew.
The senate adjourned until Monday.
