Complaint was entered against j. j.
Lameraux, one of the contractors on
the Milwaukee railroad for cruelty to
animals. He was taken before Justice
Gullander where he plead guilty to the
charge and was fined $50. The mules
and horses working on the grade are
very poor and their shoulders are raw
from the collars. w. H. Smith, of
Beach, N. D., entered the complaint.
The Humane society should get busy
along this line as it is quite likely that
other cases could be found.
Last Wednesday night a fine three
year old colt belonging TO Sven Swan
son was killed on the railroad track
and one badly hurt. Someone very
carelessly left the gate open and let
the stock out. The loss is rather a
heavy one to Mr.. Swanson. If the
person who left the gate open was
made to pay for these horses it would
be a good lesson. Mr.. Swanson said
that this was not the first time that il
has been left open. The gate is
securely fastened with a rope and IL
would be impossible for stock to open
it.
