The Tribune has been asked to print
the names of a couple of fellows who
come to town and leave their horses
on the streets without first covering
them with blankets and then forget
the animals for several hours
This is certainly very thoughtless
and inhumane practice and the Tri-
bune hopes the fellows who are gull
ty will see to it that their horses
fare better nett time they come to
town. If both of these thoughtless
fellows instead of the horses could
be tied to post, with only cheese
cloth nightie to protect them from the
Alaskan zephers romping up and down
their frames, they might be brought
to better understanding of the stuff
