THE legislature of 1882 made an ap.
preparation of 100000 for the en-.
largement of the State capitol, the ad.
dition to be used by the Supreme
Court and the State Historical Society.
To secure this appropriation the PEG.
pie of Madison elected Hon. E. w.
Reyes to the Assembly. Keyes' con-
stituents gained their point but their
distinguished citizen lost his post-of-
flee. Most of tue Milwaukee mem
bers voted for the bill, in consequence
of which Madison feels like throwing
her arms around the "Cream City
and calling her pet names. This act
has closed the "bloody chasm" that
has hitherto existed between the cap.
