faults of the present construction of
highways. Because they know just
how bad the roads are, the incentive
for road improvement has led them to
make a undue proposition. It is
practically an offer to the state to con-
tribute dollar for dollar in road build
ing, if an appropriation is made. alt is
proposed to circulate petitions through
out the state addressed to the legisla-
ture. For the purpose of obtaining
signatures co this petition, the state
will be divided into districts which will
be in charge of a captain, and the first
signature obtained will be that of the
member of the legislature from that
district. BY this means the legislature
will find that it is simply petitioning
itself. When the time comes for pre-
senting the petition, 1000 wheelman
will gather at the state capital and
offer a draft o. a bill for good roads.
Every Wheelman and every wheel
women in the state is expected to sign
the petition and agree to give 81 when
ever the state shall have appropriated
$500,000 for road improvement.
There is a proposition to build two
roads through the state, one beginning
near Hudson and running east to Mil
waukee, passing through Madison. The
other is to begin at Ashland and end
at Beloit, also passing through Madi-
son. 1t is the intention to have these
roads terminate at the state line, where
other states may take up the work and
continue it, There are to be 500 petit
tions in circulation, and the local
centurions at the different points will
be named as captains. The centurion
for the Madison district is Ben w
Park and he will have charge of the
work at that most important central
point. He will of course have several
ieutenants to assist him. The accom-
panying map shows an outline of the
proposed highways.

THE INQUIRY RESUMED.
Testimony for Defense Taken in State
Prison Investigation.

Waupun, Wis, Feb. 2.-The state
nrison investigation was resumed
here Tuesday morning and several
witnesses were examined. The most
important testimony was that OF Will
liam Walton, who was sent UP year
ago and who was at that time surfer
ing from heart and lung
trouble. If the story as
told by Walton is true, it will re-
fleet somewhat upon the management
of the prison. Walton said that when
he was taken to prison he was put to
work on machine in the shoe factory.
which, he says, seriously affected his
lungs on account of the dust, and al
though he secured certificate from
DR.. Messer to be excused from the
work, no attention was paid to it and
he was compelled to work at the same
machine. Walton claimed that he had
three or four certificates or orders
from the physicians and that they were
delivered to the proper authorities,
but no attention whatever was paid
to him. He was kept at work until it
was absolutely impossible for him to
work any more when he was taken to
the hospital, where he has been ever
since.
Marshal Linter of Prairie du Chen
and former Sheriff Stoehland Of Craw
ford county testified in the case of
Lessard, the prisoner who is alleged
to have died from lack of medical at
tention. The testimony was to the
effect that Lessard was not an habit
ual drunkard. The prison authorities
had testified that he had been a drink
ing man and the abstinence from drink
resulted in his death.
