bridges read and adopted.
Gentlemen Your committee on roads and
bridges to whom was referred annexed resolution
adopting provisions of Chapters 552 and 4S8 of
Wisconsin laws for 1907. beg leave to report
follows: That we have had said resolution and
provisions Of said laws under careful eonsidera-
ton. We regret that legislature has seen fit to
pass two laws covering same subject and appar-
entity in hopeless conflict. We regard establish
ment Of an exclusive system Of county highways
as in some instances desirable but believe the
adoption of such law should DC optional with
county boards After careful consideration of
subject in all its phases recommend that act
ion upon this subject be deferred until next ses-
sion Of county board. such delay giving to courts
an opportunity pass upon validity of said laws
