SAY FISHWAYS ARE USELESS
Commission Viii Ask Legislature to
Repeal Law as Result of a
Recent Test.

Madison-The Wisconsin fish COM
mission will ask the next legislature
to repeal the law providing for fish
ways over dams because it believes
from recent experiments that game
fish will not use them. Under the
present law the commission is en-
powered to require fishways built in
any dam in which they are consid-
cred necessary. Many fish culturists
believe that game fish will climb fish
ways in their efforts to get upstream
to breeding places. The commission
through its superintendent, James
Nevin, conducted a test during the
month of May, and found that but
seventy-siX fish, sixty-tive of which
were suckers, made use of the con-
trivance.

NO GROUNDS FOR ACTION
State Railroad Commission Rules
Poor Service Not Adequate
for Reimbursement.

Madison.-The state railroad COM
mission cannot order common car
riers to reimburse passengers who
miss connections at junction points.
This was decided in an order issued
in suit brought by Alfred C. Bur-
rill, deputy nursery and orchard in
spector for the University of Wiscon-
sin, against the Illinois Central road
He missed connections at Dodgeville
because the Illinois Central train
from Freeport was several hours
late. He brought suit for $3.50, the
loss he alleged was sustained by the
agricultural college on account of his
late arrival in Madison. The rail-
road commission says it has no au-
thority to compel reparation for ex-
pense incurred in failing to make
connections. The complaint Is dis
missed.

STOOD FOR LAW AND ORDER
Work Of the vigiIantes Was Neces'
sary, Though Writer Admits There
Were Exceptions.

When not engaged in robbery, this
criminal population followed other
disreputabe pursuits. Gambling and
RIGHTEOUSNESS were the most consplcu-
Gus features of every mining camp,
and both were but species OF robbery.
Dance houses sprung up as II by en-
chantment, and everyone who sought
an evenings recreation in them was
in some way relieved of the money he
took there. An issue involving the
destruction of the good or bad ele-
me Mt actually existed at the time that
the people entered upon the work of
punishment.
I offer these remarks, not In vindi-
cation of all of the acts of the vigil
lantes, but of so many of them as
were necessary to establish the safety
and protection of the people. The
reader will find among the later acts
OF some Of the individuals claiming to
have exercised the authority OF the
vigilantes some executions OF which
he cannot approve. For these persons
I can offer no apology Many Of these
were worse men than those they exc
cuted. Some were hasty and incon-
siderate, and while firm in the belief
they were doing right, actually com
mitted grievous offenses. Unhappily
for the vigilantes. the acts Of these
men have been recalled to justify an
opinion abroad prejudiCial TO the
vigilante organization. Nothing could
be more unjust. The early Vigilantes
were the best and most intelligent
men in the mining regions They
said and felt that, in the absence Of
all law, they must become a law un-
to themselves" or submit to the
bloody code of the bandtti by which
they we're surrounded, and which was
increasing in numbers more rapidly
than selyes.--Nathaniel Pitt
