Prison Press Debuts From Wisconsin State Prison
A fragment from an essay discusses the first issue of a weekly prison newspaper at the State prison in Wau, Wisconsin. It notes the editor, aims to publish nonpartisan reporting, avoid political endorsements, and serve as an advertising medium for railways and other readers while warning against outside agents. The piece mixes digressions on editors and a past failed prison paper, with a vivid if rambling portrait of railroads and rural Wisconsin.
