CARROLL FOR UNIFORM LAW.
Says Extradition Statutes Should Be
Alike in All States.

Des Moines, March 3.-"Uniform ex-
tradition laws in all states would save
much work in taking accused persons
from one state to another and would
be of great benefit to the courts" said
Governor Carroll yesterday.
"At present officers and county at
atorneys who are not familiar with the
widely different laws of the various
states, apply here for papers without
the affidavits and the number of certi-
fed copies required by the state from
which they seek to remove a man.
"One state demands a half dozen va
rious affidavits, another requires two
and three. copies and another requires
four. In some states to extradite a
man it is necessary to secure affidavits
to certain things in certain cases. It
is a complex affairs and could be
Strengthened out and made easy by
means Of uniform laws.
Governor Hadley of Missouri has
asked that certain affidavits accom-
pany applications for persons in his
state. Similar requests have come in
from other states in the past. There is
no conflict between this office and Gov
ernor Hadiey, but until the county at
torneys over the stale learn of the re-
quirement of Missouri, there will be
trouble in securing prisoners because
of insufficiency of papers. We have

How Gas rs Made.

The new city gas plant has just re-
Gently been put in operation at Fort
Atkinson and the process of making
gas is one so little known by the gen
eral public that the following account
given by the Union will be of interest:
The plan of producing the gas is sim
pie and most interesting. The first
part of the procedure consists in firing
bed of coke in the generator, which
resembles large iron boiler, placed on
end. This is filled with fuel, and the.
fire is made to produce high degree
of heat by means of an air blast, oper-
ated by fan that is propelled from the
engine. When the proper heat has
been reached the air is turned off, and
steam is turned on from the boiler,
which stands adjacent to it, and which
is similar in exterior to the generator.
This steam then passes up through the
hot coke and over into the carburetor,
which stands behind it, being parallel
with the top Of the generators. Here
the heat passes over hot checkered
brick, in such manner that every par
ticle of the vapOr comes in contact with
the heated surfaces of the brick.
The steam in this operation is decom-
POOCu dIlO CIlS LyOlOSCu IL SO1lCc@illO 10
liberated in the form of hydrogen gas.
This gas however has little Illuminating
power, and so spray of oil is turned
into the carburetor, which in the high
temperature of the chamber unites with
the hydrogen.
To complete the union, or accomplish
what is termed the linking" of the
component parts of the new gas, the
combination is allowed to pass into the
super-heater. This is another great
iron cylinder, also filled with checker
bricks. From here the gas is piped to
the washing or securing machine, where
it's coarser impurities are removed by
water sprayed through it. From this
machine the gas goes to the purifying
boxes. All the chemical impurities are
here extracted, and the gas then con-
Quoted to the great holder for distribu-
ton through the mains.

MacInnis officiating. The wedding was

the hunting up Of County Clerk Lee
and the securing of another license.
The welded pair drove Immediately to
a home already arranged for house
keeping on the Herman Koosch farm
in Albion where they are to reside.

New Switchboard Installed.

The new switchboard which the Ed
gerton Telephone Co. ordered from the
Monarch Co. some time ago was put
into commission at the central office
this week. The transferring of several
hundred connections from the old to
the new board was in charge of an ex-
pert sent out from Chicago and has
proven no small job, necessitating al
most continuous work from Saturday
until early Wednesday morning,
but only for about twelve hours were
the patrons of the office cut out of SER
vice. The new board is of the latest
modern type, offering all conveniences
for rapid and accurate handling of tele-
phone calls. With this improvement it
is believed that all cross talk will be
obviated and the service greatly i'm
proved. The new board will also en-
able the company to take on consider
able new business, as it has provided
for any increase that is likely to come
for several years. The public are in
vited to drop into the Office and see the
new board in operation and see how
easily the ''hello'' girls handle the
thousands of calls that come in over
the wires each day.

The Reporter has purposely avoided
taking sides in the no-license campaign
for it believed that most Of things COM
planned of could be remedied without
the sacrifice of property or business in
terests of our city, which the voting
out of the saloons would necessarily
entail. It is fair to believe that people
will conscientiously differ on this ques-
ton and we preferred to leave it to the
dictates Of the individual conscience of
every voter without prejudice or bias,
when the spirit of neighborly friend
ship and unity is SO necessary for the
upbu;lding Of any community. The
will of the majority ought to be ac-
copied as final, even though it be close,
and every one conceded the right to his
honest convictions.
But if the saloon keepers of Edger-
ton read the signs Alright they will COM
mence to clean house at once. They
have it in their power to rid themselves
of the obnoxious overflow from our
neighboring town that has brought dis
grace upon their business and brought
about protest from people who here
tofore favored license regulation. The
closeness of the vote ought to be suf-
fcient warning that the days of the
saloon in this city are numbered unless
a radical reform is inaugurated.

LICENSE WINS BY SMALL MARGIN
Warm Election Campaign Closed With
the Voting on Tuesday. Some Re-
suits Here and Elsewhere.

The hottest anti-saloon campaign
ever waged in Edgerton was brought
to close by the counting of the bal
lots cast at the municipal election on
Tuesday last The day was strenu-
Gus one at the polls where both sides
of the contest were represented by
attorneys with deputy sheriff handy
in case he might be needed to make
arrests or preserve the peace and
every suspicious voter was questioned
or challenged, as well as others who
have regularly cast their ballots for
years at this election precinct. An in
terested crowd of spectators were also
present most of the day, while the
lawyers tangled and fought over the
eligibility Of voters in proceeding
that would have been much more APP
propriate to justice court than an
election poll. Despite the fact that a
drizzling rain fell most of the day,
nothing was left undone to get out a
large vote, which came within two OF
the high water mark in municipal cleo
lions that of two years ago when GIG
were cast. There were but two con-
tests for city offices, those being for
aldermen in the first and second wards,
SO that the overshadowing interest was
conferred in the result of the license
vote, and the large floating vote was
doubtless the deciding element in the
contest. The following is the result of
