Special to IlmeS-RepuDllcans
Waterloo, Aug. S.-Mrs. j. M. Bailey,
broken in health and gray-haired from
worry and grief over her erring SON,
accompanied by her daughter. Dolly,
came to Waterloo from their home IN
I.aPorte, and after visiting day at the
r. A. Large home. left last evening for
Kansas City, for one last visit with
their son and brother. before he goes
to the gallows for murder. The sadness
and horror of such journey are not
lightened by any hope for the final
edict of Governor Folk has shut out
the last hope for the condemned young
man, Edgar q. Bailey. Attic the lat
ter still seems to have hope, his friends
appear to think it is more of bluff
than real hope. These same friends.
it is stated, are severely criticising the
governor for giving his opinion in the
Bailey case so long before the execu-
ton is to take place. They argue that
it is not customary and that by so
doing the prisoner and his friends ara
deprived of the solace of hope, being
caused a great deal more of suffering
than otherwise, for there is no likeli-
hood Of Governor Folk changing his
mind.
Bailey has again been taken from
City jail and was placed in the death
cell, in the women's department. where
he will be confined until his execution.
If he ever shaved again it will not be
with IS own razor but by the prison
barber and every effort will be made
to Illustrate any attempt he may make
at self destruction. Bailey is under
sentence to be hanged on September Ill.
and nine days before the fatal date, or
on Septmber 2, the death watch will
be placed over him, man being in his
cell all Of the time, night and day
The strain Of the past few months
upon the parents and sister of the
condemned man has been terrible, and
their condition is pitiful. From ro-
bust, healthy woman, past 60 years OF
age, Mrs. Bailey has been transformed
j.to bowed, broken hearted mother,
9th step infirm, and the father. who
mas been In Kansas City since the SUI
preme court refused to grant his son
a new trial, is also in very delicate
health. Mrs. Bailey and daughter will
probably remain there until few days
prior to the execution. The father will
stay until after the solemn ordeal to
take the remains back to Laporte for
interment. Young Bailey was raised in
I1aporte and much interest has been
manifested in his case by friends Of
The family, who have the deepest SYM
