Reporting Such Cases to Probate
Court for Disposition.

Medina county has probation Of
ficer, County Nurse Constance Hanna
having received the appointment on
Tuesday from Probate Judge VanDeu-
sen.
The appointment was the result Of
erstwhle unsatisfactory conditions sur
rounding the commitment to State
homes Of INDECENT children of the coun-
ty. In years gone by cases have aris-
en- when the condition of such child
rem have been brought directly to the
attention Of the County Commissioners
instead Of the Probate Court, and the
cases disposed of by the Commission
ers. And until recently such action
has not been questioned by officials of
the institutions to which, the children
were committed.
II is the aim of the state institu-
tions to find suitable homes for such
INDECENT children when possible, the
latter oftentimes being legally adopted
and it was contingencies Of this kind
that brought to light the irregularity

MRS. ROBERT BAILEY s., z z
DIES AT AGE or 90

Announcement of the death of Mrs.
Margaret Francis Bailey, widow of
the late Robert Bailey Of Lafayette
township, will arouse tender recollec-
tions in the hearts of many friends
among the older residents, not only of
the township in which the greater
part Of her married life was spent but
also in Medina, where she resided
from infancy until the time Of her
marriage !. Her death occurred on
Nov. 15. at the home Of her daughter,
Mrs. Daniel Buswell, at Haddam, Kan
sas, at the age of 80 years, 8 months.
Margaret Francis Bailey was the
eldest daughter Of Thomas and Mar
garet tRichardson) Sanderson, and
was born in Yorkshire England, March
Is. 1880. At the age Of two years
with her parents she came to Ameri-
ca, settling in Brecksville, Cuyahoga
county "A year later the family came
to Medina, where the mother and
father spent the remainder Of their
lives. Her mother dying when Mar
garet was II years old, upon the lat
ter devolved the care Of three young
er sisters, Mary Ann, Eliza and Pris-
ella, who have since passed away.
On Sept. 6, 1850, she became the
wife Of Robert Bailey, also a native of
England, to whom were born six child
rem, namely: Frances, Thomas, Edith,
Rosa, Edward and Alice. The hus-
band and father died Feb. 5, 1905, fol
lowing which the deceased went to
make her home with her daughter in
Kansas, residing there until her death.
She had been nearly helpless since
last April, when she suffered a para
lytic stroke affecting her right side.
Two children, Frances and Thomas,
S8 grandchildren, Z great-grandchild-
ren, besides several nieces and neph-
ews, are left to mourn their loss. Y
The body was brought to Medina,
where funeral services were held on
Friday afternoon at the Baptist
church, conducted by the pastor, Rev.
Irwin. Burial was made in Spring
Grove cemetery, beside the husband
and son Edward. NJ

horseback, and the township had two
daredevil riders, Dan Hayden and
Pete Cherry.
"The village store stood on the west
center road at its junction with the
public square. Just north of this
stood the old academy
'In this store, both day and night,
was to be found a crowd Of loafers
! who were always free to tell of the
| mistakes Of Lincoln, the defeat Of
Union arms and the alleged unconsti-
tutional acts Of the party in power.
They called the Union soldiers Lin
coins Dogs, and the war Lincoln's
Abolition War. At this time the
posto ce was here, and almost every
man in the township called there sew
eral times during the week. Almost
all men, especially the younger set,
at this time, went armed.
"One day Dan, Hayden strolled into
the store and after listening to the
treason that was being expounded,
quietly asked:
why don't you men 60 south to
your friends and fight for your Rebel
principles
"With an oath one man jumped TO
his feet shouting, Let us> hang the
dirty son of a -.' By this time
the whole gang were on their feet.
Hayden squared himself, letting his
hands drop down to his hips. Sud-
denly they came up like tightening,
and in each hand was navy revoiv-
er.
Come and take me, gentlemen he
smiled, but he continued, TIL send
the whole bunch Of you to helE.'
Hayden slowly backed toward the
door, unlatched it, slid through, drop
ped his revolvers in their holsters, un-
hitched his pony, swung lightly into
the saddle and galloped southwark
toward home.
I'm the silence and darkness of the
night, on the public square, the writ
er was shot at four times because he
dared hurrah for the Union. Had
they dared do this in the day time he
would have ridden them down, because
he had his horse trained to go where
ever he would send him, and because
he believed that there was no weapon
ever made that could kill him. Shot
at some 20 times. once from, a dis
tanc4 Of four feet, and several times
/ knocked down by The force Of the the
concussion,yet he had never been hit"

VETERAN RELATES TALE OF BELLUM AND
ANTI BELLUM DAYS IN SHARON TOWNSHIP

In last weeks issue Of the Wads-
worth Banner-P Press, under the cap
ton "Sharon and The Ku-Klux Clan,
appeared an article of exceptional in
terest dealing with the intense sec
tional feelings during and preceding
the Civil War, particularly in Sharon
township, this county. The article,
rather lengthy and to be continued in
a subsequent edition Of the Banner
Press, was written by P. P. Cherry,
who participated in some OF the
events Of which he writes, and from
whose article the Sentinel borrows
the following extracts:
War clouds were lowering over the
township as early as 1859, writes Mr..
Cherry. "The days of John Brown
had come. In the cleaning Of those
fall days of 1859, can remember the
farmers congregating in the fence
corners and discussing in low tones
John Brown and the country. The
consensus of opinion was that break
ers were close ahead.
nSharon was now (1860) in an up
roar politically. Charges and count
er charges were made freely. Fights
and threatened fights were Of daily
occurrence, and the mildest epithets
were sNigger-lovers' and Black Re-
publicans'. Party lines were drawn
tightly and the black hand Of treason
reached slowly over the township,
from whose curse the township was
never to, recover. \
"Early the people separated into
two parties. The Republicans and
Democrats who stood for the union bf
the states, formed the Union party
those who believed in the sanctity Of
States Rights, the retention and ex-
tension Of slavery, and hoped for the
success Of Southern arms, called them
selves Democrats.
"This was the situation at the time
Of Lincoln's first call for volunteers
and it was the situation during the en-
| tire war. Ii
"The eastern half or more Of Shar-
on opposed the war. The wertern
half including the south center ioad
was Union; but the western half IN
cluded large tracts Of unbrokeh tim
berland, 50 Of the cleared land the
western half was but one-third Of the
township, while the village itself was
almost sCopperhead' to tlie core. n
Almost every one at this time rode

CREDIT FOR SUFFRAGE

Resentment in a certain measure Is not only
pardopabIe but actually commendable in senator
Harding at the gross and persistent msrepresenta-
ton to which the Republican party Is subjected IN
relation to equal suffrage He ought to resent It, and
so ought every fair minded citizen of no matter what
phrty Above all, perhaps, 1t ought to be resented
and condemned by the sincere friends OF woman SUI
frage because not only brings reproach upon their
cause but also positively Injuries it, 1t is done OF
course not by suffragsts but by designing par
isans who do scruple thus to misuse the suffrage
cause in the hope of njuring the Republican and aid
ing the Democratic party. The real leaders OF the
suffrassts are too intelligent and too sincere TO en-
gage in such WORK.
Despite his natural Indignation, however, Seha-
TOR Harding treats the matter with patience, with
courtesy and with convincing force He again MAKES
t perfectly clear that the great progress mus a'
made by equal suffrage is to be credited to the ne
publican party and that no matter what state may
eventually be the thrty-sixth. in completing .he
work of ratification, the adoption of the amendment
will be prominently the work of that party IL was
put through both houses of Congress by Republican
votes and the votes for ratification have nearly all
come from Republican states. Let us once more re-
call the exact figures of record:
In Congress-
For Suffrage . Republicans, 2Ss Democrats, 1872
AGAINST Republicans, 81 Democrats, 81
States:--
For Ratification Republican. 2s Democrats
Against Republican. Democrats,
Not vet acted . Republicans Democrats
Thus of ,hirty-two Republican states. twenty
niuee haze ratified the Amendment and only one has
re ected IL: while of sixteen Democratic states only
six have ratified IT, and an equal number, SIX nave
outright rejected it, More than 100000 women
in ~ states will be able to vote for President this
year by state enactment and of these p states only
four or five are Democratic while go or 23 are Re-
publican In 81 states. more than 10000 women
sii wait acknowledgements and of those states twelve
are Democratic and only Republican while two
are doubtful.
With such facts of record before them for poll
teal tricksters akin to the San Francisco forger to
pretend that women all owe the triumph of equal
suffrage to the Democratic party, and that failure or
delay OF ratification is the fault of Republicans, is
effronery so sublime that matter haw strongly he
might resent and denounce it, Senator Harding might
well, like Give, stand astonished at his moder
ation.-Harveys Weekly.
