A WARNING TO THE
WHISKEY RUNNERS

For a good long time several of
our citizens have suspected that
we had a lawless bunch in our
midst who have been engaged in
the unlawful work of bringing
whiskey into the city and either
selling it or leaving it around
where the thirsty ones could find
it easily. 1t has also been sus-
pected that a certain one of the
gang" has been making the red
poison, but nothing has been said
or done.
But the unhappy ending of last
Sundays carousal brings the
matter up in a different light, and
the decent, respectable, law-abid-
ing citizens of the community de-
mand that action be taken, and at
once to stamp out the curse.
At any rate the party who fur
nished the whiskey which caused
the death of one of our citizens
is directly responsible for the
same, and if he has the least con-
science it will be many moons
before he should have the nerve
to look into the face of a decent
man or woman.
The names of nearly every one
who have been in the habit Of
taking part in this game of slow
suicide are nearly all known, and
if the practice is not stopped inn
mediately, there will be something
doing that will make this lawless
element sit up and take notice.
From now on every one of them
will be closely watched, and if it
can't be stopped in any other way
the people will take it in their
own hands.

MARLETTE is EASY VICTIM

The crowd of spectators that as
sembled at the City Park We'd
nesday last expecting to see real
ball game, went home disappoint-
ed. 1t was easily the most one
sided contest staged at the local
ball park in some time.
Yale opened the game with her
strongest lineup in the field,
Summers taking the mound at the
start of the contest. Marlette
scored once in the first inning
and Yale repeated the feat when
they came to bat. The visitors
scored once more in the second
and Yale piled up four more tai
lies in their half of the frame.
Marlette added one more in their
part of the third and the home
lads scored five more in the same
inning. Neither team did any
scoring in the fourth inning. Yale
was then seven runs in the lead
so Summers was relieved and C..
Slosser took the mound, the
change being made to save Sum-
mers for the Brown City contest.
The boys gave the recruit pitcher
practically air tight support dur
ing the rest of the contest. 1t Just
seemed as though Marlette could
not retire Yale when they went to
bat. They scored five times in the
fifth, twice in the sixth and added
eight more in the eighth inning.
Marlette hardly threatened while
Slosser was making his debut,
scoring twice in the fifth on an
overthrow and hit to right field.
Our boys journey to Brown City
Friday afternoon to clash with
the High School team of that city
for the second time this year.
Brown City staged an eighth in
ming rally and defeated our boys
in the opening game on the home
lot April 18th. Our boys have won
the last four games, scoring in all
&C runs against 21 for their oppo-
nents. They will therefore travel
to our neighboring city anxious
to annex one more to their string
of victories. Brown City is also
playing great ball this year, so
this contest ought to be a thriller
Journey to Brown City Friday af-
ternoon and show the boys that
you are vitality interested in them
They will do the rest.

COURT DECISION O. KS
GAS RATE RAISE

A decision was handed down by the
state supreme court last week, which
might have meant much to every gas
using citizen in Medina had the rul-
ing been reversed. AS it, is the de-
cision came as every one expected it
would and did not couse even the
smallest furry. The case in question
was the right of the gas companies to
annul contract with a village and
charge higher rate for their pro
duct even with the permission of
council. The case was carried up
from Findley, where council had per-
mitted the gas company to terminate
a contract and make a new one calling
for a higher rate, the same as was
done last winter by Medina's council.
The case was contested and the low
er court maintained that members of
council had no right to permit such
proceedings and called the raise ille-
gal.
The case was carried up, resulting
in a supreme court decision last week
reversing the opinion handed down
by the lower court and legalizing the
rate raise.
Had the supreme court upheld the
lower court Medina consumers would
probably been allowed to collect re-
fund from the local gas company, the
refund being the extra ten cents per
thousand which they have been pay
ing during the past year.

MIR. MILLER LOCATES IN
ENTERPRISING FREMONT

Medina citizens often remark on
having permitted good business ven
lures to go elsewhere for location
when they first came seeking support
here. Had Medina tied up all the good
propositions offered in the past, they
say, it would now be a city.
This may be true; we can't say to
the contrary. But that is not the
only place Medina has fallen down.
Note the following news dispatch:
Fremont, March 6,-Charles J. Mil
ler, Medina, representing Cleveland
and Detroit business men, today pur-
chased the Lincoln Stove Co. plant for
$250,000.
The Fremont Foundry Co. will be
Incorporated, and castings for auto
mobile and trucks will be manufacture
ed. Forty thousand dollars will be
expended putting the plant in shape.
The Lincoln Stove Co. will continue
in business here.
In this instance it was good busi-
ness man that Medina let get away.
Mr.. Miller should have been enconr-
aged to stay right in this city; to have
kept what little money he possessed
here. Its sorry coincident that Me
dina has let good business projects
get away. It is sorrier one that
she has let good business men get a.
way.

DID COMMISSIONERS"
SCOLD CHAS. SCANLAN ?

A short time ago county commits
sioners and several employees from
the county engineers office went to
Columbus to select number of gov
ernment trucks which had been offer
ed the county.
The party arrived in Columbus, Sc
lected the trucks and were on their
way home before any thing unusual
happened. On the homeward trip the
commissioners and surveyors en-
ployes all drove trucks, Scanlan being
directly behind two employe-driven
trucks.
AS the party rounded a curve in
the road they came upon a bridge.
The first two machines made the cross
over without incident but when Scan
Ian made the turn he had'a little too
much speed and crashed into the
abutment, knocking off hub cap of
the truck, bending the axle, smashing
a light and otherwise denting in the
front end.
The surveyors party upon learn
ing that Scanlan had met with a mis-
fortune returned to the scene and
helped him out of his predicament.
The one thing that stuck in Char
ley's craw, however, was the joshing
he got from the boys who threatened
to tell "THE commissioners" until
bribed to their fullest hearts desire.

WOMEN GET FULL 4
VOTE APRIL 27


Medina county women as well as
their sisters all over. the state will
have just as much say as the men in
nominating and electing the next pres
ident Of the United States unless a
referendum is filed on the Reynolds
equal suffrage bill. They will also
have small say in debating what the
party state platforms will be.
The secretary of state maintains
that the Reynolds bill not only per-
mits women to vote in the April pri-
maries for presidential choice, and for
delegates to the national convention,
but also authorizes them to vote for
delegates to the state platform con-
vention and in the general election in
November for presidential electors.
Assuming there will be no refer
endum filed on the Reynolds bill, the
secretary Of state is instructing
county election boards to prepare to
handle the women voters at the pri-
maries, April 81. His instructions
also are to permit them to vote fol-
delegates to the state convention.

that he, can't come till two or three

has agreed to come for an address q
few weeks later.

DESTROY BANK SAFE
AT SHARON CENTER
John Coler Awakened By Noise
of Explosion and Thinks His
Horses Are Fighting-Scares
\ Robbers Away.
ROB CRESTON STORE;
FLEE THRU NORWALK, o.

There have been some pcrSlSCeHC
robbers working in and about Medina
county within the past week. Friday
night an attempt was made to blow
the safe in the Sharon Center bank,
but the robbers were scared away.
They knocked off the time lock with a
heavy sledge and broke the combina-
ton, and set off one charge OF dyna-
mite.
The explosion wakened, John Coler,
who lives near the bank. He got up
and dressed and went to- the barn to
see il there was trouble among the
horses. On his way out, half asleep,
he noticed two men on the street, one
on each side Of the bank. Finding
nothing amiss in the barn he went
back to bed.
In the morning the damage to the
bank equipment was discovered. II
was found, too, that the watchers on
each side Of the bank, that Coler had
seen, had each worn quite q path IN
the snow as they patroled up and
down to give an alarm. Circumstances
all seemed to point to the fact that i
was Mr.. Coler's trip to the stable
that caused the alarm among the rob
bers and led them to flee with their
work half accomplished. s @
The same night robbers visited 9
clothing store at Creston and loaded
practically the whole stock, valued at
$4,000, into an auto and drove away
The next day a broken auto was lefs
at. q garage in New London for re-
pairs and suspicion pointed to the
owners as the robbers at Creston, and
perhaps the bank robbers OF Sharon
Center. .s
Watch. was set and when, they re-
turned for their n machine Sunday
morning an effort was made to- take
the men in charge. Instead Of sub
hitting to arrest the men put up a
fight, about 80 shots passed between
the posse and the auto owners, but in
the end the supposed robbers escaped.
The local police notified Sheriff Big
Glow and the officers of surrounding
towns Of the facts in the case and
asked the apprehension of the men in
the auto. Sheriff Bigelow and his
deputies were on the lookout but no
one answering the description passed
| thru Medina. Later word was re-
[ceived that they passed thru Norwalk
but that the officers failed to catch
them. AT last accounts the robbers
were still at large and the stolen pro-
Eperty had not been recovered.
