Very little Roadway is being made
in this state in the movement some
what generally prevalent seveI al
months ago for the municipal owner
ship of electric light and waterworks
plants. The proposed purchase of
the waterworks plant of Jackson by
the city government has dropped out
of sight, and nobody seems to have
enoughiinterest in it to resurrect it.
Meridian is to have an election on
the first of August to decide whether
to purchase the waterworks plant.
and it is understood that considera-
BILE opposition has developed. In
some instances where lighting plants
and waterworks are newly establish
ed in Mississippi they are owned by
private corporations.

the POWER OF THE PRESS.

The hanging of Cooke at Green
vile today will be matter for dis
cussion for some time. It was one
of the most remarkable legal fights
that this state or any other has Wit
messed for many years. OF promi-
nent family connection and loaded
to the guadrails with monep every
effort and every scheme that could
be concocked ia the brain of man
was resorted to for the stay of pro-
ceedings and thus cheat the gallows
aud the law. Appeal was made to
the highest court Of this country
after every effort was made to have
the sentence commutsd by the gov
ernor. After all these had failed
and the governor had refused the
prayers of individuals and numer-
onsly signed petitions a body Of a
hundred men and women or more
was Termed and came down upon

The burning oil we'll at Jennings,
La, is safe again, the flames having
been eXtinguished by steam. The
fire had been burning for more than
a week and it was thought there
would be no way of extinguishing it
until some one proposed to do 1T by
steam and practically blowing out
the flames. Now if there was some
way to turn that amount of steam on
hades that wailing and crashing OF
teeth we read about might be
stopped. But then there would be
no future punishment for the many
criminals who are being hanged in
Mississippi just at present.

the governor like a great avalanche.
This was the last act IN the many
chapters of this case but it failed
and doubtless Cooke expiated his
crime on the gaIIows today.
Cookies friends and relatives had a
barrel Of meney and they were de-
termined to save his neck if there
was possible chance. This money
doubtless was handed ont in wads,
and thus every gap was qu,ckly
mended as soon as it was made. Tn
fact there was nothing left undone
that could be accomplished with the
use of money. But it all failed.
Then the sympathy of the COVER
nor was appealed to with all the
force and cunning of the human
mind. But the governor was be-
tween the devil and the dark blue
sea. He could not act in Cookies
behalf, for he dared not. The press
of the state was loaded to the muz-
zle end with shot and shell and had
he stayed the proceedings of the law
for a moment he would have been a
ruined man. He could not even
have gotten job of running blind
tiger In Jackson in future. His sun
would have forever set and he would
have been the most dispisable man
on that part of the earth that holds
Mississippi with the other part of
the United States. Whatever may
have been his private feeling and
sympathies fer the condemned man
he dared not interfere with the pro-
ceedings of the law even had every
citizen of Washington county per-
sonally appealed to him.
To a very large extent this shows
the influence of the press, themolder
of public sentiment. Had there not
been a paper published in the state
the governor could have taken the
risk of committing the sentence OF
Cooke and then the next governor
could have granted HIM a pardon,
but as the press represents the peo-
pie and the people are behind the
constitution, the laws and all the in
situations of the state, the governor
had to succumb to the press even
had he been so much disposed to
have lnterposed with the law in this
case.
But as it is the governor has lost
no friends, not even in Washington
county, and he has made many in
other sections. Besides this he has
set an example that could be safely
followed by his successors.
1t Is stated by those who person
ally knew Cooke that he was enc OF
the most notorious criminals this
state ever had, and after the crime
for which he was convicted and to-
day hanged was committed he boast
ed that the money of his relatives
would not let him hang. But some
times money, as 1T proved in this
case, has but little weight, as the
press, q more powerful agency than
any in nearly all cases, took an active
part and was ready to turn loose its
batteries had the proceedings of the
law been interfered with and Justice
cheated.

that crowd of several thousand per-
sons will gather at the big democrat-

event has been arranged largely
through the efforts of Hon. w. S.
McAllister, author of the resolution
adopted at the last session of the
state Legislature creating union of
the democracy of the south with the
east, and it was expected that Hon.
David B. Hill would be present and

cAPT. HARDY OUGHT no HAVE no
OPPOSITION.

OPPOSITION.
If there Is a man in the state who
onght to be sent to congress without
any opposition that man is Capt.
Hardy. and we believe the voters OF
this district on the second sober
thought will take this view of the
matter and roll up such maioritles
for him in every county that no sec
ond prlmury will be needed.
Why should the voters of this dis
trict take this view of the matter?
We answer, because of what he has
done for the state and especially for
this district, and for what he can and
will do for it if elected to congress.
He it is who gave to this section
the New Orleans and Northeastern
railroad and brought this section into
full touch with the outside world.
Along the line of this road are pros
porous villages, towns and cities with
churches, newspapers, factories and
farms, where before were nought to
be seen but unbroken pine forests OF
public land, utterly worthless be-
cause there was no way of getting
their product to market.
The same may be said of the Gulf
and Ship Island railroad, and all
over this section everywhere are seen
the evidences of his wisdom, fore
sight and untiring energy.
There are multiplied thousands OF
people IN this district that ought to
their dying day bless the name of
w. H. Hardy as their great benefac-
tor. He has not only been the means
oe giving them profitable employ
'ment, but of making thousands OF
them rich.
One man said i'll Perry county in
the presence of this writer that when
Captain Hardy first came through
this county looking out lire of sur
vey for the Northeastern railroad, he
was splitting rails at fifty cents day
to get cash money to pay taxes on his
lands, which then could not be sold
for fifty cents an acre. Now" said
he, "the timber alone on these lands
can be sold for fifteen dollars an
acre." This tells the story in a single
sentence, and there are thousands OF
men who can truthfully say the same
thina
Why should the people or any OF
them yete against him? Oh, some of
them say he is too old. This is the
charge made by the over-zealous
partisans of the other candidates. but
it Is untrue. He is in the very prime
and vigor of his splendid physical
and intellectual vigor.
The men in congress today, vino
shape and guide national legislation
in both houses are nearly all of them
older than is Captain Hardy. The
truth is his age is among his best
recommendations. By 1t he has
gathered large experience, both by
study and by travel. He is a
scholarly man, possessing one of the
largest and best selected private
libraries in the state, and he is well
informed on all questions of state and
national policy.
His character is without blemish,
and his habits are those of the best
type of Christian gentleman, and
the voters of the district Will make a
great and irreparable mistake if they
do not avail themselves of this OPP
portunity to secure his splendid
qualities to represent them in con-
gress.
We cannot believe they will make
the mistake, but that they will vote
for him IN overwhelming numbers
and insure his triumphant election.
