WILL MAKE CRUSADE.
Judge Cochran Wants to Suppress
 Lawlessness In Neshoba County.

Meridian, Miss, August S.-(Special)- Judge Robert F. Cochran, the successor of Judge G.. O. Hall on the bench of the Tenth judicial district today opened court at Philadelphia, Neshoba county, and in taking up the duties of his office deliver ed very impressive charge to the grand jury and laid down a rigid set of rules for the guidance of the court and officers. He impressed upon the citizens the fact that he proposes to make an earnest crusade against lawlessness in that county.
 Seventeen members of the military com panies of Meridian left this morning for Biloxi under orders to act as guards at the grounds.
 The heavy rains for the past week in Iauderdale and surrounding counties have caused much alarm among the far mers as cotton has already begun to show the effect of so much rain and is deterior- ating very decidedly.

 'sThe application for the communication of sentence of John w. Burley is denied. This man committed the most hideous crime known to our laws and twice be- fore he has committed a crime of a sim liar, though less horrible character. In my judgment there Is no justification whatever for paying heed to the allega- tions that he is not of sound mind, al- legations made after the trial and con- viction. Nobody would pretend that there has ever been any degree of such men tai unsoundness shown as would make people even consider to send him to an asylum If he had not committed the crime Under such circumstances he should certainly be esteemed sane enough to suffer the penalty of his monster deed.
 ''The crime In question Is one to the existence of which we largely owe the existence of that spirit of lawlessness which takes form in lynching. It Is crime so revolting that the criminal is not entitled to one particle of sympathy from any human being. It is essential that punishment for 1t should not only pc as certain, but as swift as possible. The jury in this case did their duty by recommending the infliction of the death penalty. It Is to be regretted that we do not have special provision for more sum- mary dealing with this type of cases.
 "The more we do what in us lies to secure certain and swift justice in deal Ing with these cases the more effective ly do we work against the growth of that lynching spirit which is so full of evil omen for the people, because 1t seeks to avenge one infamous crime by the com mission of another infamy
 "The application Is denied and the sem tence will be carried into effect.

RIVER RISING RAPIDLY.
Rains in Southwest Georgia Have
 Swollen the Chattahoochee.

Columbus, Ga, August S.-(Special.) The Chattahoochee river is on the first boom of the year. Usually Columbus is treated to 'big river" in February or March, but this year, owing to the extraordinary drouth, the stream never got beyond it's usual stage. It has been raining for three days in Georgia, all most continuously, and the stream is now rapidly rising.
 The river has risen twenty feet at the Columbus wharf and the muddy waters are still climbing notch after notch. So well are the power plants arranged that they have been discom- moded but little by the big rise in the stream. A portion of the mills at the lower falls are shut down, but all the rest are in opeartion as usual.
