Some improvement in the growing
cotton crop was noted during the past
week, the few days OF clear weather
and warm sunshine lettering the con
dition somewhat, but the plant shows
the erect Of long continued and ex-
cessive rains in the earlier period Of
It's growth, and the stalk is sickly and
yellow in great many portions Of
the state.
The crop is at least three weeks
late, taking the average of the state
and has been but poorly worked ow-
ing to the rains and scarcity Of la-
Dor. Much depends upon fair and
warm weather now and the ability to
obtain labor.

Another Turn in Rawlings Case.


Old man J. G. Rawlings will not
be hanged at Valdosta Friday, after
all, as Saturday morning Judge Emory
Speer in the Federal court at Ma.
con, granted an appeal to, Attorney
Cooper and the case now goes be-
fore the United States supreme court
next October. When Cooper went
before Speer early Saturday morning
he applied for habeas corpus proceed
ings in order to stay the execution
of sentence. The judge said no.
Cooper appealed from the decision on
the grounds that there were no
preachers upon the jury that tried
Rawlings, and Rawlings himself had
been preacher Of the gospel for
six years. This turn Of the tide
brought Judge Speer's action and Mr..
Cooper announces he will appeal 70
the pardon board for the boys. He
will ask for a Communication OF the SEN
tence 10 life Imprisonment.
Judge Speers action will stay the
execution.
