WIRELESS FROM JAPAN.

Tokio, July 30.-The installation of . new high power wireless system be- tween Japan and the United States is occupying the department of com munications. Officials announce that the project is a result in part of the very great congestion and delay in cable transmission, which prevents the desired freedom of communica- tion between Japan and the United States.
 The present Japanese high power station communicates direct with Ha- waii. The proposed station will work with a station on the Pacific coast, the site of which probably will be near San Francisco, distance of A. 400 miles. This will be one of the longest direct wireless services in the world.

CAUGHRON GREETS
 DEATH STOICALLY

With the calm of the peace which passeth understanding, Ben O.. Caughron yesterday walked from his cell in the state penitentiary into the grim death chamber, and on into eternity.
 At seven o'clock, just as the first faint flashes of the rising sun splash ed the chamber walls with gold, the prison physician, with stethoscope swinging from his fingers, turned to the silent watchers in the room and said: Gentlemen, I pronounce Ben c. Caughron dead"
 Not once during the entire time he has been in the penitentiary death cell awaiting execution for the mur- der of Deputy Sheriff Charles Kirk land in draft resister battle near Mena, had Caughron's nerve weaken CT prison officials said yesterday. For two days before the execution he had known that there was no hope of avoiding the sentence, yet yesterday as he stood in his cell listening to the reading of the record which recited his crime and set the day of his death, the crucifix in his hand was held without tremor.
 Perhaps the most remarkable ex- hibition of Caughron's calmncss and mental poise occurred when he espied in the death cell a Gazette reporter who had talked with him two days previously and who had written an article embodying the doomed mans statements.
 Caughron grasped the reporter by the hand warmly.
 tsYou treated me very fairly in the article you wrote and want to thank you for it." he said, in q calm, even voice.
 With his death not 10 minutes dis tant, and he knew it, Ben Caughron could let his mind dwell on an incl dent so trivial in comparison to what was before him.

has been placed a man whom the ln- dclcndent, together vTth everycae whom we have heard speak, believes is peculiarly fitted to make the most of this sections advantages. MT, Mariner, the business manager, makes friends with everybody he meets, and that is a great asset for the organization. He will demon- strate that he is possessed with every other qualification.
 When community becomes use full it will necessarily grow. How ever, it is not quite so important for Newport and Jackson county to ex- pand as it is to become useful. There are many functions to be performed in a community that are far more inn portant and essential than matters of self interest, and the citizenship of Newport and Jackson county are made up of men and women who will exhibit the spirit of cooperation to the last degree. The man who would oppose the Chamber of Commerce would oppose his own interests, and show himJelf to be devoid of any in- terest in his neighbor.
 One great reason why the Cham Der of Commerce will become an in- portant factor here is because the people want to see this community discharge completely its obligation to help win the war. The organiza- ton will make the accomplishment of much war service an easy matter.
 Let every obstacle, every dissent ing thought be removed, and allow the Chamber of Commerce to accom- plish it's full mission.
