COMPUTATION OPPOSED
Polk County Residents Win Ask
 That COughrOn Be Executed.

Mena, Aug. 14.-Reports that peti- tions are being circulateG, asking for the communication of the death sen- tence of Ben Caughron, convicted of the murder of Charles Kirkland an officer, in the raid at Hatton, have caused a stir in Mena and the terri tory threatened by the band of ou.- laws. Counter-petitions are being freely signed today and will be laid before Governor Brough by the fast of the week. The chief objection is the probable weakening of the effect of the determined effor, to keep Polk county free of slackers, deserters and the w. c U. brand of outlaws.
 Those who oppose the communication of Caughron's sentence say that their chief reason for doing so is that it would weaken the determined effort that is being made to keep Polk coun- ty free from sfackers, deserters and the Working Class Union brand of outlaws

YOUTHS TO REGISTER AUG. s4
All of Age Since June Must Report
 on That Date.

Washington, Aug. 14.-Registratio on Saturday, August "A, of all youths who have reached the age of 21 since the second registration last June 5, was ordered today by Provost Mar shal General Crowder, under a proc lamation by the president. The pur- pose is to add quickly to the almost exhausted Class l to meet army draft calls for September.
 About 150OO0 young men will reg ister. Most of them will qualify for Class 1, and, therefore, will join the army promptly within month after their names are recorded.
 Photographic orders to local authori- ties to arrange for the registration have already been distributed. Only men in the armed service are ex- empted from registration.
 It was said at the provost marshal generals office that this registration would be entirely distinct from the icSlSIIdllou ludt VIII De ueCeSSdIy shortly when the draft ages are ex- tended, and it also was announced that the suggested date, September 5, would not be the day for the regis tration or men from IS to 45, even if Congress passes the bill in time be- cause several of the largest states in the Union hold primary elections on that da.e
 The provost marchal has no inten- tion, it was said, of creating registra- tion dates for men reaching 21 throughout the year, but the present registration was made necessary by the approaching deficiency of man power
 There will be no new drawing to establish the order of liability of the new registrants. The provost mar shal generals office announced to-' night that the 1,200 members drawn for tho June 5 registrants would be- sufficient to cover the August 24 registrants in the largest district In the country,

ASHDOWN SCHOOLS WILL
 OPEN SEPTEMBER 3
Eu11@ List of Teeehers Have Now Been Secured A. Gray, Principal, Recently
 Elected.

Superintendent D. P. Holmes an-
 n6ahced yesterday that the Ashdown
 h2tc Schools. will open September BOT the 191s-19 term. At recent
 board meeting principal was secured
 in the person of J. A. Gray from Wich- ita, Kansas. He is a native of Ken lucky. and a graduate of Valparaso University. This completes the facul- ty, which this year will be especially strong in every department. Every 'teacher has had special normal train- ing. It has been very difficult this year to secure good teachers for all the places due to the fact that so many 1places were vacant by resignations and the great demand for teachers at other places, but the board and super iltendent are well pleased with the lineup that has finally been secured, and Q splendid years work is predict

ALLIES CLOSING IN ON
 SOvIETS, WHO NOW FLEE
R0ut of BOlsheviki Seems Approach. ing Rapidly-PeOple Are Said to Be Eager to Help Allies Crush
 TeRtsR AutOcracy.

Washington, Aug. 15.-Events in Russia, from news received today seem to be rapidly assuming the pro- portions of a rout of the Bolsheviki and of nature to bring d1smay to Germany.
 With allied troops rapidly moving south from Archangle, forces of Brit ish, French, Japanese and Americans troops at Vladvistok and operating to the westward and British force at Baku, the Czecho-Siovaks have talk en new heart in their heroic fight against the Germans and Austrians.
 Late dispatches today recorded the advance of the allied troops from Archangle to Pabereshskaia. 100 miles south, on the road to Vologda. The Bolsheviki are retreating and were reported committing every known atrOcity upon the civilian pop ulation which openly has espoused the cause of the allies. The Bolsheviki throughout Russia are reported not only fleeing the advancing allies, but the newly aroused Russians who have learned that the allies are not beaten on the west front, as the Germans and Bolsheviki have been consistently preaching. AS the real news reaches the great mass of the people, the men are reported taking up the arms that they carried home with them when they were disbanded after the debacle of Brest-LitOvsk.

BURTON WALKER IS
 SEVERELY WOUNDED
His Chum, Herbert Mckinney, Fer merly of Ashdown Also
 Reported Severely, Wounded.

Wednesday afternoon Dr. and Mrs. Vaughan of Richmond received a tele- gram frcm the War Department stat ing that their son, Burton Walker, had been severely wounded in action on Ethe 17th of July. No further particu- lars were given. Had he since died word would have been received at once, so the family are comforted with the reasonable hope that he may be on the road to recovery. Burton was one of the very first of our home boys to enlist, and was with the first American division that was sent to France. He has been in France more than year and has been in battle many times. He was with the first to go into the trenches last fall and winter. He was member of the 18th infantry regulars. The Franco-Amer- ican fight in the Marne sector began on the 18th of July, and it is easy to immagine that he must have been in- jured while fighting in that great bat tle. Burton has 3. host of friends and relatives here, where he has lived all his life, who will be glad ot hear or his speedy recovery, and who are proud to know that his wounds were received while fighting for the great est cause. that man ever fought for.
 It was 8 remarkable coincident that on the next day after this news was received the casualty list carried the name of Herbert Mckinney of Texar- kama, as also severely wounded. Her bert is also we'll known in Ashdown, having formerly worked in the employ of Lindsay Bros. His parents live at Texarkanal He enlisted with Burton and was in the same company and regiment. Through it all they have been chums, and when one wrote home he nearly always spoke of the other. It is with regret that ,ne friends of these two boys learn of the injuries. Mckinney was reported gassed several ws:ts ago from which his mother says he had not recovered and she believes that it is to this the report refers.

FRENCH, BRITISH GAIN INl-
 PORTANT POINTS IN WEST
Former on Southern Front, Latter Progress Te1ard Roye-Reperted to Be Evacuating Territory Be-
 tween Albert and Arras.-

New York, Aug. 15.-The fighting on the SommeOise battle front still con- tinues Of a minor character, compared with that of the early part of the week, when the Germans reinforced their line and stopped the eastward sweep of the allied forcse
 Nevertheless, the British and French again have been able to gain ground on two important sectors-the British a short distance northwest of Rove, where they took the villages of Dam cry and Parvillers, and the French on the southern wing of the battle front where they have captured two farms in the process of clearing the hilly and wooded district around Lassigny of the enemy.
 North O. the Somme, between AL bert and Arras, the Germans are con- tinuing to. fall back, and the British are keeping in close contact with them. Thus far the Germans have 6AVOu uQ IuS lOWuS O1 oSdUuOut- Hamel, Serre, Bucquoy and Puisieux- au Mont, and at several points have crossed the Ancre r,ver, with the British following closely. No official explanation has yet been advanced of the retreat of the Germans over this front, but it is probable that the op- erations on the Somme front and the harassing tactics the British recently have employed made the enemy desir- fous of establishing himself on new ground, with the Ancre river a bar rier between him and his foes. At any rate, the Hebuterne salient has practically been ohliterated by the re- ,.irement of the Germans and seeming ly they now will be compelled to make a. readjustment Of their line between the Somme and Arras
