SOVIET ARK Is

Riga Now Believed to BE Destin-

Crew

Washington, D. c.. Jan. S.-The SOW
let ark Buford with it's cargo OF 249
radical aliens is about to enter the
kiel canal according to official dis
patches received here today. While
still refusing to Disclose the destina-
ton of the ship officials said "a very
good guess might be ventured since
passage through the canal has be-
come known"
1t was believed that the Buford
would go to Riga, port in Livonia
to discharge its radicals for trans
portation across the country into SOW
let Russia. .
So far as has been made known
negotiations for the transportation of
the radicals across one of the Baltic
provinces adjacent to Russia have
been completed and the government
will await the outcome of the Buford' s
voyage before deporting any more

Northern Cities Are Anxious TO
Secure Oceah.tO- Ocean
e. Highway
) SHOULD BE IMPROVED
All Counties Should Cooperate
in Keeping Road in Best
Condition

The Red Trail, the east and west
highway across North Dakota running
through Bismarck, will become one of
the most popular routes Of overland
travel during the 1920 season and for
that reason all counties through
which th\; national highway passes
should exert every effort to have their
portion Of it in perfect condition when
tie automobile tourist starts trek
king eastward and westward.
This is the opinion of George N
Remission, secretary of the CONNER
cial club and active worker in the
good roads movement and national
parks highway project. Mr.. kenis'
ton says that Minot and other cities
in the northern part Of the state which
are, not situated on national high
way are bending their energies TO-
ward securing coast-to-coast thorough
fares similar to the Red Trail
HAS FINANCIAL VALUE
'The year just past demonstrated
in an unmistakable manner the fl
nancial value to a community. Of the
Ted Trail said Mr.. Remission today
"and every county in the state
through which it passes should pride
itself on the manner II which the road
is kept. This should be made the
incest highway in the northwest, the
different counties should cooperate
with each other in keeping the Red
/ Trail in the finest condition during
the spring, summer and fall months
when the travef is heaviest. w.
''The Red Trail is known from one
part Of the country as the most beaut
iful scenic route for automobilists In
the United States and for that rea
son it is constantly growing in i'm,
pOrtance.
If we wish these tourists to take
away with them a good impression ol
our ci;, county and state, we must
make their travel here an enjoyable
one. Good hotels, restaurants, gar
ages and other necessities help ere
ate this impression, but the main es
, sential to satisfied tourists is goot

Plumb in presenting his plan de-
clares that the existing industrial
system is crashing around our ears
that wages have no relation to the
value of service and that profits arc
"wrongfully eXacted.'
Profits on the investment the plan
provides, would be reaped By society
in the form of better and cheaper
service, by capital in guaranteed pro-
lection of investment and a fair rate

of a better wage and share Of saw

Halvor Halvorson, Democratic
Leader, Sees Attorney
General Picked
COMPARES HIM TO TEDDY
MinOt Man Believes Head of De.
partment of Justice Ap-
pealS to Masses

If Attorney General A. Mitchell Pal
mer doesn't stub his toe he is likely
to be the democratic nominee for
president and possibly Woodrow Will
sons successor in the White House, in
the opinion of Halvor Halvovrson OF
Minot, who has long been one of
North Dakota's most prominent dem
ocrats. Mr.. Halvorson, who has been
in a hospital here for a week receiv-
ing treatment for a fractured elbow,
discussed the national situation while
waiting for train to carry him to
Fargo yesterday. .
Mitchell is a man and fighter
said Halvorson. He's the sort of
man the common herd likes to meet.
| first made his acquaintance at the
national convention in st. Louis Pal
mer was big man even then, the
head Of his own state delegation, but
he was always approachable, and
had a most enjoyable visit with him.
He has a jaw like Roosevelt had, and
much Of the Rough Riders punch;
he's comparatively young man and
a conner and if he makes good on this
cleanup Of the reds there:ll be such
a popular demand for him from with
in his party that he cant fail to win
the nominations. Then II some man
like Johnson should win the repub-
lican nomination believe the conser-
vative factions Of both parties would
rally to Palmer and would elect him.
Halvorson hasn't much hopes for
McAdoo. Hes Wilson'S son-in-law
to begin with, which is no crime, to
be sure, but Americans are averse to
keeping any job, aad especially the
presidency, in one family. Then his
attitude during the coal strike, and
his recent declaration in favor Of the
q ntion OF the railways and for an
industrial democracy will, l believe
kill him with the big ajority of Am
orleans who are well fed up with this
sort of thing. 1t is my humble per.
sonal opinion that we can't win with
McAdoo, and l doubt very much ii
he can win the nomination if Palmer
makes good on this big cleanup of his
anIbecomes a candidate.
"Palmcr. I believe, would make a
wonderful campaigner. He likes to
meet people, knows how to meet them
and he leaves a mighty good impress
sion. TO my mind. unless he should
fall down between now and the date
of the national convention, he is our
one white hope. don't know any
republican now in the field who could
beat Palmer, If he finishes as. we'll as
he has started.

Two Especially Menacing Devel-
opments Are Cutting in Two
Of Denekine's Army and Al
legged Capture Of Town OF
Krasnoyolisk-Northern Per:
+, sia May BE Overrun and Baku
Taken

London, jan S.-Thc situation IN
Iussia Is about as bad as could pc
from an anti-Bolsheyik point of vic"
according to British war official re-
ports and there are few signs lndlcal'
ing any likely Improvement. Ihere
are two especially mcnacing dcvcl,
opmcnts. In the first place General
Denekine's army has been cut in two
through the Bolshcvik push to the sea
of Azov and it's fanks have been
pressed back leaving a large. gap.
In addition there comes a clam
from the BolshcvikN of the capture
further cast Of, the town OF krasnoV-
Olisk on the Caspian sea end While
this is not confirmed il is generally
accepted as true.
MAY OVERRUN PERSIA
The capture of this important port
it is pointed out, creates the grave
possibility that the reds may ovcrrun
Northern Persia and occupy Teheran
which probably would mean the estab-
.lishment Of Bolshevik rule in Persia
The taking of Kras permits the reds
not only to control large part OF he
important Krasnovolisk-Ne railroad
but gives them free access to the
Caspian. There seems little then to
prevent them from gaining control
of the Caspian from the volunteer
fleet. Once in possession of this area
there remains only a small British
force and the poorly organized Per-
sian forces between the rels and the
cooccupation Of Teheran and northern
Persia through which exists the pos
sibility of their obtainingNontrol of
the whole country. ,'
BAkU LIKELY TO FALL
Baku with its important oil supply
on the western coast of the Caspian
seems likely also to fall into the Boil
shevik hands and its occupation would
provide a base for further operation
against the rear of Denekine's harG
pressed right wing.
If the Bolshevilt reports are true
General Denekine has suffered a con-
siderable disaster for not only have
the reds severed all land communica-
ton between his left and right wings
but they have captured large quanti-
ties of war materials.
