RUSS RETREAT ON
600-M|LE FRONT:
Position of Denikine's Army Is
Becoming More Critical as
Reds Advance.
CENTRAL ASIA IS THREATENED
Bolshevik Advance Guards Reaci,
Richest Mineral Section of Russia
-koIchak No Longer Factor
In Military Affairs.

London, Jan. 3.-The position Of
Gen. Denikine, the anti-bolshevik
leader in south Russia, daily is becom-
Ing more critical. Reports received by
the war office show that his retreat is
continuing along virtually the whole Of
his 600-mile front, and that the boil
shevist drive against his center with
the purpose Of cutting his army in two
las brought about critical situation.
The advance Of the bolshevist forces
in the Donetz coal basin Is developing
rapidly, according to a soviet wireless
dispatch received here from Moscow.
1t is reported that all the railway juno
tions between Bakhmut and Lugansk
have been occupied and that the "red"
| lines are less than 65 miles east Of
Lugansk. With the capture Of Nov
| acherkasky thousands of prisoners
were taken, according to the soviet re-
port, which declares the occupation OF
Ilovayskoye deprives the enemy of the
only railway leading up to the front.
Further east the reds are imperiling
the left flank Of the Caucasus army
The bolsheviki evidently have succeed
ed in brilliantly concentrating over
whelming forces against Denikine's
somewhat thinly held center and are
exploiting their advantage to the full
est degree.
Another threatening situation exists
in Trans Caspia, where the bolshevik
claim that they have occupied Djebe
station, eighty miles east of Krasno
vodis, in their advance toward the
town. Great re-enforcements continue
to arrive in the Merv region Of Trans
Caspia from central Russia. Thi'
makes the menace along the Persian
end Afghan borders critical
The red propaganda is increasing ii
intensity and all the evidence indicates
that the soviet government entertain
far-reaching anti-British designs IL
central Asia.
The war Office report says that
may be considered that Gen. Kolchal
has ceased to be a factor In Russian
military affairs.
Esthonla Scores Success.
Dorpat. Jan. 3.-Study Of the agree
ment signed by Esthonian and bolshe
vik representatives preliminary to a

LEADERS HOLD A CONFERENCE
County NOnpartisan League Members
Meet With McKaig and SamueIs.

Ray McKaig, leader of the nonpar-
tisan league in Idaho, and H. F. Sam
uels, the wealthy mine owner of Wal
lace and the owner of a 10000 acre
ranch at Samuels, Idaho. who is the
nonpartisan league candidate for U.
S. senator, were in town Friday in
conference with county leaders
In Boundary county several men,
bers of the nonpartisan league were
elected on the democratic ticket for
county offices, at least one "leaguer'
having been requested to run by some
of the democratic leaders. The non
partisan league members have also
been invited to and did attend caucus
meetings of the democrats during
the primary campaign and it is now
noticeable that the democratic county
newspaper that was so bitter against
the "leaguers" two years ago, has not
been publishing anti-league material
recently.
1t is claimed that the conference
held Friday was a secret one and was
open to members only and that al
least three men who are nominees
on the county democratic ticket were
in attendance.
1t has been rumored that the non
partisan league state ticket is not to
be voted this November and that the
league members will swing their sup
port to Nugent for senator instead
of voting for Samuels. Mr.. Samuels
was asked regarding this matter Fri
day and did not deny the truth of the
rumOr
