LONDON, May 3.-Kieff has been
captured by the Poles from Russian

the soviets were seriously menaced
by uprisings throughout the Ukraine
Poles were maintaining their Pri-
pet line without serious opposition.
The bolshevik defeat in some sec
tors has assumed proportions Of a
roUt, the Poles claim, although the
fact that Brusiloff, Kiembovsky,
,Cherenisoff and others of the best
generals in the soviet armies. have
been called to command of the red
troops.
The scope of the Russian defeat,
according to the Poles. was attributed
partly to the uprisings cf Ukrainians
in the rear Of the red forces and
partly to the fact that many work
men were called to the colors with
out previous training. ..

SAN FRANCISCO, May 3.-Citi-
zens Of the Golden state who vote to-
morrow to chose a favorite son will
be faced by melange Of charges
and counter charges that might sur
prise citizens of other states who
remember Senator Hiram Johnson
and Herbert Hoover in the light of
past achievements
Johnson, who drove the Southern
Pacific machine out of politics in
this state and who took up the
mantle of Francis Heney and won a
conviction for Abe Ruef, is now
termed an ally of Hearst and "of the
discontented and red-radical ele-
ments Of the eastern states" by the
Hooverites.
Hoover, who fed the millions of
Europe during the war, and who en-
gineered the forces of economy in
this country, is now termed the rep
resentative of Wall street and a
British internationalist by the John.
scnites
Enmities have been aroused that
party solidarity may not be able to
down as the campaign goes on. Each
side accuses the other of plastering
it's candidate with mud and with fos-
tering whisper brigade
Meanwhile, practical politicians on
both sides were busily engaged today
arranging to get out a record vote
tomorrow Many of the precincts
are over-large by reason of the fact
that when they were districted it was
thought there would be no contest in
this campaign. Automobiles will get
big use.
An interesting feature is that re
publicans and democrats alike may
vote to determine whether Hoover or
Johnson shall be put forward as the
candidate Of the republicans OF Cali
fornia.
Here are some of the charges that
have been flung back and forth:
That Hcover's stand on the league
Of nations has been vacillating.
That johnson by not voting on any
feature of the Esch-Cumnins bill
showed be was not a friend of labor.
That Hoover is more democrat
than a republican, as evidenced by
his appeal for democratic congress.
That Johnson represents Hearst
and the "red-radicals."
That Hoover is being aided by the
personal press agent Of J. p Morgan.
That Johnson, though a poor
man, has been expending uncounted
money in his eastern campaign.
That Hoover is not a real candidte,
but has been put forward in Cali
fornia to discredit Johnson in his
own state.
That Johnson will be put forward
by Hearst as a third party candidate
in case Of defeat at Chicago.
