Alaska was bought from Russia
in 1856. for 100000 in gold. Since
that date Alaska has produced over

twenty millions Of copper, five mil

other materials to bring her total out

been done with a very small popula-

The Treasury Department has an
nounced that on October II will
make public throughout tho country
the names OF all Americans who were
accorded relief In Europe when the
war broke out and who have since re-

Last year Congress appropriated
money for the relief protection and
transportation OF American citizens
who were stranded In Europe, and 1t
was stipulated that those accepting
relief should reimburse the govern

able to make repayment who are un-
grateful enough to attempt to avoid
the responsibility.
