IF THE commerce of any other

the United States is as valuable
in proportion to its population as
that of Alaska. printed government
reports do not reveal the fact Indeed
it may be stated without fear of sue
cessful contradiction that the total
commerce of Alaska during 1914
shows higher per capita value than
that of any other state or country in
the world. For every one of it's 65,-
600 inhabitants, one-half of whom
are natives, the Territory had over
a thousand dollars worth of merchan-
disc and treasure shipped to and from
the United States last year.

DARIS, June 1.-Two battles
y are, in progress in Galicia
according to the reports from
Vienna and Petrograd.
Southwest of Lemberg, the
capital of Galicia, the Teutonic
Allies are driving the Russians
back. General Linsinger is try
ing to hammer his way to posi-
ton from which he can bring to
bear on Lemberg the same
lweke-inch mortars that SO quick
Iy reduced the defenses of Prz-
emysl. ,,r .,y..,.45 -
Lemberg Likely To Fall
Since Petrograd admits a seri-
Gus shortage of ammunition and
artillery, there is disposition
among military critics here to. adj
init that, if the Austro-G Germans
can get within striking distance
Of Lemberg, the fate of that for
tress is foredoomed, .s,-.. ....
In that event, the Russian cam
paign in Galicia would have been
brought, in less than two months
of furious Teutonic offensive, to
the point at which it stood shortly
after the beginning of the war.
Lemberg was the first important
capture made by Russia.
Russians Fight Stubbornly
Russia, however, famous for her
defensive campaigns, is falling
back slowly and stubbornly, tax
ing up strong defensive positions
one after another, and forcing the
aggressors to buy every inch OF
advance at a heavy cost in men.
The German account of the
Galician campaign asserts that
east of Przemysl and southeast
Of Mosciska the Teutonic allies
are. continuing to make gains.
Losses of Slavs Heavy ~ -.
Since our offensive began"
says the Berlin bulletin, eve have
taken 100000 prisoners"
In the other battle, raging on
the. extreme end of the Galician
line, the Russians have opened a
strong offensive and have made
noteworthy gains, driving the
reutons from the Lower San back
to The Leng River.
