Fourth of Original Army.

The Germans. from a date shortly
after the outbreak of the war. supplied
the losses in their first line and reserve
troops from the second and even the
third line, so that il is safe to regard
all the German troops in the fighting
line as much of the same quality as in
the first few months of the war.
1T is calculated that the first line troops
lost about 30 per cent in casualties and
the reserves about % per cent. their places
being taken by recruits from the 1914
class and from other categories and re-
formed units. including the 1915 class of
recruits.
since then they have again lost about
30 per cent in casualties, SO proba bly,
there remains only about % per cent of
the original first line troops, to which
must be added the men slightly wounded
who have returned to the fighting line.
Total German Casualties.
THE German casualties in killed.
wounded and missing reported to June 80
totaled 1,612,444 men, of whom 306, 1913
were killed. 15,SoS died of disease and
540,723 either are missing or prisoners or
are so seriously wounded to put them
out of action for the remainder of the
war. Since June 80 there has been heavy
fighting. probably bringing the total loss
up to 100000 for the year.
Assuming that half a million men
We're only slightly wounded and re-
covered. the effective loss is assumed
to amount to 1,OU0,oD0. in addition to
which probably half million men are
wounded who are absent from the
front on leave in hospitals. This
makes the total net loss for the year
100000. of whom from 100000 to 45O,-
900 were killed
The Germans. it is calculated. at the
beginning of the war had 5000, 900 men
available for military service, and that
number might be increased by a mil
lion or a million and a half if every
man of military age gave his service.
The only reasonable suggestion. there
fore. for the fact that the Germans
have only :,200,00O men in the lighting
line is that they are unable to supply
more than that number with equipment.
From the total of from S,00o.OO0 to
9,OOoooo men must be deducted the
] 100000 net loss for the year and the
same number of men required for
making arms and ammunition"

j. S. OFFICIALLY TOLD
COTTON IS CONTRABAND
State Department Now Will Prepare
Note Protesting Against New
British Order.

Official notification was received by
the State Department today that cot
ton and cotton products had been
placed upon the contraband list by
Great Britain. Ambassador Page cabled
the department the text of the procla-
nation of King George:
The State Department will proceed
now to prepare note to the British
government holding that because cot
ton has many other uses than the
manufacture of explosives it cannot
lawfully be regarded as absolute con-
ira band
1t was indicated at the State De-
partment today that objection would
be made to the requirement under the
contraband order that American cotton
shippers assume the burden of proof
that their cargoes would not eventually
reach Germany and Austria and that
in amount they We're not in excess of
the normal consumption of the neutral
country to which they are consigned.
1t was explained at the department
that this same object was sought as to
all classes of goods. including cotton.

department has objected

Declines to Give PLEDGES

The declination of the British en-
bassy to give any pledge as to what
will be done with any particular cotton
shipment Is understood to be based
upon the fact that it will be for the
home authority to determine what is
the normal consumption of the neutral
country to which the cotton is con-
signed.
Warships probably will continue to
stop cotton ships to make sure of the
neutral destination of the cargoes and
their cases may be sent to the prize
court.

The local camp of the Arctic Broth erhood is finally and frincely haused, with the eonvenienees that the most select members of clubs can desire. For some weeks past the most active members of the camp have kept them selves busy with the result that a club room nicely fitted up and ad- joining the lodge room has been com pleted.
 It is the intention of the club members to keep the place up-to-date with an ample suply of magazines an : newspapers for the convenience of it's members who may desire to spend their le.sare time at the club. One of the results of this enterprise has been the large increase in the mem bersip with daily applications for ad- mission.

THE TRUTHABOUT
 ALASKA Eitdor, John A. Sleicher
 Tells About Trip Alaska Is Misunderstood Also Most Misrepresented of U. $. Possessions

The Progressive Miner is in re- celpt of a copy of an article written by John A Sleicher, editor and p6b fisher of the Leslie Illustrated Week ly, in which MT. Sleicher relates his experiences and observations obtain ed during his recent visit to Alaska
 few weeks ago the eminent editor of the widely circulated weekly made round trip on the steamer Watson of the southeastern and southwestern Alaska route for the purpose of ob- servation anr acquiring knowledge at first hand.
 The following is ill part what Mir Sleicher says:
 Alaska is the most misunderstood and misrepresented section of the United States People generally, and sincerely, believe that the name Alas ka is synonymous with snow and ice and couple it accordingly with ice cream freezers and cold drinks Yet the principal cities of Alaska along it's southern coast line-1uneam Ket- chikau, Cordova, Valdez and Seward do not average as cold in mid-winter as New York and are seldom as cold as Baltlmora and Washington dur ing cold waves
 In the great central valley of Alas ka the coldest days of winter are not as cold as reported from time to time in the prairie states of the United States, like Nebraska, Montana and North Dakota. Stock raisers and farmers are going into Alaska on every steamer from Seattle to look the country over.
 THE VICTIM OF PANIC
 Thus far the astonishing mineral and industrial wealth of Alaska has been its attraction Wideawake cap. italists have invested millions in fish cries in gold and copper mines ill railroads and in oil wells. They were preparing to open Alaska s enormous deposits of coal and to do develop ment work on every hand, on the larg- est scale, when suddenly a senseless outcry, a panicy "scream, that Alas ka was being despoiled, checked the advance of prosperity. Signs multi ply that public opinion is experience ing a decided reaction and that it will insist on giving men and women the freest chance to open Alaska, subject only to fair and square regu- lation such as everybody will be will ling to accept.
 WHAT IT COST TO VISIT ALASKA What does it cost to visit Alaska and how much time does It take9 For purposes of illustration I will give my own experience. Four first-class lines Continued on Page A.
