BUSINESS GOOD IN
 TWELFTH FEDERAL
 RESERVE DISTRICT
Republican A. p. Leased Wlrel

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, Aug. D. Twelfth Federal Reserve district are stated to be in satisfactory condition according to the official report made public today. Production of foodstuffs in practically all lines show substan- tial increases including the salmon pack, Idaho apples, and the California prune crop. Stimulated by the ship building program, lumber production is said to be at it's maximum. La Dor shortage is reported as becoming serious. Following is the report in detail
 About one-third of the depo sits in the national banks of Ogden Utah. now aggregating approximately $9,- 0000 are from banks in the tribu- tary territory, evidencing a growing importance as a banking center, be- cause of which the federal reserve board has designated Ogden as a re- serve city. The only effect of this is to increase the amount of the re- Quired deposit with the federal reserve bank from z per cent to 10 per cent of demand deposits. This increases the number of reserves cities in this district from to 8.
 Between May l, 1917, and June 20, 1917, the total deposits in the na- tional banks of these eight cities de- cllned S14 ,SOO.O00, showing decrea SC of S3,200,000 in Los Angeles, $9, 400, 900 in San Francisco, $300,000 in Portland, $1,1OO,O00 in Spokane, $500, 900 in Og- den and $900000 in Seattle Increases were shown by the banks in Salt Lake City and Tacoma. This shows the effect of checking for investment in Liberty bonds and for all other pur- poses. Excluding desposits from oth- CT banks, however. a slight net in crease is shown. those of San Fran cisco and Los Angeles alone showing a decrease-slightly more than $1,O00, = GOO in each city. Between the state ments of March , and June 20, the state banks of California show an in crease in deposits of $S63,000.
 Bank clearings of 19 principal cities of this district during the first six months of 1917, increased 37 per cent over the corresponding period last year, Salt Lake City leading with 53 per cent, followed by Seattle with 45 per cent and San Francisco A per cent.
 Recent high temperatures in south '4iAOi itiei iedciou tle eAtFdOr- dlnary maximum of 116 degrees at some points. Citrus fruit was un- favorably affected. particularly navel oranges, which mature about Decem- Der, the damage being estimated as high as 75 per cent, with 50 to 50 per cent damage estimated for Valencia oranges and 25 per cent for lemons. Beans olives. Walnuts have likewise suffered somewhat. Hot winds in Washington and Oregon, coming at a critical time have also somewhat curtailed the crop of wheat Subse- quent rains and cool weather in these tMo states have been helpful. Inci-

Russian Statement

PETROGRAD, Aug. 2.-The Russian official statement says
 Western front:
 Northwest of Chotin, between the Zbrocz and Dniester river, our troops abandoned their positions in the region Of kudrynce and Nina
 Between the Dniester and the Pruth, the enemy has continued his offensive. Toward evening the enemy occupied Perebijkovcy, CZiorny, Potok, Dabrin- ovce. Horochovce and Kuozurmutour, our troops retiring eastward.
 Tn the Carpathians the enemy has pressed our troops to the west of the river Putna. In the region of the Mol davlca, our troops, beating off an Aus trian attack, undertook an offensive. They drove back the enemy and cap tured two officers and 152 men and & machine guns
 That some degree Of order and is- cipline is being restored in the armies of the southwestern front. as indicated by recent official communications,

war office, in his weekly talk today to the Associated Press, it will neces- sarily mean prolongatiOn of the war.
 We cannot longer count on any great material assistance from Russia. This means a greater burden on the other entente allies and for the United States it means that she must come into the field as soon as possible and with the greatest possible force"
 General Maurice continued:
 This week the battle in Flanders was an entire success. General Sir Douglas Haig fixed a definite line of objectives and speaking generally. he attained it. On the southern third of the front he attacked and gained his objective easily. On the northern third the enemys resistance broke down so completely that General Haig felt jus
 tified in permitting his troops to go well beyond the objective In the cen tral third we fell a little short of the objective owing to stubborn enemy re- SiStance."
 General Maurice said that the Brit ish commonder's next move was to de- termine another objective and then, after the customary process of prepar- ation, to proceed similarly to achieve it. In cases of this kind" said the di- rector of military operations, "the ob- jective line depends mainly upon the range of the artillery. The attacks must be patient and methodical. In this way we can gain ground and in flict heavy losses on the enemy with out heavy losses to ourselves. That is the system we used at Arras and at Messines and the one now being used in Flanders
 'ln this weeks battle we co-operated with the French. There were about six times as many British troops as French soldiers. Of the British four fifths were purely English and one fifth Anzac Australians and New Zea- landers), Welch and Scotch No Irish
 or Canadian troops participated"

REMAINS UNCHANGED

Europe has a set of primary interests, which to uS have none, OF very remote re- latiou. Hence, she must be engaged in ire qucut controversies, the causes of which are essentially foreign to our concern. Hence therefore, it must be unwiSc in us to impli- cate ourselves, by artificial ties, in the ordi- nary yicissitudcs of her politics, or the ordi- nary combinations and collisions of her friendships OF cnmitics. '-Georgc Wash iugtou.
 When George Washington uttered the above he spoke for that time, approXi- matcly one hundred and forty years ago. IL was sound reasoning then and, although nearly a century and a half have since been laid away on the shelf of Eternity, it is just aS sound reasoning now as it was then. Never since the Bunker Hill and other hap pcungS of that period have the interests of America and Europe been inimicable Her controversies have, as Washington stated, been essentially foreign to our concern. '
 If left to herself, the controversies of Europe will ever remain of little or no in- tcrcSt to America. It is only when some European power tramples on or attempts to tramplc on American rights that the lat ter country will take cognizance of her acts. It is only to protect her rights that America will ever become embroiled in European conflicts.
 Americans may have their preferences and their hopes regarding the present Euro bean struggle for supremacy, but she will never voluntarily become party to a con flict that will aid one monarchy in it's ef- forts to reduce its monarchial enemies. When America takes a hand it will be for Ithe sole purpose of protecting her own rights and not to aid any particular Euro Ipean principality or power

If licensed liquor dealers of both Doug las and Juneau would comply with the law requiring them to register purchases of m- toNicants in quantity to be carried off the premises. there would not be half as much bootlcggiug and drunkenness among the natives Also, if the back doors of several saloons were kept closed Sundays, as re- quircd by law, it would help some. One man who has made his home on the Douglas beach for the past nineteen years, is au- thority for the statement that there has been more drunkenness in that community within the past six months than during any similar period since he has been there. The only reason that can be logically advance; for this condition of affairs is that booze is more easily obtained now than it ever has been Somebody is knowingly, wilfuIIy, per- sistcuty and repeatedly violating the law by supplying boozc to persons who are known to be bootlcgging and for mo other reason than that it brings in the money.

The time has come when, if the Amcri- can people are to be protected from Stmya- ton, the government must take a hand in regulating the price of foodstuffs A crisis has been reached in the food situation in the east where one class is waxing fat and opulcnt through spcculating in provisions and where thousands of others are starving on account of not having the money with which to compete with battling Europe in the purchase of the necessities of lifc And the latter countries will continue to have plenty of money with which to purchase American food products so long as they are ablc to sell their bonds. With Americans it lis different They are charged with the re- spousiblity of feeding themselves and the result k that those of them not connected with such enterprises as are being fostcrcd land fattcncd by war, are finding hard TOW to hoe. The government should not permit such conditions to exist but they do exist, notwithstanding the fact that the cNcgcn- cics i'm America are now almost as great as i'm the fighting countries. The claim that America is more prosperous than ever be- fore in her history is true only in part. Some people are making more money than ever before, while the rank and file of our people arc eyer and anon moving the buckle in the starvation belt up another hole.
