Increased resistance by the Ger
mans and weather conditions unfav-
orable to the swift movement OF
troops have tended to slow down the
allied offensive along that stretch of
the battle line from St. Quentin to
Cambria. Here the British, in fight
ing of a local character, have car
ried their lines to Tavricourt wood
and Peiziere. To the south, Field
Marshal Haig's men have taken Yer
mond and Vendelles, the formerabout
five miles from St. Quentin.
On the British right the French
have advanced to within four miles
of St. Quentin. At Liez they cross
ed the Crozat canal and their pa
trolls are nearing La Fere, which is
reported to be burning. With the
fall of LIE Fere only question OF
time, the French also command all of
the region west of the Disc river and
are Tightening their line around St.
Quentin and in the valley to the east

Haste marks the flight of the Ger
mans all along the battle front in
France from the river Aisne to the
old enemy defenses before Cambrai.
The allies are now within striking
distance of Cambria and St. Quentin,
while Lafere is in more immediate
danger and Laon is within range of
French guns.
On the Aisne front the French and
Americans have reached a critical
stage in their advance and indications
point to a stiffening Of the German
defense in an effort to stave off the
evacuation of their strong positions
on the Chemin des Danes. The Amer
leans occupy positions in the woods
and hill south of the river Aisne on
an extended front. On the Ameri-
cans left the French have taken
Coucy lie Chateau and are in possess
sion of their old trenches dominating
the Chemin des Danes. At this point
the French are approaching positions
of vital importance to the Germans
if they plan to further resist. the al
lied pressure toward Laon.
As the allied armies draw nearer
to Cambria, St. Quentin and the nat
ural defensive positions of the Ger
mans in. the St. Gobain forest, the
offensive movement begins to lose
much of the momentum it gained and
maintained while less important
enemy positions were being taken.
However, slow progress continues
to be made by Field Marshal Haig's
British forces in the direction of
Cambria and St. Quentin and if the
operations of the French armies un-
der General Humbert and General
Mangin are successful in over-run=
ming or encircling the St. Gobain
massif, the German retreat must be-
gin anew and with greater rapidity
than at any time since the allied coun-
ter offensive started in the middle Of
July. %}
Cambrai and St. Quentin, the i'm
mediate detectives Of the British
forces in the present phase of the
offensive movement, are almost with
in striking distance.
The Germans evidently realizing
that. little less than disaster would
follow the fall of the St. Gobain for
est, have stiffened their defensive by
taking advantage of the natural po-
sitions. Strong counterattacks against
the French near Laffaux and north Of
Celles-sur-Aisne seem to bear out the
belief that the Germans will not give
up St. Gobain without struggle.

NORTH HELPING WAR
Dawson News.)

Dawson News.l
Not alone in terms of men and
money is the Northland of Yukon
and Alaska helping the Allies.
These two great Territories may
be looked on economically as
twins, working together for the
benefit of the Allies. Their chief
products which are proving of
vast aid TO the Allies in their
great struggle, are minerals and
fish.
Yukon is producing between
four and FIVE million dollars
annually in gold, copper, tune-
stem, coal, silver and lead. Alas
ka is producing similar minerals,
only on a far greater scale. Her
coal projection last year alone
was $500, 000, and Alaska's coal
product is beginning to figure
greatly as an aid to the naval
and the commercial fleets so vital
to the Allies. 1t is expected her
yield this year will exceed half a
million dollars in value. Ii is be-
ing speeded up to assist in the
war.
Last year Alaska's fish pro-
duction jumped from S22, 900, 600
to $42, 900, 600 TT was over $780,
600. 600 Editor. in value. This
year many more big fisheries are
being established in Alaskan
waters. The Alaskan coast is
teeming with the industry, and
the interior waters are being in
vaded for cannery purposes. This
food production is something
enormous. The part this plays
in feeding the Allies is tremen-
dous.
| The richest productive copper
properties of the world are in
Alaska, at Kennecott, where the
profits alone for one year run
SIS, 900, 900. Add to this the
vast gold output of Alaska, and
that of silver, lead, antimony, tin,
tungsten and other minerals, and
some idea can be had Of the value
of Alaska to the Allies.
Alaska also is turning out TIM
Der much needed in aeroplane
work.
Yukon's gold is 8 great factor
in stabilizing the finances Of the
Dominion and the Allied nations.
With all this support being rem
dered the great cause without
any return to the region on mu-
nit .ons and other war orders, the
national governments should be
very generous to Yukon and
Alaska in other matters. 1t will
be good business, to say the least,
to keep these great producers in
the producing class and to induce
them to increase their tribute of
wealth to the nation.

LACK OF GOOD FAITH PROVED

Perhaps nothing more clearly demonstrates the utter lack of good faith in the whole Wickersham campaign than the mouhngs of the Ex-Delegate about the monopoly" which says fastened on Alaska by the refusal Congress to allow the Ship ping Board in it should see fit, to permit under certain circumstances and within limits which it may determine Canadian vessels to engage in American coaswise trade in Alaska, for the period of the war Judge Wickersham has been bowling about this up and down the Yukon rver, counting upon supposed ignorance on the part of his hearers to make the argument stick.
 Judge Wckersham knows, know all who have taken the pains to think twice, that the Government gave a Shipping Board to regulate rates and thing else connected with the operation of ships. lie knows that the Shipping Board has plenary author ty to prevent monopolistc and intoerabe conditions from continuing He knows that if he should go be- fore Congress for regulative legislation Congress would say him: You have it; there is ample provision in the statute books"
 Judge Wickersham knows that there is absolutely connection between the question of permitting for eign shps engaged in war traffic, to carry freight between American ports, in of emergency, when there is American vessel available to perform the service and the question of Alaska freight rates.
 Judge Wickersham knows, also, that Delegate Sul- secured hearings by the Shipping Board in Alaska, previous notice of which given, where testimony on this subject was solicited. He knows that Dele Sulzer elegraphed throughout Alaska urging the people to appear before the Shipping Board. He knows that those who trying to solve Alaska prob lems and not keep them forever with political issues, asked all who interested to appear before that Board and present their evidence. He knows that the day set for his appearance and that of all the others who had complaints in court. He knew it then.
 Why didn't Ex-Deegate Wickersham to Alaska and marshal proof that there was an "in- tolerable freight monopoly" here when the Shipping Board hearings were on? If he believes what he is telling the people, that that is the big in this Territory. and means what he says when he declares his all controlling interest in Alaska why did he not appear at the hearings and make his fight where there chance to obtain results? Was it be- cause he was afraid that the question might be solved and removed from the of politics? Was he afraid that it would not him an issue in the campaign?
