Tell Their People They Will Put

Germany Down.

London, Feb 16.-The countries
fighting against Germany, Austria and
Turkey up to the present time have
thrown only third of their strength
into the field To maintain this force
and to bring the remaining two-thirds
into action will cost $4,000, 100000
during the current year. This an
nouncement was made in the house of
commons Monday by David Lloyd
George, chancellor of the exchequer
who, with Winston Churchill, first lord
of the admiralty, gave the British pub
lie perhaps a closer view of the ma
chinery behind the great struggle than
any that has been afforded since the
outbreak of the war.
MI Churchill declared amid cheer
ing that Great Britain finally had de-
cided to clamp on every ounce of sea
pressure to choke off Germany's food
supply in retaliation for the German
submarine policy, while Mr.. Lloyd
George drew additional cheering by a
reference to loans to countries which,
he said, he expected would throw in
their lot with the allies These coun-
tries the chancellor did not name ID
was the first time that a reference was
made in parliament of such expecta-
tons

A measure has passed the senate Civ
ing power to parole inmates of the in

Idaho into two congressional districts
predicted last week that the legisla-
ture will provide for each division.
Senator Elliott has secured the pass

land BILL providing for the creation of
Improvement districts in northern
Idaho.
The senate has also passed the house
constitutional amendment resolution
submitting to the electors the question
of allowing 100 sections instead of %
sections of state land to be sold in any
one year.
Disappointment was expressed by
many that the senate decided indefi-
nitely to postpone the bill by Kiger
and MCGOWAN, purposing in the future
to elect county commissioners from
fixed districts in each county.
The lower house continues its long
drawn-out debates on bills. 1t has
spent lots of time on the troublesome
glander bill, which passed the senate
last week. Much opposition was de-
veloped to paying owners of stock for
animals killed by reason of CHAMBERS.
The bill passed, however. By its pro
visions approximately $4,000 is APP
propriated. contrary to the general
program of economy.
The bill permitting the state to raise
the interest on the highway bonds to
