London.-The reports that the allies
have occupied Strumitsa and landed
at Enos, which was recently trans
ferred from Turkish to Bulgarian rule,
have caused a more optimistic feeling
throughout the allied countries.
An important incident on the British
side of the war is the resignation from
the cabinet of Sir Edward Carson, the
Ulster leader, who was appointed at
torney general last May on the forma-
ton of the coalition ministry.
AS to the progress of the near east
ern campaign, it is known from both
Serbian and German accounts that
Field Marshal Won Mackensen's army
is meeting with greater resistance
than was expected Although it is
probable that the Serbians eventually
must fall back on stronger strategic
positions in the north, the fact that
the allies are bringing heavy forces
against the Bulgarians and SO placing
them that the Bulgarians will be com
PEELED to divide their armies gives
hope here that the Germans may be
baked in their latest attempt to reach
the sea and bring assistance to the
Turks
All along the Serbians and their
Montenegro neighbors, who also are
being attacked, are offering very stub
born resistance to both Austro-Ger
mans and Bulgarians, and while they
have given up number of towns and
positions, they have not reached the
line on which they expect to make
their stand
The Bulgarians, so far as can be
learned, have made progress only il
the zlotokopska valley, near the river
Morava, north of the town of Vranya
where they blew up a bridge. There
is no confirmation, however, of tht
report that they cut the railway il
this district, the bridge which they de
stroyed being wooden one near thu
railway. The Bulgarian force which
penetrated the valley is not larg,
one.
On the other hand, it is pointed out
the capture of Strumitsa is of rea
strategic value, as it's occupation per
mits the defense of the southern en-,
of the railway and compels the Bul
garians to keep a force there.

Washington, Oct. 18.-National de-
tense PLAINS of the administration,
calling for an expenditure in the next
fiscal year of more than $400,000,000
for army, navy and Notifications, are
now completed. Secretary Garrison
forwarded his estimates, already ap-
proved by President Wilson, to the
secretary Of the treasury and Secre-
tary Daniels submitted his estimates
today after going over the final de-
tails with President Wilson.
Estimates of government expendi-
lures for the next fiscal year total
about $1,240, 000,0 900 and are the largest
ever submitted in time of peace. Esti-
mates for the departments, except
state, war and navy and possibly com
merce, are about the same as last year.
Secretary Redfield, it was believed,
would ask for increased funds for ex-
tending American trade abroad.
Additional governmental revenues
will be necessary, either through leg
islation or bond issue, if congress
approves of the increased department
al expenditures.

To Create Continental Army"

Secretary Garrison's plan to increase
the regular army from $1,000 to 140,-
900 men under six-year enlistment
requiring two years of service and
four years in reserve, will give about
100000 reserves in six years, accord
ing to war department calculations.
The continental army, which is to
be created by means of six-year en-
listment of two months each year for
three years with the colors and three
years of reserve subject to call, will
at the end of the six years give to-
tai OF 100000 men. This trained citi-
zen army, together with the regulars,
will give, with the $4,000 national
guardsmen, a mobile army of more
than 100000. in six years.

Everybody to Help.

Employers, throughout the state, cor
porations, manufacturers, professional
men, tradesmen and business men of
all classes are to be asked to con-
tribute, as their share in the national
defense, permission for their employ
ees to engage without serious financial
loss in two months military training
during each of three years.
This is an essential part of the adj
ministration's plan for raising a citi-
zen army of 100000 men in six years,
which, with the regular army of $14O.-
600 men and 100000 reserves, would
give a rtained force exclusive of state
militia, of about 100000 in the event
of war.
Bonners Ferry herald. [volume] (Bonners Ferry, Idaho) 1904-current, 1915-10-22
Depends on Patriotism.


The success of the plan, officials ad-
NIT, depends not on the appropriation
of congress, for its cost will be COM
paratively small, but on the patriotic
response of employers, to whom an
appeal will be made to furlough as
many men each year. at different sea-
sons, as they can spare and who wish
to join the proposed continental army.
Administration officials are conf
dent that even though it is proposed to
enlist only $4,000 men in the year in
the continentals, or a total of nearly
100000 in the first six year period,
more than that number would be at
tracted by the outdoor life of mill
tary camp if they could be assured by
their employers that their positions
would not be lost or their earnings
seriously decreased. The proposed en-
listment requires two months service
for each of three years, and liability
for service during the remaining three
years only In event of war.
Army and Navy Program.
The army plans for more than l.
100000 trained men in six years, and
the navy's program of 10 dreadnaughts
and six battle cruisers within five
years, both of which will be presented
to congress with the endorsement of
President Wilson, were the absorbing
topic of interest here today. The
proposed army appropriation bill will
be $1S2,000,000, or an increase of s72,-
600, 900 over last year, and that Of the
navy os $216,000,0O0 or $6S,000,000
more.
The total defense budget of nearly
$500, 100000 is an increase of $780,
100000, which it is reported is to be
raised by bond issue and increased
revenues expected from return to
tariff duties removed last year.
Added details of the navy plan be-
came known Tuesday. The five year
program includes, besides the 10
dreadnaughts and six battle cruisers,
So coast submarines, 10 seagoing sub
marines, so destroyers, Is scout cruis-
ers and five gunboats. Two dread
naughts will be built each year. Two
battle cruisers will be built the first
year, one the third, two the fourth
year, and one the fifth year.
To Distribute Money Evenly.
This plan was agreed on in order
that the appropriations out of the
$500, 100000 fund to be expended for
new ships during the five years might
be evenly distributed through the va
rious sessions of congress.
Thirty Submarines Wanted.
In the first years program Secretary
Daniels has recommended the building
of two dreadnaughts, two battle cruis-
ers, % coast submarines, five ocean
going submarines. IL destroyers,
scout ships, an increase of 5000 enlist
ed men and legislation for the ap-
pointment of $50 more midshipmen to
the naval academy.
For the army s72.OO0,O00 more than
last year will. be asked and for the
navy a s6S.OO0,0O0 increase, making
