PLEASE MAKE STAND FOR IDAHO

During my recent trip to California
where l resided for five years, from
45 to so years ago, was very much
interested in noting the unanimity
that every citizen of California stands
for the state of their adoption. In
the entire trip through the state l
did no once hear word against any
other portion of the state. Each and
every man seemed to be enthused
with the feeling that he lived in the
best state in the Union, and he did
his utmost to let that fact be known
If his own town voted heavy taxes for
good roads, the citizens regarded that
not as a burden, but as profltabie

part in an exposition, that also was
regarded as an investment that
should give large returr-.
| was informed in the California
building at the EXPOSITION that the
seven southern counties or the state
expended one-half million dollars in
preparing and maintaining their ex-
hibit in the California building. AS a
result of this enterprising and liberal
way of looking at public questions
and extending the glad hand to each
and every man who comes within
their borders, California is steadily
desirable citizens from
other states.
While conditions in many respects
in California are equal to those in
Idaho, yet the enthusiasm and the
supported liberality, are
with every enterprise advertising
California and helping to build up her
interests in a marvelously successful
way.

ACTIVITY IN
 FRENCH INDUSTRIES
Reported By Minister of Dabor Mar tin Who Has Conducted an
 Investigation.

Paris, Feb. 25, 12:15 A. Mn vestigations made by Minister of Labor Martin show that the activity of French industries and commerce has recovered to a large extent since the first month of the war. The num- Der of employees now Is only 20 per cent. less than normal. Figures ob- tained from 31,000 establishments employing in the aggregate more than one million people, show that about half of them were closed temporarily by the mobilization order and that they lost about two-thirds of their workmen at that time.
 Since mobilization was completed the number of factories open has in- creased 43 per cent. and the number of workers 83 per cent. Many es- tablishments which were running only two or three days week in August now are operating normally and some of them even on an overtime basis. The plants which are most active are those producing articles needed for carrying on the war.
 Workers in the textile, leather and me etal trades have more than doubled, while those making clothing have in- crea sed 80 per cent and chemicals 75 per cent. Increased activity also is shown in the pottery, glassware, and woodwork indus- tries. Reports of officials are said to show that the situation is steadi- ly improving.

BRITISH AROUSED BY
 AMERICAN PROPOSALS
Public Interest m Germany Also
 NotICtaby QlChtned.

London, Feb. 25, 12:43 ?. m.--The proposals of Washington to Great Britain and Germany, which are in London assumed to embrace the aban- , donment of Germany's self-declared war zone and the adoption by the bel hgerents of some definite policy re- garding foodstuffs to the civilian pop. ulauons, have noticeably quickened the public interest both in this coun- try and in Germany in this delicate diplomatic situation.
 The British press as a general thing is restrained in tone but the average Englishman plainly resents what he considers a hint at an attempt to in- terfere with the absolute blockade of Germany should Great Britain care to enforce this with her sea power Tn the meanwhile and inspita of the sinking of four more British mer- chantmen, involving the loss of four lives, Great Britain still holds off from declaring food destined to Germany to be contraband. IL is believed that if this step is taken it will be post poned until the American proposal has been discussed at length.
 Will Reserve Right.
 Just what this proposal Is the pub lie neither here nor in Berlin is aware It's only information has been gleaned from the meagre and qualified des- patches from Washington. There would seem to be no doubt, however. that Great Britain will reserve the right to declare food to be contraband time eh iy especially as Germany's so-called blockade has been enforced with all the power Germany has at her com mand for a week past.
 How the British cabinet feels about this matter would appear to have been plainly indicated by the statements made by Foreign Secretary Grey, Premier Asquith and First Lord of te Admiralty Churchill, all of whom have more than hinted that drastic retaliatory measures might be expect ed at any moment
 German Claims Denied.
 Now that the Russians have made a stand on their own soil, the fight ing in the eastern f.rena of the war is resolving itself into mass of con- tradictory statements ard counter claims. The German claims of a v'c- tory in Russian Poland are circum- stantial and detailed. Tie Russian denials, while emphatic, are sweeping and general.
 1t would appear from despatches reaching London that at the present moment neither the Austrians nor the Germans gre making headway any where in the line from the Baltic to the Carpathians. British observers are calling attention to the fact that there apparently mas been no decisi-e battle at the northern extremity of the line to prove whether the recent German advance will be of lasting value or not.

LITTLE HOPE TO PASS
 SHIP PURCHASE BILL
At Present Session of Congress Admit Administration ScnatOrs.-Ap-
 propriation Bills Rushed.

Washington, Feb. 25.-With only six working days remaining of the present session of congress, prospects of enactng any legislation aside from the appropriation bills before ad- journment was regarded by senate democratic leaders today as very slim.
 While reports continued today of revival of attempts to put through the government ship purchase bill in accordance with the wish of Presi- dent Wilson, administration senators admitted there was little hope of doing so because of republican op- position to the measure. Prospects of passing the river and harbor bill in it's present form also is anything but bright, and 1t is expected that joint resolution will be substituted for it appropirating about 3o,ooo,o00 for continuing existing projects.
 An indication of the intention of administration leaders to speed up" work on the appropriation bills is seen in the fact that the senate after pass ing the post office appropriation bill yesterday worked far into the night on the agricultural appropriation bill. carrying about $23 3,0O0,00O, Except for a few disputed items-including an appropriation of $400,OOO for dis tribution of seeds which was stricken out by senate ommittee-consider- ation of the measure has been conn., pleted Senator Maritime was to fight for restoration of the provision.

New York, Feb. 25.-On the eve of her sixty-seventh birthday Ellen
 Terry, the famous English actress. underwent an operation for
 the removal of cataracts at the New
 York Eye and Ear infirmary. The period required for recovery from such an operation is from two to three weeks. It is believed that the trouble has been removed and that it will no longer interfere with Miss platform. Interest in the operation on the best known of English ac- tresses was heightened because it was performed only a day after the ,oper- ation by which Mime. Bernhardt lost her right leg. Miss Terry, who stopped in this country to give a few lectures on her way to Australia to her English home, has been troubled with the cataracts for some time. She announced in Philadelphia two weeks ago that she was to have the opera tion performed, adding, 'It doesn't hurt, but it will keep me in America for month, while my daughter is on Waterloo bridge watching for the Germans" Her only worry, she said at that time, was the interruption of her knitting for the soldiers, a work in which she had been constantly en- gagged. Miss Terry's first appearance on the stage was on April 2S. 1850, as boy, Mamillius, in ''The Winters Tale'' under the management Of Sharles Kean. Her completion Of fifty years on the English stage was celebrated with a jubilee matinee at Drury Lane theater, London, on June 12, 1906, at which Mme. Duse, Sig nor Caruso and M. Coquel1n were present to honor the actress, who was the stage partner of Sir Henry Irving for so many years.
