And ther to Hebe I resortcd
She was Minerva In my rhymes

And remember how at times
I pictured her az Aphrodte.
And yet her heart could not stir;
In sooth. her apathy unnamed me.
My highfown language puzzled her
She did not seem > understand mo.

Tyrol Votes for German Union

Inc eIecliOu III IHe IyFOl SuHudy
was held against the protect OF the
Allies and also against the direct wish
Of Austria as expressed by the Vien-
nese Government. Despite this oppo-
sition the Tyrolese with display Of
considerable enthusiasm brought out
almost the entire electorate of the
province and registered the result of
the voting, which was overwhelmingly
in favor of union with Germany.
Under normal conditions before the
world war the Tyrolese had no great
affection for the Germans, especially
for the Bavarians, their neighbors di-
rectly across the border. They were
inclined TO be resentful Of any en-
croachments by the Bayarians, who
were at one time their rulers, and
they proudly claimed certain privi-
leges secured TO them from Napoleonic
times through the noble sacrifices of
their national hero, ANDREAs HoFER,
In the Austrian cause. Austria had
no more ardent supporters than the
Tyrolese.
The Tyrol could hardly be consid-
cred a rich prize under the present
conditions. The most productive por-
ton Of the province, the southern, Is
now incorporated in Italy. The val
ley Of the Inn is practically the only
agricultural district and there are few
mineral resources or none at all. The
chief dependence in the past was the
tourist trade, which centred In and
around Innsbruck. The one possible
source Of wealth IS apparently the
exploitation of the water power of
the Vorarberg region; report last
November was to the effect that Ber-
lin interests were seeking to control
this and also the Vorarlberg railway,
the only east and south route from
the east end of Lake Constance. An
other point which would arise for In.
ternational consideration If the Tyrol
should become German is that the
southern boundary Of Germany would
be pushed down against Jugo-Slavia
and Italy.
The Tyrolese do not assert that they
had authority from the Allies to hold
the election; they speak Of it as a
sentimental plebiscite" for the ex-
preston Of their views. They declare
that they were not violating their un-
derstanding with Austria in that the
Tyrol merely acted as member OF
voluntary federal union. Two other
provinces, Salzburg and Syria, which
were also to hold plebiscites reconsid-
cred at the last minute, declaring that
they believed that their bond to Aus
tria was such that they could hold a
vote on union with Germany only if
the whole OF Austria were to vote on
the matter. The Tyrolese election has
the appearance Of a trial balloon, an
effort to see just how far the Allies
will entertain a plan for Austrian
fusion with Germany. So far the
Pan-German advocates In Austria
have had no encouragement that the
old question can be safely reopened
and they are not likely to find more
hope as the results in the Tyrol are
carefully investigated.

Expenditures could Of course be
controlled and there Is nothing ex-
traordinary in the fact that these
actual and estimated figures are close
together. But there was no way Of
controlling revenues. and with the
changing business conditions of last
year II would have been impossible
without the carefully drawn depart
mental estimates on probable re-
ceipfs of al kinds to guess what re-
ceipts would be.
The end Of the fiscal year OF our
Government Is only a short distance
away, but even the Secretary Of the
Treasury has no such accurate pic
ture of what the national balance
sheet will look like on June 80 next
as the British Chancellor OF the Ex-
chequer had whole year In advance.
The British budget for 192122
promises n smaller surplus than the
f230 100000 of the year just gone.
Payments on American debt interest
are included In the expenditures and

British Budget Results.

Great Britain's achievement in re
turning a surplus Of revenue over ex-
penditure for the fiscal year ended
March 81, 1921, Is remarkable for
several reasons.
The efficiency OF the budget system
In drawing up the national balance
sheet in advance, permitting the treas
ury to measure its revenue cloth and
cut Its expenditure coat accordingly,
is again thoroughly indicated. The
accuracy with which Chancellor
CHAMBERLAIN was able to forecast in
April, 1920, what the condition Of the
Exchequer would be at the end of
March this year is striking. Actual
results Just given out compare with
his estimates a year ego as follows:

IN COURT TWICE
! in HUNDRED YEARS

LAKELAND, May 14.-When Uncle
Henry Baker appeared in court here
last week to testify against two negro
women whom he charged with having
cursed and abused him, he told Judge
Allen it was the second time in one
hundred years he had had dealings
with the law.
Maggie Barrett and Dora Ash, sis
tiers. had accused the daughter of I'm
Gle Henry with having weaned Dave
Barrett, husband Of Maggie, awav
from his spouse. After some detective
work, the sisters testified. Maggie
found her 1920 model six cylinder
touring car parked in front OF Uncle
Henry's home and Dave and Uncle
Henry's daughter in the immediate
vicinity. This development precipi-
tated row which resulted in Uncle
Henry filing a complaint against the
sisters and the placing of the pair
under bond to keep the peace.
Uncle Henry testified that his wife
VINO is ninety years Of age, was i'll and
that his daughter had been summoned
home to assist in caring for her. Dave
he said, at his invitation had called
only to pay his respects to the patient.

ICOU DENIES FENCE
BILL COALITION
lRY JOHN c. TRlCE.)

TALLAHASSEE, May 14.-It- ap
pears that Senator Igou, of Lake, was
misquoted in stories sent out from Tai
lahassee a few days ago to the effect
that he would introduce the state wide
no fence bill sent here by the no fence
league and in charge Of j. w. Sample.
of Haines City.
Mr.. Sample showed the bill to Sem
ator Igou and the latter suggested some
changes in the bill which would make
it more acceptable to him but says
that Mr.. Sample was entirely mistaken
in thinking he would put the bill in.
even with the changes made. The
senator would vote for a state wide no
fence law If one is put in because his
county expressed itself at the primary
as in favor of such a law. However
he feels in no way obligated to pre-
pare a bill or even to introduce one
and as a practical man, conversant
with the trend of thought in this ses-
sion of the legislature, feels that a
state wide no fence law would have
absolutely no chance Of passage at this
session. OF course that feeling would
not have the effect Of deterring him
from voting for such a bill.
1t Is fact as the present writer
has pointed out several times, that the
no fence sentiment, however strong it
may be at home, has mighty little
standing in this session. The CORE
spondent's judgment, as expressed to
Mr.. Sample and to others, is that a
state wide no fence law, even merely a
referendum to the people, as is pro-
posed would not get as many as 20
L.
many people in the legislature who
feel that this is not the time to pass
such a bill though 1t is probable that
a full majority could be found who
would say that such a law must come
eventually. This statementsis merely
a gauging of the sentiment among
members, not 'of the sentiment at
home. So far no bill has been intro
duced and the prediction is made as
the correspondents own, that when
the bill is put in it will not pass.

that of the state OF Florida VS.. Viz

pending in the supreme court. Mr..
Sinclair has put 200 into improve

nearly everything he has in the

has been compelled to mark time in
the making IL improvements that
would mean all to him and much to
his community and section. by the
suit brought by the l. /. Board.
His title to the lands he proposes to
improve by using the riparian rights
dates back to the United States gov
eminent in 1852. 1t comes through
Capt. Nv. j. Bailey a Seminole Indian
fighter. who took title from the gov
eminent in 1852. four years before the
state passed the act to benefit COM
merce known as the act of 1856, which
the supreme court has declared un-
constitutional and to cure which the

land as state sovereignty land. His
work was stopped, his money is tied
up. nearly everything he has, he can
not borrow anything while the title is
clouded and he has been for four years
In this situation. State officials tell
him frankly that they picked him

they could prove their contention on
