Says the Punta Gorda Herald: "The
Tampa Citizen asserts that if the
proposed reappertionment amendment
is adopted at the coming election, six
additional senators will be provided,
"of which north and west Florida will
grab four, leaving two to other sec
tions of the state" This assertion
moved the Ocala Star to call upon the
Citizen to tell where it got its infor-
nation, and continues: members of
the legislature have informed US that
of the new senators, one is to go to
Pinellas, one to Dade, one to Broward
and Palm Beach, one to Brevard and
St. Lucie and one to the bunch of new
counties cut out of DeSoto." The fact
of the matter is. as the Star points
out, no one knows just which counties
or groups of counties will get the
larger number of the additional sem
ators, and no one will know until
after the legislature meets and ap-
portions them, if the proposed amend
ment is adopted. More pure bunk has
been printed anent the proposed re-

The Post would ask editors of Flor
ida newspapers who have heard wild
stories of floods in the Everglades to
take our word for it that the losses
have been small, the movement of
people out of the Glades not large and
only temporary, and that the water is
receding steadily. Nothing occurred
that proved the theory of drainage
was unsound or the method of execu-
tion of the plan improper.-Palm
Beach Post.
Sure, Friend Post, We'll take your
word every time. However, the Star
didn't spread any of the reports. The
Star has several times heard the Ev-
erglades were drowned, and seen them
come up smiling, and its prime belief
about them is that they will grow bet
ter and better as the years go on.

posing it having worked themselves

amendment will be adopted as to pre-

The present situation is intolerable.
A few cases will suffice. One senator
represents five counties of the lower
East Coast. These counties have one
tenth of the wealth and population of
the state-they have one thirty-sec-
ond part of the power in the senate.
Gadsden county has one senator and
two representatives. Hillsborough
county with five times the population
has the same. Where is the sense or
consistency in this thing Holmes

MR.. DEPE.W

his 88th birthday in an address to

Saturday night, in which he re-
leased to the world his copyright

told hitherto unpublished stories
of the world, showing link by link
a chain Of cause and effect from
Caius Julius Caesar to John Faith
full Hylan.
Mr.. Depew disagreed with the
pessimictic account by Wells of
, the past and present of the world
and saw reason to be hopeful
about the future. After remark
ing that "the discovery of America
in 1892 was the most productive
and fruitful event in history" Mr..
Depew said:
"If the discovery of America
frightened the GRIP OF ENGLAND upon
Ireland, it also provided home
and a new Ireland for the Irish
people. There are more Fri h in

pendants, than there are in Ireland

The disciplined sense of humor
Of the former senator was excited
by the political cry that the Four
Power Treaty was a contrivance
IMPOSED by the able Balfour on
feeble American craftsmanship.
The treaty had the support of this
country and the world, said Mr..
Depew, but he continued:
"But it was for long time in
peril, because intense nationalist
discovered in it unexpected perils.
They said, Yes, the wording IS
plain. but who wrote it??' Then it
develops that, if any of the other
powers than the United States,
and especially Mr.. Balfour, had
anything to do with its composit-
ion, there were in it, undiscover-
able to the keenest vision, elements
of danger.
"Then it transpired that the
treaty was written by Secretary
Hughes with the advice and con-
currence of Mr.. Elihu Root and
Senators LODGE and Underwood.
Then arose the marvel of doubt.
1t was that the greatest interna-
tional talent the United States
possesses, the greatest legal ability

Pitched Battles
With Patag0nian
"Red" HighWaynen

Buenos Aires, Feb. 13.--Losses
running into many thousands of
pesos are being suffered by firms
doing business in the disturbed re-
gions of Patagonia, where the Argen-
tine government is now waging de-
liberate war against the large groups
of bandits and dissatisfied laborers
who have been overrunning that sec
tion. Some of the banks have closed
their doors temporarily, owing to
the lack of proper police protection.
Pitched battles and pilaging of
"estancias" have enlivened the DESC
late territory of Santa Cruz. The
situation is much more serious than
year ago, as on the present ocea-
sion the movement is not primar-
lily an agitation for higher wages and
improved living conditions. The real
cause of the disorders seems to be
the demand Of professional agitators
and their followers for the release
Of numbers of prisoners in custody
on charges of sedition or being held
as dangerous agitators.
Their tactics bring back to memory
those of colonial days in the Argen-
tine. 1t is believed that no less than
1000 men make up the bandit gangs.
They are taking as many prisoners
as possible among the owners and
managers of "estancias" with the
object Of holding them as hostages
and demanding their exchange for
reds now in custody. Work on
the big estates has been practically
suspended.
Upon landing of the Tenth cavalry
sent to protect the ranchers, some Of
the hostages were given up, the
bandits endeavoring to make terms
with the commanders but failing to
do this. The principal hostages who
have been taken and were turned
over on this occasion including Man
ager Macbey of the Armour frigori-
fico, Baron Reille and number of
ranch managers and foremen. No
sooner had this band moved off than
they seized 300 Poems on various
estates and carried them off together
with a quantity of booty.
Here are just few of the depre-
dation that have put Patagonia on
the map of war as an imitator of
the Balkan states, Red Russia and
South China:
Camp stores were Quilted on all
roads travelled over by the bandits.
At one point the owners Of the es-
tacia made hairbieadth escape
while two other hands we're killed
and others wounded.
