"Does Thincs,"

Senator Taliaferro may not be what
is termed a brilliant man, but when
it comes to doing things" for Florida,
he is Johnny on the spot" and that
is what the people want these days.
The secret of the Eastern states con-
trolling national legislation is that
when they send man to the senate
or house who docs things" they keep
him there term after term, and the
reason the South and West have had
so little influence in national legis-
lation is because they are continually
sending new men to congress. The
influence of a senator or representa-
tive in congress increases with eacn
succeeding term, and unless a man
of the ability of w. A. Blount could
take his place, it would be the height
of folly on the part of the people of
Florida to displace Senator Taliaferro
at this time-Gainesville Sun.

The Columbia State thinks that
President Taft has "cut loose from the
American people and arrayed himself
impudently with the American plum
derers." The State is mistaken. Mr..
Taft has not changed his position, re-
Gently at least. 1t was the American
plunderers who elected him and they
knew whose side he was on before
they chose him as a candidate and
later as the president.
The Times cannot refrain from dip
ping into the Pensacola paving prob.
lem long enough to say that putting
down wooden blocks Is wasting money
more foolishly than it can be done in
any other way. The same money
would lay half as much vitrified brick,
and the brick will outlast five series
of wooden blocks.-Tampa Times.
For the information of the Times
we beg to advise that Pensacola's
wood block paving, though not yet
completed and consequently not yet
accepted by the city, gives promise of
being entirely satisfactory and, in the
judgment of many of whom The Jour
nal is one, 1t is much more desirable
than brick paving. Pensacola's paving
contract was divided between wood
and brick and when both are com
pleted it will not be hard to determine
which is the more desirable.

Senator TaIiaferro's STRENGTH.


1t is now very generally conceded
that the withdrawal of VIM A. Blount
from the senatorial race will greatly
strengthen Senator Taliaferro's
chances for election. With only the
four remaining candidates in the field
there can be little doubt of his cleo
ton. His support by the press is
greater than the entire press support
of all the other candidates combined.
Mr.. Taliaferro has the advantage of
IL years experience in the senate, the
advantage of having been a faithful
and successful servant of the state,
and of being a successful business
man through qualities that make him
valuable senator. The people of the
state know that his election and FL
ture service will not be an expert
ment. The people of Florida are
learning that in order to have strong
man in the United States senate they
must give him the opportunity of
long service. The long service of
congressman and senators in the
United States congress has given the
North its great power, the short SER
vice of such officers from the South
has long been an element of weak
ness. We should have learned this
lesson long ago, but it is not too
late to learn 1t yet.-Leesburg Com

ROCKEFELLER
GIVES s10,00O,00O

CHICAGO, December 21.-The an
nouncement was made yesterday that
John D. Rockefeller has completed his
great gift of endowment to the Uni
versity of Chicago, comprising a total
of thirty-five million dollars for educa-
ton in this institution.
The last installment of this gift, the
details of which were completed yes
terday, amounts to ten million dollars
and rounds out nearly a quarter of a
century of contributions by Rockefeller
in behalf of the university.
One of the surprises in connection
with this munifcent gift is that with
the legal papers setting aside this half
score of millions, the designations oi
John D. Rockefeller Jr., and Frederick
Gates, the personal representative of
Mr.. Rockefeller on the board of trus-
tees of the university, were also filed.
While no reason is given for this
action on the part of the two Rookie
teller trustees, it is presumed that it
is for the purpose of notifying the un'
iversity authorities that with the com.
pletion of his great gift he desires
them to feel that the fund is no longer
under the supervision of himself.
In making these gifts of millions Of
dollars to the University of Chicago it
has been the idea of their donor u
help deserving young men and women
to a university education who other
wise would be unable to go through
college.

LARGEST VESSEL AT
THE HILO WHARF.

HILO Dec. 19.-The oil steamer
Santa Rita, Captain Boyd, the largest
vessel that has ever pulled alongside
the local wharf, came in last Satur-
day afternoon, from Honolulu, bring
ing oil for the Hilo Railroad Co. The
wharf looked very small when she
was in her berth, the vessel being fouI
hundred and thirty five. feet long
| and, as one of the officers described
her, being shaped a good deal like
a match, very long and slim. She
discharged 10000 barrels of oil here.
The Santa Rita can carry full
cargo of $4,000 barrels of fuel oil,
which would bring her down deep in
the water but was light when she
arrived here, drawing only twenty
feet. She is 1000 tons register, but
can carry about 1000 tons of dead
weight in her cargo. She was built on
the Great Lakes with her sister ship,
the Santa Maria, the two being then
known as the Minnewaska and the
Minnetonka. They were used for the
grain trade, but were afterwards sold
to the Union Oil Co., which brought
them to this part of the world, where
they run from Port Hartford, up and
down the Pacific Coast, covering from
San Diego to northern Alaska, and
making occasional trips to Hawaii.
In order to get the two big yes

NAVY HEALTH GOOD

The health of the American navy
was better during 1909 than in any
other yearly period of the last decade,
and the death rate was the lowest
ever recorded for that arm of the
hghting service. These gratifying
facts are announced in the annual re-
port of Surgeon General Stokes, and
are attributed largely to the increas-
ing recognition of the preventive, as
well as the curative, functions of the
medical department.
The record death rate was five per
LOCO. The percentage of sick from dis
ease and injuries during 1909 was
4.Gl9, as compared with a ten-year
average of 5.21S. From disease alone
in 1903 the percentage was 1869,
which is lower than any year since the
Spanish American war.
Require Ability to Swim.
Ability to swim well, in the opinion
of the surgeon general, should be in
sisted upon by naval authorities as
prerequisite of officers and enlisted
men upon their entry into the Navy
or Marine Corps. This requirement
he says, would contribute to the saw
ing of a considerable number of lives
The present annual physical test
for naval officers, consisting of walk
ing or riding a prescribed number
of miles within time limit, according
to the consensus of opinion of medi-
cal officers, the surgeon general says,
has utterly failed to accomplish the
design to encourage regular daily
exercise, very few having derived an,
real benefits, while considerable tan
gible harm has resulted. DR.. Stokes
recommends that more recreative and
continuous exercise be substituted,
and for the younger personnel of the
navy he urges the adoption of the
Swedish system of physical training
which is followed in the British SER
vice.
In view of the high rate of typhoid
fever in the navy, the surgeon general
recommends that the entire personnel
under fifty years of age be vaccinated
against that disease.
The establishment of a medical re-
serve corps which would be available
in national emergency is urged by
the report and the construction of
two more hospital ships is requested
The surgeon general also urges the
adoption of the bubbling- spring device
for drinking fountains throughout the
entire service, ashore as well as
afloat

REINFoRcEMENTs TO

Diaz administration in the state of Chi
huahua, the government yesterday dis

that the government troops now in the
