Death of
BENJAMIN E. McLin.

Florida has lost one OF her faltnrui
public servants in the death Of Ben
iarain e. McLin, commissioners OF
agriculture. A good citizen, true
friend of the people. and 8 man who
has lived q life Of usefulness has gone.
TOO much cannot be said Of the
noble character Of BENJAMIN e. McLin
and. while his earthly career is st an
end. the influences Of his kindly dis
position, his optimistic nature, and his
uplifting ideals viii live always among
the people he served so well. His CT
fcial record is without blemish and
the once, OF commissioner OF agrtcui-
ture has always been Kept at a high
state of efficiency.
The duties Of this Office are Of far
more Importance than the public
realize, for this Is one Of the most I'M
portant positions in the state. reQuir-
ing the services of man vensatile
enough to. supervise such branches Of
the state business as the convicts,
public lands, inspection Of fertilizers.
state chemists Office agricultural
statistics, immigration, and the states
only bureau of. information. These
duties Mr.. MeIan performed with that
sincerity Of purpose which few men
give to their work, ana It was his con-
seration to his work that has kept
this office up to its present high state
Of efficiency.
Benjamin p. McTdn came to Florida
in 1886 and since that time he has
been a developer and builder. He
first engaged in the saw mill business
and orange culture. but the big freeze
and a disastrous fire destroyed both
of these businesses. He served in the
state senate, from Lake county and it
was his good record during the three
terms there which probably paved the
way for his election TO- the office Of
commissioner of agriculture which he
had held since 1900.
Florida cannot have too many men
like BENJAMIN z. McIin. The entire
state mourns with his family in their
bereavement.

A Man Who Can Make
And Spend Money Pronerlv.

Several days ago Mr.. Carnegie ex-
pressed the opinion that it is more
easy to make money than it is to
spend or distribute it properly. There
may be truth in his statement. or it
might be an attempt to excuse him
self in the eyes of the public because
ne seldom gives any funds except as a
monument to himself, which is, APP
parently, his idea Of judicious giving.
If Mr.. Carnegie feels that he is not
capable of distributing his vast for
tune, he might emulate a F1oridian,
who not only makes large sums OF
money. but gives it ay-iudiciously
This man is Captain w. ]. Hillman,
OF Live Oak, and of him the Lakeland
Telegram says:
Live Oak has captain Of industry
who is also philanthropist, who
knows how to use money to the best
advantage. Every school child of Live
Oak who gets on the monthly honor
roll is presented with a dollar by Mr.
Hillman. and it is said that he has
given away about $1,000 in this way
during the past year. It is also said
that the general average of scholar
ship IN the Live Oak school has been
greatly raised by these benefactions.
Now, there's what we consider a good
citizen. A man who has the ability
to make money, and the goodness of
heart to use it as he does presents a
rare combination Of qualities OF head
and heart, and not only his home town
but all Florida should feel pride in
him. Capt. Hillman, we salute you!
This is only one instance of Captain
Hillman's generosity. He has been
helping the people Of Suwannee .coun-
ty in hundreds OF ways that have
never been mentioned in public print,
for his little acts of kindness are done
because he loves and would help his
fellow man. More than a dozen prom
Using young men owe their present
state of prosperity to Captain HiIlman
who gave them helping hand when
1t was needed, and there are few peo-
pie known to the Live Oak man who
have not been the recipient of some
personal favor from him, although
not necessarily financial one.
Just at this time Captain Hillman
is building a hard road across his
home county at his own expense. be-
cause he wants to do IL for the benefit
Of the good people of that county.
Captain Hillman is the kind Of man
that make the world better and Live
Oak is fortunate to have him as a
citizen.

Lest They Take
The Fatal Step.

Every leader in the Democrats
party realizes that the success of the
party in the elections next fan de-
ponds largely upon the conduct Of the
members of the Democratic congress
Therefore the friends Of Oscar Under
wood should appeal to him to guard
his footsteps lest he lead the party
into the mire.
AS leader of the house forces, Mr..
Underwood is placed in a position Of
responsibility. He has proven to be
equal to the task which has been set
before him. but whether unintention-
ally or not he appears to be unwilling
to travel road that needs to be and
must be gone over.
IS Mr.. Underwood afraid of the
money trust? The Journal hopes that
he is not and asks those nearest the
Albanian to counsel him that he
may not shirk his duty by refusing to
Join with Chairman Henry in an in
vestigation OF the money trust.
The Journal has not felt perfectly
satisfied with the monetary commits
sion and the public in general is not
satisfied with the financial bill. If
the bill is all that it should be it will
stand a congressional investigation
and It win give tho people confidence
in it., No matter how much merit a
measure may have. if the people are
slSeptieal about it. the measure is a
bad one. for nothing that creates dis
trust among the people is good for the
government.
In view OF all of this, and realizing
that the present Democratic majority
in the house is merely the result Of
the peoples belief that the Democrat.

looking bills it Is very necessary thai

promised that if given the power the,
would do 1t.
Mr.. Underwood has shown that h.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1912-02-02

IS an able leader where he has cared
to lead and should he be swayed by
the powers that be to refrain from
making this investigation he would
not only hurt himself, but would hurt
the entire party.
Speaking about this investigation
the indianapolis News, one of the in
dependent newspapers of the country
with a wide influence, says:
"The subject, therefore, is a fair
one for investigation. The great New
York bankers and their associated IN
terests have direct relations to general
business Of the people, and also to ma
tionaI finances. One of the objections
to the proposed Aldrich currency bill,
for instance, is that with it in force it
would be easier than 1t is now for the
Wall street crowd to dominate. the
banks. We do not now discuss the
objection thus raised. but refer to 1t
simply for the purpose of showing
that the feeling of the people in re-
gard to this so-called money trust
stands in the way of doing many
things that perhaps ought to be done.
Therefore, it seems to US that the
subject is one that congress might
well investigate. National banks are
the creatures of congress and as sucn
are subject to its authority. But the
important thing is that the truth
should be known either in order that
the fears may be dispelled or that the
evil may be corrected. No harm can
come from such an inquiry. On tho
contrary. it ought to accomplish much
good. Those who insist that there is
no money trust surely should be glad
to have the fact demonstrated. These,
Of all people. ought to welcome the
investigation.

The announcement in The journal
yesterday morning that John NJ.

railroad commissioner will add cont
siderable interest to that race. John
Neeley Is very popular man through
out the state. and justly SO. for he
has taken advantage Of every oppor-
tunity to make friends, and his public
record has been one that commands
approval. During the time he was
secretary of the railroad commission
it has been said that he was the rail-
road commission. and his experience
IN that capacity and his legal ability
constitute q combination to make the
best railroad commissioner. Mr.. Nee
ley is q progressive Democrat and will
probably have a strong following in
