CONGRESSMAN L'ENeLE.
ocala Evening Star.

Mr.. L'Engle wants to be in Wash
ington to see the old party again come
into its own. Congressman LEngle
has been improving most rapidly OF
late, and will soon be enjoying his old
time good health and vigor. For
almost four months he has been I'M
able to attend to business, and for
over two months was confined to his
bed The operation, a very grave one,
has removed a chronic trouble that
has impaired Mr.. LEngle's strength
and caused him much suffering for
many years, and when once entirely
recovered and his strength has been
won back, he will enjoy perfect health
again.
Congressman L'Engle wanted very
much, and it was his full intention
after the election, to make a tour OF
the state, visiting every county and
each of the cities and larger towns
and discuss the issues of the day with
his constituents and learn their needs
and hear their views. His heart was
set on this and 1t was a keen disap-
pointment to him when ne found he
would be unable to make the trip.
Mr. LEngle will go tc Washington
" hen congress convenes to work for
the common good of all the state. His
soul is in the work AMI he is fitted
well, in experience and in education,
to carry it out. He will go with the
intention OF making for Florida the
best congressman that the state has
ever sent TO washington. If it is
right and he believes in it. Claude
L'Engle will fight for a principle till
he drops. It is the Stars opinion that
Congressman LEngie VIII make a ma
tional reputation for himself in con-
gress It is the fashion of the inter-
ests and the publications they own 10
sneer at such men as L'Engle. and to
advertise the 1esirability of filling
congress and the legislatures with
mere clerks, who of course can be de-
pended on to do the bidding of the
moneybags that elect them. but the
steady increase OF the number of in
dependent men in our representa- tive
bodis shows plainly that people are
not as ungrateful to the champions of
their rights as cynics and subsidized

WILL REvoLUTioNIzE
THE CUSTOMS SERVICE

Washington, March 4.-Unless con-
gress interferes, the organization of
the customs service viii be revolution
lied beginning July /. AS one of his
last acts, President Taft today sent d
message to congress announcing the
redistricting of the service.
The existing 165 districts will be re-
duced to 40. formed largely along state
lines, and 116 collectors of customs Will
be abolished. Several ports of entry
and a number of supports will be
abandoned. Congress has stipulated
that the new plan must REFUGE the cost
of the customs service to s10,150, 900,
or a saving of 100000 as compared
with the current fiscal year.

The Education
of Farmers.

After all has been said and done the
lives of all men depend on what some
OF them dig out of the soil. Then it
is a matter of first Importance that
men shall be so instructed that the
labor OF their hands shall bring forth
the largest harvested return. To this
end the wiser commemorative are
giving more and more attention to the
art of instructing their farmers.
The state of Pennsylvania is going
ahead in this particular with the ex-
tension of its great agricultural col
lege which now has a yearly attend
ance of $500 students. 1t is proposed
to erect at a cost of nearly two million
dollars, six new college buildings for
the better accommodation OF its diff
ferent departments.
1t is only the educated or what is
generally termed the scientific farmer
who knows how to cultivate the soil
so it will yield him double crops.
BY as much as the supply of trained
men is increased, who may be depend
ed on to feed the nation without rob-
bing the soil of its fertility. who know
how to prevent waste, who know how
to build roads and who use their brains
as well as their muscles, by just SO
much are the foundations Of prosperity
laid.
Florida has made fair start towards
agricultural education and 1t cannot
afford to fall behind. The young farm
ers, and the older ones as well. must be
taught to farm with every advantage
that science can give.

Congress Should
Prepare a Budget.

In his last message to congress Pres
ident Taft repeats what he has before
said that it Is imperative that congress
should have budget to guide it in its
appropriations.
There is no doubt that the budget
system for the control OF finances is
right. but Mr.. Taft is altogether wrong
in his method. He recommends that
the budget be prepared by appointees
OF the president. Congress would not
pay much attention to such budget.
The house OF representatives should
appoint a committee to do this work.
The constitution of the country places
the responsibility on congress AMI a
budget prepared by its own committee
would carry some weight with it.
The United States is the only coun-
cry that has not adopted the budget
system. Most nations have budgets
because they are forced to be econom-
zeal ami must make dollar go a long
ways. This government has always
felt itself rich enough to be prodigal.
But this prodigality has gone far
enough and congress should. adopt the
budget system and make all its ap-
j.. i-ations on a business-like plan.

John Sewer
of Tennessee.

Tennessee has selected her two men
to go into statuary hall in the national
capital. The state has selected An
drew Jackson and John Sewer. or
course Jackson has an inherent right
to go into the hall of. fame. although
he was not native OF Tennessee, hav-
ing been born in South Carolina.
Some of the commissioners who
made the selection voted for Gen. Ma
than Bedford Forrest and the late Sem
ator Edward w. Carmack. John Sewer

the old capital of the one time state
OF franklin. John Sewers part in the
early struggles of this country is well
known to all students Of American his
tory. and his right in the hall of fame
will not likely be disputed.
When the statues OF Jackson and
Sewer are placed in statutory hall they
win be more peaceahle in death than
in life. because in the early history of
Tennessee these great pioneers were
applicable enemies.

Commission Charter and
Public Utilities Regulation.

The result Of the city charter cleo
ton is of course gratifying to the
friends of Commission government,
but whatever the benefits that follow
as result of the Commission Charter
they will accrue to the opponents as
well as the friends of the measure.
The Journal believes that the Conn
mission Charter will give Pensacola
the most effective, the most econom-
ical, and the most democratic govern
ment that she has ever possessed and
that we shall be able to rank in those
respects with the best governed cities
OF the country.
The adoption of the Jones Public
Utility Section is of equal importance
with the charter itself. Under this
section the city will be able to regulate
the rates and service OF all privately
owned Public Utility corporations
doing business in the city. and twill
have the power on the other hand to
own and operate, in the interest OF the
whole people. such Public Utilities as
the public good may demand.
Altogether, the charter and its Public
Utility provisions as adopted by the
mand. te of the people at the ballot
box will put Pensacola on the map as
one of the most progressive cities po-
iftically. as she already is CONNER
cially, in the entire South.

such is the case, I am of the opinion
that any survey which is being made

THE matter is really not IN the

King, however. refused to do and thus
the contract never became effective.

ternoon 10 the utterance of statesman
and a scholar. and the pronouncement
as well of a man who appreciates to
their fullest extent the tremendous re-
sponsibilities of his great position.
President Wilson does not deal at
length with the questions which are to
his administration, reserving a more
lengthy discussion of them probably
for his message to congress. but from
what he does say we may conclude that
he thinks the following subjects, in
the order named. should be immediate
~ considered:
The tariff
Banking and currency
Industrial independence
..ural development
Conservation Of natural resources
These are five great subjects and are
probably stated in their logical order
of Importance. Properly dealt with,
the adjustment of the questions in
