GIFT OF ROCKEFELLERTO FOREIGN MISSIONS

Sbmetnlng considerably out of theusual order of things was the protestito the American Board of Missionsagainst receiving a donation of 100

000 tendered John Rockefellerthe ground that the money had

teen acquired in a manner not con-

sistent with the teachings of Christ-ianity Fortyohe thousand dollars of

the amount had already been paidever to the board when Rev Washing-

ton Gladden made the protest TheMemphis Commercial takes a sensibleview of the matter and has the fol-

lowing to say regardingThe prudential committee of the

American Board Missions hastoday a positive answer to Dr

Washington Glatttlens protest as toreceiving the 100000 donation fromRockefeller

Dr Gladden declares that thisIs tainted with crime and should

not be received by a Christian organ-ization He states that Rockefellerwrung it from the people using ille-gitimate means in the process thatthe money IB not morally Rockefellersto give but belongs to the people

This statement Is a sufficient rea-son for the American Board ofslons to receive the gift This boardas1 we understand it is an agent forChristianity and It is inthis capacity that Rockefeller offersIt the 100000 There floes not appear to be any conditions attached tothe reception of the money which ex-

act from the board the exaltation olthe name of Rockefeller nor is thereany requirements connected with itthat call for of gratitudeto the donor

if Rockefeller after finding himselfpossessed of guilty money de-

sires to return some ot It to the peo-ple and selects this board asdium there seems no good reason

should not act Certainly it is nowimpossible make restriction to theparticular 100000 It Is Impractica ton tn rttairto it nro rata among all

themeWhy-

Iitttz

the TlctlmS of the rich mans manyschemes and no doubt the universal

is that the money willbetter use by the American Board

of Missions than lying as so much am-

munition In the arsenal this greatcaptain of Industry

Guilty money when pOssible shouldbe returned to the victims Whensuch restitution is not possible thenthe sooner it leaves tne guilty handto become factor in the workChristianity and humanity the betteria the world served

No religious nor humane associa-tion need hesitate to accept suchmoney On the contrary it is theduty of these organizations to

a trust of this kindtfays that thespirit inducing the ac-

ceptance oE the trust be made plainand namely that suchfunds are not accepted as redoundingto the glory Of the guilty donor butas evidence of some repentance on hispart Further that the organizationaccepts the trust as a istributingagent alone recognizing that In thiscapacity it is far better equipped thanthe guilty donor to accomplish themost good

At least one newspaper fcas been dis-

covered which Is in favor of con

gressional junket to the Philippines

tender escort of SecretaryOf the proposed trip the Dir

jjningham Ledger saysThere Is no reasonable objection to

the junket of the to thePhilippines The sending of congress-men to the islands is a costly way toeducate our people but It is the onlyway He is a narrow congressmanwho only knows his own section Truea man is sent to congress to representtie district which elects him but heis expected to vote on the measuresfrom all the districts and all

To do this properly it would beswell it he could visit all of them

This is a new way of looking at thematter and come to think about It apretty reasonable way Tn any event4t is just as well io take a philosophicyjew of the matter for they are goinganyway

ENDORSED W K HY RSRFOR CITY TREASURER

Editor Pensacola Journal-It was with a great deal of pleasure

that I read the item in yesterdaysJournal relative to the candidacy ofW K Hyer Sr for city treasurer Ihave had the pleasure of the intimatefriendship of Mr Hyer for many yearsand I can truthfully say that I do notknow of any one whom I would rathersee in that office than he The oldgentleman would more than dignifythe office and it would be a deservedtrust to one of the noblest heartedmen and unfaltering democrats in Pensacola

That he did enter the primary hassurprised one he has al-ways been known to stand for what hethought was right and all who knowhim naturally expected that he woulddo so because his position on matters-of this kind is so well known-

I urge every young man in Pensacola as welt as the older ones to voterOt llm and elect him It is a justtribute to him and one that everyyoung man should like to seabestowedupon bis own father LOYAL

When thfe of the country announced hat President Roosevelt wasdissatisfied and disappointed with thepoor showing made by the PanamaCanal Commission in the prosecution-of the great work entrusted to it andthat he would1 soon reorganize the

the distinguished commissionerssmiled knowingly and declared that itwas merely newspaper talk Theyfelt so secure In their positions thatthey continued to hold meetings Inluxurious quarters in New York andWashington thousands 61 miles awayfrom Panama and to give ponderousconsicferalipn to the most insignificantdetails while the great work Itselfwas neglected The llrst shock to theconfident and complacent commission-ers cam when the recent correspond-ence between the president and Sec-retary Taft was published relative tocanal affairs and in which there wasperfect agreement as to the inefficiency of the present commission Thesecond and final shock occurred

when the president called forthe resignations of the canal commis-sioners anu so It was not

talk after allIt is safe to say that no act of the

president has commanded more populaK favor than his dumping of thePanama Canal Commission which formore than one year did nothing andat no gave any promise of doinganything lusted of actively

work of building the canalit seemed to be governe by a desire-to demonstrate to the country howthoroughly incompetent was to per-form the duties of it and inthis respect it succeeded admirably

It Is stated Jhat the president willannounce the members of the newcommission some time during his stayin the south and that the body willbe so organized that the actual con-struction of the canal will be Incharge of not more han three menand to the other commissioners sepa-rate duties bn all relating to thegreat work will be appointed It isthe purpose of the president to securethe services of men who are not onlyboth able and active but whohad some experience In the manage-ment of large enterprises involving apractical knowledge of constructionwork similar to that which will

THAT FORESTFIRE PROBLEM

Jacksonville TimesTJnion

The proposition to create the officeof state forester in Florida and toalso provide for the appointment offire wardens was recently advanced

by H C Putnam in these columnsand the suggestion is certainly worthythe consideration legislaturewhich is to confede In Tallahasseenext week

Nevertheless OUt correspocdent isin error in supposing that the appoint-ment of subordinate fire wardens-in each county or town would have

any appreciable effect in checking theravages of our forest fires

These fires do not necessarilyin the vicinity of

towns and the most of our countiescover so much ground that beforethe warden could arrive upon thescene of the conflagration from hisstation In town the damftga wouldhave been done

If any steps are ever taken in thisdirection it will certainly be foundnecessary to localize the system 6ffire protection as much as possibleand it probably be found ad-

visable to appoint at least one firewarden in every election precinct

Judging from the tenor of his com-munication Mr PutnAm evidentlr Im-

agines that theSe woods fires could beextinguished by concerted action Inany given This is amistake

The forest fire fii Florida when theis nigh and the deposit of pine

needles and dVied grass heavycannot be It be fought

landWere this done It would no doubtbe possible to devise some system bywhich those interested could by burning off wide strips between plowedboundaries otter an obstacle to an ap-

proaching forest fire akin to that pro-vided by the multitude of carefullyprotected Inclosures in a thickly set-tled community

The legislature should by all meanstake this matter up and we trust thatthe state presswill see to It that theattention of the public is drawn to asubject of so much importance

Amending the Primary LawThere was need of a revision of the

state primary law as the defects weremore apparent at the last primaryelection than ever before After thatelection so much demand was madefor changes that the State DemocraticExecutive Committee was called insession here yesterday to suggestchanges which could be made by thelegislature meeting next month It Iswell that these defects be consideredand cured by changes made in thelaw The primary plan Is to be thmethod for a long time yet for ndmlnatlng candidates as the democraticvoters have ratified the plan atballot box and to keep pace in thePatty all should be as fair and asstraight as possible

Dissensions in a party can fleatrpyit quicker than anything else andgood democrats want nothing ofa

or disintegrating nature andhence the desire to make the lawmore suitable to the wants of thevoters The state committee isworking body and it intends to dbthe right thing we believe In amend-ing the law Jacksonville Metropolis
