Hines took over as head of the Veterans Bureau after a series of scandals discredited the agency. He was considered a "man of stern honesty." In response to the scandals the field service was "centralized to establish strict controls and accountability." Hines was born in Salt Lake City, Utah Territory, on April 11, 1879. He joined the Utah Light Artillery in 1898 and served in the United States military during the Spanish–American War, becoming a second lieutenant.
