who is now elected by the people is
Every judge who stands for re-elec-
ton subjects himself to recall, because
defeat is nothing more nor less than a
recall.
President Taft's theory is the old
tory idea that public servants-and a
Judge is one-should be as far removed
from the people as possible. But he
ignores the fact that a judge, even
though removed from the influence or
fear OF popular passion" must still be
subject to the ir4uence of some one.
And, if subject to any influence, why
not to the influence of the people
whose servant he is2
The fact is that the fear raised by
the recall proposition is nothing but a
great big bug-a-boo. Where the re-
call for public officials is in effect it
has seldom been used. The reason is
plain--it makes public servants more
careful. 1t prevents them from be-
coming arrogant. 1t instills a whole
some respect for the rights of the
public, and the public official therefore
seldom violates those rights or sub
jects himself to the possibility of re-
call.
The very existence of the recall OBJ
viates the necessity for it's use.
President Taft to the contrary we
think the recall for judges and. al
public servants will from this time or
be more generally accepted and yield
more satisfactory government.

Woodrow Wilson
And the Nomination.

The woodrow Wilson sentiment
seems to be taking firm hold on every
section OF the country. It is running
in the west like, a prairie fire and in
the south it has always been strong.
In the north and east, the distin-
guished New Jersey governor is as
strong as any other single candidate
and his strength is increasing every
day.
OF the candidates thus far men
toned, there are but two whose SER
vice, political records. and positions
on present day questions are likely to
command recognition by the demo-
cratic convention. One is Champ
Clark: the other is Woodrow Wilson.
Either Of these two progressive
democrats would be satisfactory to the
country at large. but Woodrow Wilson
seems now to be the popular favorite.
The Journal viii be satisfied with
either Wilson or Clark-preferably the
New Jersey man-and with either
heading the party we can win with
ease.

Expenditures and Product of the
Pensacola Navy. Yard.

Acting Secretary Winthrop of the navy department
no doubt imagined he had off all possibility of discus
sion to the value of the Pensacola navy yard when in
response to Senator Fetchers resolution of inquiry he
reported that the of maintaining the yard for 1910
was S25O348.71 while the total product only SOL
1871 while for 1911 cost was S217 56489 and the
product $18,733.08.
all looks bad its face but there is another side to
those figures. Here is least "a part of it:
The cost stated is probably correct but it would
have been practically the had there not been dollars
worth of work done at the yard And conversely it would
have been little had five six times that amount of
work been done.
The department simply set about it to sarve the Pen
sacoa yard 1t furnished work for the yard it allowed
none to be done here The work could have been done
mere and done cheapy had the department permitted it to
be done But instead of sending work here even of
leaving work that already here the department sent it
to yards where political pull furnished the consideration
Naturally the expense of the yard went on But even
that effect padded and obviously for the purpose of
deceiving both the senate and the public.
In his figures showing the cost of maintenance the
acting secretary includes @ 4O29 for 1910 and
for 1911 PAY OF OFFICERS AND ENLISTED
MEN
Is there anywhere record instance where the paw
of officers and menwhose business simply and solely
that of soldiers in the preservation and defense of the
Inaton-has there been instance where such paw
has been figured in part of the expense of building or
If the assistant secretary is to figure this expense
against the product of the yard and that the
yard should enough to it. then presume
will figure that battleshp should produce enough
the salaries of the officers and men who handle it.
By parity of reasoning also, Fort Barrancas and the
various army posts should all produce enough maintain
themselves and all become sef-supportng.
Its rather extravagant assumption but is no more
ridiculous than the assumption of the assistant secretary
that the pay the officers and enlisted stationed there
should be figured in part of the of maintaining
the Pensacola navy yard AS matter of fact this naval
force might the hand have been augmented ten
times or the other, moved away entirely and it would
have made difference whatever in the maintain
ing the yard.
The navy department has not peg to hang any of its
arguments and congress should be made it. The
department is the of congress- Congress is the
servant of the people Why should congress the
regular session winter call the navy department
accounting?
Pensacola could show the naval committees in both
houses the wisdom of doing If Pensacola to sit
quietly by while the navy department robs the country
of its most valuable best equipped and best fortified
navy yard construction plants and the same time de
prve Pensacola of her valuable asset that is Pensa-
coa's business.
i But it's mighty poor business.

Business Men and
he Military Companies.

1t has been reported to The Journal
that some business men, and one Pen
sacola bank. have forbidden their en-
ployees to join the military company.
The Journal has, from time to time,
given reasons why young man should
join a military company and reasons
also why every community should
have one or more companies.
There are. however, and unfor-
tunately too. some men and some in
situations whose eyesight converges to
a point not farther OFF than the end OF
the nose. These men are the first to
squeal when they need help and the
last to furnish assistance when others
need it.
The military companies can proba-
bly, get along without their aid, COM
fort or support. They are at least
doing fairly well now and we imagine
