We Are Disappointed
In Editor West.
...-.-.-...

The Journal is absolutely unable to
understand the attitude of Editor Wess
OF the Panama City Pilot in his re-
peated and, uncalled for attacks on
Pensacola
His latest cause of complaint is
the Recommendation Of the board Of
naval experts that Pensacola be made
a great naval base for the gulf.
One would naturally suppose that
where . Florida harbor had won the
recognition which has been accorded
to Pensacola in this respect, every
Florida newspaper. and particularly
every West Florida newspaper, would
rally to Pensacola's support and join
in an effort to make this harbor the
great naval station which the navy de-
partment would like to make of 1t.
Editor West not only has no words
Of congratulation. OF support. or OF
sympathy, but he attacks Pensacola
and the recommendation Of the naval
board in terms that will make our
New Orleans opponents shout with joy
There are three facts that stand out
in hold relief in the naval base ques-
ton. (1) Pensacola will be the naval
base or CD New Orleans will be the
naval base or (sl the gulf coast will
have no naval base.
That is all there is to the PROPOSE
ton.
AS between Pensacola and New Or
leans, no fair minded or disinterested
person can for q moment fail to
recognize PensacoIa's transcendent ad-
vantages. Why therefore any enc who
desires TO see naval base on the gulf.
and who is not personally interested in
New Orleans, should oppose the de-
velopment of the Pensacola navy yard
is past the comprehension Of The
Journal.
All we can say is that we are dis
tinctly and painfully disappointed in
Editor West.

A Few Things
Mr.. BRYAN Should Do.

The brightest humorous magazine
published is Life, whose sparkling wit
and whitening satire is an oasis in the
sordid and selfish desert of business
and politics which the world must
continually gaze upon. A great many
people and papers have recently been
telling Secretary of State Bryan what
he should not do. A writer in Life
proceeds to tell him what he should do
and here Is the advice rendered:
Mr.. Bryan should take the advice of
his host Of republican friends and re-
linquish the post of secretary Of state.
What we require in that portfolio.
which is properly the fountain head Of
the diplomacy of the entire country. is
little more hypocrisy, a little more
sophistry, a little more indirectness.
Mr.. Bryan is much toe direct in his
methods. He is too much given to
taking the public into his confidence.
He doesn't know how to hold cards in
his sleeve. He is too ready to do what
he thinks is right. without regard to
it's effects on the sensibilities of re-
publican editors who have been used
to something else.
If his salary is not large, he should
not seek to exc it out by methods
which are open, above board and above
suspicion. He should put up the con-
ventional American bluff and say moth
ing about it. Instead of talking to
Chautauquas. he should use some ad-
vance government information to take
flyer or two in Wall street, or he
should help some of his relatives to
grab valuable bits of public property.
or he should establish an umbilical
connection with a railroad corporation
or a group of financiers or a protected
manufactures. He should act as IL he
had never done an honest days work
in his life. He should learn and take
ADVANTAGE of the fact that the more
devious the route an income takes the
more honored its possessor is apt to
be.
OF course Mr.. Bryan. who has the
reputation of seldom taking advice

q base OF Portland cement concrete
with . cushion Of sand about an inch
thick between the concrete. This kind
of road Is much In favor. but It is ex-
pensivs where the brick have to be
shipped any considerable distance.
For country roads broken stone IL
generally used, with the upper three
inches of stone mixed with liquid as
phalt, asphaltic oil, or refined tar. or
some preparation Of one or another of
these materials. This kind of surface
the untreated stone, but 1t Is entirely
dustless, as whatever dr1t finds its way
on to the road is ground into the btu
minous surface by the action Of the
automobile wheels.
OF late many roads have been built
with a concrete base, with bitumi-
nous mixture on the top, so as to give
both strength to carry heavy loads and
the resiliency which the bituminous
surface presents.
Such roads would revolutionize the
commercial and agricultural interests
Of Florida They would reduce by
two-thirds the cost OF marketing the
fruit and other crops. and leave the
money so saved In the hands OF the
fruit growers and farmers. They would
extend enormously the area Of profit
able production OF early vegetables for
northern markets. as ten miles is easier
TO cover on good road than two
miles on one that is unimproved.
What Florida needs to make her ia
NOUS and wealthy is good roads and
more good roads, and then some more
good roads. They pay,
such facts and argument are abso-
Iutely unanswerahle, yet we Florida
people sit around and allow our natural
advantages and our tremendous possi-
bilities 10 lie dormant simply because
we haven't even part OF the business
sense which the people OF bleak and
barren New England always exercise
where dollars and cents are at stake.

from anyone and particularly when he
believes the advice is not good, will
hardly be Influenced by this sophis-
ticated though unique suggestion. But
should he decide to do SO, his course
would have ample precedent in the
record of many OF his predecessors in
public life Bryan. however, seems
never to be able to profit by the exam
pie Of other less particular as well as
less illustrious men and we presume
he win go right on breaking prece-
dents and staying honest.

BELIEVES PAVING COUNTY
ROADS A GOOD MOVE

Bluff Springs. Sept. IL. 1913.
Editor Pensacola Journal.
The proposition now before the
board Of county commissioners to pave
portion Of the county roads is a
move in the right direction If they can
pave the road from Pensacola to Flo
maton first, then apportion TO each
district according to it's mileage OF
county roads the remainder Of funds
on hand to be used in paving roads
centrally located through the territory
adjacent TO each depot or shipping
point. 1t would give Escambia county
real estate boom as nothing else
would, and would be a great help to
the different farming communities
Our county roads are, for the most
part, sand or soil roads and hauling
over them Is a heavy drag on teams.
Ny idea would be to pave the road
most convenient to the greatest num-
Der OF farmers running out from each
station as far as II could be done now,
leaving the work in shape to continue
whenever funds and labor were avail
able. The crooks should be taken out
in paving and roads made as straight
as possible. II the convicts were used
to do the work in small squads under
competent managers the million and a
half dollars properly expended on our
roads will give us a system OF roads
not often found in the rural districts.
Then If we could get two or three
bridges across Escambia river at con-
venient points to accommodate the
farming communities of Santa Rosa
county this part OF the world would
take on new life.
The people who do business at the
Bluff and the men in Santa Rosa coun-
ty who have to get their supplies at
the Bluff will give substantial aid to
get bridge here. IT is a narrow place
in the swamp with some high ridges
that can be followed with the road
through the swamp, and taking every
thing into consideration II is an ideal
place for a bridge across the river.

A Lively Race
The 1914 political campaign in Flor

of John n. c. Stockton of Jacksonville,
as a candidate for United States SEN
ator to succeed Senator Fletcher. Mr.
Stockton is well known throughout the
state. and has been very successful in
securing the nomination and election
of his friends. Since the above was
written the wires bring the intelligence
that Ex-Governor A. w. Gilchrist has
announced himself as a candidate for
the senatorship. Mr. Gilchrist is ex-
ceeding strong throughout the state,
and undoubtedly will give Senator
Fletcher a lively race.-Panama City

DADDY" of Proaressives-


John n. c. Stockton, of Jacksonville
1--WE should say of Florida), has for
nally announced his candidacy for the
United States senate to succeed Dun
can u. Fletcher.
John Stockton is the daddy" Of all
the progressives Of Florida. He was
the first progressive; he has constantly
and always been a progressive; he has
Away been found in the front ranks,
generally working for the success or
some one else who was willing TO hold
the office, but occasionally as an active
contestant whenever his friends thought
best for him to run. John Stockton Is
true friend. If he tells you he is for
you today he will be for you tomor-
row, and the next day and always. He
is true to his friends. If Stockton be-
so, he will tell others so, and nothing
can swerve him. If he intends to do
something for you, or against you, he
will tell you so-and he'll come mighty
near doing it. John Stockton may not
go to the United States senate. He
has been defeated before for this Of
fee as well as for governor-but
whether he wins or loses, he will not
grow bitter nor turn against the friends
y no urged him to run, or hate those
who fought him any the harder. John
Stockton comes mighty near measur-
