WORKMAN WILL GO
TO PENSACOLA

Ocala people will be interested in
the following from the Pensacola
News:
Prof. j. A. Workman, who today
completes very successful term as
principal of the Miami high school,
has been engaged to come to Pensa-
cola and take charge of the high
school. He is a man of wide expert
ence, and was selected by the Escam-
bia county board of public instruction
after a number of applications had
been received and carefully consider
ed. The good work which he has done
in Miami, the Magic City of South
Florida, leads the local county school
board to the belief that like wonders
will be performed here, and it is I'M
derstood that he comes to Pensacola
under a contract for several years,
and that several teachers will cone
along with him. Prof. Workman has
been at Miami for the past six years
as supervising principal. He was
born in Tennessee, and has an L. l.
degree from the Peabody Institute,
Nashville, and also an A. B. from the
University of Nashville He was prin-
cipal of the Ocala schools for about
eleven years, or from 1904 to 1915.

quiet and not make public the secret
archives of the government.
In order to defend himself and the
navy, Secretary Daniels has been
guilty of what might be called
breach of trust such as has rarely
happened in the history of any civiliz-
ed nation.
Personal safety. party bitterness nor
nothing else can justify divulging
such secret orders as Mr.. Wilson
gave, when these orders involved a
criticism of Great Britain and it's
navy. These criticisms necessarily
will rankle in the heart Of every Eng
lishman for years to come, and very
Justly so. Mr.. Wilson made a mis-
take in ever sending such criticism of
the British navy through Admiral
Sims, but if Admiral Sims we're
guilty of all the misdeeds charged
against him by Secretary Daniels. his
shortcomings would be meritorious as
compared with the mischievous blum
der which Secretary Daniels has COM
mitted.
1t is not possible for any English
man, admiring his navy, as every
Englishman does, to think of this
criticism without an unspoken
thought to the effect that he would
rather like to see test of the power
OF the English navy against the Am
erican navy. He will smother the
thought, he will kill it, and yet again
and again it will arise and he will
feel that Mr.. Wilson and Secretary
Daniels have practically dared the
English navy to show whether or not
| it has the courage and ability of the
American navy. That very fact is one
of the awful possibilities of evil. and
it behooves every lover of humanity
every lover of America, to do all in
his power to overcome this evil seed
which the devil has sown and to create
spirit of friendship between these
two great nations which will for the
centuries to come enable them work
side by side in the advancement Of al
humanity and in helping to rebuild
on the ruins of the war a greater
civilization than the world has ever
known.

DICKIE FOUND BAD ROADS

L. P. Dickie, secretary of the board
OF trade and family, took trip to
Ocala Sunday, driving over the short
route through Auburndale. Dickie is
back safe and sound and says the trip
has added considerable quantities,
ana qualities, to his large vocabulary.
He advises all against using this
route in reaching Ocala, until the
rains are over and the road is re-
paired. In one place a detour of about
a half-mide must be made and accord
ing to Mr.. Dickie. Webster is his
palmiest days would fail when it
came to expressing a coherent, COM
prehensive opinion of this detour. He
was compelled to use the mats from
the floor of his car on the wheels to
pull himself out of the mud. He says

City is we'll paved road as COM
pared with that one-half- mile detour,

TOOLS OF THE TEUTON

Says the Toronto Mail and Empire:
It is difficult to believe that Irish
patriots are responsible for the reign
of terror that has been established in
many parts of Ireland. Sim Feiners
are the hands that strike down Irish
policemen and British soldiers. but
the brain that directs the attack is
probably German one. Slim Feiners
wer the tools of Germany through the
wal, and no evidence has been sup
piled to indicate that the Irish or
ganization has severed is intimate re-
lationship with those German forces
that continue to work for the destruc-
ton of the British Empire. We see
the relationship maintained in the
United States with German-Amcri-
cans and Irish-Americans vying with
each other to force the Irish question
to the front in the presidential cleo
ton. We see American candidates
pandering to Irish-American and
German-American sentiment. If ever
there was divorce granted to this i'll
assorted hyphenated union there has
been no public announcement of the
fact. We have De Valera's expressed
regret that Great Britain was not de-
stroyed in the war, the statement be-
ing made to an American audience
which forgot, apparently, that If
Britain had been destroyed the United
States could not have survived.
France believes that Germany is
already laying her plans for another
war in which France shall play the
role of victim. Even with Germany
partly disarmed as she is, it would be
possible for her to raise another
huge army with which one more tc
invade France. That dream will re.
main dream so long as France car
depend upon the assistance of Great
Britain. But if Germany should be
able to embroil the United States
and Great Britain over Ireland, Brit
aims hands would be tied anC
France would have to fight without
her help. Germany's strategy OBJ
viOusly is to estrange Britain and the
United States. The simplest anc
most immediate way to do it is thru
the Irish question. Does not thi!
supply Germany with a strong nb
ject for helping the Sim Feiners, fol
supplying them with money through
American channels and perhaps will
desperate Irish-American gunner
and other thugs? Sir Edward Carson
said not long ago that a conspiracy
to murder him had been formed in tht
United States. Irish Sim Feiners are
bad enough, but they are not so des
Iperate as American Sim Feiners, anG

SUMMED UP BY A
NON-PARTISAN SHEET

The Manufacturers Record says:
1t is difficult to conceive of any great
er calamity which could befall the
world than the creation of a spirit of
bitterness and secret enmity between
Great Britain and the United States.
Upon these two countries and their
close friendship rests the future Of
all civilization. It is in their power,
if in close harmony, to carry forward
the work of civilization; but if they
were at secret enmity, with constant
misunderstanding and bitterness, the
civilization of the whole world would
hang in the balance. These two great
nations, speaking the same language,
more nearly representing the same
thought in government, in religion, IN
industry and commerce than any
other two nations on earth, should
forever live in such close friendship
as would prevent, under any condi-
tions, the development of spirit of
bitterness. In saying this we do not
for a moment suggest that these ma
tions should not be friendly and ag-
gressive rivals in trade or that either
of them should blindly follow the
other.
The things which have been said in
Washington lately and the most I'M
wise testimony given by Secretary
Daniels, merely for the purpose of dis
crediting Admiral Sims. endanger the
friendship of America and Great
Britain and in that way endanger the
worlds safety.
If President Wilson, in the turmoil
of the hour, undertook to suggest how
the British navy, behind which we had
hid for two years, should be run, il
was an objectionable blunder in Sec
rotary Daniels to divulge the critl.
cism now. We cannot believe that
Mr. Wilson could be responsible fol
Secretary Daniels objectionable mis-.
take in bringing out secret kilograms
and instructions issued by Mr.. Viii
son. 1t is not always the part of wis
do INTO divulge statements which, I'M
der stress of circumstances, have beer
made of friends or even members OF
the same family. Some things are
better left covered up rather than ex
posed to the public gaze, even though
in exposing them some indiscreet mar
or woman may find a peculiar salts
faction in stirring up hatred.
If all Secretary Daniels said agains
Admiral Sims were true, even if h
had been guilty of more than Secre
tary Daniels claims. it would hav,
been the part of common sense anC
wisdom and of religion itself to keel
