Pensacola. Fla, March a2.-(special.) \ The first authentic information of the torpedo target practice now beinr conducted by the torpedo fiotilla at St. Joe. about thirty miles from this city, was received today.
 The torpedo boat Bleakly arrived ir the city for provisions, and the officers reported that the practice had prove satifcatory so far. The new torpe- does purchased recently from England are being tested. English naval au thorities found them to be most ser viceable and the test now being con ducted will decide whether or not the United States navy will use them.
 The new torpedo is unique in con struction and action. It can be dis charged on straight line for quar- ter of mile and then made to turn complete angle to either the righ or left. by the marksman.
 Each of the five boats carries three torpedoes all of which will be used in the practice.
 The remainder of the torpedoes ar, at. the Norfolk navy yards and will be used by the vesuvius when she conn pletes repairs and Is put into eommis- sion.

 The report of the secretary showed the organization to be in flourish condition.
 No Quorum of Council.
 It seems impossible for the city council to get a quorum to settle the question of the $1s,000 forfeiture fund put up by the promoters of the Pen-- sacola, Alabama and Western and Pen- sacola North eastern railways. Two attempts were made yesterday to hold meetings, one in the forenoon and one at night but neither was success full.
 It was decided to let the matter go over to the next regular meeting of the city council.

The Height of a Boom.

Since the return of Mr.. Taft from his swing
around the mundane sphere his Presidential boom
has been given all the stimulation that political or
ganization could inject into situation Mr.. Roose-
welt has expressed confidence in the success of his
Presidential selection in the National convention on
about the second ballot.
State and county committees of the party are re-
solving, under the magnetic inspiration of their chief,
that Taft is the coming The Southern States,
ever waiting by the roadside for the band wagon
with its cargo of Federal Offices are affected by
these demonstrations in behalf of Marse Taft and
are likely to stampede for place in the lineup.
Beyond these demonstrations all of surface char
acter it cannot be said that the mass of the Repub
1ican party has any defined intention to place the
Secretary of War in the running His boom is thus
far the artificial product of an administration
chine that necessarily powerful along its organized
lines.
In the States of the Middle West it is advanced
by the anti Roosevelt element, with the advocates
of the policies of the administration standing by in
sulen silence, wondering why they have been pushed
aside and the work of nominating Taft given over
to the enemies of the administration devotees
of the old Hanna machine
There is nothing at all hea1thful in the inflated
boom of the Presidential favorite, just at the
zenith of its notoriety and after it has had its brief
day. collapse is likely to destroy its symmetrical pro-
portions
Mr. Roosevelt places in his list of Certain for

Conclusions that are reached through the medium
of Dartv committees of counties and of States are
deceptive for few voters will follow the lead of

that way The spirit of independence that actuates
the custodian of the ballot is strongly defined and
when the shouters open the Presidential year with
the announcement that Mr.. Taft is already as good
as nominated they have not very clear conception
of what the sixth month of the year has in store for
them and their favorite.

A Union Legislature.

In calling the Legislature of Nevada together,
Governor Sparks states that he will inform that
body when organized of the purpose for which it
was convened Through some process, not outlined,
the Legislature will be asked to adjust by legisla
ton if possible the controversy existing between the
miners and the mine owners"
If, among other things the Governor asks the
Legislature to call upon the National authorities for
the presence of troops at Goldfeld it is anticipated
that his request will not be complied with. The
Carson City Appeal commenting on the situation,
says that in the Legislature zone of the most bitter
fights in the history of the State will be fought be-
tween the friends of the mine owners and the friends
of the mine workers.
MANY, great many, of the members of the Leg
isature," says The Appeal, "are sympathizers and
active members of the Western Federation and it
is claimed that some of them carry /. w. w. cards
For this reason it is clearly that the weight
of power seems to be in the union members and
the session will probably result in failure to ask
for the Federal troops" Such is the opinion of
newspaper at the capital of the State.
The Governor consented to call the session only
after great pressure had been brought to bear by
citizens of the State He does not believe that the
session will result in call for troops, and that is
undoubtedly the reason why he made the appeal him
SELF in the first instance, when the Federal Consti-
tuition required him to send in the call to the Ma
tional authorities through the Legislature.
The people of Nevada disposed to resent the
lecture delivered to the Governor of the State by
the President of the United States when he found
that he had ordered troops to Gold6e1d contrary
the provisions of the Constitution. They feel that
the National executive should not visit the verbal
of his own b1under upon the repre-
sentative of turbulent commonwealth who was not
the judge of the consttutionaity of his act
The Carson City paper says further:
In the calling of the session the Governor has
taken the weight of the present controversy off his
own shoulders and the people of the State must
knowledge that he has done the best thing possible
all things equally
The action of the Legislature is necessary if the
troops to remain within the State and the cry
on all sides has been that they remain. 1t is now
to the Legislature whether the will of the people
will be their decision whether the lives and prop
erty in the camp of Go1dheld must be protected by
a small force of deputies.

The Fourth.

Though no preparations were made
to celebrate the Fourth here, yet there
were many people present from Do
than and other points, who came in
on Friday evenings train, and many
more who visited Panama City on
that day from bay points.
A fish fry was provided for all who
would partake, which was served in
the park, and our inland visitors put
in the day and evening in launch
rides, bathing, &c. All in all the day
was most pleasantly and quietly
spent.
Had the road been able to have
furnished the needed equipment to
care for the crowds that wanted to
come here from inland points that
day, there would have been over a
thousand of such visitors here. An
other year all this will be provided
for, and then Panama City can hold
such a celebration as the place and
day warrants.
The history of other Fourths in this
region are interesting. In 1910 there
was one held at st Jc where some IS
regular and 50 extra tC asts were drank
There was an Grafton by w. W. Mason.
and the Declaration of independence
was read by c.. G. Yonge. The SER
vices were held in Convention Hall.
At lola they had public dinner. Col
H. D. Stone was President of the
Day, and Joshua Hudson Vice Presi-
dent. Twentyfour toasts were drank.
The peculiar feature of these cele-
brations of other days appears to be
the numerous toasts that were drank.
And it is said that they were not
drank in mineral water either.
When the thirteen original colonies
declared their independence 1872 years
ago, the fair state of Florida was un-
thought of as even becoming other
than what it then was, a foreign pos
session. England had acquired it in
1853, and held it until it was turned
over to Spain in 1888.
On the shores of ,thjs world re-
nowned beautiful bay English officers
and men had established homes, and
were enjoying the day that saw the
birth of a new nation, as those who
have lived upon these shores during
the heat of the summer have ALWAYS
enjoyed the July days. The impend-
ing conflict cast no echo over this
favored locality, and benefcent peace
held full sway. Four decades had
passed before there was an attempt
made to secure this section of the
country as part of the expanding
union. 1918 witnessed the transfer
from Spain to the United States, and
not until then did Florida begin to
enter the race of progress and home
building, and any natal day to be
recognized.
