The monitors were now using their

against the shield of the ram. The
bow part cover was struck by heavy
shot, killing one or two and severely
wounding Admiral Buchanan in tho
leg. The smoke stack was shot away
and the steering gear was entirely dis

to haul down the flag and display a

Insurgency in the
Republican Party.

When President Taft vetoes the free
list bill, or the wool bill or the cotton
bill, then will the split in the Repub-
lican party be unreliable. There may
be some insurgents who will swallow
their medicine, but there is a pro-
gressive element in the Republican
ranks which is alive to the situation
and which believes in the progressive
doctrines of the Democratic party and
will leave the G.. o. P. If all of the
pledges for progressive legislation are
disregarded.
At heart we believe President Taft
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1911-08-09

is of the opinion that the progressive
theories are right, but he does not
seem to have the moral courage to
take the leadership against the stand
patism Of his party. However, he does
not seem to realize that he is going to
lose those thousands of progressives
who are no more standpat Repub-
licans than Democrats are.
All that the president has to do now
to make his dereat al,7olute- Ger
tainty is to veto the farmers free list
bill and go on record as being against
tariff reduction.

Pensacola Should Have
Weather Kiosk.

Elsewhere in The Journal this morn
ing is a news story taken from the Sa-
vannah Morning News telling of the
weather kiosk which is to be located
in that city by the instrument division
of the department of agriculture. Sa-
-svannah,is the first southern city to get
one. and that it will be appreciated by
the public in that city is q foregone
conclusion.
'Kiosk" is a Turkish word meaning
an open summer house, or pavilion
supported by four pillars. Because OF
its similarity in looks. the little weather
instrument house which the depart
ment of agriculture is locating at
few places for the public convenience
is called a kiosk"
Pensacola should have one, and II
the proper interest and enthusiasm Is
put into a movement to obtain one, II
is very probable that the request will
be granted. This much is certain,
nothing is coming to us without an et-
fort on our part and the sooner we
I, learn this the better for us.
The kiosk serves a purpose that the
: weather bureau upon the tops of high
: buildings never fills in that it Is con-
venient to the people and that the
temperatures are taken down near the
earth where the people are and an
>exact record may thus be obtained.
The maritime interests of the Deep
Water City would be greatly benefited
by the establishment of a kiosk in
Pensacola and the need for it will be
felt mora as the city grows and the
maritime business develops and ex-
pands.
In the parkway on the west side OF
San Carlos court between the San
Carlos hotel and the Blount building
would be an ideal location for the
kiosk. The structure would be an or
nament to the place and would bal
ance the fountain on the east side, as
well as being in the most convenient
place for thousands of people to visit it.
The Journal would suggest that the
Commercial Association take the mat
ter up with the agricultural depart
ment and not rest until. Pensaco has
kiosk. At present only a few cities
have these valuable apparati and there
is not one in city on the gulf coast.

here who care enough for good 7r74I-.o
to patronize 1t in all its forms. but an
habitual frequenter of concerts soon
learns just what faces he may look for
in the different audiences The ex-
perience held good with the series Of
band concerts at the Grand opera house
which closed last night when S0rrap-
tino's famous Banda Rosa played.
At the first evening concert when the
band played the overture to William
ell. the applause proved to the leader
that the people in the house were his old
friends-those who had heard him be-
fore and were not disappointed in his
peerless rendering of that much loved
composition The programs for matt
nee and evening each began with one
of the leaders own marches esta bIisF-
ing his claim to some distinction as A

chiefly of music that is known and

musical intelligence. The overture from
