Commissioners PROCEEDINGS

The usual monthly gathering
OF the board of county commits
sioners was slow In beng called
to order by the chairman. All
members present, and noted alb
sence of persons who are usually
present to ask county aid, but
not less than seven appeared,
either in person or by friends,
ere the day closed, adding SIS to
the pauper list. Their names:
Moses Wilson and wife, near
Pennington; Tlney Akers and
daughter, near Belleview; Will
liam Williams, Ocala; all colored.
White: Calvin Johns. Pedro;
Mrs. Sellers, Ocala. The pauper
list showed fifty-four beneficial
rles Two died during the month,
leaving the list now fifty-nine.
Again we inquire, where is the
poor farm?
Messrs. N. nj. Alfred and D.
w. Davis appeared in behalf of
the city council and city of Ocala,
asking the board to endorse a
bill, which will be pushed through
the legislature, permitting Ocala
to expend money outside of the
corporate limits to assist the
county in building a hard road to
Silver Springs. All favored it's
passage but Chairman Clrney,
who thought he saw a e'nigger in
the wood pllr," that in case such
a bill passed Ocala would take
the board by the seat of the un-
mentionables and the nape of the
neck and--; afraid the lawyer
would have the granger and the
town would down the country.
All the Same, it went through
with four votes in it's favor, for
which Mr.. DAVIS, in behalf of the
city, rendered the board a vote
of thanks. Allen moved it's pas
sage and Williamson second
ed it.
Attorney Alfred asked the
board to consider $42.31 worth OF
stenograpbic work done by him
for the county in 1895. 1t was
paid.
The road through Mr.. Olin's
ten-acre tract, near Kendrick,
again came up. Discussion last
ed an hour and then the board
said that until the new road is
opened to Reddick the old public
road should remain open. Allen
was willing that the county
should put Oln's fence back if he
would give strip for road on
one side, and then close the old
road. This Olln refused. Then
Allen proposed that the chair ap-
point a committee to look the
land over and report on this
road. This Olin declined; so it
Was left as a matter Of future
grievance, which Mr.. Olin
| thinks, under the circumstances,
is not only a serious one but is
trampling his rights as a citizen
and tax payer in the ground.

TRADE WITH SOUTH AFRICA.
The Growth of American Imports
Causes British Alarm.


The annual report of Consul General
Stowe, of Cape Town. South Africa, just
received by the State Department. con-
tains some interesting extracts on imports
from the United States. After stating that
the war with Spain caused general de-
crease in imports for time, the follow
ing statement from the British and South
African Gazette is given:
1t is clearly evident that Uncle sam has put on
his thinking cap, and the subject which he is
now considering is how to exploit our South AZ
rican possessions At the present time he is rather
at a disadvantage. for our manufacturers and mer-
chants have control Of the market, and their bust
mess arrangements have been perfected by years Of
trial and experience and common assimilation.
There is also solidarity between the colonies
and the mother country which it is difficult to
break through All the same, our Yankee cousin
is hopeful and thoughtful. He that the
freight rates Of the shipping combine" favor
his trade, but recognizes that the cash basis
which is a necessity of his business, is inferior
trade stimulus to the credit system esab-
lished between the British manufacturer and the
South African trader. He might be disposed TO
accord this advantage were he assured against
risk. and he pins his faith to the establishment
some day OF some distinctively American iustitu-
tion, which will provide him with information of
the financial standing Of buyers which will give
him this assurance. In the mean while he
seeks 10 make up for these disadvantages to his
business by all the push and res0lrcefulness-
and it is mean quantity-whicI American in
genuity knows. His study of his customers is
unbounded. and his accommodation TO their de-
sires knows no limit lie lets no occasion or OPP
portunlty pass TO bring to their knowledge the
merits of his wares if sale results. conf
den, that the future will justify his exertions. BY
such tactics these. he is pressing close his
British competitor at all trade outlets and his
exertions in many cases repaid by the orders
lac Is booking right under the noses OF his more
conservative relations On several hands, informa-
ton is daily reaching OF the success which
is attending his eifaTts, which Is. full of 1dmoni-
ton and warning TO home firms When foes are
equally matched, is more disastrous and our
kinsmon across the Atlantic may be reckoned to
be our equals, il not sometime g0ing one better
For these reasons. the need for introspecton
and circumspection by British traders in all de.
pariments-so often enforced in these colonies
become; daily more urgent, il are TO maintain
ard increase our hold Of South African trade.
The decrease in British exports to
South Africa during the six months end
ing June 80, 1898, amounted to over
s4.0G0.000. Consul Stowe advises ship
ments Of windmills. pumps. stoves. and
bicycles, as the American articles are in
great demand. Several large shipments
of steel rails and mining machinery have
recently been landed from the United
States
