The Pensacda papers Of last Sunday
gave an account of the commerce of
the port in tlat city, which shows a
splendid recort and gives an increase
Of over S3,OO1OOO over any previous
year. The figures furnished by these
papers show the valuation Of shipments
each month since July of last year to
be as follows:
July, $3.50, 74I; August, 1912, 1856; Sep

The month which has just come to a
close was ar exceptionally good one for
June, which is usually a dull one here
in the exporting trade, and rarely ever
reaches the 1000, 900 mark in valua-
ton, but the past month exceeded this
figure by a small margin But little
cotton and naval stores were exported,
when nave large valuations, but Lumber
and timber were shipped in large guam
titles In fact the past month mas wit
messed the shipment Of more lumber
and timber than any one month for the
past two years over forty million feet
were exported, and large quantities
were sent coastwise, principally to New
York and Philadelphia. The countries
to which shipments were made during
June and the valuations are as follows:

GOVERNOR FOLK.

The Governor Of Missouri works him
self more securely INTO the confidence
Of thinking people with every step he
takes. The hostility of the professional
politicians Of his own State is not a
drawback but tribute When, some
weeks ago, county convention at the
State capital refrajned from endorsing
MS administration, which would have
followed custom, the politicians failed
to Oinjure the Governor and only revealed
themselves. When, instead. these gen
temen passed resolution approving
"the record and respective administra-
tiOns of the Democratic party from 1873
90 1906 inclusive" they rendered them
selves incredibly ridiculous. To Gov
ernor Folk is it due in large part that
we know how ridiculous such an alIega-
tion is. His head is clear, his courage
Is good, and nothing so far has checked
his sure-foOted progress along the line
marked out for him by a sane mind and
honest heart The punishment Of those
six boodlers who went to prison gave
him no satisfaction because the individ-
uals suffered He thought some of them
less guilty than others who could not
be caught, and some Of the six have the
friendliest feelings for him now. 1t
was the protection Of the public that he
had in mind then, and has had in every
step that he has taken since. His rec
ord as Governor mas had none Of the
sensational interest that he aroused as
circuit attorney, but it has brought out
not only the same qualities, but the
ability to deal wisely with new problems
as they arise. 1t is no wonder, then.
that the politicians of his State dislike
him as mucn rs they ever did, and al
ways will Golfers Weekly.

dent and We followed them, having the

some day Now we will give you two
pictures to gaze upon;
LOOK ON THIS PICTURE!


When Governor Bloxham made the
sale Of 4.OO0,0OO acres of land at 25
cents per acre, some few people in the
State of Florida thought the price not
large enough. With that money the
Vose judgment was paid off, and the
United States court released to the In
ternal Improvement Board the remain
ing lands. The board then commenced
the wise policy of granting lands to any
one who build railroads. They also re-
fused to sell lands in large bodies and
continued to hold them through the sue
ceeding administrations, that they
might be purchased by settlers
That policy was continued down to
the administration of Governor Jen-
nings
AND THEN ON THIS!
One Of the first acts of Governor Jen-
nings administration, July 25, 1901,
was to sell to J. NJ, Bars a large body
of land at 80 cents per acre Twenty
years later than the Bloxham sale, and
only cents an acre more, thus break
ing up the long-continued policy Of
keeping lands for settlers. There was
not a dollar due by the board to any
one, and therefore no cause for that
sale. When that sale had been COM
pleted July 2, 1903 and $50, 900 acres
disposed of for the sum of 80 cents per
acre, the whole policy of holding lands
for settlers had been broken up, and
the small amount of money received
therefor was lying in the Internal I'M
provement Fund unused. That land, it
is claimed, was Immediately after the
purchase sold for a much larger sum
than the State received. With the old
plan Of exchanging land for the build
ing of railroads, that amount Of land,
so unfortunately disposed Of, would
have been the means of building rail-
roads for the State at points where
they are very much needed
That policy apparently is to be fol-
lowed through the administration of
Governor Broward. And we predict
that his ambitions will lie along the
of those Of Ex-Governor Jen-
nings, and that his fate will be the
samoan unwilling retirement to pri-
vate life insofar as an outraged people
can place him.
