Quite different from the above, is
the tone of the Cologne Gazette,
which seems to be thirsting for
Samoan blood, and declares that
the more signal this chastisement
and more ample the satisfaction the
surer will be the guarantee that
peace and order will remain undis-
turbed and the more effective Will
be the resolutions of the conference

equal rights to influence the future

The following extract from an ar
ticle in the Weser Zeitung, which
has been reprinted IN the Berlin
Post, shows that there are at least
some newspapers in Germany who
take view of the proceedings of
their own officials in Samoa, which
though cautiously and diplomaticaI-
Iy expressed. is decidedly uncompi-
mentary, and involves some pretty
broad admissions.
Neither under the present nor
under any other circumstances
would Germany have risked rup-
ture with America for such a baga
telIe. The Samoan white-bOok shows
that wherever the actions of German
officials were repudiated, it was be-
cause the officials acted contrary to
international law. The press criti
cisms evoked by the white-book were
almost entirely directed against the
excess of zeal displayed by the Ger
man agents, who appeared to be
lacking in the statesmanlike dis
erection necessary in dealing with
the situation. The Samoan reports
show an endeavor to make German
annexation or protection appear
necessary"

NOTES ON SAMOAN AFFAIRS.

Prepared tor the z. c. ADVERTISED
The German White-book. which
was presented in the Reichstag on
the fifteenth Of February, contains
large amount Of valuable official in
formation relative to the Samoan
question. The general impression
produced by the various exhibits, Is
on the whole, not unfavorable to the
prospect Of an honorable and peace
able solution of the questions at
issue between Germany and the
other powers.
The readiness of theshOme govern
ment to disavow the more extreme
measures of its agents in Samoa Is
entitled to be accepted as evidence
Of pacific disposition, unless con
tradicted by future action ineonsis-
tent Herewith.
There are one or two things, how
ever, in this White book, which. to
put it mildly, look rather queer
For instance: The German Consul
at Apia reports that on December
18th Mataafa, IN a humble letter,
sought to open negotiations with the
Consul, but would not surrender
himself, although pledges We're given
that his life would be spared. In Il
subsequent letter Mataafa promised
to surrender himself in the presence
of the British and American COnsuls,
but the German Consul declined to
entertain the offer
This, it is to be remembered, Is not
a story from an outside or hostile
/ source, but an official report from
! the Germans themselves. Altogether
! 1t Is a very curious statement, strik
| ingly illustrative of the arrogance
and unwisdOm with which the Ger
/ man consular mind at Apia seems tc
have been at all times saturated.
That Mataafa, victorious in every
! encounter, should have been willing
to surrender himself to the Germans
on any conditions, Is contrary to the
tenor of all other accounts. Sup
| posing him, however, to have beer
willing to take such a step, his dis
trust of the good faith of the Ger
man Consul, whether well founded
or not, was entirely natural and par
dOnable. His desire to make the
surrender in the presence of the
representatives Of the other powers
who would be presumably impartial
and in a certain sense responsible
witnesses to the terms and condition.
on which the surrender was made
was more than reasonable. Such ;
course was a duty which he owed
not only to himself, but to his people
The refusal Of the German Cousu
to entertain such d proposition APP
pears strangely inconsistent witt
square dealing and the professions
which have been repeatedly made 0
a desire for an honorable and peace
able settlement. If there is an,
satisfactory way of reconciliDg thu
seeming inconsistency, it would bt
we'll that it should be pointed out
If there are any reasons which cal
be given IN justification Of the cours
Of the Consul, as reported by himself
such reasons are unknown to tn
world.

The interstate commerce law forbids
railways to charge openly or by device any
one person a greater or less compensation
for any service rendered in the tranSpor-
tatiOn of passengers or property than 1t
charges for a like and contemDoraneouS
service. This is one thing that this law
fCrbids. 1t does not, however, prohibit one
company from giving to its patrons better
services than another Why then patron

train service when for the same amount of
money you can obtain superior service

the same points. The railways entering

ON THE STAIR.

With rosebud lips, blue eyes and golden ham
barred the way, and laughingly said:
you can't go by until the toll is paid"
She paid the tribute with bewitching grace;
And fam q second kiss from that sweet face
Would have snstched, but running by,
She paused not till she heard my heartfelt
sigh.
Then, giancing round. she sew my longing look.
And said: THAT kiss you hadn't oughter took
For Il was grandms's, and have no more;
What SHAH do when she comes to the door,
''Dear child" cried, "the kiss Iwill not take
But give It back again-for grandme's sake;"
And SO once moro kissed the maiden fair,
And she went up. and came down the stair.
