THE SAMOAN AFFAIR.

The advices received on Saturday
show that the work of the Berlin
Commission has been nearly con-
cluded, and on what will be called
here a very satisfactory basis. Ac-
cording to the correspondents, Ger
many and England have had to
abandon their pretentions. They
started out with a declaration for
foreign control and German pre-
ponderance in the government of
Samoa. Now they have had to &C
cept what America all along de-
manded, namely, native preponder-
ance, amounting to autonomy, in
Samoa, and perfect equality as be-
tween Great Britain, Germany and
the United States in their external
relations with Samoa and the part
which they should play in helping
the natives to govern themselves.
The success of the commission and
the rapidity with which the business
was got through was partly due to
the conciliatory attitude of Herbert
Bismarck and the impartial policy
displayed by Sir Edward Malet, and
largely to the American commission
ers having definite instructions GOV.
ering every point. The constant
hard work of the subcommittee
marvelously expedited matters, the
plenary sittings of the conference
having little to do further than to
hear reports. Throughout, no en-
barrassing developments have re-
tarded the progress Of deliberations.
When the Conference began it was

DEGREES, reformed the secondary
schools of the country by putting
them on a classical basis. Greek
and Latin were taught almost ex-
clusively. This action involved a
sudden revolution of the whole
educational system, and to the dis
organization which followed was
added the further element of dis
order arising from the fact that
there were almost no classical
teachers in Russia. With this at
tack on the intelligence of the peo-
pie Tolstoi combined a system of
espionage by which pupils were set
to watch teachers and parents, and
teachers to watch pupils and patrons.
Even the Russians could not bear
this interference, and in 1880 the
Tsar removed Tolstoi from the De
partment of Public Instruction.
Two years later Tolstoi became Min
lister of the Interior. He was one of
the strongest reactionists in Russia,
and was deservedly the most unpo-
pular man in the Empire.

ATTRACTIONS FOR TOURISTS.

Nothing succeeds like success" is
a common remark and very true;
and the success of Honolulu, in a
great measure, depends upon tourist
travel and visitors to the Islands.
Every foreign steamer that enters or
departs from this port, is crowded
with passengers who come to see or
have seen what the city has to offer
in peculiar attractions, curios, and
to them strange types of life. So
important has the tourist business
become, and with such prospect Of
arge increase, that the question of
making the most of Hawaiian attrac
tions is now an important considera-
ton. There are in our waters very
great variety of beautiful and
strange forms of life, which could be
made attractive in an aquarium,
were such an institution provided.
A public conservatory of tropical
plants, in the manner of botanical
garden open to the public and sup
ported by the Government, would
be another attraction. Regarding a
museum, an institution of that kind
is being constructed in connection
with Kamehameha School, and a
beginning has also been made in the
matter of Government botanical
garden.
We do not propose that all these
matters should be perfected at once;
but the question should be kept be-
fore the public, and beginnings or
additions should be made from time
to time. These suggestions may be
more appreciated by those who are
permanent residents than by " birds
of passages" but we regard improve
ments Of this nature as necessities
in the encouragement of tourist
travel, and as valuable helps toward
the education of our own people.
An aquarium could be built near the
water front, and managed at com
paratively little expense. Switzer-
land, and many other countries, are
almost wholly supported by tourist
travel; and it should be borne in
mind that the average tourist has
money, and spends it readily when
temptations to do SO offer them
selves. Hitherto we have not been
half alive to this source of our
national wealth, and have done very
little to systematic the attractions
which Nature has given to these
Islands.

INCONSISTENT.

"Those who live in glass houses
should not throw stones" The Bull
letin accuses us of appropriating
certain personal items that appeared
in that paper. Such an accusation
coming from the Bulletin was rather
unexpected, considering that many
items appearing in the ADVERTISER
are rehashed and inserted in the
succeeding issue of the Bulletin
Our personals" Thursday morning
included many that were not given
in the Bulletin; but, if they had,
that is no reason why they should
be excluded from the ADVERTISER.
We always give the Bulletin credit
for items that originate with anyone
on its staff; but public happenings
are public property, and we shall
contiue to insert them whether they
appear previously in the Bulletin or
not. So far as pirating is concerned,
the Bulletin does as much or more
of that, without giving credit, than
the ADVERTISER does; and the latter
paper in its last two issues gave due
credit for items from the Bulletin,
one of which was the "bull " regard
ing the toboggan.

announced that the Foreign Office.
was confident that the session would
terminate in the first week in June.
The discussion has taken course and
issue according to the forecast.
Oswald Ottendorfer, the we'll
known editor of the New York
Stats Zeitung, speaking of the
Samoan treaty, said The
majority of right-thinking Germans
are of the opinion that Germany has
gained all she is entitled to in the
conference.
Ottendorfer thinks that German
Americans generally will look on
the case from an American stand
point. He was IN Berlin when the
conference first met, and was sur
prised to learn from German sources
how little the German commissioners
decided to insist upon. 1t seemed
as if Bismarck was intending to
make complete backdown, a thing
which he seldom does. B1rmarck
had, however, become tired of the
whole matter. He had been drawn
into the trouble against his judg-
ment, and the affair had assumed a
phase not contemplated by him at
any time.
The battle between the Germans
and Samoans, Ottendorfer thinks,
was undoubtedly brought about by
the acts of the German Consul in
overstepping his powers or miscon-
STRUNG his instructions. The con-
cessions made by Germany practi-
cally show this.

ASSESSMENTS UNDER THE NEW LAW.

The appointment of Assessors for
the different islands of the group,
who jointly constitute a Board of
Equalization must commend itself
to every good citizen as an advance
stepin reform Government. Hitherto
no uniformity has prevailed in the
assessments, which have been as
varied as the characteristics of the
assessors themselves. Valuation of
property for taxation purposes which
is universal, equitable and uniform
is a great desideratum. The most
impartial distribution of the burden
of taxation should be made. 1t is
to be hoped that the Board will come
to some sort of determination of the
vexed beneficiary interest ques-
ton.
Most planters contend that the
leases which they hold for merely
nominal rental are beneficiary in
terest and therefore not assessable.
Many of them insist that improve
ments only on such leased land are
liable to assessment. The law af-
firms personal interest in personal
or real property to be such an
amount as it might reasonably be
expected to bring at a forced sale.
Such an interest would of course be
estimated by its net producing capa-
bility. The lower the rental, the
greater would be the valuation.
Clauses in the lease prohibiting
transfer cut no figure in the assess
ment. They prohibit forced sale,
but do not determine value if such
forced sale were possible. 1t does
not seem just that parties should
shield themselves behind such pre-
texts as beneficiary interests to eyade
payment of taxes on valuable indus
tries. Whatever may be determined
by the Board, we may confidently
expect a uniformity which has not
hitherto been observed.
