liz utterances are Of the most
friendly and amiable kind. Blood
and iron seem, for the time. to
have given place TO milk and
honey. At a dinner given to the
Lower House OF the Prussian Diet.
the Chancellor said: "he regarded
II as an utter impossibility that the
Samoan question should have the
effect of interTupting those friendly
relations between Germany and
America which had existed for a
century. The geographical situa
ton of Samoa and the imperfection
OF telegraphic communication rend
cred II impossible for him to be re-
sponsible for all the acts Of German
agents in the Pacific. But the par
ties to the dispute were animated by
the best spirit"
The clamor which some of the
opposition newspapers in the United
States are making over the appoint
ment Of Mr.. Geo. H. Bates, as one of
the commissioners to the Berlin
conference on Samoan affairs, hardly
seems justified by facts. The sum
and substance of Mr.. Bates offend
ing consists in the circumstance
that he has published a magazine
article on the Samoan question, and
that IN his article. he took strong
ground against the action OF the
German representatives in that
archipelago. The view of the mat
ter expressed by Mr.. Bates. is sim
ply the American view. He unques-
tionably represents in the main. the
feelings Of the great majority of the
American people who have given
the subject any attention.
The claim that the holding and
frank expression of such views is a
disqualification for the position to
which he has been appointed. is q
sad exhibition of partisan rancor or |
childish petulance. The language |
used in Mr.. Bates article was. IN /
one or two instances, rather rhetor /
zeal than diplomatic, but it is absurd |
to claim that a gentleman holding no |
official position, and writing d mag
azine article for popular reading, |
should measure his words and trim
his expression TO the requirements
Of a formal state communication.
that appears in the offend
ing article affords any justification
for the charge that he has ''insulted"
Bismarck and "insulted" Germany.
The position of the members of
the conference Is not that of judges
II jurors, to hear and decide upon
matters in regard to which they are
and concerning which
hey may have been previously
gnorant 1t is rather that Of repre-
and even advocates of the
interests and opinions Of
hose by whom they have been ap-
pointed. For Germany to object to

Low prices have brought out buyers and the

among operators is strong that the tide has
turned toward better day for the grain trade.
