waters have been German possessions since

is, therefore. n colonial empire covering an area
almost one-thIrd that Of the United States, with
population OF over 7.0OO.OOO.
Now. what changes have fifteen years pos

west Africa has population OF 1.0So male

these $50 Germans $50 are soldiers and officials.
German East Africa has about 40 white popu-
laion OF whom 431 are Germans the greater
part of them being soldiers and officials, living
chiefly in the seaport Dar-Es- Salam, n little
south of Zanzibar Togo has 70 Germans. OF
whom 23 are officials and 81 are missionaries.
The white population Of Kamerun Is 80 ana
of these only 157 are German Finally. the

any auspices other than imperial have been
fairly successful In Africa the colonization
schemes Of Germany seem to have made no
Roadway ut all. The climate may have some
thing to do with It, but better reason for the
i'll success which has attended the German Gov
ernments efforts so far Is in all probability the
bureaucratic and often tyrannlcal character OF
the German officials and military men who are
sent out to administer the colonies. They are
unable. apparently to adapt themselves to the
necessities Of an absolutely different mode of
life. and either wear themselves and the natives
out with punctios and red tape, or else Use their
power as did Peters and Wssman. with the ar
