SAMOAN AFFAIRS.


APIA (Samoa). Sept. S.-Ano;her
month has passed and all is quiet in
Samoa. The natives are In their
homes. and copra-m making has been In
full swing. Consequently business is
brisk and copra is In plenty. The pro-
visional Government pursues It's way
without any trouble having arisen. Ma
taafa chiefs complained just before the
departure to New Zealand by last down
mail, through their lawyer, Mr.. Cooper
o. New Zealand, to the provisional
Government that Malietoa's party were
not behaving as the Commissioners
had ordered, the chief ground Of COM
plant being that the Tanu men re-
NAMED round Apia, and that Tama-
sese had not gone to his own village.
The Consuls promised to look into the
matter IL Mr.. Cooper put the complaint
in writing. and this he promised to do.
Major MAR. after investigating
claims for losses during the late dis
turbances by Britishers. amounting in
all to about $4,000. left by the Moana
ten days ago. as did Mr.. Cooper.
w. Cooper. who has just returned
from visit to Mataafa, reports that
the chief has almost recovered from
his recent illness and that he is busily
engaged in building a mausoleum for
his fathers bones, which he Is keep
ing in box in his own home. Mataafa
has been the means OF recovering much
of the property which was stolen dur
ing the war, and he has restored 1t to
it's rightful owners.
Ex-King lamasese was married last
week to a reputed daughter of Ash. one
Of Malietoa's right-hand men and one
/ OF those deported with the late King
in 1888. The bride Is really daughter
OF Laulu (Asi's brother), who was for
long time travelling In the United
States with the Samoan troupe Of VIII.
T. Moors few years ago. Invitations
were sent to all representative people
and all sorts OF nationalities attended
with the exception Of the Mataafa side.
The ex-King is still in Apia and looks
much better than when he was occu-
plying the kingship.
The municipal Council is arranging
to repair the roads and bridges da-
mayed during the war.
A local firm has received from Lon
don house a note for 20 shillings and
other denominations for collection
here. The notes are drawn on the
Bank Of Samoa and are deliberately en-
graved with Samoan scenes. There is
no such concern as the Bank of Samoa
and SO the notes are fictitious. The
ones received here are numbered as
high as 1900 and 1t Is surmised that at
least this number of notes has been
put into circulation. The note Ii sign
ed by a person who was here over q
year ago endeavoring to interest capt.
tai In visionary coral scheme.
The war ships Torch and Commo-
ran have returned here after shor,
absence. The Torch was absent on
police duty and the Commoran has
been out for shooting practice. The
Pylades arrived here from Sydney and
Apia.
The United States collier Abarenda
came in yesterday from Pagopago har'
Dor with her coal on fire. A large num-
Der of Samoans were soon hard al

Is only slight. will soon be overcome

Not an omclal Boycott.


In connection with the discussion Of
the proposed boycott of the Paris ex-
position next year on the part of the
press Of America, England and other
nations, In rebuke of the brutal verdict
and unfair methods Of the court mar
tial in the Dreyfus case, some misun-
derstandlngs have arisen as to the
character Of the boycott. So far 1t
has not appeared that the press Of
either of the two leading countries has
advocated any official measures of this
nature to be taken by their respective
governments. either ON the part Of the
executive or legislative branches. The
idea, as the Intelllgencer understands
1t, and so stated yesterday, is the lin
itation Of the move to an individual
withdrawal of patronage, as an indica-
ton Of the general condemnation of the
great act OF injustice.
For once, we are able to agree heart
lily with our neighbor. the Register, in
opposition to the Indiscreet purpose Of
Senator Stewart, of Colorado, to in
troduce a resolution at the coming ses-
sion of Congress for the withdrawal Of
the United States from any official par
tlclpatIon in the Paris exposition, for
this especial reason.
The Register is right when 1t points
out that the United States government
could not, In justice to itself, or under
the rules of International courtesy be-
tween nations that are at peace with
each other, and with agreeable COM
merclal relations, take such action. But
our nelghbor need not be apprehenslVe
that so absurd and lll-advIsed reso-
luton would ever be adopted by the
senate and the house, or receive the
approval of the President Such an act
would be very undlplOmatic, and we
may trust the wisdom Of both the leg
islatlve and executive branches not to
endorse the unwise and uncalled for
lack of international courtesy coming
from the western statesman.

DEMAGoGIC APPEAL.
The Iowa Democrats to German vOt-
ers orthe state.

The Iowa Democrats to German vot-
ers ofthe State.
Washington Post: The decision Of
the Iowa Democrats to relegate the
financial question and make opposition
to so-called Imperialism the main issue
of the campaign is based upon the be-
lief that the large number Of voters in
that state who are Of German extrac-
ton will support their ticket. The
Iowa Democratic leaders are impressed
with the magnitude Of the question as
a Vote-maker. and in arriving at this
conclusion 1t Is necessary for them to
regard the voters to whom they appeal
as being very narrow minded and un-
American. In order to present the
question OF imperialism" 1t will be
necessary for the Iowa Democrats to
mIsrepresent the attitude Of the i'd
ministTation, and 1t may be ratheE- DIFF
ilcult for them to do this with any de-
gree of success right up to the time the
voting begins.
The voters Of Iowa who are described
as German Americans are to be told by
the Democratic orators and the Demo-
cratic newspapers that It is the ulti-
mate intention Of the administration to
form an alliance with England. 1t Will
be recalled that the Hon. Joseph Bailey,
the dlleHante leader of the Democrats
In the house Of representatives, some
time ago made complete expose Of the
hopes OF the administration In this di-
rectIon, and this In itself is sufficient
provocation for the Iowa Democrats to
assume that the details Of the plot
have all been arranged. and that 1t Is
only waiting contamination.
With this sort Of ammunition at his
disposal the Hon. Fred White Is to go
about the state and set up an Anglo
American scarecrOw in every voting
precinct, and this particular class Of
voters will be expected to become pan
ic-stricken.
Perhaps In It's present condition the
Democratic party can afford to do al
most anything. but 1t is quite certain
that there was a time when the men
who were recognized as its leaders
would not dare go so far as to attempt
to divide the voters Of the country upon
racial lines. By setting up such false
issues as the Iowa Democrats are e&-
perimenting with, the people Of the
United States who love their country
above their party are practically dared
to vote en- masse. and 1t is not idle to
assert that this class of people, no mat
ter what country their ancestors may
have come from. constitute an over
whelmIng majority OF the electorate
However, It is not at all likely that the
Iowa Democrats will make progress
enough to bring about such state Of
affairs. The Iowa voters, whose fore
fathers were subjects Of the Kaiser.
possess sufficient intelligence to see
through such campaign material They
have never faltered In their devotion to
this country in any crisis of the past.
and It is rather late in the day for them
to begin that sort Of thing,

Embalminc Our soldier Dead.


The Intelllgencer is favored by
copies of Manila papers, Freedom and
the Manila Times (both of them Amer
lean, and printed In EnglIsh) by Mr..
Augustus Pollock, who received them
from Lieutenant Braunnersreuther
They appear to be enterprisIng jour
nails, and contain a great deal Of war
news, as well as news of the United
States for the benefit of our soldiers
and sailors. In Freedom the Intelll-
gencer notes some welcome news to
those who have friends in the army. 1t
announces that Otis H. Bowers. of the
United States hospital corps, has in
troduced system of embalmIng 80
that the bodies OF the nations dead
may be sent home to their friends in
a fair state. of preservation.
One of the difficulties in the way has
been to secure fluid strong enough to
preserve the bodies in the Philippine
climate, and heretofore 1t was lmposst-
BILE to embaIm with success. 1t is now
proposed to have a skilled embalmer
to follow the hospital corps on the
field, and when body is discovered to
at once take charge OF 1t. In this way
the remains of soldiers can be brought
home looking as natural as the moment
they fell fighting for their country.
1t is expected that II Bowers succeeds
in Impresslng the authorities with the
success of his system 1t will be adopted,
and everything possible will be done
to bring the bodies of our heroes home
as natural as in life.
