IN GOOD SHAPE TO SAIL
The Samoan Commission Soon to
Start for the Scene of Riot.
TROUBLE MAY BE SETTLED
Baron Speck Won Sternburg Is Mem
ber of the High Commission and Is
Said to Be Very Clever Ger
man and All That.

Washington, April 1.-THE Samoan
United States naval transport Badger,
leaving San Francisco on the 25th inst.
This arrangement was made to-day af-
ter Baron Speck Won Sternberg. first
secretary of the German embassy. had
called on Secretary Hay and advised
him of his appointment as the German
member of the high commission. This
completed the body. AS the plan to
have the members get away on the
Mariposa, sailing on the 18th, was no
longer feasible. the transport Badger,
now at CaIlao, Peru, on her way to
San Francisco, was placed at the dis
pOsal of the commission.
The formal announcement of Baron
| Sternberg's appointment was received
! from the German foreign office and
| gave general satisfaction among the
| officers. Throughout the recent trou-
| bles dle exerted his influence in such a
| manner as to win the heartiest ap-
| proval of the state department as well
| as the British ambassador. His choice,
| therefore, was accepted as an evidence
| that the commissioners would be able
| to cooperate and. to reach the unani-
| nous decision called for by the admin
| istration. The early sailing of the COM
| mission is regarded as evidence that
| the recent troubles at Apia will be dip
| lomaticaly settled.
Baron Sternburg. who belongs to a
| distinguished German family, devoted
| his early life to the study of military
| and naval science. He fought through
| the Franco-German war in the I'd Sax

To the Editor OF the Register.
Sir: | have been trying all day, since
reading Judge Jackson's speech, TO rec
ohclle some OF his utteranceS With oth-
ers that l have CHANGED to learn. 1
must admit that | have failed and l
hope lnat Judge jackson will forgive
me for entertaining principles that con-
met win some OF MS views on the
strike question.
Judge jackson has an idea OF what
the relations between labor and capital
should be- Ii his ideal cannot reach
a higher standard OF justice than his
groceryman illustration would indl-
cate, then his ideal will not give uni
versal satisfaction, and is not liable to
be adopted, fer it appears ridlcuIously
narrowm minded, and one sided. Ac-
cording to his illustration, the only
alternative the purchaser has, is to go
somewhere else and buy. If he does not
consent to be cheated by the grocery
man, he must get out. If the laborer
does not get sufficient remuneration for
his service, he must get out and starye
Or buy at another tea store Judge
Jackson must remember that the kind
OF tea stores minated are none too
plentiful. Positions are not as plenti-
full as tea stores and then there. may be
only one store to buy from. The labor
En- knowing this, realizes the value Of
a position and realizes that he must
resist the INSCRIPTIONS demands of
the groceryman. His only efficacious
means of resistance is to unite with his
fellow-l aborers and make united de-
mand or resistance. If he would make
an individual stand, he wN1ld be imme-
diately discharged, and a substitute put
in his place. But where union is en-
ployed and the interest of one becomes
common interest, he has a chance Of
success. l do not agree with Mr..
Jackson's opinion, that if the laborer is
not satisfied he should quit. He has
a right to resort to honorable means
