CURRENT COMMENT.

The state of Texas believes that the REQ
pie who make her laws should be fully
abreast of the times. The Florida Times
Union and Citizen Dem) says: Texas
pays for five newspapers daily for each
legislator and allows him to choose The
education of the representative is the duty
OF the state, but most of them think he
should prove his capacity to appreciate
wisdom before his election-after that he
Is too apt to think he knows 1t all for the
papers to help him."
The Philadelphia Record (Dem.), says:
"At best this subsidy bill is a scheme TO
aggrandize a comparatively few shipown-
ers and shipbuiiders at the expense of the
American people, when by simple repeal of
the Navigation laws what 1t ostensibly
proposes in the creation of an American
merchant marine would be accomplished
without the cost Of dollar to the taxpay-
ers.'
The Washington Post Qnd), says: The

ed to go out on strike. The walking

IT IS GERMANY'S IDEA
TO WRESTLE WITH THE SAMOAN
PROBLEM.
IT WILL Be GIVEN THE FULLEST POWERS
No Doubt Entertained that a Satisfactory So.
Iwion of the Difficulty viii be Reached.
A Cute Stage Of The Samoan
Affair Past,

Washington, March 31.-A Joint High
Commission to settle the entire Samoan
trouble has been practically agreed upon
by the United States. British and Ger
man Governments. Lord Salisbnry's alb
sence from London alone delays the
formal acceptance by Great Britain,
though in his absence Sir Thomas Sand
erson and Mr.. Villiers, who are under
stood to be especially familiar with the
Samoan question, have approved the
plain for a commission The United
States has informally expressed its APP

learned from the highest qrdfter will

of course, is assured. This high ccm-

ton to the whole trouble at the moment
when Samoan affairs began to look he
most threatening.
The new plan has been fully gone over
by Secretary Hay and the British and
German Ambassadors here and it's es-
sential details worked out Each nation
is to be represented by one member on
the commission. 1t is to have practically
unlimited authority, without the necessi-
ty of referring its decisions back to the
several Governments for approval. 1t is
felt that by comforting such complete and
final authority on the high commission
the danger will be obviated of any
further deadlocks and delays.
Still another important provision under
consideration is that King Oscar, of Nor
way and Sweden, shall be the umpire in
case the three high commissioners should
fail to reach a determination. The plan
of inviting King Oscar to referee a dis
agreement meets the approval of the
British and German authorities, and
doubtless will be approved also by the
United States as means of ensurlng
finality of decision, though it is not
known Just how far this has been con-
sidered by the Washington authorities.
King Oscar was agreed upon between
the United States and Great Britain rs

proposed Anglo-American arbitration

ter. He is also mentioned in the treaty
of Berlin as the one TO name & chief
Justice of Samoa in case the three sig

gestion of his name at the present time
