BIG SUMNER TRAVEL.

Many people have remarked on the
large traffic done by the Cape eIectrics
during the summer season and have won
dered as to the number of people who
have visited McCullum theatre at the
Cape this summer. Although we have
not got the authentic count we are
able to give an estimate OF the figures
from excellent authority and 1t may be
interesting to many people to know that
there passed over the line on return
tickets about $4,000 people. Allowing
2,OO) more on complimentary tickets
during the season and about s, 900 peo-
pie going by various conveyances or
walking, making a total of about 80, COO
people who have visited the theatre dur
ing the summer. 1t may well be called
a prosperous season.

MALIEroA TANU.
What He Says About the Partition
of Samoa.

LONDON, Jan. 12.-Malletoa Tanu,
in letter to the London Times, pub
lished today, inclosing copies OF the
protest he addressed to the United
States. Great Britain and Germany
against the Samoan treaties, charac-
terizes the partition Of Samoa as
gross violation of the treaties and as
a crime against the law of nations
only equal to the ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF
Poland, Denmark and France. He
thinks that IL it is for the great pow
ers to promote wars and annexatlons
to distract the minds of the peoples
then The Hague conference was the
greatest farce of the century.
The writer also asserts that the civ
| iIization introduced by the great pow
ers in their annexations in the South
| Seas, Africa and elsewhere Is inferior
/ TO the primitive state OF the countries
stolen. leading to war through breach
Of faith on the part of the Government
/ officials and to the decimating OF the
peoples by contagious diseases and
spirituous liquors. He continues:
1.-THE missionaries who graced our
country with their holy and unholy
presences introduced the same relig-
ious differences and hatreds against
each other as pertained at the hour In
civilized states. The missionaries live
in palatial concrete houses, with al
the luxuries their Countries can af-
ford, and charge US for Bibles and
prayer-books. which, we understand
are sent as free offerings"
Malietoa Tanu further charges tht
missionaries with extracting all the
money possible from them, In return
for which they received only Bible
a prayer book or a pilgrims Prog
ress." He charges the Wesleyan mis-
sionaries with having collected EZi,'
900 at a single meeting at Tonga, add
ing:
1.-THE missionaries aroused a grea
spirit of emulation. telling the natives
that the largest givers would be I'M
most acceptable in the sight OF GOO
thus reversing the spirit Of the wild
, ow's mite"
The Samoan chief concludes:
These be thy gods. q Israel.

10 the fighting of the plague. We
agree with the Minister and we be-
lieve that some day the epoch Of the
alleged plague will bs remembered
as one of tremendous steal. We
should like to ask the Minister a
few questions, the answers to which
might save lots OF debate, -vitupera-,
tion and loss Of time. Is there to-
day sufficient money in the treasury
to keep the Government nursery
running according to the appropria-
tion bill, besides paying few mil
lions 10 settlement OF the fire claims ?
Has this Government the power to
issue 3 percent Cover nment bonds,
as suggested by Mr.. Jones, for the
purpose of raising sufficient funds
to pay the fire claims? If such q
bond issue should be legal does the
Minister believe that, say two mil
lion dollars, 3 percent, bonded loan
could be hoated in Hawaii at pres

our questions in the negative we
