Validity Of Their Acts Is Called Into
Question.

Several cases in which a pro tenn
judge figured were argued in the su-
preme court today. The principal case

itself is attacked and the construction

ion will be important. If the law stands
the Instructions placed upon it may
revise district court jurisprudence.

by the people of Tutuila to President
Mckinley:
To His ExceIIency, the President of the
United States of America.
Your Excellency: Our good and es-
teemed father, greetings: The people of
Tutuila wish to express their thanks for
your reelection to the most honorable
position of president of the United
States Of America.
1t seems now, that with that election
our great anxiety Of the past is at an
end
We willingly ceded our country to
your government. and we are now great
" rejoiced with the annexation Of this
portion of Samoa to the United States.
Our hope in the United States is now
strengthened; We feel that as you have
considered us kindly. SO you will do like
wise in the future.
We are deeply grateful for all that
viii to US you gave to us a leader. a gov
ernOr.a high chief whom we have learn
ed to love and to respect.
He Commander B. F. Tilley1 has
framed a government suitable for Us.
Our great fear at first was that we
would be cast aside in our government,
our customs which we honor would be
changed or interfered with, we feared
the rule Of the soldier military rule)-
But now our doubts are finished. We are
satisfied because the good governor you
sent to US has been faithful and kind
TO US and has kept his promises. He
has made good laws with wisdom and
according TO our opinion. IN days gone
by such laws we had were indiscrina-
inately broken but now the wrongdoer
fears the law; he knows he will be
punished in the courts esta blished by
the governor and over which he has
placed wise, impartial judges who judge
uprightly.
We dwell now with safety and IN
friendship with each other. Under Com
mander B. f. Tilley we are learning, we
are improving and we hope TO become
worthy of our connection with the Uni
ted States.
But our anxiety now is lest he be re-
moved from US, according to the custom
of the governments Of great nations.
Our prayer is. If it shall be pleasing
to you and to Commander B. E TilIev
that he remain with US always or until
all he has inaugurated has matured AMI
the good work he has commenced -
taken deep root in the country and has
become Interchangeable and for this NE
will be over thankful
May our God in His graciousness be-
stow life and happiness upon YOU
We are your true children.
