officers and the natives as honest. capa-
BILE and popular His salary will be

Lieutenant Thompson, of the Thirty

REFORM SYSTEM OF TAXATION,
Presen, English System Violently AZ
tackled by Times and Daily Mail.

NEW YORK, April lL--A dispatch to
the Tribune trom London says
The sickness of foreign news has
directed the attention OF the press once
more to the reform system of taxation
which the chancellor ~ the 5xchequcr
may fnd it eNpedient to recommend In
the budget speech. II he succeeds In
pulling himself together sor courage
eous effort 20 thrown down the gaunt-
let to SIR William Vernon Harcourt,
The Daily Mail has been advocating
a tariff virtually of the protective order
for several months and It's protest
ayains; unlimited direct taxation have
been even more strongly accentuaied
since the return OF Sir Alfred Harms
worth from America. This Increased
emphisls would mean more II Mr.
Harmsworth's friend, Lord Rosebery,
were In Berkeley square instead Of It.
ally.
The Times Is a gun OF longer range
than Mr.. Harmsworth can fire and its
bombardment Of the existing system OF
taxation is more destructive The
anonymous correspondent % whom are
accorded the honors Of large type with
sympathetic leader writes like an
other Cir Robert Glffen in his mastery
OF financial controversy and the science
Of economies. This gun practice is not
continuous but every long range shot is
deliberately aimed at graduated income
taxes and progressive death dues as
the sole resources Of the treasury In an
imperial crisis.
The alliance Of these two journals FOR
what dissatisfied Tories describe as tar
IN reform. fills the Liberals with JOY
Already they are moCking at these Tn
inn'st attempts TO excite sympathy FOR
the poor. unhappy rich. oppressed with
income taxation, and are forecasting a
general reviving OF the Liberal party,
II the free trade system I've assiiled.
Nothing more serious than sugar duties
can be expected from timorous finan-
cier like Sir Michael Hicks Beach.
Far-sighted men in English politics
are convinced that sweeping changes in
the tariff can be justified My by a
deliberate effort to take up the business
side of the imperial 'aderation for the
benefit Of the colonies and that Mr.
Chamberlain IS the only statesman cap
able OF making so tremendous tight.

SAMOAN CENSUS.
Slight Increase in Population During
Last Thirty Years.

Correspondence II Associated PressD
TUTUILA. March q. ia San Fran
cisco. April IA census Of the popula-
ton OF the Samoan group has been TAX
en-. The number Of Sanoans in Upolu
and other islands under the German
government is 5000 while the popula-
tiOn OF the six islands under the Unit
ed States government is returned at
$500 The very slight increase during
the last thirty years IS about the same
in proportion all round.
The infant mortality is greatest and
this i due IN large measure To the
ignorance and carelessness in dieting
the young. 1t is not unusual to see a
mother feeding her infant from the
mouth after she has herself masticated
the food intended for the child. 1t is
only since the Un.fed States took pos
session that people have been able to
receive medical ? Twice and treatment
With the sanitary laws now in force
and the laws concerning the health OF
the people generally throughout the ISL
and. it is hoped tlat during the next
decade there will be a considerable in
crease OF the native population.
Governor r. F. Tillay returned from
New Zealand on the Aberanda on
March A. The natives showed their de-
light at the governors return by Civ
ing a number OF feasts In his honor.
yagisterial returns from all districts
have been sent into the high court OF
-p!l cases tried by magistrates up to
ths end of last month. The reports
indicated great improvement among the
Samoans. These statements together
with the regular reports Of the native
governors and other officials are care
fully prepared and 1rc models Of neat
ness. The native officers are not lack
ing altogether in education. but there
is good opportunity for the United
States to assist them in their desire tc
, obtain greater knowledge. ~..
