SAMOAN AFFAIRS.

The reconciliation of Malietoa with
the German authorities is significant
if one takes into consideration the at
titude of Mataafa a few weeks ago. 1t
will be remembered by those who pay
attention to Samoan affairs that the
willy Mataafa and his supporters had
organized a mat presentation which
according to Samoan custom was an
acknowledgment of a kingship. The
German Governor countered this move
by being present when the presentation
was made. and having it understood
that Mataafa received the mats as an
appointee of the German Emperor, and
therefore the ceremony was an ack-
nowledgment of the sovereignty of the
German Emperor. Whether this was
clearly understood by the Samoans or
not, from the point of view of the do
minant power it was clear enough, and
that after all is what, is necessary.
1t must, however, have become patent
to the ruling authorities in Samoa, that
neither Mataafa nor his supporters
comprehend the situation. They do not
understood that they have been an
neXed and that all chance of native
sovereignty has come to an end. The
Mataafa party was the German party
of Samoa, because it thought it would
have German influence and German
arms to crush the Malietoa party. Hav-
ing come out on top during the mix
up the Mataafa party does not see
clearly why it should not be the con-
trolling power, and it is intriguing for
such controlling power. Mataafa and
his followers cannot understand that
the inevitable has happened They
have an idea that Germany may with
draw, as the tripartite arrangement
was Withdrawn.
That such ideas should gain currency
among the Samoans, is, perhaps, not
to be wonderd at. The western ma
tions in dealing with Samoa have shilly
shallied a great deal. The Samoans
have on various occasions killed Euro
pean and American sailors, for which
the punishment has been practically
slight. This has given them an inor-
dinate idea of their own prowess and
their own Importance, The Samoans
cannot understand the enormous power
of Germany if she chooses to use it.
The German Governor, on the other
hand does not want to use that power
if it can possibly be avoided.
This probably brings US to the solu-
tion of a reconciliation between Malie-
toa and the Germans The Governor
is willing in the interests of peace to
play one set of Samoans against the
other. AS long as Mataafa had ap-
parently the full support of the Ger
mans he could play a peculiar game
among his own people, Now, however
that Maletoa comes into the field and
is recognized by the Germans, Mataafa !
will find a very different condition of .
affairs, Instead of as in the past play
ing German interests against Amer-
can and British interests, upon which
the chief, built his power, the tables are
completely turned and it is the German
Governor who will play one Samoan
chief against another in the interests Of
