GERMAN SAMOA
SURRENDERS To

APIA, CAPITAL OF THE GERMAN
PART OF GROUP OF SAMOAN

London, Aug. 31.-The official infor-
nation bureau announces that Apia,
seaport of Upolu, Samoan Islands,
and capital of the German part of the
group, surrendered on the morning OF
Aug. 30 to a British force from New
Zealand
Germans Samoan territory has been
considered her most strategic posses
sion in the Pacific. Following the
dissolution of the agreement of 1889,
by which the United States, Germa-
ny and Great Britain joined in guar
anteeing the neutrality and independ-
ence Of the Samoan group, treaty Of
partition was signed in Washington
in 1899.
BY this treaty all three powers con-
tinued to enjoy equality of commerce,
but Great Britain's territorial claims
were extinguished and the islands
were divided between the United
States and Germany. Meridian III
degrees west was recognized as the
dividing line. The two largest is
lands. Upola and Sayaii, with some
smaller members of the group, passed
to Germany and Tutuila and others
came under American control.
Tutuila is considered the strategic
territory of the group. At Pagopago,

has a naval and coaling station. Apia.

metropolis of the group, contains fine

When Japan entered the European
conflict by her declaration of war on
Germany, and before her explicit dec
laration that her operations would be
confined to the China sea, the appre-
hension that she might seize German

to much speculation regarding Wash

ATTITUDE Of
TURKEY IS
VERY WARL|kE
THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT HAS
WARNED TURKEY THAT IN
STARTING CAMPAIGN, SHE
SIGNS HER DEATH WARRANT.

Washington, Aug. 31.-The probable
entrance of Turkey into the European
struggle as an ally of Germany and
Austria and possible uprisings among
Great Britains Mohammedan subjects
are forecast in a wireless message 10
the German embassy here, received
TODAY from it's foreign office in Ber-
lin. The message says:
Former Minister Burnss speech
against Earl Grey's policy has caused
a deep impression and there are hints
of fatal consequences among the Mo
hammedans. News from Constantine
ple foreshadows the active participa-
ton of Turkey against Russia and En-
gland"
The military party dominant In
Constantinople has concluded that the
present is the best time to obtain the
restoration of Macedonia and the Ae-
gian islands.
German officers and men are being
poured into Constantinople. Turkey
apparently counts on the Baltic
states quarreling among themselves,
while Turkey fights Greece, but it
seems likely that Turkeys declaration
of war against Greece will be regard
ed as a hostile act by the triple en-
tente. which will send fleet to dis
nose of all the Turkish and German
ships.
The British government has warned
Turkey plainly that in starting any
campaign at this time she signs her
own death warrant.
A. Rustem Bey, Turkish ambassador
here. said tonight he had received no
word from his government indicating
that it intended to join the European
conflict. He said he had not heard
from his government for several
weeks.

Who Is Santa CLAUSE.

Santa Claus, or Pelzlickel, as that
character is called in Germany, Is
supposed to be a jolly Laplander, the
embodiment of good-nature and gen.
crosby, and he comes, red-cheeked
and red-nosed, from the land of the
SHOWS to bring veetmeats to the
little folk. But the real Christmas
celebration in Germany ome Christ
mas Eve, when the tired peasant folk,
lanterns in hand, wend their way to
the little chapels on the ,hilltops to
give thanks for the gift of the Christ.
1t is the holy night, celebrated he
cause of the light that came into the
world with the birth of Jesus Christ,
and because in those older countries
of Germany and Sweden there Is an
atmosphere of reverence and thank
fulness for this blessing.
The Germans never hang their
"Christbaum" with gifts, as we do in
this country; to them the tree is sa-
cred for the decorations that are sym
bolic of the Christmas festival, many
of which, also, are used in this coun-
try, hut usually without much under
standing as to their significance:

President +. i. McVey, Of the state
university, has written the following
letter to the editor Of the Tribune,
which is self-explanatory:, s.<.+.53r =
"The Bismarck Tribune is a news
paper. 1t is expected to present the
facts as they are In your article on
The University Asks For a Large
Sum-" under date of December 8,
1914, there are a number Of errors.
First in the addition Of the total
there is an error Of $4,000. Taking
the Tribu1e's figures, the total is
S774,940, instead Of $S04,459.G. y
Second, in the amount of apprO-
priations asked for there is an error
of $4,000 over the amount really ask
ed, reducing the total to $734,94O.
Error in Income.
Third, there is an error ii the
amount Of income of the University,
which is placed at $529,600, instead
of S405, 900, for the next two years,
as shown il the statement Of the
state auditor. Add to this the $780,
900 asked for stations and the public
health laboratory, and the sum is
S434,000 for two years, or $2l7,0C0
annually for University operation.
The income from the operation of the
Commons is all spent again for food,
service, light and heat. 1t is not an
item of income, but is a burden to
University operation and should not
be counted as a resource. "
Taking then . the appropriation
asked, 1924, S59.07, and we have for
the total $668,S59 as the amount the
state is interested in assigning to the
University for a two-year period.
"All of this is set forth with care
in the report made to the state audi
tor AID to the governor. Why, then,
the Misrepresentation, and why the
emphasis upon the greediness of the
University?
Nothing is said about the Agricul.

come is $750,OO0 for the biennial pc.
