SAMOA DOING WELL.
Natives Like to be Soldiers, and Are
Proud o! the Honor.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 12-40111
munder H. F. Tilley, U. S. N., governor
of the United States possessions in
Samoa, who has just arrived here on
leave of absence discussing the ccndl
lions there anl : “wa natives are
now docile and contented. When i
was boarding the Venture they gave
me a ‘Slcwa' of Samoan cburlvarl to
show their goow will. 'l‘cn girls and
ten men tollowodtba boat; singing and
making manic by beating mate with
sticks. A great many farewell tokens
were pressed upon me, but the cus-
toms cfllcerc demand duty on them.
and the presents are hardly worth tile
expense.
"We have permitted the natives to
follow their own customs when they
Were not pernicious. it was necessary
to reform their customs regulating
marriage and divorce. The unique
mesa of the conditions and the remote
pass from higher authority compelled
me to net the part of a supreme law
giver. as well as that of an executive
officer. I leaned ordinances forbidding
the transfer of real property to whites
by natives, and regulating contracts
between natives and whites. The on
(finances ‘wcre uccosalry for the pro-
tection of the natives and the general
laws of the United States do not fill
the conditions in the lslunds.
"The possessions are divided into
counties. each governed by a native
officer appointed by the American
commander. This system has pleased
the Someone. Recently the chief’s at
F‘nga Togo olfercd the water front land
to the government at a reasonable
price and announced that they would
build a Presbyterian church with the
money. The London mission works
among them. All the natives are
Christians and extremely religious.
“Peace was what the islanders neod—
ed. They had been warring perpetual-
ly and the warfare interfered with pro-
duction. The soil voluntarily yields
bread fruit, cocoanut and everything
the Snmoans require to out, and there
is no reason why they should work. it
is not surprising therefore that they
are inclined to idleness.
“Under the American stimulus the
product of our possessions ought to

the principal production although the
Cocoa and tobacco cm a are worth no-

“Evidence of the docillly or the na-
tivoa is the fuel that recently they
raised a tax levy of $7.500, paid in
copra. to defray the cost of the native
part of the government;
