GERMANY IN THE PACIFIC.
AUCKLAND'S ATTITUDE. Wanganui, March C. At to-night's meeting of the Borough Council a communication was received from the Auckland City Council asking an endorsement of a resolution protesting against hunding'back Samoa to Germany. The Mayor, in referring to this matter, recalled that in 1808, when a portion of Samoa was ceded to Germany, Mr. W. J. Napier, of Auckland, convened a meeting of protest. The leading people of Auckland, however, mainly tc snub Mr. Napier, instead of emphasising the protest, passed a lesolution expressing the opinion that there should bfe no interference in matters of Imperial policy. Time, said Mr. Mackay, has proved Mr. Napier's foresight, and Auckland evi dently now recognises the fact. The resolution was endorsed.
