UNREST IN SAMOA.
The decade of tranquility enjoyed by Samoa is the best testimony to the genera! character of the present German administration, and encourages the hope that the Berlin statement — that the unrest is occasioned by the isolated intrigues of chief tain j—will be found correct, says the Auckland "Herald." In any case the colonial difficulties of Western Governments are not made the occasion of any British display or! animosity, and the same may unhesitatingly be said of the Americans. New Zealanders and Australians do not like to see European Continental Powers in the South Pacific, but as long as their flags remain here our only desire is for the peace and prosperity of the islands under their rule.
