shadows appropriately the house of a king who reigns in right of 

it。  If this be all; it should not trouble us long。  Germany has 

shown she can be generous; it now remains for her only to forget a 

natural but certainly ill…grounded prejudice; and allow to him; who 

was sole king before the plenipotentiaries assembled; and who would 

be sole king to…morrow if the Berlin Act could be rescinded; a 

fitting share of rule。  The future of Samoa should lie thus in the 

hands of a single man; on whom the eyes of Europe are already 

fixed。  Great concerns press on his attention; the Samoan group; in 

his view; is but as a grain of dust; and the country where he 

reigns has bled on too many august scenes of victory to remember 

for ever a blundering skirmish in the plantation of Vailele。  It is 

to him … to the sovereign of the wise Stuebel and the loyal 

Brandeis; … that I make my appeal。



MAY 25; 1892。
