SOUTH AFRICAN NATIVES THE DEPUTATION TO ENGLAND.
(By Telegraph.— Press Association.— Copyright.) - CAPETOWN, 16th May. The Union Government vainly endeavoured to dissuade the native deputation from sailing for England to place their grievances before the Imperial Parliament. The Premier . (General Botha) pointed out that the Lands Act separated the two races in the interests of both, and was simply an instalment of legislation designed to provide a lasting settlement. He warned the deputation that the Parliament and people of South Africa would not tolerate outside interference. [A previous message stated that, " alleging that there is grave dissatisfaction among the natives against the Government's management of the Native Affairs Department, a deputation representing various South African tribes were to leave on Saturday to lay their views before the Imperial Parliament."]
