♦_ LORD SELBORXE OX SEA POWER. CAPETOWN, May 18. At the Mayoral luncheon at Capotown as a welcome to Lord Sclborne, all shades of opinion wore represented. Lord Selborne, in a speech, said the Baltic Fleet's iassing showed the strategic importance of the Cape. He believed that strategic value would grow. The British Navy's individual utrenjrth was as much at the disposal of South Africa as that of the Motherland, which was grateful for ton contributions of the Cane nnrt Natal to the navy, especially as thejwere unconditional. What united the Empire was the sea. He hoped tlw Cape and Natal would be guides to the inland colonies, and make them understand that command of th» sea alone would enable South :J Afric-'i, without foreign interference, : lo work out its own salvation. 4
