TRANSVAAL'S FISCAL POLICY.
PREMIER REFUSES PROTECTION AGAINST SISTER COLONIES, Received 4th, U p.m. Pretoria, March -1. Mr. Botha, the Premier, declined that the farmers' request for the re-imposi-tion of protection against the neighboring States was absolutely impossible. He would rather resign than surrender his principles. He thought that some day the duty on over-sea goods might be increased, hut free trade with the Capej and Natal must continue. The speech produced friction between the Ministry and Het Volk party.
