SOUTH AFRICA.
PROVIDING SUBSTITUTES. A GOOD EXAMPLE SET. THE NATIONALISTS SNUBBED. Received May a, 5.20 p.m. Capetown, May 4. General Botha's appeal to men of means, who are unable to go to the front, to provide a substitute, has resulted in every Cabinet Minister agreeing to do so, also 33 other members of Parliament, including Mr. Smartt, leader of the Opposition. Replying to the manifesto of the Transvaal Nationalist party, relative to the application of Mr. Lloyd George's speech regarding self-determination of small nations to South Africa, which was communicated to the Imperial Government, the Governor-General states that his Majesty's Government regarded the Parliament of the Union as alone authorised to speak on behalf of South Africa, and cannot enter into a duscussion with a body of private persons. —Press Association.
