INDIAN TROUBLES.
ACTION AGAINST EXTREMISTS. GOVERNMENT'S FIRM ATTITUDE. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Delhi, Dec. 20. Action is being taken everywhere against extremists and nihnerous members of the prescribed Nationalist volunteers, with their leaders, have been arrested on charges of alleged sedition. The majority of the Calcutta University students have struck, including the students at the missionary colleges. Various vernacular newspapers are being prosecuted for publishing seditious articles, or inciting the people to join the volunteers. One or two apologised to the Government, including the leading Calcutta extremist newspaper. Everywhere deterrent sentences are being passed. Regarding Calcutta, the sole idea of the extremists appears to ! be to ensure that the boycott of the Prince is complete, and propaganda is carried even to the. extent of fastening placards on stray dogs advocating the boycott. The Government's firm attitude is causing a hostile feeling, not only among extremists, but among certain moderates, and one provincial Government has decided to abandon the campaign, but it is generally considered that the Govern; ment action is justified.
