MUST PROTECT THE NATIVES.
Chamberlain Says They VIII He En-
cOurnged and Assisted.

London, Feb. 15.-In the House of Com
mons to-day, during the course of a reply
to a question relative TO the probable Boer
invasion of Zululand, the secretary of
state for the colonies, Joseph Chamber
lain, said that the government had de-
cided that If the native territories were
invaded by the Beers, the natives will be
encouraged and assisted in every way in
defending themselves"
Mr.. Chamberlain's reply confirmed the
reports of the invasion of Zululand and
showed the consequences could not fail to
be serious throughout South Africa, as the
alarm and unrest of the Zulus was bound
to spread to the Natal natives.
The colonial secretary also said that the
Natal ministry had notified the home gov
ernment that it could not any longer be
responsible for the peaceful attitude of
the Zulus, as the invasion of their coun-
try was contrary to a tacit compact that
the natives should not be dragged into the
war.
