INDIAN TRAITORS TO BE BELEASED.
Lord Minto caused a sensation by stating that the Government had decided to release the deportees, imprisoned 14 months ago, on the ground that the political movement of which they were the leaders had. since degenerated into an anarchical conspiracy, waging war against British and Indian communities alike. It would be long before the evil' was exterminated unless both communities work together. He believed that the release of the deportees would encourage their mutual efforts. The Indian members cheered the announcement. English opinion gravely questions the wisdom of the release, believing that it is due to pressure from Home.
