Adelaide South Australian Register (Newspaper) - October 27, 1854, Adelaide, South Australia National Library of Australia i ave been willing to have agreed to a larger increase ? lie hoped that his remarks would have satisfied the Hon. Member for West Adelaide. As they had not however he Woald Alc leave to withdraw the Bill.1 and he would recommend that it should be withdrawn not for ant fixed time hut until further advices should be received from eng land with reference to. His excellency s Suc Cessor which would probably be within a fort night. .?.-. Jul a. Baker said the government would perhaps not object to include All perquisites to his excellency in one sum for salary As he thought it was somewhat degrading and inconvenient to have charges for travelling and other expenses subjected to. Question in the audit office. There should be no details but a fixed aum to i cover All. Save granted to withdraw second Reading. District councils amendment a ?. Bill. In committee. The advocate gemeral said when the Bill was last in committee its consideration had been adjourned at the request of the Hon. Mem Berj Monthe port in order to ascertain what modifications were necessary to meet the wishes of his constituents and the Public. As the clauses were proceeded with that Hon. Gentle Man could offer sue n suggestions As he thought were calculated to improve the Rill. Clause 1. Providing that District councils existing at present shall remain in office until March next was amended and passed. Clause 2. Providing that no District coun ? Caudr after vacating Oil ice shall be liable to Fife for refusing to serve a Ain within three years was passed. ? clause 3. Providing that no vote shall be disqualified by reason of non payment of rates fort e period Only of fourteen Days was passed. Clause 4. Providing that members of District councils May be declared to a elected without poll. did not wish to oppose the Clame but there were several suggestions that he wished to make with regard to the Amend ment of the old and lie wanted to know what was the convenient course for him to pursue whether to suggest amendments to the different clauses As they were proceeded with or to make some general observations embodying his suggestions. The Hon. Member then pointed out several defects in the old . The advocate general thought it would be expedient for the Hon. Gentleman to state his objections when the clauses referred to came under discussion with regard to the other matter to which he referred he the advocate had been favoured by other members with suggestions As to improvements in the Bill and he would be glad to consider with them those of the Hon. Member for mount Barker. He would than either adopt them or be Able to state in Council Why he could not assent to them. Hear hear he would allow of the division of districts into wards and that separate councillors should be returned for the wards thus preserving the general interests of tie a strict from being prejudiced by local interests. Another suggestion that neither stipendiary magistrates nor publicans should i a Leej District councillors deserved serious consideration. Again one of the suggestions he received was opposed to a recommendation by the Hon. Member for mount Barker but All would be discussed at the postponement. V or. Reynolds thought the limit of one Hoar was too Short. The advocate general said it was not settled How Long a person might talk in South Australia. A laugh in the great number of costs there was no opposition yet As the Law stood the Assembly had to remain sequently at a Public House All Day. It was so found that Many persons who were never ropo8ed, and who had no desire to serve were elected. The clause was then passed As read. Clause 5, declaration of names of members elected pissed As read. Clause 6, providing that non attendance for three consecutive meetings vacated office unless through illness or other unavoidable cause or by leave of such Council proviso that a person leaving the District May resign without Wjk Nalty passed. Clause 7, providing that the annual meetings shall be in the second week of March passed us read. Clause 8, by Laws to be Laid before the go Vernor. \ rhe advocate general remarked that that the former requirement to Lay the by Laws on the table of that House had Only in one instance been complied with. That was in the Case of the a Chunja by Laws placed on the table the previous Day. Passed As read. Clause 9th councils May propose More than one rate in the year. Or. Reynolds made some remarks which were inaudible in the gallery. The would assent to the suggestion if the Hon. Member would obtain by motion an expression of opinion favour Able to it from the Council. It was quite constitutional but he would Only on it by the desire of the Council. Or. Peacock opposed the fixing of a ? Minunno rate. He knew no instance where such a Bill was in Force and his constituents who had communicated with him on the subject were also of pissed to it. F the advocate general could not see the Wisdom of retaining an organization and allowing its to be nullified. ? or Kingston said the member for West Torrens s suggestion was Only what was now exercised by the corporation. A certain amount of rate might be declared by the councillors and if More was thought necessary they would have to obtain the assent of the ratepayers. Or. Peacock thought that invaded the fundamental principle of the Bill which was that the people should rate themselves. Hear tear or. Baker thought that was a question that should be reserved. A populous Ward Mii lit influence the adoption or rejection of a rate to the detriment of the general interest of a District. The advocate general agreed in the propriety of holding Over the clause is it was possible that a populous Ward or local jealousies might affect the rate of a District. He would move that the clause be nost Nonerl the registrar general said the. District councillors were elected by the inhabitants each having but one vote but each in habitant had votes on the question of a rate in proportion to his property. He thought the councillors 3hould be elected on the latter Prin Ciple. Looking at the subdivision of property in their numerous villages where each proprietor had paly an interest of a few shillings in the rate they should not have an equal Power of voting for councillors with persons of greater property interest. He might also remark that so Long As the present Uncertain system of de Claring Rales continued while it might one year he a shilling in the Pound and next year a Farthing a the Pound there could a nose purity for the payment of interest on Money borrowed for improvements. Or. Scott concurred in the remark of the registrar general. There was a great jealousy apparent in some districts As to trusting the councillors elected. He thought the minimum rate of sixpence expedient inasmuch As it would to least raise Means to pay the expenses incurred. Or. Baker was also in favour of the graduated scale of voting at the election of coun Villous ? or. Bagot was surprised to hear his Friend ? the members for the Burra and the port advocating excessive Power in voting to property which always had its fair share of influence. The advocate general with reference to a mistake made by the registrar general re minded the Council that the clause which empowered the raising of a loan empowered the fixing of a rate to ensure the liquidation of the. Debt such rate to Roni in in Force until the debt was paid. He confessed he was More disposed to think with the Hon. Member for Light than with the members for the Burra and the port. Committee adjourned and obtained leave to Ait on tuesday. Lunatics estate consideration of this Bill in committee was made an order of the Dav for thursday 7 next. Militia Bill. A.

Boothby was read stating that lie had employed men to repair the Road near the cattle company s Bridge. The chairman referred or. Sanders to the explanation of the principle the Board acted on Given at the last meeting. It was thought the forming and Clearing could be Best included in the same contracts. The chief inspector said the contractors ont Nerosa near Crafer s invariably let the Clearing part to splitters and persons connected with such work. Or. Bonny thought still that the cheapest course was to include both branches of the work in the one contract. He was anxious to have at least a track for one Dray on that Road available before Harvest. He thought 20 feet wide enough at first. The Chai beak repeated his former caution that the Board preserve a margin As they were not certain How much would be do dusted from their funds for the Northern Bridges. It was determined to invite fresh tenders for forming and Clearing or either at Tho Width of 20 feet i Sibitt cedi and the sex bal Board. Or.

Angas that a Short could be introduced empowering the Board to declare new main roads. Or. Babbage thought the Board should be asked to furnish a special report on that subject. The Hoard had abstained from taking the initiative on such subjects for the simple reason that there were already More main roads than they had funds to make or keep in repair. That of you redid not assume that there were not More main lines Oparina District. Or.

Scown for the manner in which the District Council had assisted the Board in superintending the work in question. Or. Scown hoped he would soon have to thank the Board for surveyors. Tho work done would be useless unless the Lino was continued. The District operations were he said at a stand still until the main line was de fined. They had collected a rate but could not spend the Money until they knew where the main Road would run. .?._ ? the chairman intimated that the chief inspector would be Happy to communicate with or. Sanders a gentleman recommended by 3ir. Scown and if satisfied with his capacity he would be engaged to Survey the i line. Jorth Bast brn Road. Or.

Fonts other indications of activity on the North Eastern Road in Para Wirra. There were some places Between or. Randall s and Bloomberg which were impassable. If the Board could not do something there the Tal Nara Board be was at the same time anti Oil to have the Assurance that their Money or that of the Central Board should not be thrown away upon a line that might afterwards be abandoned. He would willingly devote a Day or two with a Surveyor if the Board would detach one to Point out the places that urgently required repair. The Board was willing to vote a Small Sura say �100,towards the repairs if Tho District Board would under take to superintend the work and or. Hardy would be sent out As soon As possible to inspect the places referred to by or. Fisher. With regard to the deviation by the Black Hill the Shabjian said he thought the original Road through Bead s paddock was the Best ?. Or. A Babok did not agree with the chairman he he not think the matter had been sufficiently examined. T was not enough to take the line supposed to be Best jut trial sections should be taken to ascertain if the inches could not by a slight circuit be avoided that Jere incurred by descending to Houghton and ascending i . Bonnet said he had examined the plaii3, and he a no advantage from further delay. A better gradient night be found but it would be Only by a great increase of distance 1 in 13 was not in his opinion such an of Section Abl gradient. On the Glen Osmond Road there Rasa gradient of in 7. .?-.? or. Babbage thought that what was now considered Oler Ablo As a gradient would hereafter be remedied at a great expense and it Woald be better to avoid that necessity now fit enl be done by a Little farther elimination. They had also to consider whether they would continue the Road Over Oligher Onibe Hill or not. The chairman said All agreed that it was desirable to avoid the Blank Hill go that the Point undetermined was reduced to the question whether they should retain the a Radium of 1 i 13 or avoid it by a Detour.

Bait age said he was of opinion that had Anstey s Hill been properly examined by a former Board the take of opening a Branch by the Tea tree Gully would not i ave been committed. It was now found that they had two branches one of which would have to be abandoned. . Or. Rankine called attention to the main line of Road leading to Strathalbyn at the request of the chairman ? or. Bas3ett, who could not attend in town. It was with reference to the completion of the Survey of the mainline that he troubled the Board As the District operations Ivere a pendent on that. It was important also he said to whether the boar adoptee the principle of selecting tha be3t line or the cheapest. The line left Abr the Public was almost impracticable while the old line Ivas very Good but it would now have to a bought at a great expense. Or. Babbage said it would be an immense advantage to the country if there was a staff of Pioneer surveyors attach cd to the land office whose business it would be to Lay out roads in the first instance with reference to Tho general features of the country and not of each Section is was now done by the fury Yors no doubt to the Best of their judgment Buttic limited object they had in Riew was detriment Aho the Public interest. Or. Bonnet thought the District Rorls should also be Laid out by the Rune officers. The chairman said those remarks could Only apply to. The unsettled districts and it was. The settlement of popu lation that determined the importance of particular routes and the greatest foresight might be set at nought by tha discovery of a mine or some such circumstance. Or. Davin Post said there were certain fixed Points such As harbours to which main lines might with great certainty a Laid Down. Or. Giles said the Midi if arose from their not having a sufficient surveying staff years ago. Or. Rankine concurred. It vould Cost an immense 3um now to remedy the neglect of former years the Law s Delat. Or. Babbage thought there should be some expression of opinion from the Board As to the delay caused by the Crown Law officers. He proposed that a letter should be addressed to the colonial Secretary calling attention to the fact that forms had been three times returned by Tho Crown solicitor although framed in the first instance in strict compliance with that officer s instructions. Or. Bonnet thought they should have the whole matter before the Board. The forms might have been returned to Correct errors for which they were account Able. The return suggested was ordered to be prepared for the information of the Board. Wellington Fekry. The salary of the ferryman was increased by �50 per annul. Or. Davenport called attention to the propriety of devoting some part of Tho funds to enable the ferryman to prevent the encroachments of Sand on the River and also to the advisability of procuring anew punt. He also enquired what had become of the new Wellington ferry . The secret aet said it was in the hands of the government. The Chai Max directed the Secretary to write to the colonial Secretary calling his attention to the Wellington ferry and to urge its introduction with the amended Road . Jew offices of the boxed.

Baker Brothers were accepted for the roofing and Joiner work of the new offices. The tender of Hall Anut Togers for plastering was accepted. Boad to Cape a Kvis. The following memorial was read by the Secretary the Meji Orianof the undersigned Farmers &e., residing at Addinga a Sponga Yan Kalilla and Cape Jervis show eth that your Memoria lists have been led to believe from time to time that a main line of Road would be declared to Yan Kalilla Over Sillick s or some other Hill in its immediate neighbourhood and that it should be surveyed As such As soon As the Board could spare a Surveyor for that duty. That a considerable saving As to Dis Tance would be effected in travelling to and from Ponga Over the Addinga Plains towards by a comparatively Trilling sum of Money judiciously Laid out on Sillick s Hill. That the natural roads Between the Horseshoe and the Hills with a few exceptions Are pretty Good and would require no great amount to keep them in repair. That there is already a considerable Pratlie Over the line and Only requires a trifling present outlay to make it considerably More so. Your Memoria lists would there fore respectfully urge the Board to Tako such Steps As May be deemed necessary towards opening this main line of Road signed by John Xor Man and others. Or. Bonnet said the memorial asked for a irregularity like that on the North Eastern Road. They wanted two branches one at Illunga and one at Sillick s Hill. There could not be two branches to a main Road. Or. Babbage agreed. Or. Giles dissented and referred to the number of banners that would be benefited by following up the re commendation of the memorial. Or. Bonnet remarked that it was a District Road the Memoria lists required. It was recommended there also to make 14 Miles of Road to save two Miles in distance. It was admitted that until the Board had the report of a Surveyor it was not in a position to discuss the subject and the Secretary was directed to write to or. Norman informing him that a Surveyor would be sent to Liat District next week. The go Tennill Roa. The committee of works recommended that govern ment should be memorialized to place on the estimates a special Grant for opening up a new main line Between the foot of the Greenhill and bal Hannah inasmuch As the Board possesses neither the Means nor the Power so to do under the ordinance 17 of 1852. The Board approved the recommendation. Main line to Moore Dee. It was resolved by adopting the report of the works committee to employ or. Searcy temporarily fur the Survey of this line. Sturt Bridge. The tender of Morris for earthwork was recommended for acceptance. Special report Dat Labock. The following report from the ius Peutor in chief was read received and adopted by the Board gentlemen in consequence of a letter signed Junius in dated october 17th, having appeared in the South Auila Litin Ite mater in which the writer a fleets to give a statement of some work which has been done by the labourers of the Board at the company s Bridge Aud attempts to establish a parallel Between what that work has Cost and what would have been the expense if the work was done by contract i now beg to Lay before you the actual facts which Are As follow amount paid labourers and overseer the labourers finding their own tools and the Board providing two Barrows ? �2s 10 s say 10 per cent Tor Wear and tear on the Cost of tie two Barrows original Price �2 each 0 10 �2s 111 for this sum 335 cubic Yards were filled in behind the abutment besides some sloping and dressing of Earth on the upstream face outside included in the above named rejecting any allowance for this sloping and dressing the Cost per cubic Yard is is. 7jd. If a con tractor had been employed even at 2s. Per cubic Yard a very novel figure i assure you in the records of tender the Cost of tills work would have been �33 10s. To say nothing of the outside work alluded to for which i take no credit in the sum of �23 is. -id., but which in a contractor s hands would have been and very fairly an extra item consequently instead of this work having Cost so per cent More than if set by contract it was done for 14.32 per cent Les even if we have the contractor s calculation upon the very problematical offer of 2s. Per cubic Yard. I reluctantly take up the tiny of th2 Board with these details but As the statement published by the Anonymous writer went to establish a charge of wasteful and injudicious expenditure and to draw unfavourable inferences i deemed it Only an of Justice to the Board and to their executive to put before them the real facts of the Case.

Hay refer ring to the nuisance in Runde Street arising irom rom Rose s brewery Inui Auer Man water Man declared that he Felt no inconvenience from the said nuisance and at a later period when the Council was discussing the propriety of spending �25 on the repair of a cottage for Tho residence of the slaughterhouse inspector or. Waterman getting warm at some remarks made in reference to �95 having been spent on the said cottage a few months ago after de Claring that the manner in which the work had been done was a disgrace to the City Surveyor thought proper to say that the Laundle Street. Nuisance was a fool to it now without Stop Ping to examine the propriety of using Sish language respecting the conduct of a responsible officer of the Council referring to work done nearly a year ago and which at the time caused no complaint i would Liko to ask or. Waterman what analogy he can find Between the dilapidated Walls of a cottage and a pestilential matter being sent Down the Drain of a thick y populated Street is it because some of the members of the Council thought that the inspector by not having inhabited the cottage according to Promise had cockeyed them that we Are to put up with an outrageous nuisance endangering our very existence and again does or. Waterman suppose because he is possessed of such Dull olfactory sense that everybody else is equally blessed has or. Waterman forgotten that a few weeks ago a memorial was presented to the Council signed by nearly All the inhabitants in the Neighbour Hood declaring the dram a nuisance and pre judicial to health and if or. Waterman is Dull of smelling he can surely see does he not know that three infants were carried away within a month or two from five adjoining houses opposite to his own and surely he cannot be ignorant that the neighbourhood is Rife with the incipient seeds of cholera the dysentery and Bowel complaint. Does he not know that people to escape the effluvia walk on the other Side of the Way and that persons in carriages will drive up to a shop give their orders and then move to the opposite Side of the Street and wait till the order is completed ? if he does not know these things he is certainly More ignorant than his Neighbours list what Ever or. Waterman May think the Public know Liis to a a crying a abominable nuisance and i in behalf and consent of Neighbours As Well As myself Call on the Council to remedy it. They have the Power to remove the Drain which runs across the Footpath. There was no nuisance in the Street before that Drain was allowed and allow to Tell them that their officers enforcing fines for Small offences and winking at Large offences is not Likely to make the Council so respected As it is the wish of the citizens they should be.
