I i on the House resuming the Resolution of the committee was to plod. ? local government Bill second Reading. V i Tho Atto net Genii Rai in moving Iho Doc and Reading. Of the local government Bill rid,that a Tho time had arrived the country in tiits should be provided with Botter moans of governing themselves. By Giying Tural districts self government the Dentral government would to relieved from Mph of Tho work which now looked up the Var Iowa off Ioen while there was a pro spent of a saving being a i noted in Tho administration of the affairs of the country As hings were at present it was. Probable tha t the country did not get Miore than two thirds value for Tho Money expended not owing to any fault of government officers but simply owing to the difficulty of keeping up a Buff Sciont tafe at reasonable expense. These were Bloof ? Tho Elb a i i obis Tecl a hut her did not pro pose Tov contend that the e Bill before Tho House would remedy them .111. The question Jho w Ever that they had to consider was what were the evil i which. Existed \ and what wad who. Beat Modo of remedying them f from Tho evil that Tho expenditure for Joca Publio Woike and the control of it . Top Januch centralized in Tho works. Office and not a o Ril sprang the practice had., a tendency. To make one people Labe thou h bite of self Reliance which were the distinguishing characteristics of Colo lists. V an having Rof orred to that benefits neighbouring colonies derived Froid Lowood go vement irooaeied1 to Rovie Vtha .mb.1 1 minutely premi since that in uhe past the enforcement of the municipal act of 1864 had been voluntary it could Only. To put inf oreo. Upon petition from those twilling to form thei selves into miraipditte8.t if left voluntarily they must Trust not Tjoe Offlie dial Universal Publio opinion but to the opinion of a majority a i a particular District. It was necessary Tor fore hat there should be some Moo of. Enabling it to be applied to a District Jeven without the will of the inhabitants of the District. The Ronly inducement to a District to come under an act of this kind was to provide that the inhabitants of i he Sist rial incorporated should have separate advantages Ned that must be a matter for this House and Publio option to Deal with. They must absolutely set their faces against granting any expenditure of Public Money to districts which would not take advantage of these provisions if apply crib a to them. It would be of course useless to incorporate that Bill because it could be Owr. Ruled by member moving that a sum of Money be placed on Tho estimated for such or Sueh a in probe. If parliament determined that they would Grant Money for this and that dist riot notcoilstittitedbil6�alself-government, failure must by attributed not to any Hill that might be introduced but to the state of Public opinion which governed parliament and Iti diced it to take step. In Deang with town and country municipalities two courses were open1 either to have a separate Bill Ifor each or to incorporate none Hill the provi Sions applicable to both. Atwould Bosteen that an immense majority of Tho provisions must be equally applicable to both such As the machinery. For electing councillors for preparing by Law and ? for other general Pui poles. In Victoria the subject was dealt with in one statute m South Australia Thore were Throe and in now South Wales Thero were two but of fall the systems he was impressed with the notion that the Apt of Victoria worked Best. The present measure had been framed on a bomb what similar basis. The Bill then dealt with existing municipalities and provided schedule for Clearing up As to their being legally constituted. The 7th Section dealt with the municipalities of Roma and Maryborough,1 which had become extinct by the act., of the aldermen. Tho Only Means Jat present existing for reviving them was by course of Law and the whole question was of tromly . The Namo of another Munici Pality namely that of Townsville had been omitted from the list but it was intended to add it in committo. The Bill then treated of two kinds of municipalities town and country the former to be composed of mayor and aldermen and the latter of a chairman and councillors the num Ber of councillors being flexible six eight ten or twelve half of whom to go out yearly. There was a 1 provision in clause is dealing with the consequences of the dissolution 1 of a municipality and the Canning on of anew one covering the a my ground As its Predeo Esso. The 16th Section defined the Powers of the governor in Council to constitute and alter the of municipalities and Tho. 17th. Declared How the bound Aries wore to be defined. Clauses up to 27 g4vq the governor in Council Power to top in Rad last for the ? Peop Loi in cases where they were not inclined to act for themselves. Par four related to.

If that Bill did inti Pasa Thida evasion it would be Ziec Eazary to Intro Ueo a. Lauao into the Bill j now Bofo to Tho House to enable corporations to Inak a Road under. The existing Law. To hoped1 Bill would be allowed to pass Tho second. I aiding. I or. M Iliavi Ianth looked of the measure Msj of ado Clumsy and not adapted for Tho purpose intended. It was one out of which were eliminated the clauso3 giving my Uci parities the right to make Xoa Daj Bud by the att Omoy Uon Orai Naa explain of Lac was a mutter to do debit with in another Bill. They were reduced therefore to Someth us very like a municipal Law because the affairs of the Road districts and Shires were excluded altogether. Another rather significant thing pointing to Tho fact that it was hot a Bill that was of posted to to applicable to Tho country districts was that it had been brought in by Tho attorney Gene ral. A Biu of this kind it was always considered should to brought in by the mini Lor for works but a the attorney gooral had brought it in homr. M a wraith was satisfied it was Mortoly a technical Logal b h and nothing More a consolidation ii fast of All existing statutes upon Tho subject. To Thon at considerable length criticised the Bill and Oon Clu Dod by expressing his disapproval of it. I or. Groom severely Cipiti embed Tho Bui but expressed his intention of voting for it. Or. Murphy was in favour of Tho Moas a hut or. I Bailey thought it inadequate. Or. Maor Ossou could owned Tho proposal to tax the minors. I Tho said that to was pleased to Fleo that Tho opposition was inclined to Dis cubs Tho Mattor fairly to Aono lodged that there Wab a certain amount of roughness about Tho measure which would to pruned Down in committee. To Beli Ovod that instead of promoting a Central form of Gove Rumont efforts should to directed to Seetom of local government and in this Bill whatever defects it , there were top germs of what would Provo a wide spread by Poat to the country digit roofs whilst it was Moat valuable As a codification of Tho Muni Ripal Laws. To believed it could to effectively Oxton ded to Tho country districts also and so the wishes of the Publio generally would to met. But he was afraid Tho people country districts of Tho Colony were not yet prepared to apply them selves to local government in Tho Way that was of posted by Eomy honourable Mem Bers and probably Tho system might be adapted to Moro thickly Popula Toa portions of Tho Colony. To thought Thero was much in Tho Bill that would be found useful and from the Mannor in which it had been received and Tho Cut scism that had been applied to it he had some Hope that it would be passed into Law and become a very useful measure.

On one Keeae Iii during Tho Turko ser via i War of 1870 Tho services had taken up a Strong position on the Veliki Jouvor to the eastward of Tho River Timo Kand not far from Fri year completely commanding nil the surrounding country and a turkish Force advancing from Widding under the orders of Osman Pasha had pitched its while its commander was absent reconnoitre no the sorbian position within the Rongo of the enemy s artillery re turfing from hib reconnaissance the turkish to Tho Condus Ibn that the Force he had with him was not sufficiently Strong to justify him in venturing an assault upon to tops holding ground so Strong As that occupied by Tho serbians and Tho ref Ore deter mined to remain stationary until reinforce ments could to brought up from Widding.
