Gorgon arrival to aid Bunbury water scheme proposal
The Gorgon wreane with 250 tons of general cargo from Fremantle arrives intended to aid Bunbury’s water scheme. The plan envisages a reservoir on a rocky Collie River gorge providing water to Birthplace and irrigating 4 000 to 5 000 acres below the trailing Range. Debate grows on municipal versus national control with concerns over cost and equity, and potential parliamentary rejection of nationalisation.

Debates Over Bunbury Harbor Funding and Local Finances
The article argues that public funds should favor projects benefiting a locality. Geraldton seeks a £15,000 water scheme, while Bunbury has £185,000 already spent on harbor works and £23,000 more planned. Bunbury’s larger shipping needs and prior agitation are noted, questioning government justification for funding Bunbury’s water scheme.
