one opinion as to the desirability of sco ing these interests represented in the Council.
That the Harbour Department has hitherto been regarded wrongly as a subsiliary branch of the Government, and its sug- gestions havu bosa treated too long in a cavalier style by the higher bureaus whasa heads are innocent of the first rudiments of shipping business. That these officials who perhaps grumble and growl because their last new box from Paris or Rogent Street is not de- Evered before the ship's anchor is well down, are those who now act as a check and a damper upon the Harhuur Depart. ment.
That if the Harbour Master wore a Member of Council, this might in tine bo modi. fied, and anyhow Captain Rumsey would pruveat the Council from getting lost in a fog over so-called legislation. That the approval of the plans and antion- Atos of the great scheme of reclamation which was initiated by Mr Chator' does not convey a very clear meaning to rosi dents generally, as the terms are still hidden in the coming dospatch. That the Governor's recommendations as to terms are more likely to have been sp- proved than are these which proposed that lot-holders abontà pocket the pruöt. That in the meantime all action is delayed
