It is to be hoped that the Governor will pause and consider before he avalls himself of the aid of the Official Phalanx to give such enormous powers to the officers of the Board-powers' 'which are at orce unique, despotic and unnecessary, The bye-laws require careful revision, considerable modification, and in some parts (notably where the word street is used in clause 5) very clear definition, for the various provisions as at present worded would open the door wide for abuses of the gravest description, and they would confer powers on a class of men who cannot, we think, be considered Gt either by education, experience or training to exercise requisite discretionary powers.
