This pointed reference, as we have said, was quite sufficient to have blown up the magazine in the Board-room, even had nothing else been forthcoming. But the sulema call of the Colonial Secretary (on behalf of the Governor) upon the Board to express an opinion upon the very thing which the Government had thien and there minuted that the Board must in every case refer to the Public Works Department, was too much for the po- pular or representative members. It is difficult to see what else the Board could bave done than what it did, viz., call upon the Government to ask what they meant, and to state more definitely upon what part of the drainage system the Board was expected to express its opinion. In former days some colour bad been given to the suspicion that ex- pressions of opinion asked for by the Government from the Board were solicited in order to place the Board in a ridiculous position, and perhaps relière the Government at the same time of certain amount of responsibility.
