It is accessory that these bye- should he passed as early as possible, but we think the Unofficial Members were quito justibed in asking for time to considor the new regula. tions, which are of great importance to householders and property owners alike. We boliera we are correct in saying that the by-laws were first considered by the Sanitary Board in Ostuber, 1996, or, exact- fy seven months ago. They were never published, either in the Government Gazeito or in any of the local newspapers, and as the Unofficial Members of the Legislative Council were probably unaware of the nature and scope of the bye-laws, thera was nothing unreasonable in the request for delay to digest and consider the full force of the Sanitary Board's proposals.

Only a cursory perusal of the bye-laws is necessary to reveni defects. Doubtless the oficinis responsible for the framing of these bye-laws are desirous of safeguarding the health of the Colony. We are willing to give them the fullest credit at any rate; and after the Colony's experience of the. plague epidemic of 1894 and the revels Itions of filth and overcrowding, we are prepared to support the Government in en- forcing whatever regulations may be ox- pected, humanly speaking, to prevent such
