“invidious notice.” On the same occasion Mr. Sounochy, the Colonial Treasurer, stated that Chinese had complained to him about the projects; and Mr. O'Malley the Attorney General also said,
“It appears to me that the principle that the Chinese and European subjects of the Queen should be treated without distinction is one which it would ill become this Government to abandon by associating itself, as it would by continuing the grant, with the only body administering public monies in the Colony which continues this distinction.
I have no doubt Her Majesty's Government will agree with the Legislative Council, and will not be disposed to hand over $1200 of the ratepayers' money to three or four irresponsible gentlemen who have been less prominent in their antagonism to the native Community, for it is a significant fact that the only supporters on the City Hall Committee in this matter are the same persons who got up a public meeting about two years ago which led to an address of complaint from the Chinese Community to the Queen.
