Regarding the stamp ordinance, fanciful as it is, I am concerned and insufficient to justify the application of the Rating Ordinance without much further consideration. I am afraid Sir Henry Blake is too eager to anticipate the outcome with little sign as yet.
It certainly seems undeniable that Gambling Houses which were previously closed should now be opened again. I think the course taken by Blake, at the request of the respectable inhabitants, is sensible, and may be warranted. We seem to want a large police force in view of the disturbed state of traffic, which is a consequence of the prevalence of crime in the waters of the new territory, and it should also be considered.
We merely suggested that it might be advisable to exclude the Merchant Shipping Order. I would accept the Governor's conclusions on all points. As to the Rating Ordinance, although it is extended to the New Territories, rates will not be levied until the Governor has directed a valuation to be made of the district or a part of it.
Personally, I am very glad G. has agreed to licensing remarks. Gambling Houses in N.T. should be stopped.

On the questions of policing connected with the extension of these ordinances to the new territories, I agree with W. Johnston that we had to acquiesce in the Governor's views, for the reason clearly stated in the last part of the despatch.

We have lots of difficulties.
I am very doubtful about it.
I think the application is due and will count when difficulties are profound.
