some unruly dissentients; but these are superciliously -régarded as iconoclasts, rabid, advocates of the universal rights of man, opponents of the one law for the rich and another for the poor theory and practice, believers in the equal claims of all tax-payers to the recognised privileges of citizenship-- and are accordingly marked 'dangerous' and ruthlessly stamped out of existence whenever a favorable chance occurs, But if it is the case, as we contend, that public opinion has no tangible existence-outside occasional independent press utterances, It must necessarily follow that local Insthutions such as the Legislative Council and the Sanitary Board, which are supposed to reflect that opinion, are very inadequate representatives of the citizens and the colony's interests. And that is the precise impression we wish to convey to our readers. The official case in matters political represent the Government alone; the public welfare, or what is supposed to be the public weltars, is no doubt the goal to be reached, but apart from all personal ideas the officials must reach that goal in exact accordance with their instructions, They are allowed no
