The decade saw a flowering of Australian literature. It saw tremendous social and economic changes. Partly as a result of these changes, these years saw the rise of a new force in Australian politics - the labour movement. In some colonies, this development was overshadowed by the consolidation of a colonial liberal tradition reaching its culmination in the Deakinite liberalism of the early years of the tlommdhwealth. Developments in Queensland differed from those in the southern colonies.

  • FITZROY WATERS from Sheep to Cattle and Coal
    158 FITZROY WATERS From Sheep to Cattle and Coal (Written by Archibald Archer and read by him before the Royal Historical Society of Queensland at Newstead House on 24 August 1972.) ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Your President, Mr. Norman Pixley, has honoured me with a request to read a paper to you tonight. If I talk too much about the Archers, it is because I have access to their letters and journals which have survived them. If I quote too much from their writings, it is because they can tell their own tales so much better than I. I have used the Archer letters, the Durundur Journal, Colin Archer's Journal, Thomas Archer's Recollections, Roy Connolly's Southern Saga. Finally, I want to thank my late cousin and brother-in-law Alister Archer for his work as the family historian. Were it not for his patient research into the writings of his father and uncles the preparation of this paper would have been far more difficult. INTRODUCTORY The old timer took a long pull at his glass before continu­ ing. "It's been a terrible dry spring, Archie. The sheep will pull through on the windfalls but the cattle look woeful." He tossed off what was left in his glass and set it back on the bar counter. I caught the barman's eye. Thirstily we watched him set up again the three frosty glasses with their trim white collars. We were chatting in the only pub in the tiny railway town halfway between Rockhampton and Longreach. Not much of a place, though the station people and the gem-diggers called it "town".

  • Highways Byways
    Highways AND Byways THE ORIGIN OF TOWNSVILLE STREET NAMES Compiled by John Mathew Townsville Library Service 1995 Revised edition 2008 Acknowledgements Australian War Memorial John Oxley Library Queensland Archives Lands Department James Cook University Library Family History Library Townsville City Council, Planning and Development Services Front Cover Photograph Queensland 1897. Flinders Street Townsville Local History Collection, Citilibraries Townsville Copyright Townsville Library Service 2008 ISBN 0 9578987 54 Page 2 Introduction How many visitors to our City have seen a street sign bearing their family name and wondered who the street was named after? How many students have come to the Library seeking the origin of their street or suburb name? We at the Townsville Library Service were not always able to find the answers and so the idea for Highways and Byways was born. Mr. John Mathew, local historian, retired Town Planner and long time Library supporter, was pressed into service to carry out the research. Since 1988 he has been steadily following leads, discarding red herrings and confirming how our streets got their names. Some remain a mystery and we would love to hear from anyone who has information to share. Where did your street get its name? Originally streets were named by the Council to honour a public figure. As the City grew, street names were and are proposed by developers, checked for duplication and approved by Department of Planning and Development Services. Many suburbs have a theme. For example the City and North Ward areas celebrate famous explorers. The streets of Hyde Park and part of Gulliver are named after London streets and English cities and counties.

  • Sir Samuel Griffith's
    THE THREE QUEENSLANDS — SIR SAMUEL GRIFFITH’S ‘GHOST’ DRAFT FOR A QUEENSLAND FEDERATION GREG TAYLOR* From 1890 to 1892, Sir Samuel Griffith, as Premier of Queensland, promoted a scheme under which Queensland would itself have been divided into a federation of initially three provinces — North, Central and South Queensland — and then two provinces, North and South Queensland. This startling idea would certainly have changed the map of Australia, probably permanently. At least at some points, the idea was expressed that each province would enter the Australian federation as a separate State and the Queensland federal government would simply be dissolved upon federation. The Bill to divide Queensland into a federation of two provinces passed the lower House of State Parliament but was defeated in the nominee Legislative Council. It then fell victim to the change of government consequent upon Griffith’s appointment as Chief Justice of Queensland, to the urgent problems presented by the economic depression, and even, from the conservative point of view, to the rise of labour in politics. Little has been known about this nearly successful plan until now. This article attempts to close that gap. * Fellow of the Royal Historical Society; Professor of Law, University of Adelaide; Honorary Professor of Law, Marburg University, Germany; Honorary Associate Professor, RMIT University, Melbourne. For various forms of assistance in completing the research for this article, the author wishes to thank: John McLaughlin AM; Professor Horst Lücke AO; Peter Sheppard; Tania Shipp of the Queensland Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy; Professor John Williams; and the Queensland Parliamentary Library and Research Service.

  • John Douglas Biography
    John Douglas 1828-1904: The Uncompromising Liberal A thesis submitted to the Department of Humanities Central Queensland University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Jeremy Martin Hodes (BA, H Dip Bibl, Hons B Bibl, Dip Cont Ed, M Litt) March 2006 2 Abstract Douglas was born in London in 1828 and migrated to New South Wales in 1851 where he represented both the Darling Downs and Camden districts in the New South Wales parliament before embarking on a lengthy parliamentary career in Queensland, one that culminated in the premiership from 1877 to 1879. He was subsequently appointed government resident for Thursday Island in 1885, a position he held until his death, nearly 20 years later, aged 76, in 1904. During this period he also served as special commissioner for the protectorate of British New Guinea, administering the territory prior to it being formally proclaimed a crown colony. Douglas’s involvement in Queensland public life was significant and encompassed the entire period from the colony’s formation in 1859 to the federation of the Australian colonies in 1901. In this respect, his career allows, through a study of his long, eventful and varied life, for this thesis to examine aspects of the development and progression of Queensland’s political system as a nascent yet robust, representative democracy, through most of the second half of the nineteenth century until the colony’s incorporation in the newly formed Commonwealth of Australia. This thesis argues that John Douglas was an uncompromising Liberal in an age of Liberalism, a principled politician in an era of pragmatic factionalism and shifting political allegiances.

  • Business and Politics in Queensland 1859-1895
    Business and Politics in Queensland 1859-1895 PROFESSOR H. J. HANHAM has recently drawn attention to the importance of the study of company investment in New Zealand during the last thirty years of the nineteenth century.1 The purpose of this paper is to give a brief account of company investment and examine the role played by business interests in politics during the same period in Queensland, where there were close parallels with the New Zealand situation. The subject is a particularly important one because of the close connection between business and politics that resulted from a situation where the main political issues and fields of business activity both concerned the utilisation and develop- ment of the land. The economic development of Queensland passed through several well-defined stages after its establishment as a separate colony in 1895. Until the late eighteen-sixties it was little more than a vast sheep run, although there were pockets of agricultural settlement in the south-east, around Brisbane, where production of sugar cane had begun, and Ipswich, where cotton-growing was stimulated by the worldwide shortage resulting from the American Civil War. There was little demand for loan funds in the colony at this time, since the pastoral industry was still organised on a basis of extensive use of leased land, and required capital for stock purchase only, while agricultural development was on a very small scale. Most of the pastoral and agricultural enterprises were conducted by individuals or partnerships who raised whatever capital they needed through personal loans. These were obtained by means of bank overdrafts, or by loans from banks, private financiers, or mortgage companies, raised through liens on wool and stock.
