  • HERITAGE WALK in MACKAY Duration - a Leisurely Hour-And-A-Half
    A HERITAGE WALK IN MACKAY Duration - a leisurely hour-and-a-half. his brochure has been designed to introduce you to Taspects of Mackay’s architectural heritage and to generate a greater pride and enjoyment of the city by its citizens and visitors. Mackay was named after John Mackay, whose pioneering spirit led him and his party from New England (NSW) to discover the valley of the Pioneer River, which John Mackay originally named for his father George. Within a few years, however, sugar became the dominant industry, thanks to the enterprising efforts of pioneers John Spiller, T. Henry Fitzgerald and John Ewen Davidson. More recently, the hinterland coal mining developments and the tourism industry have added to Mackay’s solid economic base. The prosperity and confidence of the city are reflected in the fine older buildings which are highlighted in this brochure. Many of our historic buildings were lost to devastating fires, to the notorious cyclone of January 1918 and sadly, to progress. We hope you enjoy your Heritage Tour of Mackay. * Listed with the National Trust of Queensland. Begin your tour in River Street opposite Carlyle Street. Paxton’s Building . H. Paxton & Co was a wholesale, retail, Wwine, spirits, and produce firm, as well 1 as a shipping agency, and was founded in 1876.

"' William Forgan Smith, Premier of Queensland, ex-AWU Organiser, 1932. Since the earliest European explorations of the northern part of the Australian continent people have seen great potential for economic expansion in the enormous region to be called Queensland with its lush tropical coastiine and drier inland with expansive and often fertile plains. Throughout the period of this thesis from 1890-1957 the Queensland economy relied upon pastoral pursuits or mineral exploitation, relied upon primary resources and industries as the mainstays of its economic stability and development. What type of people did such economic opportunities attract to this isolated and often inhospitable region of an isolated continent? What were their expectations? Where did they come from and where did they go? Most importantiy, how did these factors infiuence the society that emerged and the institutions both industrial and political that emanated from this society?

  • Abolition of the Legislative Council
    abolition of the legislative council Parliaments in the Westminster system are traditionally bicameral, meaning that they have both a Lower and Upper House. However, Queensland’s Parliament is comprised of only one House, the Legislative Assembly, following the abolition of its Upper House, the Legislative Council in 1922. Queensland is the only Australian state to have a unicameral parliamentary system, however, both the Northern Territory and the Australian Capital Territory Parliaments also have just one House. Other jurisdictions to have abolished their Upper Houses include New Zealand in 1950, Denmark in 1953, Sweden in 1970 and the American state of Nebraska in 1934. the firstqueensland parliament The first Houses of Parliament, the Military and Convict Barracks, now the site of the Queen Adelaide Building in Brisbane’s Queen Street Mall.

    AVOIDING TOO MUCH ORDER WITH TOO LITTLE LAW; REFLECTIONS ON THE QUEENSLAND EXPERIENCE by Frank Brennan S.J. AVOIDING TOO MUCH ORDER WITH TOO LITTLE LAW 1. The Queensland Street March Ban - A Government Experiment in Repression "As you know, in Queensland we have been relatively free of the public disorder which has in recent times reached considerable magnitude in certain other parts of the world. I do not think that it has always been appreciated just how fortunate we have been in this country that public order has been maintained without violent clashes between conflicting groups or between dissident groups and lawful authority." i So wrote the Premier of Queensland, Mr Johannes Bjelke-Petersen on 23 April 1969. Twelve years later the Governor of Queensland said:2 "We, in this country today, can be grateful that our predecessors, the colonisers of this land, brought with them and instituted the practices of English Law. For it is a dynamic system. "It can, and must, and will evolve to solve and meet the changes in social, industrial and international relationships taking place in the world today. "Law and Order' is one of today's important political issues. There is a danger, however that we try to achieve too much order with too little law, by bypassing the Processes we have inherited from those eight centuries of experience and hard fought battles against tyranny. The people of Queensland look to the law to defend their rights." Something had changed. In September 1977, the Premier had proclaimed: "The day of political street march is over.

  • UQ Coat of Arms
    UQ Heraldry Project The University of Queensland’s Coat of Arms: Historical Aspects Produced by Histori|co Research Services, Centre for Applied History & Heritage Studies, School of History, Philosophy, Religion & Classics Introduction The University of Queensland’s coat of arms is an instantly recognizable symbol of the University’s corporate identity. Granted to the University in 1912, it has undergone a number of cosmetic revisions and changes, but the motto and essential design have remained constant. The origins, significance and evolution of the coat of arms are not examined in detail in the published histories of The University of Queensland. This report was commissioned by the Fryer Library to address this oversight, and to thus document the heraldic history of the University using archival and unpublished sources. ‘The shorthand of history’ Heraldry is the practice of creating, managing and studying coats of arms, which are also referred to as ‘armorial bearings’ or simply ‘arms’.1 Heraldry in some form has been practiced since at least the twelfth century, though its exact origins remain obscure. The traditional argument is that the identity of individual knights was obscured by their full-body armour. Consequently, coats of arms were created and displayed in a prominent place (usually a shield or banner) to identify the knight. As the practice was taken up, rules and institutions governing the use of coats of arms evolved. Heralds, responsible for the organisation of tournaments, took on the role of experts in the identification of coats of arms. Important families and, by the fifteenth century, corporations, increasingly employed coats of arms, adding to the social value of armorial bearings.
