  • Our Complete History
    Cairns Chamber of Commerce 100 Years of History Pre 1909 – setting the scene The decision to create a remote community on the banks of untamed Trinity Bay, and the arrival of several hundred intrepid settlers in 1876, were the genesis of the City of Cairns. Facing these pioneering men, women and children as they sailed into sight of land ‐ on board the Leichhardt, Victoria and Porpoise – was an overwhelming contradiction of dense mangrove swamps, mudflats and sand dunes set against a spectacular blue‐green mountain backdrop. Before them were timber shanties, tents, and make‐shift jetties niched into small clearings around the water’s edge. Watching from a distance were members of the local indigenous clans who had occupied this land for over 50,000 years. These clans – Yirranydji and Yidinji – settled into a defensive and uneasy existence with the new arrivals. Government hydrographic and survey vessels and fishermen anchored in Trinity Inlet during the decade or two before the Far North’s gold rush began. Hardy prospectors chasing gold on the Palmer River had begun arriving in 1873. Primitive infrastructure was erected on the foreshore to service the promising goldfields to the wild north, and newly discovered tin deposits around Herberton and Irvinebank in the largely unexplored hinterland. James Venture Mulligan’s announcement in Cooktown in early 1876 that alluvial gold had been discovered, led to a rush of nearly 3000 miners to Hodgkinson goldfield. His accurate warning that the find would not pay out went unheeded by miners and the government of the day, all in the grip of gold fever.

  • The Premiers of Queensland
    87 THE PREMIERS OF QUEENSLAND The 1978 Clem Lack Oration of the Royal Historical Society of Queensland by DR. DENIS MURPHY Senior Lecturer in History, University of Queensland Read at Newstead Resource Centre, Newstead House, Brisbane, on Thursday 22 fune 1978 at 8.00 p.m. The late Clem Lack was a notable officer of the Royal Histori­ cal Society of Queensland. His career as a journalist covering almost 30 years of Queensland history was also notable. Tonight in the 1978 Clem Lack Oration, I shall be talking about the Premiers of Queensland. Clem Lack began his career as a journalist on the Gympie Times in 1918 when the great T. J. Ryan was at the height of his political career in Queensland. Clem Lack then moved to Brisbane in 1920 when another of the major Queensland political figures, E. G. Theodore was fighting his first election as Premier. It was to be Clem Lack's fortune to report for The Courier-Mail and then the Telegraph on the follow­ ing Premiers: William Gillies, William McCormack, Arthur Moore and William Forgan Smith. After a four-year break in Melbourne he returned to Brisbane to work directly for three Premiers: E. M. Hanlon, Vincent Gair and Frank Nicklin in the State Public Relations Bureau. My lecture tonight is about 31 Premiers.' Had 1 chosen to deal with each one separately that would have meant about a minute and a half to two minutes per Premier. That would hardly be justice for even the least competent. I have therefore chosen to deal with them in broad categories; to trace the development of the title "Premier"; to analyse the constitutional relationship between the Governor and the Premier; to note that these, the 31 leaders of the State, have not been above political scandal; and finally to provide some assessment of those who are likely to be remembered in Queensland or Australian history.

  • 3 A067 0103678A a Labor, Politics and Unemployment
    THE2353 3 A067 0103678A A LABOR, POLITICS AND UNEMPLOYMENT: QUEENSLAND DURING TIIE GREAT DEPRESSION BRIAN J COSTAR BA Submitted in fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History, University of Queensland, January I98I. ABSTRACT This thesis is a study of the impact of the economic depression of the 1930s on the State of Queensland. It is primarily concerned with the politics of the period but economic and social factors are not ignored. As a political study, the thesis is concerned with the behaviour of Governments, political parties and interest groups. The formulation of public policies directed towards the alleviation of unemployment are also investigated. The central focus of the thesis is the Queensland Labor movement, which is defined broadly to include those individuals and groups that claimed to belong to a political/industrial movement that was concerned to advance and defend the interests of employed and tinemployed workers. The central arguments of the thesis are: that the medium and longterm effects of the depression have been exaggerated; and that, in certain respects, Queensland's response to the depression was different from that in some other States. These arguments are explained and expanded in the Introduction. The remainder of the thesis is divided into two sections. Section One includes Chapters One to Seven and deals mainly with general political developments. Chapter One seeks to explain why Queensland appears to have been less affected by the economic collapse than the other States. Attention is drawn to the fact that the Queensland economy experienced a severe, locally-induced recession in the late 1920s that was unrelated to the world-wide depression that occurred after 1929.

  • Red Ted) Theodore 1884-1950
    361 E.G. (Red Ted) Theodore 1884-1950 by Ross Fitzgerald The Clem Lack Oration: Presented to a meeting of the Society, 24 March 1994 Edward Granville Theodore was dying. Few in Australian public life have commanded the worlds of business and politics with equal authority. Ted Theodore had walked like a giant through the three worlds of business, politics and labour. Writing in 1931, Charles Bernays, the clerk of the Queensland Parliament and chronicler of the first seventy years of Queensland political history, described Theodore as, 'Clever: far-seeing: secretive: popular while in power; said to be a rich man'.' It was a perceptive summation of the paradox of ability, mystery, power and plenitude in a man who within thirty years went from being a mine worker to a mine owner. Later, historian Geoffrey Bolton described 'Red Ted' Theodore as 'the closest that Australia has come to producing the Great Gatsby'.^ A reticent nature, a talent for accumulating wealth and a capacity to deal with powerful labour, business, and political figures combined to crete the impression, as Manning Clark put it, that Ted had 'always been around the fringes of "tainted money" '.^ It had not always been that way. Growing up during the 1890s' depression, there was nothing tainted about home — just piety, politics and poverty. The moderately talented, bookish boy of twelve left school to get jobs to help the family survive. He had felt the injustice of it all the more because his father, Basil, a proud man and essentially bourgeois at heart, had for reasons partly economic, partly adventurous, renounced his upper class Romanian background for ten hectares of unproductive dirt at Aldgate, on the outskirts of Adelaide.

Chapter 4 Utopia Lost: the AWU and the Labor Party, 1920-1929. '... the Government has deliberately forfeited its right to represent the working class movement. That is our opinion.' The Worker. 1927. With T J Ryan's departure to federal politics the way was now clear for the AWU to impose upon the Queensland labour movement and the PLP the AWU's social, political and industrial ideology even more than before. Ryan possessed the political and personal attributes to appease most sides of the labour movement. His immediate 141 successors, particularly the AWU's Ted Theodore and 'Big Bill' McCormack, were uncompromising in their demands for loyalty and ruthless in their pursuit of perceived dissenters from the AWU/PLP line. With a seemingly impotent Opposition, the challenges that would arise for the ruling AWU clique would necessarily emanate from within the labour movement itself and the boardrooms of capitalist organisations which had become alarmed by the ineptitude of their representatives in the Houses of Parliament.

  • Three Queensland Premiers and the Mungana Scandal
    THREE QUEENSLAND PREMIERS AND THE MUNGANA SCANDAL DAVID E MOORE 2015 ABSTRACT This thesis is an analysis of the unique role that the Chillagoe-Mungana area played in the evolution of North Queensland’s economy and in the state’s politics, extending over four decades. In particular, it impacted upon the careers of three Queensland Premiers, who led the state between 1919 and 1932: Edward Theodore, William McCormack and Arthur Moore, with Theodore being by far the most prominent. The area is now often known for its association with what became known as the “Mungana Scandal”, in which the three Premiers played very different roles. The story has generally been presented and perceived as primarily a political one, with the main focus on Theodore. This has been a mistake as the key person to follow is McCormack (his close friend) and the nature of their relationship.
