Local Government History and Localism John Cookson Local Government History and ‘centralisation thesis’ has long warped New Zealanders’ A understanding of the growth and development of the New Zealand state. ‘Unbridled power’, to use Geoffrey Palmer’s Localism phrase, is accepted as the end chapter of a process that began with the abolition of the provincial governments that set Abstract the country on a course of unmitigated The received view of state development in New Zealand is that the centralism (Palmer, 1987). New Zealand in 1876, said Michael Bassett, ‘abandoned abolition of the ‘provincial system’ in 1876 set in motion the inexorable the possibility of a decentralised structure’ rise of centralised authority. The counter thesis presented in this – perhaps an unsurprising judgement article argues that until about 1940 central politicians, irrespective from one who as minister presided over a sweeping reorganisation of local of party, were consistently engaged in empowering rather than government (Bassett, 1998, p.66). In this diminishing local government. There was ultimate respect for the history of the rise and rise of the central idea of local self-government; therefore, in colonial society, of local state, Vogel, Seddon and the Liberals, and the first Labour government stand as the control of local development.

He worked as a contractor and, in 1896, in Wellington, married Lizzie Coker. The bride, 70, claimed to be 51 while the groom, 40, gave his age as 47. Lizzie had emigrated on the Regina in 1859 with her cousin, James Gapes (later Mayor of Christchurch) and his family and had already been twice-wed. Indeed, the property she had inherited from her first husband, George Allen, had enabled her second spouse, John Etherden Coker, to build the Manchester Street hotel which bears his name. Lizzie and Frank were able to make trips to England and to Canada where there dwelt Lizzie’s brother, once a member of the Horse Guards. Lizzie died in 1910 and, two years later, Hurd married again. He and his wife lived at 630 Barbadoes Street. Hurd was a big man who, in old age he had a white moustache, cap and walking stick. He died, at 85, on 1 April 1942.

  • Bathgate Was Born on 10 August 1809 at Edinburgh, Scotland, the Son of Frances Hamilton Macdowall and Her Husband, Alexander Bathgate
    John Bathgate was born on 10 August 1809 at Edinburgh, Scotland, the son of Frances Hamilton Macdowall and her husband, Alexander Bathgate. His father had been a skinner, but rose to become a teacher in the day school at Peebles. Because John's mother had died when he was five, he was raised by his father and his second wife, Janet Campbell. After education at the Royal High School and the University of Edinburgh, Bathgate joined his father at Peebles as the assistant teacher. He then taught himself land surveying, worked in an estate office and, after a token apprenticeship and footing the bill for a sumptuous supper for his examiners, was admitted as a writer (solicitor) in 1835. Over the next 28 years Bathgate took every opportunity that came his way. From his first professional task – administering a poor fund – he never declined a post, no matter how onerous the duties or how poor the remuneration. Alongside such roles as secretary of the Peeblesshire Prison Board, procurator fiscal and town clerk, he founded a newspaper, the Peeblesshire Monthly Advertiser and Tweedshire Journal, pioneered a private railroad from Edinburgh to Peebles, founded the Peeblesshire Savings Investment Society, and managed the Peebles branch of the Union Bank of Scotland. Bathgate conducted his diverse affairs to the detriment of his health and the neglect of his family. On 6 April 1842 he had married Anne Cairns Anderson at Edinburgh; they had two daughters and two sons before Anne Bathgate died in 1851 shortly after the premature birth of a son, who survived only briefly.

They both invested in mines in the Te Aroha district, Whitaker being particularly active in promoting the interests of the mining industry. But he was also seen as manipulating the share market to benefit himself and as assisting Josiah Clifton Firth’s ‘clique’ to control the field, meaning that for many residents some of his actions were deeply unpopular. Both men acquired and traded in land both within and outside the settlements, and developed their Wairakau estate, all profitably. Whitaker also established the Te Aroha News, and in a variety of ways was a leading member of the community. As a member of the county council he tried to help the district, but once again was seen as working too closely with Firth for their mutual benefit. Stafford also tried to assist local development. Both men were prominent socially, notably in horse races and various sports. Whitaker in particular was renowned for his lively personality, personal charm, and elegant attire, but unusually did not marry nor, apparently, flirt with the opposite sex, which may or may not be significant.

  • Rationing’ in New Zealand 1968-C.1980
    The “Ugly Sister of Welfare” The idea of health care ‘rationing’ in New Zealand 1968-c.1980 Deborah Salter Submitted for the Degree of MA in History Victoria University of Wellington November 2011 Abstract This thesis explores the influence of healthcare ‘rationing’ in New Zealand from 1968 to c.1980. Rationing is a term and concept drawn from health economics and the history of the idea will be traced as well as its influence. The influence of rationing will primarily be explored through case studies: the supply of specialist staff to New Zealand’s public hospitals, the building of hospitals (and specialist units in particular) and the supply of medical technology. This era has been selected for historical examination because of the limited attention paid to it in studies of the health service, and more generally, welfare histories of New Zealand. Often in these studies the 1970s is overshadowed by the period health of reform in the 1980s and 1990s.

  • Sir Harry Atkinson and the Conservative Faction in New Zealand Politics, 1879-1890
    Sir Harry Atkinson and the Conservative Faction in New Zealand Politics, 1879-1890 INTERPRETATIONS of Sir Harry Atkinson's role in New Zealand political history have undergone considerable revision since they were first attempted by the nineteenth century historians, W. Gis- borne, A. Saunders and W. P. Reeves. Yet Atkinson remains to us what he was to them, a decidedly enigmatic figure. Gisborne recon- ciled the contradictions of Atkinson's behaviour by explaining that Atkinson's primary political principle was the desire for power.1 Saunders was moved by his hatred of Atkinson to add that Atkinson was a failed farmer who clung to power for the sake of profit.2 But neither Gisborne nor Saunders had an effect on subsequent writers equal to that of Reeves. Reeves was writing the first radical history of New Zealand and to him Atkinson's role was plain: he was the Conservative Premier who had delayed the Liberals' occupation of the Treasury benches. In order to make the revolutionary significance of the change of power in 1890 quite clear, Reeves described Atkin- son, along with Sir Frederick Whitaker and Sir John Hall, as leaders of a New Zealand Conservative party which had held power, with minor interruptions, since 1879. Reeves qualified his picture by pointing out that Atkinson held 'quasi-socialistic views' and was one of 'the more broadminded of the oligarchs'.3 Some twentieth century historians have enlarged upon this, pointing out that Atkinson took radical stands on the issues of female suffrage and social security, and that except on financial ques- tions, he cannot properly be labelled a conservative.4 A small minority 1 W.

  • The New Zealand Great Strike and Trans-Tasman Biography
    Personalizing Class Conflict Across the Tasman: the New Zealand Great Strike and Trans-Tasman Biography MELANIE NOLAN H is Harry Holland’s nibs fighting Billy Hughes, Harry lashes “Labor” fibs in the red “Reviews!” Holland’s pen is like a lance tipped with boiling gall! He is making Billy’s chance very black and small! With determination, grim, Holland’s fought for years! Prison cannot silence him, nor can bribes or fears. Josiah Cocking on Harry Holland and Billy Hughes, 1910.1 Abstract This is a revisionist account of the New Zealand 1913 Great Strike, placing it in a trans-Tasman framework rather than, as is more usual, local and international contexts. It uses the bitter relationship between Harry Holland and Billy Hughes to personalize and dramatize the wider dynamic between the New Zealand and Australian labour movements around 1913. It contests the view that that the Tasman world was dying or that New Zealanders’ resented ‘Australian intervention’ in the strike. Affective bonds which did not always match trading partnerships indicate the closeness of New Zealand and Australia peoples as indicated by a range of measures such as population exchange, the exchange of parcels in the mail and the strong push for trans- Tasman union and socialist federation. The effect of the 1913 Great Strike followed closely by the war was, however, to destroy the dream of a trans- Tasman ‘One Big Union’. Introduction: Trans-Tasman Revisionism The 1913 Great Strike was one of the most turbulent and violent industrial disputes in New Zealand’s history: there were extraordinary scenes on Wellington’s streets with the military facing strikers and their supporters with naked bayonets and machine guns.
