The enlightened municipal spirit which is so marked a feature of life in England and Amer- ica has not yet found an echo in the colony. Oar THE NEW DEMOCRACY. 321 municipal institutions are dominated by the nar- rowest spirit of parochialism. Street lighting, street traction and water supply are left for the most part to private enterprise in a country where the Railway, Postal, and Telegraph services are na- tionalised, and where the government undertakes even the insurance of life and the adm...inistration of property. Sanitation is left to the whim of mu- nicipal caprice ; street architecture and even fire-pre- vention are matters frequently left to take care of themselves ; and the most important duty undertaken by Borough Councils in New Zealand seems to be the formation of exceedingly bad roads.
The present Government has recently passed an Act enabling local bodies to levy rates on unim- proved values at the option of the majority of the ratepayers in the district ; but the scope of the meas- ure is neither understood nor appreciated.
