Product Information
Excerpt from The Story of the London County Council: A Series of Articles by the Times Special Correspondent The London County Council has just completed 18 years of existence. It came into the world on January 17, 1889, when the first elections took place. Along with the other county councils it was brought into being by the Local Government Act, of 1888, which was the work of a Conservative Government, and more particularly of the late Lord Ritchie, who as Mr. Ritchie was in charge of the measure. When emphasis is laid upon the democratic mission of the London County Council and on its achievements for the benefit of London its origin should not be forgotten. The orators of the Progressive party, who at every possible opportunity dilate with so much eloquence and satisfaction upon their own record, might remember to whom the owe their municipal existence; but somehow they never do, unless it be to complain of the inadequate powers entrusted to them. Upon that head there will be something to say presently; but mean-time, if these things are to be thrown, as Progressives insist, into the scales of party politics, they may be reminded that Radical Governments have been in power since the London County Council was created by Conservatives, yet the only large extension of power it has received was bestowed by the same party, which has been heartily abused for its pains. The Act of 1888 was received with no popular enthusiasm. It is an exceedingly long and complicated measure, which no one, except Mr. Ritchie himself, took the trouble to master at the time. Lord Rosebery, when he stood for election under it, frankly confessed that he had not; and it is more than probable that to this day nobody has ever mastered it. Nevertheless it has been on the whole decidedly and even markedly successful. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
