BRISBANE, July 8.
The Governor opened the State Parliament yesterday. The legislative programme contains nothing startling.
The report of the inquiry into the Sur-veyor-general's department was presented to the Legislative Assembly. It stated that-disloyalty was rampant in the department. A flagrant breach of the regulations had enabled a coterie of officials to derive pecuniary benefit in addition to their salaries, thus securing for them advantages which were denied to official* who did not perform private work. On the recommendation of the Public Service Board the salaries of five officers are to be reduced for certain periods.
