on that was finally arrived at. The other ways for the Governor, after having obtained, tho muction" of the Coun cil to spond musey in 'receiving' the -- royal party, to nominate a select com- mittee to catzy out the arrangements. This was the course practically adopted, and, al. though it does not provide forthe cooperation of the public ab ostentatiously as the other method, it is certainly the most expeditious way of doing business. Had thero bean a year to make arrangements the Jubileo ex- periments might have been repeated, but with only a few weeks i
to come and go on it would have been risky to leave such a mattor to the mercy of public meetings. Aud, to tell the honest truth, there is Little onthusiasm in the community about the visit of the Duke and Duchess of Connaught. The most of the residents are docbtless, like Me Humphreys, willing to show their Loyalty when the occasion demands it, but the fact of a member of the royal family pissing through Tungkong on his way to England scarcely calls for an offusive display Our neighbours in Singapore are to coulent themselves with a recoption at Govesoment House, while our compatriots at Colombo are to oxhaust their fas ings by ropsiring a landing stee, which it is feared the Dake

It was meet therefore that we should make some sort of display. As we have said, the sub-committee appointed was doing all that might be reasonably expected of them. The principles on which they had to work were laid down at the meeting of the general committeo, a report of which, appeared in the Okina Mail the same oven. ing, and before finally settling on the pro- gramme, the sub-committee had the good sense to submit it by circular to all the members of the very representative expand- ed committee, with a request for suggestione, And-pace Me Franois-this was really the most expeditious way of going about the business.
