PRINCE'S VISIT.
SHANGHAI'S REPRESENTATION
HERE.
A recent telegram from Hongkong stated that Sir Edward Stubhe had given special permission for the British community of Shanghai to bej represented in the reception of the Prince of Wales. We take it that this is official, a decision of this sort being such as would naturally be expected from the Governor of Hong- kong, says the N. C. Daily News.. Whether the national societies of Shanghai have yet taken any stepa towards choosing a repre- sentative, we do not know. If they have, they will, we feel sure, forgive our offering a suggestion in a matter of so much general interest. If they have not, we venture to think no time abould be lost in doing so.
To the question, who should go, we think there can be but one answer, namely that one man should be chosen to represent the whole British community. This is not an. cccasion on which sectional interests should be considered. When His Royal, Highness goes to Canada he is wel- comed in the name of all Canadians, not of those, separately, of Scottish or English or Jewish or native Canadian descent. Similarly in Australis. Here in Shanghai, each nation making up the British community rightly guards its individuality for many purposes, charitable, festival and the like. But when it is a question of greeting the Heir Apparent we are all Britons alike, all subjects in common of him who, we trust, may in the fullness of time become our King..
The desirability of choosing a single representative is made the easier by the fact that there ia in Shanghai one man who is plainly and pre-eminently marked out to fill that position. It need hardly be said thất | we allude to Mr. E. C. Pearce. As the one freeman of the municipality of Shanghai, he occupies a position among his fellow residents which no other man has ever held. By his very great services during seven arduous years of Chairmanship of the Municipal Council, and these through all the anxieties of the Great War, he has won distinction rarely merited. And by his long residence his keen personal interest in o'l the activities of the Bettlement and his deserved popularity, he is one on whom all his fellow-countrymen would gladly com fer the tenour of representing them when the British of the Far East combine to welcome the Prince:
