The l'hristwas x1111 New Year holldayM are usually a dull tiwe pol- Itically, arab this year wait no excep- tion to the rule. Beyond the Chrlat- maa box to C. W. Nichol, who' was appointed iAeutenent-Governor of Bri- tish Columbia, and the lame of the writ for the Went Teterboro by-election, there las been little to enliven things, but from this tlrne on there should be plenty of activity. At the Parliament buildings the workmen are rushing things to try and have everything In order for the opening. The Commons and Senate chambers will be ready this year, the finishing touche' having been put on them during the recess. and the main part of the interior work of the new building la done, but there will be work on the exterior, and some inter- ior dungen, for a couple of seastfH before everything la complete. The famous Hall of Fame last session war a Iwaverboard passage through the building. This year It is much fur- ther advanced, but there will be no yelling on it. The lurndsome stone pillars along the wall are dote, but the architects had not time to get the telling on, on have simply laid the floor, and another aesaion must come before the work there will be complete. The handsome Peace Tgwer, the cor- nerstone of whk•h was laid by the Prince of Wales daring Ilia visit here, has been built up to the height of the /first story and then a temporary roof put on It. There will be no more work on that for another year. Ier•auae It 1s Intended to line the Interior of the second chamber of the tower with stone from France and Flanders. May Cast Ten Millleos. The building itself scams likely to eoet nearly double what had been es- timated. Instead of five mill►on dol- lars the total outlay shows egnis of being in the neighborhood of ten mil- lions. for building costa have been going up ever aince the work started and the Government tears the burden of the rising coats. Another factor In the in- creaser' cores la that there have been many changes made in the Mdlding and a lot of build- ing up and tearing down. The aeupaney of the building for last MO.

And of course, when the members got into the building they Haw• some changes neeestery, and many were made.

The new building is a magnificent place, but there are wavy r•spe•te in which the cost to the piddle could be reduced. When an e4e•tiun campaign gets under way there will, in all probability, be charges from the opposition of ex- travagance In regard to the new build- ing, as several members are indicating this already.

On that report It to expected that this year's budget wilt be barged, for the 1 Government could not afford any long- er to hold fire on the tar- iff revision which has been prom- ised since the days when Sir Thomas White was Finance Minister.
