In this' connection I lilay mention
that a somewhat enlightening .dIscus-
SiOn occured in the 'Legislature the ether
day respecting the new residence which
the Government are constructing for
the Lieutenant-Governor.This is a verit-
able castle. When comtneted hand ,fur-
ished it will cost the Provinee over a'
million dollars and will be such that
na occupant can alford to maintain it
On his salary. The result will be fillet
only independently wealthy Men can
occupy the position or the Provinca
must provide a much larger salary for
the Governor. The latter will most like-
ly be the final result. It is said that
Sir James Whitney was mainly respon-
sible for this folly. He got it into his
head that in cider to fittingly silo -w-
its appreciation of Royalty and British
connection, the rich and prominent Pro-
.vince of Ontario Ishould have a mag-
nificient caatle modeled after old world
inetitutions of that kind in which to
house Royalty's representative'. This
all the more surprising as Sir James
was himself a man of very plain tastee
and plain living and seemed to have
more or less a contempt for osteatati-
ous show. But it is said that all me -n, no
matter how level headed in other ref
spects, are apt to have a hobby and
get a hee in their bonnets at some
stage in their Xves. And, no doubt this
was the bee whieh -affected Sir Jamee

In supply for ,$200,000 to chrry on the
work in con-nection with the building.
Mr. Hearst asked Mr. Rowell, who was
objecting to the expenditure, what he
would (to with the building if nee did
not finish it? Mr. Rowell very Aptly
replied that he would scrap the whole
thing and conetruct another building
suitable to the requirements of the Pro-
vinee on a decent site. This advice, how-
ever, will not be accepted. The -building
will be continued ,and wili be finished
no matter what the cost. It wen
brought out in the discussion .that
garage for the housing 6f the Lieuten-
aet-Goveraor's auto had been construc-
t.' d at a cost of $10,000, the system
for the ventilating of the building hae
been in -stalled at a cost of $50,000, the
electric fixtures cost $13,000, the fur-
niture so far $30,000 and decoratione
$12,000. There are also three superbly
fitted up billiard rooms, one on each
flat end elevators all through the house
to prevent the necessity of climbing
stair. These are simply samples and
are given as examples of the expendi-
Lure 'throughout and the gorgeousnese
of the place.
