NOW DIDION are TREATED.
At a banquet delivered n his honor
by his conetituente, Mr. Jackson, of
Qtt'Appelle ft Oetaher of the Northwest
and a life-loug Conservative,
spoke on the, late rebellion and its mut-
ee. In the. course of his speech he
said I--;
The Indian Commissioner (ar. Reed)
has taken every opportunityttoul he
took en opportunity whits recent speech
at the Council Board—of twitting the
people of Fort Qu'Appelle with encour-
aging the File 11111 Indians to give the
Government trouble, or to ause -a -dip
'turiotuce to. keep the soldiers here. ("No
• no," anct"Irs .ftilse.") You who knew
the danger. there was o an Indian up-
risingthroughout the country; who
knew the means that bad to be use by
men'of influence to keep . the Indians
from rising,know how dastardly false• .
eoch an assertion is, (Hear, .hear, - and:
Cheers.) Nothing of the kind was ever
done. He became very anxious about
the File Hill Indians. What , has he
donewitla them because of their turbu-
lency, because they showed a disposition
perhaps, to rise up and join the Indians
of the North in gghting I He has te-
duced them atthe present time to that

' had not the necessaries of life. (Cries •of
"Shaine !") . I tell you what knew to
be a fact. The Iodians on. the' File
Hill reserve believe that if one of their
number fall sick there is nouse in try-
ing to 'make bim get well, they have not
sufficient nourishing food and •
THEY MUST LET HIM DIE.
The man I Spealc of came down to the
fort the other day absolutely in rags,
• with his twrisq.aaws and said 'to a man
. in Fort Qu'Appelle do mot mention
his name now, but at the proper time, if
„necessary, I can produce this, man) :-

that he knew the Indians of. the North,
were discontented. In August last,
when Big Bear had a. pow -wow at 'Du&
Lake, he said he would make the peoples
. of Canada tgaffer thaologhthe. Settlers Of
this country, and make the settlers suffer
through their children. What did that
:• mean ? That they would commence a.
• war Of extermination ;' that they would •

of the Indian... And .why? .Because
