A Vigorous Representative.
Mr. Jackson, a leading member of the
Northwest Council, was recently en-
rtained at a banquet at Qu'Appelle by
his friends there. It is still contended,
ty some that the half-breeds and In-
dians of the Northwest had no grievt
maces and that they were not in any
ense justified in going into rebellion.,
It will be seen by the remarks made by
Mr. Jackson, that this is not his view of
the case, and he certainly has the very
best opportunities. of knowing, while he
cannot be rated as a- partisan witness.
Jackson strongly condemned the
action of Iiieutenant-Governor Dewdney
in not pressing upon the Government,
whose representative he is, the griev-
ances of which the people complained
and forcing thern to recognize and
remedy them. He further produced
resolution after resolution which had
been passed by the Northwest Council,
directing the attention of the Govern-
ment ta these grievance's, and they all
went unheeded until the rebellion broke
out. But we leave Mr. Jackson to
apeak for himself, and we are sorry
our space forbids our copying more of
Iiia vigorous address. He is evidently
an able Mall, who knows whereof he
aks and is not afraid to speak out.
e says :
"I say that if such grievances had ex-
isted among the white people of
country as amongst the half-breeds, a
much louder howl would have been
heard front them:- I do not hold that
the half-breeds were entitled to resort to
arras, they should have used constitu-
tional means only; but if you had had
the same grievances of rights ignored for
fifteen e -ears, as the Metis population
had in the Northwest Territories, I
question whether you would have borne
em half as meekty. [Hear, hear.)
Now, gentlemen, just let me here say
this :—Any remarks I may have to
make, in discussion or otherwise, as to
the want of action, to the Dominion
Geverument, I make as an independent
man. (Hear'hear.), I think the ma-
jority of you know. that I have all my
lifetime held with the Conservative
party. (Hear, hear.) And tonight,
while I may have occasion to condemn
the inaction of the Dominion Govern-
ment in dealing with this great and im-
portant question, I stand before you and
say I am as good a Conservative as ex -
fats in'the Conservative party. (Cheers.)
You know, gentlemen, there are certain
men in the west who would like very
much to say that I had recanted, jump-
ed the fence, gone over. There is just
as much sense in that as in a great deal
of the nonsense they talk at other times.
I hold this --that whether it be the Con-
aervative party, the Tory, the Grit, or
the Reform party, no one of them have
aright to make a platform which does
not meet the wants and requirements af
the people. (Cheers.) We do not be-
lieve in the Divine right of kings. We
won't acknowledge that for a moment.
the party must be for the people and
meet the requirements of the people or
a is not the people's party. (Hear,
hear.) I have had every opportunity Of
talking over political questions with
ministers. of the Government, and Ihave
said to them; -Unless you make your
platform—the platfotm of the Conserva-
tive party—broad; enough, liberal
enough, strong and deep enough to meet
the requiremente of the people of the
Northwest Territories, we cannot stand.
with you.' (Hear, hear.)"
Again, in referring to the treatment of
the Indians, after quoting the remarks
of Father Scallon, Mr, Jackson said:
"Now, here is the opinion of a man
who, if anything, is in favor of the In-
dian officers, himself an employe of the
Indian Department. He says that the
:11dians had cause for rising; that they
determined to rise at the very first op-
portunity. It was not the half-breeds
;that urged them; but they rose in re-
bellion because they, had not been prop-
erly treated by the 'Government agents,
amcl the treaty obligationbad not been
.faithfuily carried out. That has, been
contention all along. and the facts
11 bear out the theory. The Indians
were a dissatisfied connnunity, and in
the half-breed rising they saw the op-
portunity of striking at the Government,
the author of all the mischief done
them. Now, I charge that at Indian
Head, in the winter of 1883, several of
the Indians died of starvation. (Cries
of "Shame.") Well, the Lieutenant -
Governor, in his reply to me, refeiredto
a report. I said I could prove it by an
officer of the Indian Department. You
limow I have been taken to task becitese
iit this matter I used private conversa-
tion in a public manner. Now, shall I
tell you what that private conversation
wee? The statement was made by Dr.
Edwards before myself and six others,
and there are, I believe, twenty men in
this andience who have heard the thing
front Dr. Edwards himself. * * Mr.
Dewdney said there was so much pro-
visions at Indian Head. I know they
were there; but his fiat had gone forth
not to feed them so much; that Pi -a. -
Pot wa.s a bad piece of muslin, and that
they must cut clown the rations. And
now, instead of five dying, it is a mat-
ter of my own knowledge—a matter I
can prove on oath—that, instead of five
dying there, ten per cent. of • all the In-
dians on the Indian Head reserve died
_ threugh starvation in six months (that
fa, 20 per cent. per annum); and I have
a from no less high authority than a
man who is as well qualified to tell the
truth as Dr. Edwards or Mr. Dewdney,
that Indians on that reserve pla.ced the
dead bodies around in trees until it re-
eembled crows' nests in a rookery, and I
am advised and believe that Mr. Dewd-
ney had a private report of the true
state of affairs; and more, he was told
that if that state of things continued,
for humanity's sake it shoukl be made
known to the Government. That was
the stone of the wards of the Govern-
ment whom we pledge ourselves to look
after, for the support ofiwhom the pub -
lib funds had been devoted (some
11.
$1, ,000 had been voted to support
thein) and I say that he who promised
to sn port and protect and look after
these -people, and who allowed them to
starve, as a dog would not be allowed to
starve, ought tobe condemne both by
the people of this country an
ada. (Loud cheers.) When i

people were allowed to die of

. You show that such ponduct is
able in the eyes of the school, and
he sees that his deeds are con-
demned by the school, he will soon
cease' to practice them. If there is a
sentiment against the teacher among a
large number in the school, this pupil
becomes the teacher's greatest annoy-
ance. He will go just as far its he can,
even if he is punished for it, because
then he receives the greater applause
from his fellow -scholars, and this causes
him to bear the punishment gladly. The

ment in school, an everywhere else, is a
great force.
Two evils we have noticed in Canadi-
an families. There is a considerable
though probably decreasingnumber of
parents who, following English training
of traditions are accustomed to give the
boys of the family precedence over the
girls on all occasions. The bay is treat-
ed as the future lord of the household,
whose whims are to be consulted on all
occasions. In other and still more num-
erous families the order is Precisely re --
versed. The boys are the inferiors and
are taught to wait upon thir Sisters, to
defer to their wishes and to yield to
them the best of everything. Both
practices are injurious, especially to the
favored sex. The arrogance and domi-
neering spirit of many a disagreeable
man,' and the intense selfishness of many
an exacting woman, may be traced
to these respective faults in home train-
ing. .

. It lt to be hoped the low price of sugar
will not discourage, the producers of
sorghum sugar and syrup. Because the
price tcd a commodity is temporarily de-
pressed is no reason why those already
having the machinery and necessary
buildings for manufacture should allow
such to get into disrepair. , The writer
s lived to see crude processes elabor-
ated end the manufacture simplified, so
tie farmer can now produce nice syrup

hich requires expensive fixtures and

jjiice into sugar. With early amber or
other varieties the fernier who has the

regions where_ transportation charges

;
Mr. Kenny, of Minnesota, well known
r his production of sorghum sugar and
rup, is quoted as placing the average
ield 'of dry sugar per gallon of syrup at
out four pounds. Others claim that a
allon of good heavy syrup will yield
om five to seven pounds of sugar, with
-t--after the sugar is ejetracted—a valu-
ble syrup left. With eane not over two
-ni
es from the mill t is estimated the
s rup will: not cost ctirer 20 cents per
allon, including production and all ex-
pense and an acre well cultivated will
bre 840 pounds of sugar and about 85
allons of syrup. . !
The production itf real sugar will de-
pend not only on the season but on the
nature of the soil as well. Stronghumus
or muck soils are not adapted to the pro-
duction of sugar and the syrup will
dark. A good wheat soil or a good fruit
soil will be indicated; in successful sor-
ghum culture, and if gaudy so much the

ettne
It would not be good advice in view of
the present corn prices to favor the buy-
ing of machinery for the production of
sugar, but for those having the machin-
ery, especially on soils that have proved
themselves adapted to the production of
sugar, it would hardly be policy to suffer
the machinery to go t� waste. A parallel
ease is the depression' of the wool indus-
try. Many sheep -growers have gone out
of the business and sold their flocks at
sacrifice or kilted the flocks for the
esh and pelts. Yet those who have
ushed out of sheep because the price of
ool is low may get the experience of
ction and reaction—the action of selling
ut low and the reaction of buying in
high.—Chicago Tribline.

THE TORONT
The spruce is ,a hardworking, honest
tree. It may not possess ; ;the grandeur
of the Pine, nor the soaringicrown of the
hemlock ; but the gum willoritchew caou-
chouc, and is deservedly popular in Bos-
ton, female colleges, and other select
lodalities. The spruce is Meeting last of
all the doom of its evergreen fellows.
In Maine- and New HamPshire and in
the Canadian Provinces, the axe of the
logger is eating its way itteadily and
without mercy into the Iheart of the
spruce country, and too Soon will the
place thereof know it no more. Thus
went the pine, though, when the latter
reigned, the spruce grew en unharmed,
for loggers deemed it .an lignoble tree,
good enough to raise cheiting gum, but
unworthy,of further, usage. So they
went for the pine alone, and hewed it
down, as if the world stood watching
until each. lake and stream grew weary
with the burden of murdered trees. If
Catarrh—a New Treatment.
Perhaps the most extraordinary success that
has been achieved in modern medicine has been
attained by the Dixon Treatment for Catarrh.
Out of 2,000 patients treated during the past six
months fully ninety per cent, have been cured
of this stubborn malaarly; This is none the less
startling when it is remembered that no five per
cent of patients presenting themselves to the
regular practitioner are benefitted, while tbe
patent medicines and other advertised cures
never record a cure at all. Starting with the
claim now generally believed by the most scien-
tific men that the disease is due to the presence
of living- parasites in the tisane, Mr. Dixon at
once adapted his cure tO 'their extermination—
ehis accomplished, he clai us the Catarrh is prac-
tically cured, and the peii»anencY is unquestion-
td, as cures effected by h m four years ago are
cures still. No one else ias ever attempted to
cure Catarrh in this nianner, and no other treat.
ment has ever cured Catarrh. The application
'of the remedy is simple, and can' be done at
home, and the present season ef the year is the
most favorable for a speedy and permanent cure,
the majority of cases being ,cured at one treat-
ment. Sufferers should correspond with Messrs.
