Riel Rebellion.

OTTAWA, March 23.-It is well known
that the disturbances in the Northwest are
much more serious than Sir John Macdonald
is willing to acknowledge in parliament.
The minister Of militia was closeted all day
with Gen, Middleton and Sir David McPher-
son. The minister of the interior has in
formation that there are 600 hslf-bTeeds under
arms. Latest advices from Prince Albert
and Carlton show the rising is a most
serious affair. The combined insurgents,
half-breeds and Indians have possession Of
all the government stores at Fort Carlton,
have made prisoners Of the officials and even
threaten the fort there. A hundred mounted
police have gone from Swift Current
to the scene of trouble. More start
tomorrow from points west Lieut..
Gov. DewdTey, at present In Winnipeg. has
been in constant communication with the
authorities here relative 70 the disturbances.
A detachment Of mounted police with field
guns go to the scene Of the disturbance.
1t is admitted that the location for Riel
could not he better to accomplish his object Of
taking Fort Carlton. Big Bear is near the
spot aud stoutly refuses TO take to his
reserve and would he doubtless willing TO
follow with the tribe Of Louis RieL The
French haf-breeds also are in close prO1im-
ty and the place in every way II Riel could
get hold of it would be an advantageous one
to him. The mounted police department ia
in close communication with officials at
Prince Albert and full details are expected
rumOr that Fort Carlton has been cap
.ured by RieI Is denied.
Notice has been given in the commons Of
an inquiry whether Riel has been in the en-
ployment Of the government at any time or
in any capacity for the past two years.

ARBoR DAWN D1KorA.

Gov. PIERCE of Dakota has designated
Wednesday, April ID, as arbor day, and
urges the people of the territory to observe
the occasion according ~ the spirit of the
act OF the legislature providing for the same.
The too thrifty locust and the unavailable
cottonwood were frowned down by the body
legislative, as they deserved to be. The
arbor law has proven to be good thing for
a treeless territory in the case of Nebraska,
which, despite the frigld winter and the de-
structive blizzard and the seasonable cyclone,
has been made to bristIe with beautiful
groves, and the barren landscape to take on
the beauties of park features. A due observ-
ance Of arbor day and the letter and spirit of
the tree-culture act would result in changing
the whole aspect of the great territory of
Dakota, making the monotonous landscape
OF prairie take on the semblance of we'll
wooded state. Every farm in Dakota could
be greatly enhanced in value by the plant
ing aud care of trees. Groves would not
only beautify the landscape but
provide means for supplying
fuel and protection for stock
against the eXigeucies of the climate,
and what is herein written of Dakota applies
with equal force 10 Minnesota. Nobody who
has farm, garden or q spacious yard
should wait for aroor day, but when the sea-
son favors aud the weather is propitious pro-
eeed to plant trees. selecting fruit bearing
trees wherever the conditions are favorable,
for then a double purpose may be subserved.

labor PROBLEMS TO BE INYESTI-
GATED.

Col. WRIGHT chief of the lew labor bureau,
has outlined the work of his bureau for the
ensuing year, and his plans have received
the hearty approval of Secretary LAMAR. The
main object of the years. work will be to
ascertain the cause of industrial depression,
and an inquiry is to be made whether they
are contemporaneous in the great producing
countries, whether they are much alike in
periodicity, severity and duration in different
parts of the world and whether they are pre-
ceded by signs which hereafter may be re-
garded as warning of their approach. The
cost of living and the rate of wages in differ
ent countries must be considered and espec-
ial attention must be given to the
effect of CORNERS" upon the worlds
industrial condition. Eminent fnancers
have attributed to corners a conspicuous
part in the decentralization of business, and
it is fortunate that their relation to the well
fare OF labor is to be investigated by the de-
partment. Col. WRIGHT is said to be emf
nenty qualified for the position he occupies
at the head of the labor bureau. The New
York Mail and Express says he is the ablest
statstician in the country, and he may be
expected not only to obtain facts, but lso to
put them in such relations that they will re-
veal the true condition of the people and
indicate what needs to be done for its i'm
provement. He expects to report to con-
gress early in 1886 classified information
which may be useful in the legislation of the
session then in progress.
