Casting ITS Shadow.

GRIEVANCES IN THE CANADIAN NORTHWEST WHICH
PORTEND COMING UPRISING.
A dispatch to the New York Herald from Of
tawa, Nov. %, says: The recent rebellion In the
Canadian northwest does not appear to have re-
suited in allaying the numerous grievances the
settlers of that part OF the Dominion have against
the federal government. large number OF set
tiers in the Manitoba district are again pressing
their claims to lands acquired by them prior to the
transfer Of the country to Canada, which they
allege they have been deprived of. The delay in
dealing with these claims and the total indifference
shown by the government, it will be remembered,
precipitated the country into rebellion last year
which resulted in large loss OF life and an addition
Of $40 600 to the national debt OF the country.
Precisely the same danger again staring the gov
ernment in the face There is no Riel now to strike
the first blow, yet there are others equally dan
gerous who would not fear nor hesitate to resort
to extreme measures II pacific measures fail
1t is notorious fact that the patents OF these
lands have Wilfully been Withheld, members OF Par
Lament OF some political favoriteS wanting them.
II was the interference OF these 'bOOdlen poll
ticianS with the just claims OF the settlers that
brought about the uprising OF 1885. The governor
general has now been appealed to, every effort to
induce the government TO grant these titles hav-
ing failed This is their last report. In short the
same state OF affairs as existed two months before
the rebellion OF last year broke out exists now.

LIVELY CONTEST OVER A SEAT IN THE NEW JERSEY


A dispatch to the New York Herald from Tren-
ton last night says: Republican politicians are
very much perturbed over the situation Of affairs
The state committee met In this city to-day and
held prOtracted conference. Senator Sewell and
Speaker Armstrong were present and related how
alleged frauds had been perpetrated by the demo-
Gratis in the Sd assembly district Of Camden
county, whereby Haines, republican, was counted
out on Friday last. He had been declared elected
by the county board OF canvassers by AZ plurality
The recount gave his opponent, Turley, democrat,
IA plurality. 1t Is charged that the ballOt-bOXeS
in two townships were tampered with after the
election and TurleyS name was written over that
OF Hafnes, the latter having been scratched. This
1t is alleged, gave the former an apparent plu-
rality. Justice Parker gave Turley the certificate
OF election, which will seat him when the legis-
lature meets.
The republican committee decided to offer a
reward OF 81 600 for the arrest and conviction OF
the tnstigatOrs and perpetrators OF the alleged
fraud. They have employed counsel to begin an
investigation, and testimony Will at once be
taken to establish the charges. The seat will be
contested both in the legislature and in the courts
State Controller Anderson prOnounceS it blum
dering, barefaced fraud and Speaker Armstrong
says he knows who committed 1t. Arrests will
soon follow. 1t is reported that IL a democrat is
elected to the United States Senate his seat will
be contested.
The democrats laugh at what they call the silly
vapOrfngS OF the republicans and say IL fraud was
