PRESIDENT WILSON'S MESSAGE
 ABOUNDS IN SALIENT FEATURES

President Wilson's message, deliver ed in person to congress yesterday, is the briefest regular message ever suD- mitted by a president to congress, and has many salient features for the American people to ponder o'er
 Victoriano Huerta, dictator of Mex ico, is denounced as a usurper. It is made plain that pretended govern ments such as his will not be counte- nanced or dealt with by the United States. "Huerta's power and prestige are crumbling and his collapse is not far away" says the president.
 Congress is told that the country awaits with impatience for the enact nent of the currency bill and the sen ate is urged to concentrate on it until the matter is disposed of.
 The president devotes considerable portion of his short message to a rec ommendation for the enactment of laws which will facilitate rural credits. Congress is urged to enact laws which will not make it necessary for the gov ernmeEt to resort to such extraordi- nary expedients as the distribution of deposits in Western banks to help move the crops.
 More explicit legislation aimed at the trusts and supplementing the Sher- man Antitrust law is recommended. The president promises special mes sage little later on this subject.
 A presidential primary with the re- tentions of party conventions to draw platforms and carry out the wishes of the people expressed at the primary is 
 The president recommends that leg islation affecting the Philippines be drawn with a view to the ultimate in of the islands.
 A territorial government for Alaska is recommended by the president.
 Legislation looking to improved con- 1itions for mine labor is recommended.

ARIZONA WINS OVER
 THE WAR DEPARTMENT

PHOENIX, Dec. 2.-The comptrol- Ter of currency of the United States, George B. Downel, has recently hand ed down an opinion in the matter of the payment of members of the Ma tional Guard companies that are as- signed to certain special dutieS by the adjutant generals of the states, that relieves the secretary of war and the division of militia affairs of the United States army of one of the things that has caused more embar- rassment than any other matter with which they have to deal, and that is the disbursement of funds, provided for the national guard by enactment of congress and allotted to the various states, according to the number of congressman each state has.
 It has been the custom for the dis busements to be made by warrant through the disbursing officer detailed from the national guard, but all of these warrants have been made sub. ject to auditing by the war depart ment. If for any reason the auditor for the war department withheld pay ment then the states were out This situation happened once too often, and the kick, which finally knocked over the complex structure, came from Ari- zona, having been made by Colonel Charles w. Harris, the adjutant-gen- eral of the state, who as Captain c. w Harris, disbursing officer, paid out certain moneys upon order from him. self as adjutant general.

DISARh|NG |S CAUSE
 OF TERROR N SONORA

DOUGLAS, Ariz, Dec. 2.-The dis
 armament of the people of the dis
 trict south of Lampazos, which was accomplished few days ago under the direction of Captain Laustaunou of the constitutional army, has de- veloped much wrath in that section, although the plan was that of the constitutional government announced several months ago. The peo- pie, who feel that they will be helpless in the face of Yapui raids which are anticipated, will it is un- derstood, petition, the state govern ment to return their weapons that they may defend themselves.
 Recent reports from the Yaqui country have it that several hundred Indians have finally broken with the Mexicans and are raiding, independ- ently. All of these Indians are armed with Mexican army rifles and have plenty of ammunition for a long drawn out fight. The raids have, as yet been confined to a small district, according to reports. There is every reason to believe, however, that as they find themselves practically un- opposed by the constituencies who are attempting conciliation of the Reds, they will expand the scene of their depredations.
 The Indians insist upon the return of the ancestoral lands which have been wrested from them during the last few generations by the Mexicans. A number of promises have been made by the constitutional govern ment and, in some cases carried out, One recent proposal, which was to assign large tract in the Montezuma district, in the vicinity of the Yaqui village of Terupa formerly held by the Yaquis, but now, in many in stances in the possession of foreign CTS, was reported here to have been squelched. surveyors had been set at work but, for some reason were with drawn before their work of segre- 1 gating the Indian lands had been

make his home upon, a chance to
get one. Tt is known fact that
the majority of land squatted up

that nine out of ten have been
taken for the sole purpose Of spec

Families Of Deceased are Frustrated with
Grief at the Sudden and Awful Death
8 Of their Husbands and Fathers


Of their Husbands and Fathers
One of the worst and most fatal
accidents that has ever occurred
in the history of railroading in
Harlowton occurred last night
about ten o'clock when the engine
pulling a freight train on the Mil
waukee and driven by Peter Ga
vaart, blew up killing the engineer
and Conductor R. .. Goddard and
seriously injuring Brakeman Wade
and Fireman Mckenzie. The ac-.
cident occurred near Burgoyne, a
station this side Of Lavina. No
cause has been assigned for the ex-
plosion. Conductor Goddard had
been forward talking to the engi-
neer and started back to the ca
boose along the roofs Of the cars.
When he had reached the third
car from the tender the explosion
happened and he was hurled fully
eighty-five feet striking fence
post and breaking it off. He was
unconscious until death, which re-
suited about midnight last night.
Peter Gavaart was conscious until
death.
Fireman Mckenzie was badly
scalded and bruised about the bo-
dy and Brakeman Wade, who was
on the front end, had both legs
broken. Both men were taken to
the hospital and the latest advice
is that both will recover. 1t is re-
ported here this morning that the
wounded men were discovered by
the train crew on Burlington
freight train that was making the
crossing near the scene of the acci-
dent. The Burlington crew stop
ped and wired to Harlowton via
Butte. Doctors from nearby towns
we're on hand as soon as possible
and everything was done for the
injured men that was possible.
The families of the dead men
are Frustrated with grief. The
fireman and front brakeman were
new men, just recently going tc
work on this division.
