2 Milling Interest to Import Hard

The announcement of the Pillsbury
milling interests that they are add
ing to their Buffalo milling facilities
as rapidly as the weather permits in
dicates, according to o. F. Tate, that
the millers intend to take advantage
of the. low tariff on Canadian wheat
and further that they do not fear any
adverse legislation from the present
Congress.
"Under the present tariff of thirty
cents on wheat" said Mr.. Tate re-

uNAPPRECIATED FRIENDLY ACT
From the Butte Miner

It appears Dixon does not appreciate the good offices
of Attorney General Rankin in announcing few days ago that
the executive would candidate for denomination next
the nobody appeared to take MIR Rankns state
SURPRISE and by the it hardly looked upon
news long been supposedly fOregone conclusion that
would ndeavor succeed himself in his present office
The gentleman however to have thought the matter
Importance cOnditionay deny it in interview
given Great Falls Tribune in the of which he said
cat this time not candidate for office, to which he
added further along eff in the future shall ever become
ddate for political office myself will make the announce
ment."
According the Tribune reporter the executive appeared
to be quite little peeved Attorney General Rann's action,
which calls to mind the fact that sometimes when friend tries
to help politics. his efforts always fully appre
ciated.
There be doubt that Mr. Rankin desired to aid the
governor like Mr. Frank Stearns the presidents
confidential friend who last Sunday evening gave out statement
to the that Mr. Coolidge would be candidate for renomna
ton and election
Evidently the attorney general felt Governor Dixon was
dent and modest that he would hesitate to make his future
political plans known Mr.. Rankin concluded it up him
to render this service to the Monta executive.
Unfortunately for the good intentions of the head of the
states legal department. Governor Dixon appears this
kindly act
Of course there have been that Mr. Dixon might
for United States senator instead of seeking denomination for
the Office which he at present holds but these reports generally
have not been taken seriously
Still it appear to Attorney General Rankin that the
time had arrived for putting end and for this sort
OF gossip which he unqueonaby realizes very embarrassing
to Governor Dixon.
The DISTINGUISHED friendship Of the attorney general in
this matter will be recognized at by all those at all familiar
with the present course of Montana politics

Sanchez raised the standard of revolt.
Two days before, the Cooperatistas
had 129 deputies in the lower house,
the Callistas only 124. On the eve
of the revolt, only 20 sDelahuertista
deputies showed up, and it was obvi-
Gus that they had left the partlia-
mentary field to appeal to force
They have appealed to force. From
Vera Cruz comes the report, now Of
ficially confirmed, that the first judi
cial act of Sanchez was the sum
mary execution by the rifle squad If
Heron Pfoal, hated by tine landowners
because he was. the leader of the
Union of Striking Tenants of the Po.t
of Vera Cruz. Sanchez has not yet
captured Jalapa and on three sides
federal troops are closing down upon
him with reinforcements for the peas
ants and the two hundreds soldiers of
the garrison there. The government
has closed the custom house Of Vera
Cruz, retaining the one at Tampico.
General Estrada, in Jalisco, whose
forces l cannot accurately estimate
on account of conflicting reports, is
being approached by the loyal armies
of Guanajuato and other neighboring
states, as well as the army released
by the surrender of General Romulc
Figueroa, who had revolted in Guer-
zero week previously, although it is
not at present apparent whether in
agreement with Sanchez and Estrada
or for the purely local reasons that
he alleges
U. S. Papers Exsggerate
The accounts that some of the
American papers published the first
and second days of the revolt are
! grossly exaggerated Neither Villas
brother, nor Madero, are implicated
The state governments of Puebla
Queretero, and one of two contesting
and rival Governments in San Luis
Potosi have been removed without
bloOdshed, all other governors and all
other important military divisions re-
main loyal to Oregon. The north Of
the country, the Maya region of Yu-
catan, the Yaqui Indians remain 10y
al, all this by way of refutation OF
the false reports cabled by the New
York Times reporter here, De Cour-
sey, who has been arrested on account
| of his activity as an alarmist.
1t does not appear at this writing
that American financial interests
who have subsidized so many revolu-
tons, have a hand in this one. The
finance capitalists seem content with
: the debt recognition of the Obregor
government. The Doheny interests
have just advanced (less than two
weeks before the revolution wheI
there were already clouds on the hori
zon) 100000 pesos on account q
taxes of next year as loan to the
government.
Workers Will Get More Power
The net effect of the uprising
promises to be a clear field for
the presidential candidacy of
PlutarcO E. Gales, nominee of the
LabOrista, Agrarista, COmmun-
ista and other parties of left ten
denotes; opposition only by some
such candidate as Angel Flores,
representative of land-Owning in
terests, who is remaining neutral

NOTED such overwhelming reponse on
the part of the organized workers and
farmers if it had been merely a
question of personal succession to the
presidency. But, in spite of the for
mer revolutionary tendencies OF De
La Huerta, recent political events have
slowly but steadily tended to line up
the reactionary forces of the country
behind him and make him, Willingly
or unwittingly, their instrument.
While Gales tended to take more
and more definite stand fer the work
ers and farmers, the manifestos and
speeches of De La Huerta spoke in
creasingly of pleasing all classes, of
giving effective guarantee to property,
etc.
Class Issue Clarified
But the personality of De La Huer-
ia and his views as well, though they
serve as the rallying cry of the cOun-
ter-revolution, are rapidly receding
into the background and neither
friendly nor enemy papers are men
tioning his name. The state of war
proclaimed by the rebellion sharpened
and clarified the class issue. Even
professional politicians of the Cooper
atista party, who have held the reins
up till now, such as Jorge Prieto
LOrenz, are scarcely being mentioned
Two personalities stand out with
stark and revealing nakedness-Gen-
eral Guadalupe Sanchez and General
Enrique Estrada.
And whatever may have been their
uncertainty, confronted with De Ia
Huerta and even with Presto Lore1z
the peasantry are no longer uncer-
tain. General Sanchez has always
been an avowed enemy of the agra
rian program of the landless farmers
1t was he that tried to disarm the
Vcra Cruz farmers, that gave protec.
ton and support to the big landown
ers. They have no doubt about him
And as to Estrada-he was the mar
to whom Obregon had offered the de-
partment of land distribution, only tx
withdraw the nomination when Els
trada made declaration to the press
completely hostile to the agrariar
program of the present government.
DOOmed tn EarIv Death
The counter-revolution came sud
denly, reached its maximum swiftly
and judging from present indica
tions, will be over shortly. Up to {
few months ago, Gales was the oull
candidate in the field, offering hi
nomination by both Cooperatistas anC
LabOristas, supported by De La Huer
ia, and opposed only by the big lane
owners. He had to choose between
Cooperatistas and LabOristas. II,
chose the latter and split the Cooper
atista party. Followed in swift sue
cession, the resignation of De L;
Huerta from the cabinet, his nomina
ton by the remnant "a majority, bu
a slight one) of the Cooperatista par
ty. the charge by the new secretary
of the treasury that the former one
