OF a mild day Of winter. as the home
lights were twinkling in the valley
of the Puyallup. the mortal remains
of Governor John X. Rogers were
lowered TO the grave. The echoes from
the soldiers guns rolled through the
wooded hills. Then came a MON ent
of impressive silence. followed by the
bugle's mournful notes and the sol
emn funeral was over.
Governor Rogers last resting place
is in the forest clad foothills over
looking this quiet little city. The Gem.

with grass even In these midwinter
days and upon its browning knoll is
the grave Of the chief executive whose
sterling virtues has won the love Of
thousands and the respect Of all Pho
neers say no Washingtontonian was
ever before accorded such funeral hon

Olympia. Wash, Dec. 2g.-Governor
Henry Mcbride arrived Saturday. inn
inediately FASTENED with Private Sec.
retary Peiieter TO the Rogers home tn
pay his respects to the family Of hia
predecessor. The governor fastened
to the Capitol building, where Il had
been arranged Chief Justice Reavta
was to administer to him the oath of
Office When the party reached the
court room quite a number were gath
cred in anticipation Of Governor Nc
Brides arrival. Chief Justice Reavis
administered the oath at IL minutes
OF 2 O'Clock, after which those pres
ent filed past and shook hands with
the new executive OF the state of
Washington.
Governor Mcbride then went to his
office to prepare the proclamation
which directs the closing Of all state
offices until after the last sad rites
have been paid TO the remains Of Gov
ernor Rogers.
When seen later by the newspaper
correspondents Governor Mcbride re-
fused absolutely to outline his policy
IN any way except TO say that he would
take no action Of any kind until after
the funeral ceremonies Of the late
governor had been concluded and that
thereafter any action would only be
taken after he had become thorough
ly familiar with the duties Of the pos
ition which he had so recently been
called to fill.
1t is probable that a number OF
state officials will within a few days
ask Governor TO retain William Black
man as labor commissioner This was
always recognized as q personal APP
pointment Of Governor Rogers. and it
is claimed the new governor would
perform a graceful and courteous act
in the retention OF Mr.. Blaekman. who
was Governor Rogers son-in-law.
