You may be bully. But
don't ruo II In. You never can
tell when the other fellow
won't turn around and step all
over your face.
Thus II happened. between 1901
and 1905. that Gov. Henry Nc
Bride stepped all over the faces.
Individually and collectively. 81 the
republican machine in this state.
Steps All over EN-
| As the governor. who Is now a
candidate foI another term. is a
stable person physically. OF robust
figure. breadth OF shoulder and
good thickness OF chest. his feat.
not TO say feet. caused many pain
ed physiognomies.
You will recollect that the people
OF Washington in the fall OF 1900
reelected John X. Rogers. demo
crat. for governor. and Henry Nc
Bride. republican. lieutenant gov
ernor.
In front OF the capitol building
at Olympia. there Is today a monu-
ment TO Gov. Rogers. the only
monument erected by the state to
a former executive at the state
capital.
Welcomed Mcbride
II was a tribute to one OF the
greatest men the state ever had
man who had risen from the low
lest plane to the highest position
In the state and a man who has
been the greatest friend to the
school children OF the state by
safeguarding the school lands and
funds from spoilsmen.
Rogers died shortly after HIS
second Inauguration. and the re
publican bosses shouted songs of
JOY. for was not Mcbride. the sue
cessor. republican.
When M2BIi6e stepped into the
executive Lffice. he found IL jam
med to the doors with professional
lobbyists OF every shape and color.
He Hears About Bosses
Also. there were a few patriots
who took him aside and told him
they were bose.
What. ho?" said Mcbride I'm
the governor"
"Ho, Ho," laughed the patriot
&c" chorus. You think you are
We pull the strings
DO tell. said Mcbride.
And they proceeded to tell him
who was To 10 appointed to this
Job. who was to land another
, berth. what laws were to be en-
acted. what other ones were TO be
repealed.
Thought He Was Kidding
You're a republican, amt YOU p
They asked him.

They thought he was kidding al
first. u. Farrell. and Sam Piles
, and George Stevenson. and othe,
officials and attorneys OF the rail
roads. who were then busy in poll
, tics in the hope OF defeating tn,
proposed railway commission Jaw
But Mcbride meant It. He re
, manned governor himself.
Tho he remained republican
he acted independently of the re

 His duty then was plain" MT. Root declared. "It was, first to use his powers as president, to secure protection for the lives and property of Americans in Mexico and to re- quire that the rules of law and stip ulations of treaties should be ob- served by Mexico towards the United States and it's cities.

 '"The President of the United States failed to observe either of those du- ties. He deliberately abandoned them both and followed an entirely differ ent and inconsistent purpose. He in tervened in Mexico to aid one faction In civil strife against another. He undertook to pull down Huerta and set Carranza up in his place. Huerta was in possession. He claimed to nc the constitutional president of Mex ico. He certainly was the de facto
