The temerity of HI. O. Bursum

The old king is dead.
He weighed 500 pounds, with a hide as

his demise. He was a famous bear, notorious
throughout the land. Many hunters. had

He Runp

Can Ezequiel G. de Baca rum
W. may answer Immediately that
ii is uncomfortable that he would
ever run from anyone, a fact which
the Republican ring will painfully
attest.
That he can run for Office is a
fact eloquently proven by the
figures given elsewhere in this
paper.
1t is well to recall the results Of
the first state election and De Baca's
triumphant race for the office of
lieutenant governor. Every county
return on De Baca proved con-
olusiyely that he was running, not
as a mere appendage Of the Demo
cratic ticket, but as II. G. de Baca;
the result demonstrated his great
popularity with the native people
and the Notwithstanding voters
alike. His vote showed the remark
able political and personal strength
of e. G. de Baca as an individual
citizen.
The figures speak for themselves.
No exposition is needed. Today e..
G. de Baca is twice as strong as he
was in 1911. Placed in the difficult
position Of presiding over the SEES
sions Of a legislative body control
led by the opposition and seeking
at every turn to bulldoze and tram
pie upon the minority, the lieuten-
ant governor used every ounce of
his power to protect the rights of
the minority and of the people, to.
uphold the constitution and the law.
He did it with dignity; he exhibited
rare self-control and presence of.
mind and he made 4 record that
appeals powerfully to people who
admire manhood and backbone. On
that record more than anything
else he will be elected governor.
DE Baca's enemies are his best
recommendation. He is hated BY
the Romeros, the uncrowned kings
Of San Miguel county, as the one
man they never could COW or con-
troll; he is hated blythe Republican
ring because he is the one man they
most fear; he is hated by the In
visible Government because he isl
its most dangerous enemy. 1t is a
man Of this kind that the people,
most need in the executive chair.
