In visiting Alaska, President Hard
ing will be realizing an ambition
cherished by President Taft during
each one of the four years he was in
the White House. Mr.. Taft felt that
President of the United States By
all means should visit the farawav
territory which for so long has beer
an integral but isolated part of the
Union. Mr.. Harding will have the
honor of being the first President to
set foot upon Stewards folly for
the journey. Twice he visited the
Pacific coast, but on neither occasion
was the time propitious for the con
cherished more or less secretly the
dream of visiting the Philippines as
President, but his administration was
beset with SO many troubles and un-
certainties in its latter phases, that
SO long an absence from Washington
was out Of the question.
President Taft's interest in Alaska
was heightened by the famous Balm
ger-Pinchot row over the Ballinger
policies in the territory row which
contributed a great deal to the wreck
OF the Taft administration.

President Harding has a great ad-
vantage in making his transconti-
mental speaking tour at a time when
Congress is not in session. When
President Wilson set forth to convert
the country to the league in 1919 he
found himself in a joint debate with
all the republican battalion of death
| in the Senate before his train had
been two days under way.

to call the Senate names and then the
fight was on. Washington poured out

TT has been more than twenty
years since the wife of a Presi-
dent Of the United States has
embarked upon such a strenuous
journey as Mrs. Florence King
Harding has undertaken in the midst
of the summers most scorching heat
wave.
Mrs. Mckinley, in the spring of
1901, set out upon a two months
"swing around the circle" with Presi-
dent Mckinley. Her health, none too
good at the start of the trip, gave
way completely while the party was
in San Francisco, and Mrs. Mckinley
WAS in bed for several weeks while
the capital Of the nation temporarily
was transferred to the shores of the
Golden Gate.
Mrs. Harding herself has but re-
which for a time threatened her very
life. That she should choose at this
time the strenuous trek to Alaska
rather than the quiet of some New
England health resort is but another
indication of her indomitable will
power-the same will power which
kept Mr.. Harding in the race for the
presidential nomination three years
ago when, If his own wishes alone
had been consulted, he would have
withdrawn and left the field to Leon
ard Wood, Frank Lowden and Hiram
Johnson. to say nothing of Will H.
Hays. who was always a potential
candidate in the offins.
Mrs. Woodrow Wilson accompanied
President Wilson on his league Of
nations tour in 1919, which carried
him to the Pacific coast, but that
tour, as planned, was for only four
weeks. Mrs. Harding will be away
from Washington for at least two
months. On the Wilson tour it was

The most elaborate plans have
been made for the comfort of Mrs.

tour. now half a week old, and many
precautions have been taken for the
conservation of her health, which is
still none too robust.
In Mrs. Harding's personal suite
there are trained nurse, ladies'
maid. two physicians and a secret
service man. In addition to these
there are the naval and military aides
to the President, whose duties on

looking after the first lady of the

That Prince Theodore Of Russia, vir-
tually without resources. should have
contracted a marriage in Paris with
Princess Irene Palei must be as
cribed to the fact that the bride. just
twenty years of age, has inherited
much of the good looks of her par
ents, and. above all, to the circum-
stance that she is very great
heiress. For her father, the late
Grand Duke Paul, who was stoned to
death, according to his widow (or
shot down, according to other stories),
by the bolsheviki in January. 1919.
was one of the richest of all the mem-
bers of the reigning house of Rus
sia, having inherited tho bulk of the
enormous fortune Of his mother, tho
late Empress Marie, as her youngest
and favorite child, who was forever
by her side.
When, in 1902, he was deprived of
all his military honors and banished
for marrying at Leghorn, in defiance
Of the cars commands. the divorced
wife Of his aide-de-camp, Gen. Pis-
tolkors. he transferred the bulk of his
property, indeed practically every
thing, save his real estate, to France
and to England, to prevent the dan
ger of its sequestration by the czar.
And when eventually. on the eve of
the great war, he was pardoned for
his disobedience, when he was al
lowed TO return. and when the late

death and rank a. great hsiresaes.
Princess Palei lived for a number
of years perfectly openly and shame

her complaisant husband, Gen. Pts

the GRAND duke. In fact, she bore the
