IMPORTANCE OF VISIT OF PRESIDENTIAL PARTY
There can be no question about the fact that the forthcoming
visit of President Harding to the Territory will tend in many ways to
draw the eyes, not only of officialdom but of the people generally of the
entire United States, toward this northern domain. The newspapers
are already full of the projected visit and will continue to be long after
it has been completed and when the expressed impressions of the Presi
dent are discussed in nearly every household thruout the land.
President Harding and the distinguished statesmen who will ac
company him will ever and anon refer and revert, as the months and
years go on. to the wonderful experiences that they will have had as they
•progress from sea coast to inland waters. The scenic beauties will
.strongly appeal to them and we imagine that close contact wi’h the
"hardy and independent Alaska manhood, of strong and decisive views,
will be a refreshing feature.
Here it is not to fawn and bow the obsequious knee before great
ness, but rather to express an outward manifestation of the comradaire
feeling and the good will that is lodged in the hearts of Alaskans for
the kindly man who guides the destinies of the greatest nation on earth,
and for the success of the advisers who in part share the great responsi
bilities of official decision. It will be a great pleasure for the people—
all the people—of Alaska, to greet the Chief Executive and the First Lady
of the Land.
Alaska will be greatly benefitted by their coming. Their view
point will likely be brightened on many angles and a clear conception
of the trials and problems of the patient and expectant people of this
horthland will be had by the distinguished visitors. And their impres
sions, conveyed to the people at large will but add as an incentive to the
desire for visitation, and even investment, in this mighty land of the
north. As a result the influx of tourists and investors during the years
to come will be in excess of anything heretofore dreamed of.
President Harding and his party will he greeted and welcomed
either at Seattle or on the boundary line by the courteous gentleman who
occupies the important office of Chief Executive of this expansive Terri
tory. His residence of two years in the north has given him a compre
hensive idea of the importance and vastness of this domain. He has !
grasped the optimistic spirit of the north and will undoubtedly convey
to our distinguished visitors a bright vista of the future hopes of its
people. As hosts to the Presidential party Alaska is fortunate indeed
In having available Governor Scott C. Bone and his estimable family to
do the honors.
