Berlin, Aug. 8.—Chancellor Cuno, in array of floral coloring and fragrance
in the rotunda.
President Coolidge, who enters thus
with heavy heart upon the duties of the
highest office in the land, arrived to
take his place also just at the hour set
for the departure.
As the cortege was, forming under-
neath the shadows of the great trees
through which many presidents have
looked out upon the world, sometimes
in triumph and many times in sorrow,
the bell in St. John’s Episcopal church,
across LaFayette Square, known as the
church of the presidents, began toiling
its doleful lament at the passing of a
great heart into the galaxy of immor-
tals.
Only as the procession started did it
become known that Mrs. Harding had
been with the body in the east room
for a half hour at 1 o’clock this morn-
ing. She was alone at times and at
other times attended by one or two rel-
atives. But while officials were gath-
ering at the funeral hour to take up
their places in the cortege she remained
in her room, alone with her grief. -

the many civic and fraternal orders
that had been given places in the rear
were just forming into line beside the
White House.
As Mrs. Harding’s car passed along
Pennsylvania Avenue, only Dr. Sawyer
could be seen within, for the curtains
were drawn. Between her and the cas-
ket, with its single great wreath, rode
the pall-bearers, members of the cabi-
net, representatives of the judiciary,
and senators.
Next behind her followed Calvin
Coolidge, suddenly called to take up
the mantle which had slipped from his
chief’s shoulders. He had appeared on
that avenue before in the subordinate
role which the country assigns to its
vice presidents. Today he traveled the
same route a president, with a burden
ahead and a genuine personal sorrow
beside him. His inscrutable face none
the less showed a grief and a realiza-
tion of the grave moment in which he
was standing.
There followed them another presi-
dent—and other son of Ohio, whom

Tenderly the president had been car-
ried for the last time from the portals
of the White House and placed again on
the artillery caisson that had borne
him last night from the funeral train
to the east room, to lie for a few hours
amid the flowers that had been placed
there in tribute by the potentates of
the earth and by the plain people, the
fallen chieftain loved so well. '
As the funeral hour approached,- the
casket was opened so that near rela-
tives and friends might have their last
look there in the east room at the bier
of their beloved dead who lay with a
peaceful smile in the repose of eternity.
Former President Wilson, himself
broken by the cares of the chief magis-
try, came to the great portico just be-

place in the cortege at the invitation
of President Coolidge. Chief Justice

General Pershing remained on horse-
back in the front of the center of the
rotunda, awaitirg the coming of the
dead to this new scene of tearful,
splendid glory. Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge, designated as marshal of the
parade by virtue of his many years of
public service under many presidents,
alighted from his car beside the ro-
tunda steps and likewise stood waiting,
waiting solemnly and with bowed head,
for the coming of the friend whose
desk had been near his in the senate
chamber in .the . years when Warren
Harding was happy in the lesser re-
sponsibilities of public life and before
. the nation called him to the burden-
some duties that crushed out his life.
It was a wait of only a few minutes.
The troops in front of the capitol pre-
sented arms as the caisson reached the
east front of the rotunda and Pershing
joined in the salute. The long line of
automobiles came to a stop and non-
commissioned officer stepped up and
loosened the wide black straps that
had bound the casket to its funeral
car. Then it was lifted down, and with
the band playing “Lead Kindly Light”
the president was carried, tenderly and
with the loving benediction of a nation
upon him, up the steps and across the
spot where two and a half years ago
he stood to take his oath of duty.
Then the plaza was filled with cheer-
ing humanity. Today it was once more
a picture of reverence and high respect,
but stilled this time by the hush of
tragedy.
Senator Lodge walked up the steps
beside the casket and the empty caisson
I moved away. The dignitaries and the
ministers followed along, step by step,
for the progress up the steps was very,
very slow. Fourteen soldiers, sailors
and marine helped lift the load of
sorrow up the steep and long ascent to
the chamber where Lincoln and Mc-
Kinley rested in grandeur and where
now Harding was to receive the last
pouring out of a great people’s love
and gratitude.
President Coolidge, Chief Justice
Taft and former Vice President Mar-
shall, who also had been allotted a
place in the procession, reached the
rotunda just behind the casket. Mrs.
Harding’s car had driven to an entrance
below the big steps so that she could
be taken to the floor above by elevator.

THE quiet succession in authority,
its simplicity, democratic soundness,
and inevitable certainty, are a suffi-
cient answer to the governor of Ohio,
Mr. Donahey, who fears that a wave
of unrest may sweep the country fol-
lowing President Harding’s death.
They should reassure Senator Ferris,
who fears that Harding’s death “may
give radicalism a firmer hold in the
government of the United States.”
This is a democracy, and radicalism
of the right kind, which means gov-
ernment in the interest of a majority,
ought to have a firm hold in the Unit-
ed States.
But the people intend to have order-
ly, lawful government, not controlled
by plutocracy at one end or ragged
irresponsibility at the other. And that
kind of government will endue as,
with time and death, presidents come

At the same time a bugler came to
the portico and sounded shrilly the
single note of the soldier’s call to at-
tention. The cavalry opposite on the
avenue came to a sharp salute with
their blades flashing in the sun light.
Then there was a flourish of' the
drums, just as the°suns of Fort Myer,
across the silent Potomac, awoke the
echoes with a salute to the departed
comrade.
Mrs. Harding came down the steps a
moment later, heavily veiled, her frail

THERE is no need for any man, pro-

worry about the new president, Mr.
Coolidge.
His term will last just one year,
thirty weeks and three days. In that
time it is safe to predict that ultra-
conservatism will be just about as
much disappointed in him as will ultra-
radicalism.
Meanwhile the little that is known
of Mr. Coolidge is reassuring to those
that remember to what an extent the
selection of vice presidents is a matter
of compromise and geography.
SELECTIONS from the new presi-
dent’s utterances will not surprise or
startle you. This second red-headed
president of the United States—Thomas
Jefferson was the first with red hair
.—is free from fiery emotions, in public
speech, at least.
Union labor leaders, speaking cau-
tiously, not for publication, express the
opinion that President Coolidge is hos-
tile to labor. Such hostility is not con-
spicuous in his record.

CALVIN COOLIDGE, the new presi-
dent, is sworn in by his father, an old
farmer, in a little Vermont farmhouse
at 3 in the morning by the light of a
kerosene lamp. The principal orna-
ment of the-sitting room was a large
wood-burning stove, its iron chimney
pipe running through the ceiling, put
through the room above.
Calvin Coolidge is now president of
the United States and every one is in-
terested in knowing what manner of a
man is Mr. Coolidge.
Some idea may be gathered from the
extract from an address made by Mr.
Coolidge some time ago which is print-
ed herewith:
“Do the day’s work. If it be to pro-
tect the rights of the weak, whoever
objects, do it. If it be to help a power-
ful corporation better to serve the peo-
ple, whatever the opposition, do that.
Expect to be called a standpatter, but
don’t be a standpatter. Expect to be
called a demagogue, but don’t be a
demagogue. Don’t hesitate to be as
revolutionary as eienee. Don’t hesi-
tate to be as reactionary as the multi-
plication table.”
For Galveston and Vicinity:
Generally fair tonight; Thurs-

For East Texas: Tonight and

about him as if he did.
Mrs. Harding, who loves Lad-
die Boy no less than her hus-
band did, told the attendant
whose special charge the pup has
been, to take him in the east
room for a moment because he
seemed to want to go.
Alertly, he sniffed the heavy
air, frightened with the frag-
rance of the funeral blooms,
walked solemnly around the bier
lying under the great crystal
chandelier and powed his nose in
the flowers, as if looking for the
master he knew was there, but
couldn’t see and then turned
brown eyes on the White House

which was too much for them
to endure without their own eyes

Laddie Boy knew his master
was back in the house, but he
seemed to sense that for some
reason he couldn’t find him, and
like a good dog he concluded
there was nothing to do but 8o

wait, faithful to the end.
sorrow. Only a little while ago he rode
over the same way with Warren Hard-
ing beside him in the full bloom of
vigorous life, about to take up the bur-
den he was laying down. Harding’s
consideration for the sick man beside
him touched every heart and dimmed
many eyes that day—it touched Wil-
son’s heart as few things had, and to-
day he came to pay it back and put his
heart upon his sleeve. Little did any-
body dream that Woodrow Wilson
would be helping lay Warren Harding
under the sod, but death had given a
respite to the one and abruptly sum-
moned the other.
As the silver tones of the band mount-

of humanity that packed the great
thoroughfare, tears stole down many
cheeks and many eyes were dim. But
as they entered the sweeping expanse
of the plaza the bands fell silent.
Amid a hush like the quiet of the
tomb the infantry of the escort formed
its line across the entire front, the
marines took up their station to the
north of the steps of the rotunda-and
the blue jackets defiled into a line op-

sharp commands cut into the oppres-
sive silence.

PRESIDENT HARDING, a faint smile
on his face, lies in his coffin, guarded
by American soldiers and sailors, on
his way back to Main street, to the
quiet plot under tall elms in the little
Marion cemetery.

Of command, an army band ahead with
its crepe-muffled drums played “On-

General Pershing’s erect figure on
his splendid mount, commanded a re-
ception in sorrowful contrast to the
last time he had ridden up the broad
avenue. On that day it was the victori-
ous commander leading the victorious
legion and receiving the plaudits that
only the victor in war receives.
Today he was engaged in one of the
sad pursuits of peace. The cheers were
missing; the grim solemn countenance
of the general bespoke the mourning of
the thousands who saw him pass.
Almost before the four black horses
that drew the black wheeled caisson
with its precious cargo had been given
their word of command at the White

Washington, Aug. 8.—A swelling tide of honors bore Warren
Harding today back over the road by which he came, triumphant, to
the presidency two crowded years ago.
For him the urge of ambition was ended, the compelling call of
duty stilled in death. Amid the tens of thousands of his silent coun-
trymen grouped along the way he passed in such state as only the
great dead of the nation may know. And beyond the brief hour of
the ceremony of sorrow there awaited for him rest eternal on the
soil that gave him birth.
Down the wide avenue he was carried today with marching le-
gions tramping ahead to lay him under the dome of the Capitol
awhile ere he goes back to his native state to stay forever. That
! high resolve of duty had brought him death and with it the peace
' and quiet he loved, but which he could set aside nt the nation’s call.
With Pershing riding ahead, the marching thousands of the es-
cort led the way, the steel of their bayonets glittering above him.
. Soldiers, sailors, marines and citizen soldiers, all were there and be-
! hind them came the new president, still bowed in grief that his high
I office came at such a price. Came also two men who before him had
held that office, one to be stricken like himself and so crippled in
illness that he might not give himself as he would to the sorrowful
duty of the day. Behind these, in endless array, marched the great
body of American citizenry and the men who keep the wheels of a
great government moving in the huge silent buildings about.
