year. The territcry,s business, both in
collections and Disbursements has
been slightly larger than during the
fiscal year OF 1911-1912.
In the general account alone the re

OF $3.50, 073.2f over the amount for the
previous year, while the net disburse-

L onn Drawn Out Elections.

No complaint with regard to undue limitation of polling time was possible in the old parliamentary days. The danger was that polling might be pro longed for q fortnight or month. Drastic action to bring the poll to close once provoked riot in the West minister division of London. At the general election that began on April 9, 1T41, the two Westminster minis terial candidates were on the fifth day of polling well ahead, but an oppcsi- tion party of electors approaching the hustings in great force, the high bailiff (who favored the ministerialiSts) de- clared that he feared a riot and closed the poll. The baffled voters rioted and the military were called out. The high bailiff had afterward to apologize on his knees to the speaker and pay a heavy fine.

 A certain Countess of Londonderry wanted to meet the Sultan Mahmud H.. to whom no European lady had been presented, but Lord Ponsonby, the British ambassador, refused to trihe with precedent, Lady London derry then had talk with Reschid Pasha. the Turkish minister for for eign affairs. The willy Reschid, desir- ing to do his best for her ladyship, made known to the sultan that per son had arrived at Consnntinople with q wonderful collection of most Valu. able iewelry for sale and ventured humbly to suggest that his imperial majesty might like to see the gems. The sultan was interested, and an In. terview was arranged, but Reschid merely told Lady Londonderry that she would be presented and that the sui. tan, having heard of the fame ot her jewelry, had particularly requested that she would put It all on when she came. The gratifed lady did so.
 On her arrivaa at the palace Reschid Pasha conducted Lady Londonderry into the presence of the sultan. Her dress glittered with diamonds, pearls, turuuoises and other precious stones.
 "Pekkeir c'Goodr) said the sultan as Lady Londonderry courtesied. "She has magnificent jewels"
 Reschid Cto the lady)-His majesty graciously bids you welcome.
 Lady Londonderry bowed and ex- pressed her thanks in French. the Ian guage used by Reschid,
 Reschid Gnterpreting)-She says she has other jewelry, but could not put on all
 Sultan-ASli her what is the price of that diamond necklace.
 Reschid-HiS majesty inquiries wheth. CT this is your first visit to Constanti- nople?
 Lady Londonderry-This is my first visit, and l am delighted.
 Reschid Cto sultanl-She asks a mil lion of piasterS.
 Sultan-That is too much.
 Reschid Cto Lady Londonderry)-His majesty asks whether you have seen the mosques If not, he offers you a frman.
 Lady Londonderry expressed her thanks.
 SHtan-What price does she put on that set of turQuoises?
 Reschid (to Lady LOndonderry)-His majesty says that perhaps you would like to take a walk in the garden.
 Lady Londonderry expressed her thanks and said she would like to see the imperial garden.
 Reschid (to sultan)-She says 100000 piasters.
 Sultan-Take her away. I shall not give such prices.
 Reschid (to Lady LondOnderry)-His majesty graciously expresses satisfac- ton at having made your aCquaint- anCe.
 Lady Londonderry courteSled low and withdrew from his majesty's presence to visit the garden with the amiable and courteous ReSchid, and afterward she had q delightful story to tell to her friends of the kindness with which the sultan had received her.

NASUTL|N BACK
 FROM WHITE

The steamer Nasutlin arrived shortly before noon today from Don jek with twenty-five passengers, in- cluding Billy James, Mrs. James and Nels Nelson, comprising the discoyerers of the Chisana. Gold brought out aggregates something near $S,00O says the Dawson News Of September 23rd.
 The full list of passengers on the Nasutlin follows:
 Thomas w. o'Brien, L. Stanley, J. c. Griffith, Charles Bush, c. Nebe, T. Pinkiet, George Cordoroy, r w. Peterson, F. Short, W. E. Mckinney, J. A. West, J. A. West, Jr.; c. Olsen, J. R. Croto, N. P. Nelson. w. A. James, Mrs. James J. F. Tonorau, G. Greenlow, Jack Horn. E. Schuts, P. Mcguire, J. Plumb.
 Immediately after the gold was received on the Nasutlin today, it was taken to the bank, and the public has not yet been invited to gaze upon it. The James party is staying at the Prospector. It is the intention of the party to remain her few days, and than go to the coast for the winter. Mrs. James says that, having spent three years in the upper White country, she hopes to spend part Of the winter in California. Billy Johnson, who is one of the partners ill the James properties, remained on Bonanza for the winter. Supplies for the party are at Donjek, and will be freighte1 up to the camp during the winter.
 Charley Bush, George Cordoroy, Charles Drake, Lysle Robinson and Ray Heydon, who went in some tim ago, came out today, and report having secured ground in the heart of the camp, and plan to go back to work. Charley Bush is pleased with the outlook. He praises the government for cutting the trail rom Donjek to Snag, which, heI says, can now be crossed dry shod whereas, when he went up it was deep with mud.
 The Bush party left the diggings September It was then freezing hard there. Bush and partners wer out of grub two days on the way down.
 Al Schultz and Dud Mckinney who went to the strike ahead ot all others this spring, got back to- day. "Grif' Griffith, formerly with the N. A. T. & T., is among the arrivals.
 The returning argonauts repor the Nasutlin made Donjek with al her cargo, including the sawmil taken up by Dawson men. TheI ullll udS uOI yet DSSll oSI SP the steamer left. The river was very low. The Nasutlin left Don jek-three days ago, and Captain Gardner and others of the boat are receiving much praise for comin. cut so successfully at this late date.
 The Splegatus had several more days work to perform in getting her freight to Donjek when the Nasutlin passed The Birches two days ago.

ancient enemy-Demon Rum. +
Just as the old man stepped in a
particular soft spot to make room for
the vehicle, one Of its hind wheels
started on an exploring expedition for
the bottom of the road. Demon Rum
made few efforts to retain his posi-
ton, failed, and fell on Deacon Hawly,
breaking his shoulder blade.
Never did the helping hands of the
people of Goodfolks township work
faster than in the rescue of their be-
loved Deacon. Neither was there any
ever finer display in the love thy

ing hands hoisted Demon Rum off his
high estate once more and pulled the
amber load out of the mire.
Why, then, should the new man
burst into a roar of laughter as he
came upon the scene? Surely there
wasn't anything humorous in seeing
an old gentleman who had never tast-
ed liquor in his life, laid low by whis-
key. The scandalous conduct Of the
newcomer on this sad occasion made
him the most unpopular man in the
township. As some of the neighbors
when he and his sons were hauling
met him during the following weeks
gravel on the road, they hardly spoke
to him. Strange to say the man was
not affected by the chilling conduct
of the good people and braVely stuck
to the job of turning a perilous river
of mire into smooth highway. ~
Gradually it dawned upon the good
people who benefited by the blessings
of a good road, that its builder was
not such bad citizen after. all. So one
day they called on him in a body to
thank him for his unselfishness and
public spirit in presenting the splen-
did highway to the township
"My friends" replied the man, Il
do not deserve your thanks. was
not thinking of you when l built the
road, but of my own sweet self. When
saw Deacon HaWly lay unconscious
in the mire on that fatal night it
may befall me or mine, and SOL built
the road. i am sorry to have deprived
you of the opportunity to dispense
charity along this line, but somehow
it seems to me that the man who
kills the rattlesnake ought to have as
good a chance for salvation as the
fellow who gives the whiskey against
the snake bite"

Goodfolks township was a good

back. Its roads were the worst in for

would sink in the mire up to the axle

blue streaks. Wheels got smashed on
boulders. Horses broke their legs. And
many men lost their temper and their
salvation while vainly attempting to
express their feelings in terms strong

There is some good in most every.
