FOREIGN MONEY ORDERS
 ISSUED AS USUAL

All postoffices throughout tAe c, untry have resumed the issuing vs foreign money orders for any amount.
 Immediately after the war broke out in Europe, there was great @emand for money orders, large and small, to assist stranded Americans in Europe. The rush for money or ders was so great and the chance Gf them going astray and causing Innumerable mix-ups and troubles to the postal department were so so numerous that it was decided to limit the remittances.
 The order issued by the depart nent Is as follows:
 Until otherwise advised, the notice of August 3, 1914. limiting the issue orders payable in Euro pean countries to $10O in favor of one person, Is hereby rescinded. The transaction of international money order business may now be resumed under the general rules and rgula- tlons in force prior to August g., 1914. In the event the demands for money orders in very large amounts are made, postmasters, be- fore issuing the orders, should re- port same promptly to the third as sistant postmaster general, division Of money orders. If deemed of suf- ficient importance, the telegraph may be used. This notice applies to the following countries: Denmark, Germany, France, Great Britain, IrelaLd, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Luxemberg, Netherlands. Norway Russian, Sweden and Switzerland"

OFFICIAL COUNT CHANGES STATUS

Whitehorsa Star: Contrary to what has been ststsd ever since the election, and elsewhere in this paper, ths political status of the aswly elected oOaacfl will not bs equally divided, and instsad of as at first believed, 1t will not be composed of four conservatives and six liberals. The above figures are reversed and the council will stand six conservatives and four liberals.
 When the delayed returns had all been received from the Klondike dis trict the Dawson News of the 10th gave them as follows: Fraser, lib eral, 1s6; Martin and Mccrimmon' conservatives, 1S4 saeh; Landreville liberal, 115. When the official count was made on the 18th, 1t showed Martin to have 1855 and Fraser and McCrimmon 1s4 each. The returning officer, as was his privilege, cast tho deciding vote and for McCrimmon. The council Is now as follows:
 ConserrattvSS-W. G. Radford, Geo. Williams, J. Turner, A. N. Martin, John NsCrimmon. Edward A DkxoR.
 IibWai-W. J., O'Brien, J. P. ruits, N. A. Watt, W. L. Phelps.
 The Dawnoa NsEs Of tho 10th states that Dixon Of WhttehorSe, ran as sn independent. but was en- torsed by tho conservatives. This is . ms-statement. MT. Dixon was regularly nominated by the White horse conservative association. Of which, he has been president for the past two years. He made the race as 6 conservative, and all votes he received outside his party were but testimonials of his popularity.
