the larger office in the event of the House not eleeting a President by March 4. Beyond this the constitution gives no definite procedure. Inevitably the election would get into the courts. and then until the supreme court gave q verdict nobody knows just what would happen.
 How It Figures Out
 The alarming impasse, however, ap- pears to be contingent only on Mir. Coolidge's getting a larger number of electoral votes than Mir. Davis for this reason. La Toilette can get nothing in the east, or the south. The indications are that because of the republican votes the Wisconsin man will take from the republicans in the middle west two of the three big states of that section Illinois, Indiana and Ohio-will go democratic. Assuming that Mir. Cool idge carries New York and the neigh bor states that will probably go as it goes, his total will not be big enough to stand the subtraction of what La Fol | lette may be expected to have in the electoral college and leave enough re- mains to give him a majority of the electoral college.
 La Follete might have as many as a hundred electoral votes without ap- preaching the claims of his supporters, which means that he and Mir. Coolidge together would have to have 366 electo- ral votes, leaving for the democrat only 164, which a glance at the political map showsato be an absurdity.
 The equation does not work the other way about, for the electoral votes Ia Toilette might get would come from republican states exclusively-except

Trader Tells of Activ-
 ities in Arctic Region
Fairbanks News Miner.

E. w. (Patsy) Wyant arrived in Ne mana Friday from San Francisco, and left Sunday for Fairbanks, where he starts on the, long mush to his trading post on Bailey island of Cape Hssh ursb, on the Arctic coast t72 deg. north latitude and 128 deg. west, Greenwichl.
 Mir. Wyant has been located at this l isolated point since 1917, previously having been engaged in trapping on the Middle river and on the upper |. Cinema, in this district.
 He left Bailey island last August on 6 whaling schooner, bound for San Francisco, and the trip o0b took three months. h San Francisco he pur- chased several years supplies, which will arrive at his post, with good luck, on the whaling schooner next August.
 In an interview Mr. Wyant gave the following news from the far Arctic: White fox is the principal catch of fur in that district, and conservative estimate for last year was catch of 20, GOO skins, of which the Hudscn's $ Bay Company took I2,O00 alone. There are about ten white people in the district, and last year the Royal Canadian Mounted Police established a post, with corporal and private, at Bailey island. Between the Hudsou's Bay posts and Bailey island there is a 200- .,iI Additional uVil ably be established this year
 Mir. Wyant states that the wind which blows around Nenana is merely a gentle zephyr compared with what must be faced on the Arctic. Last winter it blew for twenty consecutive days, with the mercury at 55 below. Anyone having to travel wears two suits of deerskin, one with the fur out and the other with the fur toward the body
 The prices of comm odities in his post last year were: Flour, SIC per cwt.; i; bacon, Sl D per pound, ana other com modities in proportion. Coal from Van couver two years ago cost $260 per ton, but last year whaling vessel from San Francisco sold the. same grade at $50 per ton.
 Licenses for trappers in that district have been regulated, says MT. Wyant, according to the following table:
 Alien, first five years. $50 a year as trapper and $300 year as trader; Brit 'ish bora, $75 year as trapper and $l50 year as trader; Canadian born. S2 a year as trapper and 8 8 year as trader. Two years residence is required before a lower rate applies.
 Mr. Want is enthusiastic over the proposed airship flight 10 the Marth Pole. He does not hesitate to say Ghat l weather and ice conditions saould be ideal at the time set for the flight. He will probably bring to that outlying post the first news of the attempt to reach the Pole by the air route. He believes that the flight will be near enough to his post to see the giant ship.
