Transcript

The challenge of the Yukon. Unking! Un-Yor-Huskey! The Wonder Dog King, swiftest and strongest of Eskimolid dogs, blazes the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston, as he meets the challenge of the Yukon. Sergeant Preston was typical of the small band of Northwest Maunig Police, who preserved law and order in the new Northwest country, where the greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence in the West.

where the greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog King met that challenge, and Justice ruled triumphant. Sergeant Preston of the Northwest Monet Police had stopped at the cabin of Ned Peterson on his way to Dawson.

King Preston's big lead dog lay quietly beside his master as the two men propped their feet against the stove and talked. Oh, I'm doing fairly well with my claim now. Only I could get that son, Jim, of mine working.

I could pay back the money I owe, Jake Wilson. Well, Jake will extend the loan he made, and he'll explain things to him, man. Oh, I don't know, Sergeant. Jake's a hard man. Made me put my claim up as collateral.

He thinks it's rich enough. He'll take it away from me. Jim has just got to work it with me. That's all. He's so interested in his darn trapping that he spends most of his time at it.

Well, of course, Jim's done a good job of trapping. You have to admit that. Yeah, he's kept us from starving to death, till I finally made a strike. They keep telling him there ain't as much money in furs as in gold.
