Challenge of the Yukon: Race of the River Boats

The challenge of the Yukon! It's Yukon King! Swift, the strongest lead dog of the Northwest! Blazing the trail for Sergeant Preston, of the Northwest powdered police! In his relentless pursuit of lawbreakers! And King, on new Huskies!

Gold! Gold! Discovered in the Yukon! A stampede to the Klondike in the wild race for riches! Back to the days of the Gold Rush! With Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog, Yukon King, as they meet the challenge of the Yukon.

Liz's Terret was an influence in Dawson City. She had inherited several enterprises from her husband who had died the year before. Liz had taken over and was prospering. Now that summer had come, Liz had big shipments to make to Seattle, both of gold and of furs.

Davis of the Yukon Bell had docked at Dawson City after returning from the trip to Selkirk. He went to the Terret fur trading office to make the usual deal to carry Liz Terret's shipments to Seattle.

Howdy, Captain! I figured you'd be coming around sometime this afternoon. Adverture! Thanks, Liz. I suppose you've come about carrying our shipments this season. That's right. You saw the new riverboat, the River Queen, that put up here yesterday, didn't you?

Yep, sure did. It looks like I'm finally going to have some competition. Well, it seems to me you'd act a little more worried than you do, Captain. Well, I sure do. I've been given good service to folks up this way ever since the gold rush started.

Yukon Bell is a fine boat, even if the River Queen is newer. I reckon there's enough business for both of us anyhow. Look, Captain, I had a visit from the skipper of the River Queen this morning.
