We have not found out vet if !I<nr\ O'Malley is
g-oing- to leave the “widow’s’ t”ap in Foggy Bay or

inland traps except win rr “widows” were involved.
In the heat of battle, some citizens were confus* d
hv the last minute lies of th, Ketchikan Olironiclo and
1 he .Juneau A umpire, well-kuov n speeial interest ])a

crats can keep all ‘loir premises made to these
parties, remains to be seen. This job will not be so
11tti cl it tie* partii s belong together, as some suspect.
