 I'll Advised. -One Thomas Day, who nay not be justly considered as hold ng the welfare of the local public as nore consequence than his own indi- gidual interests, yesterday caused the arrest of five employees of the New -tngland Fish Company, on the charge If trespass on a couple Of mineral To-
 ations over which the company seeks @ construct it's electric power trans mission line from the power house at ;e1rge's inlet to it's freezing plant near town, and in which he claims he is the prospective owner of one-half interest. So far as The Miner has been able to learn there is no timber of any value on the claims while their mineral value is only prospective. Whatever may be the rights of the parties in the premises anH and every attempt to hinder or retard tha oper- ations of a company which has eyinc- e1 disposition to accomplish so much for the future prosperity of the town Is not likely to be accorded the favor able consideration of the good people of Ketchikan.
