 Charles H. Cosgrove is probably the best known lawyer of the southern end of the First Judicial Division. He has been a resident of Ketchikan since the early days of that city, and is well and favorably known in all sections of ! Jlle DlHloAOAs
 Both Mir. Sulzer and Mir. Cosgrove have told friends that they will make a campaigning tour of their Division, speaking in all the important places, and meeting all the people.
