 PICTURES ."TOOk'
IN A JITNEY, BOTH THE FIRST MAYOR OF THE CITY AND
 THE PRESENT MAYOR.

The other day. two men entered the only 'jitney" doing business as such in the city. and stood sitting while their pictures were taken This alone would not constitute sufficient mater ial for a notice were it not for the fact that both men have been honor ed with the highest office in the gift Of the residents of Ketchikan; and that one was the first so honored af- ter the incorporation of the city as municipality and the other is the first elected to the same office by the dir ect vote of the people Both held the office of mayor. M. E. Martin was the
 first mayor of Ketchikan and NJ J. Henneghan was elected mayor by the peoples direct vote this spring pur- suant to an act of the territorial legis- lature- Both enjoy the full confidence of the people; both are in business and have been successful as such. But the most remarkable feature is that both are of Irish Cor French) parentage. as their names indicate. However, those who know the men will appreciate and treasure a picture ot the two sitting in the jitney bus. Not only because they have been mayors. nor because they are in busi- ness. but because their respective giv- en name is Mike.
