Commissioner O'Malley wrote a letter to this effect to the Delegats with permission to give it publicity. “The Delegate then had about both breeds. e galloyak, may do for Alaska in than the reindeer has done or native of the high plateaus and in the open in the coldest weather It gives a Its coat of hair is really The natives of | we use the wool of sheep. alloyak, can find a .congenial home it may roam | source of profit in many | (New York Times.)
