MORETON FREWEN OF ENGLAND

From time to time as the communca-
lions arrive, and under glazing double
column head lines, the Denver News
prints free silver letters from Moreton
f'rewcn OF London, England. We are
glad to see these letters circulated in
Wyoming. for they are splendid cam
paign documents and make votes for
Mckinley.
The Hon. MorCton Frewen, Wyoming
bank destroyer. cattleman, British aris-
tocrat and East Indian nabob and 'ele-
phant p%uncher." is we'll known in this
neck o the woods it was about four
teen years ago that Morcton came to
Wyoming with somebody else's "wad"
to the amount of a cool $500, 600 in cash,
and he deposited the same with the
banking house of Morton L. Post & Co.
in the early sos, when barons held
heir sway and Moreton was one of
the SWEETEST of this interesting frater-
nifty. In those days money was coming
into Wyoming in car load lots and any
man who could deposit nearly a half
million in 10 minutes was allowed GER

among which was Il reasonable exten-
sion of pc 0n2l credit. Moreton FIRE.

unity and borrowed on his own ac-
count 500. coo.
The Powder River Cattle company,
-rsented by Frewen. invested in
...gles along Powder river in Johnson
".-.ty, Wyoming, and a splendid es-
r'I.shment was maintained as long
a the money lasted and the investors
were not worrying about future divi-
lcnds. OF curse the whole thing went
to pieces when returns were finally de-
manded, but in the meantime Frewen,
as manager. enjoyed life. The Home
ranch" vas just overrun with funkies,
from the liveried butler, who knew
low to cook am and heggs," down to
the COW puncher, who was a necessary
evil in this swell outfit" but who was
a little too free and easy and familiar.
