The people of Garrison are patiently

for their elevator completed, and Will

company has the scales in place and
commenced last Monday to buy grain,
loading it in cars. J. A. Reuter- of I'm
derwood is manager of the elevator
and purchased THE first load OF wheat
marketed in Garrison of Joseph Weber
and the first load of fax of John
Colby.
This station was opened for bust
ness on September IA, only one week
ago. and since that time the freight
on goods received amounts to over
$4,000, and there are number of cars
for this point yet on the track be-
tween Underwood and Bismarck. In
dacadons are that the extension will
prove a good paying investment for
the 500 right ON the start. Grain is
beginning to move and most Of the
cars amDoaded here now will be re-
turned fun Of wheat Or fax, as grain
win be marketed in Garrison from a
distance Of fifty miles.

In virginia. &
In 1919 the London company, the
proprietors Of the colony Of Virginia,
sent over a Mr.. King and 100 skilled
ironworkers to erect furnaces on Fall.
Ing creek. These men came chiefly
from Warwickshire and Stafrordshire
and when once In Virginia named the
village that grew up about their iron
works Warwick. III II
Mr.. King soon dropped out OF the
enterprise, and Captain Bluett SUI
perintended the erection Of the works.
But his career was a short one, after
which John Berkeley, son Of Sir John
Berkeley, nobleman Of much dis
dnction, succeeded to the superin-
tendency Of the establishment and
conducted 1t ably until one day-March
q. 1922 the Indians, under Opitcha-
pan, brother of Powhatan, surprised
the village and murdered Berkeley and
100 men and women.
In 100 mills were built upon the
ruins Of the iron furnace. In those
mills was ground the first -four export
ed from America, much Of 1t going to
South America. From that time on
Warwick grew rapidly until 1t became
an important manufacturing and ship
ping village, as it was at the head Of
navigation. gs n
Shortly before the outbreak of the
Revolutionary war Colonel Archibald
Cary acquired possession Of the vast
estate known as Ampthill, that lay
on the James river and inland along
Falling creek for a distance. The es.
tate was named after one in England.
Colonel Cary was chairman Of the
committee that drafted the first bill
Of rights and state constitution in
America, that Of Virginia. When the
war broke out he took an active part
In the military operations Of his coun-
try in the south. . II z. tl-:..
Tarleton, the British general, sailed
up the James river and burned War
wick and Colonel Cary's mills on Fall
ing creek.
The old Ampthill house occupied by
Colonel Cary at the time is still stand

scendants Of the Cary family.-Scien-

FOR MIR. POWERS TO EXPLAIN.

The foregoing letter Is reproduced on the preceding page in facsimile
 The question arises, why was not Farmer Kerr's money returned, as promised? MT. Powers in his literature laid great stress on the fact that no money went for high salaries.T Then what has become of it? Certainly. there is no smelter at Wickenburg How many other investors were hooked along with Farmer Kerr, it is impossible for out siders to say.
 Concerning this transaction, a prom inent supporter of MT. Powers for mayor said yesterday: What differ ence does it make? Powers has only done what lots of other men in the territory have done. Lots of fellows are selling mining stocks to eastern suckers" But the point was overlook ed by this gentleman that there is all the difference in the world between a mining scheme. such as is ordinarily offered to investors, and a shelter scheme. The money derived from the sale of mining stocks usually goes in- to the ground-a part of it, at least. The promoters are always sanguine of success and if they fail it is because their judgment was wrong. And the investor, if he have any sense, knows that his investment is usually a gamb- ling speculation.
 But this smelter proposition was en- tirely different. The money of the shareholders was supposed to go into the construction of a shelter. The smelter was not constructed. What be- came of the money? It is precisely as if MT. Powers had announced five years ago that he proposed to construct shoe factory at Phoenix; that all the money obtained would go into the con- struction and that nothing would be eaten up in high salaries" If the shoe factory had failed of construction because of a lack of sufficient money, investors would have the right to de- mand the return of every dollar invest ed. And in this particular case MT. Powers specifically promised the re- turn of MT. Kerr's money. Two years after he had made this solemn promise it was still repudiated And the re- pudiation was of 'measley" forty dol lars.
 The record. as made up by Mr. Pow CTS. speaks for itself

KERR APPLIES TO LAwYER.

The promise to return the money by the first of September 1902. was not kept so far as Farmer Kerr was concerned, according to his complaint. So. two years thereafter, in August last. MT. Kerr wrote to a lawyer in Phoenix:
 "Haroll. H., Aug. 19, 1904:
 Dear Sir: On July 3, 1900, I sent to the Acme Smelting and Refining company of your city, Arizona, a draft for $40 for which the said company is sued and sent to me one certificate of 50 shares of stock payable to E. Alice Kerr and one of like amount of stock payable to z. Bell Kerr, dated July ', 1900. The parties last named are my daughters and up to this date we got no dividends. nor do we get any word from the Acme company of late date. We did get a letter from T. T. Powers, the then president of the company, dated Phoenix, Ariz.. April 9th, 1902. in which he says the company above re- ferred to is doing business at that place and that they expected to be paying dividends by September of that year-1902-and if not all monies in vested in the Acme melting and Re fning company would be returned to all investors who desired its return and since then We hear little from any one on the subject and have requested a return of the fund from the president, T. T. Powers. but got no word from him since April 9th. 1902 letter from w. H. Bagley. Feb. 27, 1903, states that he thinks the company non est Now what could you do with this claim. Could you collect the money and ct what per cent or is there any hope or prospect of the Acme Smelling and Refining company of Phoenix. Ariz., ever coming to the front in a paying manner.

MORE EXCUSES

MT. Kerr was patient, and he wait ed six months before making another inquiry as to how his investment was getting along. So President Powers sent this answer:

 Dear Sir: Your kind letter of in quiry at hand and in reply beg to say that We have everything in such shape that we expect to have our plant in operation within the next 90 days or thereabouts. We were disappointed in some of our arrangements, as We fully expected to have had our plant turning out bullion before this date. The de- lay is all together favorable to us, though as it will enable us to prepare more fully for the enormous amount of ore which We are certain to receive.
 You may rest assured that We are doing everything that we can to com plete our plans and that we are equally anxious with yourself to be realizing handsome returns. Believe us to be. very truly,

FARMER kERR ANXIOUS.

It appears that after making his in Vestment in June, Farmer Kerr began to sit up and take notice, and by and by to wonder when he would hear that the smelter had been started up, and when dividends would be forthcoming. So President Powers made this reply:
 Phoenix, Ariz.. Dec. 31, 1900 U. D. Kerr, Raymond, Ill.,.
 Dear Sir: Your letter of inquiry at hand and in reply would say that the Acme Smelling and Refining company is most certainly very much in exist ence. We are making good progress in the matter of selling stock prepara- tory to erecting our plant. There have been some delays which we could not avoid. We are pleased to note that your Missouri venture is proving such success. We too will be paying divl- dends regularly in short time.
