MANY PASSENGERS ARRIVE SEWARD
 ON STR. STARR
STEAMER STARR IN PORT AZ. TER STORMY PASSAGE TO
 WESTWARD

Through wintry blasts and sun- sIine alike, the staunch steamer Starr Captain O. A. Johansen, arrived in pert this morning at six thirty, just fifteen days since her departure for the many westward points. Heavy weather was encountered and the yes sel was at one time practically en- cused in ice Twelve first class pas stLgers and eighteen steerage pas sengers were brought into port on the Starr, as we'll as fifty tons of gen eval cargo This consisted of about tIiit ty tons for the Jesse Lee Home anl twenty tons for the local Stan (; I'd Oil plant.
 The first bad stretch of water was e.,t ountered near Kanatak where the t,at became iced down All hands joined in chopping away until the de"ks and rigging were clear.
 For the first time in three years the antennae broke down from the he, " burden of ice clinging to the frail wireless equipment. From Ka- natak to False Pass fairly good Wea- ther was enjoyed. While tied up at the False Pass dock a terrific gale sWooped down over the region At Lost Harbor the vessel threw out the anchor. Then between Lost HarbOr and Akutan the worst weather of the entire trip was run into. So severe were the gales that the ship was un able to call in at Sanak, both coming or going. On the return trip they had fair weather until they left Uganik and when off Barren Islands hit the tail end of the storm which hit the steamship Victoria few days ago. The incoming passengers were: w W. Caravan, M. c. Miller, A. A. Ivan ow, F. A. Cornell, Mabel Oberg, Mrs George Kerns, Dan Ross, l.. D. Roach Earl Sorenson, T. o. Perry, S. Pittas s. Simond, B.

 up the line, there is a little town building, steam heat and all the latest modern improvement erected at an expense running into hundreds of thousands of dollars. About midway between Eska and ChickalOOn at a place called Sutton, there is one of the finest coal washers in the coun- try. There are four tracks running in to it. I do not know just what the cost was but it must be about $2OO- 900. and everything lying idle. Now, if that Senator friend of yours was going to make a wagon road out of our railroad, hadn't he ought to have done it before the government went to this expense. Now, remepber, my friend, the country we are in now is not gold. It is coal, coal everywhere. In some places the coal crops out of | the ground in veins from two to ten feet and yet no coal is shipped The Indians in early days used to mine the coal for the steamboats running up Cook Inlet sending out cargoes of from 50 to 150 tons, and now the
 white man cannot ship it with all
 the latest modern machinery
 Now, my friend, we will go back
 to the main line and go up into the
 Mt Mckinley and Fairbanks country.
 All this country you see around you
 is a placer mining country and has been all gone over once. A corpora tion has been formed recently to
 dredge and sluice all this whole coun
 try, and they are going to make g
 fortune, for there is more gold in the
 ground around Fairbanks than was
 taken out. Insteading of taking the railroad out they will have to double the track to handle the traffic. Tha will be done in time under the pres ent management of Noel Smith. What is the matter with Smith? He is all right"

DEEP GAP MAY GET BAND MILL
OTHER INTERESTING NEWS

1t is rumored here that a large
band mill may be built at Deep Gap
by some lumber company. We hope
that this project may mature in the
near future. 1t will mean much for
this section.
Mrs. J. E. Luther has been very
much indisposed for several days re-
Gently and confined to her bed part
of the time. She has improved very
much at this writing and able to sit
up again.
A number of cases of scarlet fever
in mild form have again broken out
at this place, but so far it has not
affected the attendance of the con-
solidated school at Deep Gap, so one
of the teachers tells the writer.
Pastor Ed Hodges filled his regu-
lar appointment at the Gap Greek
Baptist Church Saturday and Sunday
On Saturday Rev. Marshall Watson
of Darby delivered sermon at this
church which very much pleased his
congregation.
The chestnut crop here was bum
per one. The market started out with
Is cents per pound and ended with
2 cents pound. Mr.. Miller, our To-
cal merchant has bought and shipped
a large quantity of them.
The folks around Deep Gap are
certainly eating beef. There has been
a large number of beeves killed here.
The low market has turned this sec
ton almost into slaughter yards.
1t pleases US very much for our ed
itor to spin down into this section
and others nearby. Everything he says
and does catches our attention. Mr..
Rivers is good booster for this and
other communities.
A large amount of produce is be-
ing hauled away from this section.
Cabbage for while was in good de-
mand, but the price has gone down
in many instances to one cent pound
Apples are bringing in the orchards
60 to IS cents bushel and are in
good demand. This has been a hard
year on farmers here and the farm
products are very limited indeed.
Mr.. B. L. Greene of Boone R. F.
d. was a visitor in this section on
Saturday and Sunday at the home
of Alfred Watson.
What has become of the good cor
respondents of the Democrat? Do
not remain dormant and let Cove
Greek be the only place that has a
correspondent that never drops out.

.BRANSON BENTON
HAS SURRENDERED
Notorious. Wilkes Outlaw Yields AT.
ter the Sheriff Fails to Catch Him
Is Held Under Bond
Wilkesboro Dispatch of the 18th to
Winston-Salem Journal

Wilkesboro Dispatch of the 18th to
Winston-Salem Journal
The surrender this afternoon of
Branson Benton, touted as member
of the alleged 'big six" liquor gang
ended a state wide chase after the
Wilkes county man in the wake of
bnech warrants issued by Judge A. M
Stack and a reward of $500 offered
by the county and state for his cap
ture after he was outlawed, and thus
was written the most sensational chap
ter in the history of blockading pros
ecutions which gave Wilkes county
its second theme of the day.
Benton had been sought since Judge
Stack held court here last August,
when NJ P. Masten, a witness in a
case against Benton, broke down up
on the witness stand and confessed
that Benton and T. C. Foster, Ben
toms father in law, had given him
five hundred dollars to stay away
from court and not testify against
Benton, Judge Stack sent Sheriff FL
ledge with Mastion to get the $500
note and the 5000 cash. Both were
impounded in the clerks office. Then
at a later date while he was holding
court at Boone, Judge Stack issued
another bench warrant for Benton,
and placed it in the hands of Con-
! stable Steve Esteb. who also failed
to serve the paper. -.-!
1t was following report mAae
by Estep to Jsd@e Stack, while the
latter was conducting court at Tay-
lorsville, that the jurist issued the
proclamation outlawing Benton. Pre-
viously Judge Stack had ordered that
if Benton was cuaght bond of not
less than tern thousand dollars should
be required.
This afternoon Benton came in and
gave himself up. to Sheriff Elledge.
File filed justified bond of $4,000
for his appearance at Superior court.
Benton is not bad man as some
have understood. 1t is said that he
is a big hearted fellow, who fell in
to- the Illicit liquor traffic by reason
of surrounding conditions and en-
vironment entirely beyond his con-
troll. Back iin the good old days his
people made kquor that government
gaugers passed up as ''pure as noun
tain dew" and Aein reared in To-
cality where eonrl and apples and
peaches were considered legitimate
provender, if Distilled, he just nat
urally got into the habit of making
it. In the years that have followed
he has accumulated considerable pro-
perty and is educating his children
and rearing a family of fine boys
and girls.

the hospital for the dangerous in
sane for the protection of society at
large"
A development Of the day is ac-
tive speculation as to whether Rev.
A. L. Ormond as administrator of the
estate of Bill Ormond, will file civil
damage suit against the defendant.
Should it be adjudgel as fact that
the defendant shot Ormond as re-
suit of insanity rather than in self
defense, awyers here believe the es-
tate of the deceased young man has
grounds for fight. Whether the Or
monds will take this means of con-
tinuing a fight for what they may
consider to be essential justice is one
which is now in the speculation state.
Clyde Douglas, of thefirm of Douglas
& Douglas, of Raleigh, suggested as
the firm to lead this line of action,
said in Rockingham that his firm had
not been approached on the matter
and that so far as he knew Mr.. o.
.mond had not considered the ques-
ton.
The absorbing aftermath of the
trial is the question as to what state
ments Elizabeth Coles letters to Bill
| Ormond contain. Two reputable, phy-
sicians staked their reputation that
she was woman of virtue. AS a.
gainst this is the reiterated asser-
tions Of state lawyers that if they
had been permitted to introduce the
letters they would have thrown an
entirely different light on the mat
ter. They attempted to suggest to
the jury that the quoted statements
in Bill Ormond's SANDER letter were
taken from another letter. 1t was an
nounced after the trial that the let
ters would never be published. AS
against the intimations by the state
forces, the Cole lawyers, speaking fol-
themselves and for Elizabeth CoCle,
requested that the letters be placed
in the evidence, declaring that the
letters contained nothing that they
feared to face.
