' , "1 have been in the apple markets 1 s for yours When tho action of the judges wa over 1 had a talk with Mr. Van Die ihen regarding tlic-o apples, He said: 'Mr. Whisler, we were obliged to giye you the world's prizo he cause of the finality of those npplc.x, which we were compelled to mnrk J00.' And we have the indorsement of Mr. Van Diemen, gentlemen, a man who is well known in tho apple' traile. lie says, '.Never surrender your box,' We hnvo tho government mensures. Some tell us tliece boxes nro filled with pnpor nnd western hot air. (Laughter.) I am going to remove all the paper nnd all the hot air and put the apples into one of the government standards. ''The box itself weighs six pounds and tho apples often run up to f-l pounds, tho gross weight. These apples have been hnndled very much beforo coming here. Thoy wore on exhibition at Spokane, nt tho nation al apple show, (Fills one-half bush el measure from tho box.) Now, gontlemen, is that stroke measure? This (inostioii of stroko measure doos not apply in packing apples. We give you 0.T inches above the government bushel, and then the swoll on tho box nmouuts to over 300 inches. If I woro to pick those up mid pour them over into thnt ves sel you would find thoy would fill it even fuller than it is now. Por Imps I bettor do that, becauso that is tho mothod employed by tho mer chant when ho fills one of those re ceptaclesho pours them Into it. I will tako theso apples back hero nnd just pour them orer into that. I wish to say that with 18 strnii?ht carloads of Kartiott pears I toppml 10 of your markets. I have iu my pocket now tho sales returns of a1 enr of d'Anjou pears at the enor-' mouB price of CVj cents for every! pear that was iu the ear, all sold iiil Now York City tho world's record price. Thoy netted mo back a re- I turn of cents n pear for evory one mat was m tho car: and, gentlemen, i when 1 talk from tho producer's standpoint 1 know what I am talking nbout nnd I claim your consideration and appreciation of our conditions. ! Wo feel that this measure rather! an intrusion upon the rights of the producer. We arc willing to give the) consumer .everything that is right,' yot wo do not like to cut off o-ir bonds. That is all wo ask. Wo! stand as fairly as any one for meas ures of right nnd principles of jo, tice, as I heard proclaimed in th's ' nndionco this morning; hut all the! trouble comes from tho fact that yon J have a wrong stnndnrd."
