GIVES IN
WILI, MODIFY HIS PROTECTION
IDEAS TO SUIT BALFOUR.
Ittae Book Is Issued Shoivins the
Decline In Brltlnh .Exports and.
the Effect of Dingier Tariff.
LONDON. Sept 16. On the heels of Pre
mier Balfour's academic expression of his
personal views of the fiscal problem, con
tained in the pamphlet on "Insular Free
Trade," advance sheets of which "were
Issued last night, came the long promised
and much demanded government statistics
dealing with that subject. They were
issued today by the Board of Trade, in the
ehape of a blue book of nearly 500 pages
of bewildering tables of figures, showing
the various aspects of British and foreign
trade, and the industrial conditions. No
deductions were drawn, though the publi
cation teems with interesting notes upon
what are regarded as points of fact. The
references to foreign trade -were chiefly
confined to France, Germany and the
United States.
The Pall Mall Gazette says it under
stands the Cabinet has concluded the con
sideration of its fiscal position and its
policy in regard thereto; that no further
Cabinet meetings will be held for the
present, probably not until late in the
Autumn, and that in the meanwhile -the
Colonial Secretary, Chamberlain, will pro
ceed with his expository programme. The
paper adds:
"It will probably be found that he has
modified his proposals so as to bring them
in harmony with Mr. Balfour's views as
set forth In the pamphlet. The main
feature of Mr. Chamberlain's modifications
will be the disappearance of all sugges
tions in the direction in the further taxa
tion of foodstuffs and raw materials.
"Consideration of the war commission's
report Is reserved for future meetings of
the Cabinet."
The Pall Mall Gazette believes it Is still
possible that -here will be more than one
resignation r -m the Cabinet. One of the
most imports 'it phases dealt with In the
bjue book Is i's reference to Imports and
exports. Tin- tables show that the ex
ports from u.e United Kingdom to the
United States declined from 1145,000,000 in
1890 to $97,500,000 in 1802, while the imports
rose from 5455,000,000 to 5C35.000.000. The to
tal exports to all foreign countries de
clined in the same period $90,000,000, though
when the colonies are Included, the decline
only amounts to 55,000.000. The proportion
of the United Kingdom's exports, as be
tween protected and unprotected coun
tries, In the markets of the world, has
been reversed since 1850. Then It was 5
per cent to the protected countries and 44
per cent to the others. In 1902 the pro
portion was 42 per cent to the protected
countries and 5S per cent to the others.
A valuable bit of Information is given
on the quoted excess of Imports over ex
ports which has so often to be held as a
sign of British trade decline. The blue
book says that while the excess yearly
averages about 5S00.000.O00, the Income re
ceivable from foreign Investments, calcu
lated at $312,500,000, added to the earnings
of the British merchant fleet engaged In
foreign fleet, calculated at 5450,000,000, "Is
probably more than sufficient to account
for the average excess of imports."
"Americans have made large Invest
ments in the United Kingdom of recent
years and American repurchases of rail
road and other securities are admitted to
have to some extent affected the fiscal
figures, but 'they are not likely to form
a serious factor.' "
Much attention is devoted to the tin
plate industry and the effect of the Ding
ley and McKInley tariffs. The figures
Bhow that the total exports of tin from the
United Kingdom has declined only little
over $5,000,000 since 1897, with a marked in
crease in the quantity produced and in the
value of a number of mills since 1S9S.

SOCIALISTS FORMING A POLICY.
German. Leaders Will Combat MII
tarism and a Larger Nuvy.
DRESDEN, Sept 16. The Socialist Con
gress, after two days' discussion of the
literary activities of members of the
party, decided at noon today to close the
debate and the personal explanations
of various writers began. The roll call on
a motion that the party's executive com
mittee prohibit the members of the party
from contributing to the "capitalistic
press," resulted In Herren von Vollman,
Heinok and 18 others voting against it and
23S for the motion. Herr Bernstein aroused
a storm of mockery by refusing to vote.
Herr Eebel. Singer and Kautsky formu
lated tonight their resolution on the
proposed revision of the party programme.
The resolution condemns the proposition
that the party accept a vice-presidency of
the Reichstag and calls on the congress to
disassociato Itself from the "endeavors
fo replace the well-tried tactics and class
conscious warfare of the proletariat
against the capitalistic policy of recon
ciliation with the existing order of
things."
The consequence of such a policy, the
resolution says, will be to convert social
democracy, which Is revolutionary In the
best sense of the term, since It alms at the
transformation from a capitalist to a
socialist state, into a party content with
mere reforms of the existing system. The
resolution also instructs the Sorlnlist
members of the Reichstag to employ their
increased power ruthlessly in combating
militarism, naval Increases, colonial ex-
Danslon and thf n-r?11l "trnrlrt Tinllrv
and to farther political freedom and the
inierests oi me working classes."

MAKE MONEY IN APPLES
ROGUE RIVER VALLEY FARMERS
PROSPER.
Fruit That 3Iade Oregon Famous
Brings Good Prices and Has
World-Wide Market.
-
John D. Olwell, a well-known apple
grower of Central Point, Jackson County,
has been in the city several days attend
ing to private business and Lewis and
Clark matters. Mr. Olwell is a member
of the lower house of the Legislature,
and has charge of the horticultural de
partment of the 1905 exposition. He Is a
young man and is one of the very fore
most figures In the apple industry' In Ore
gon. "The apple market Is strong and active
just now," said Mr. Olwell last night be
fore going to the carnival. "There is a
good "market for all the apples Rogue
River produces. At -what prices? About
51.50 a box for Jonathans, Newtowns and
Spitzenbergs.
"I am Informed that Hood River grow
ers are selling Spitzenbergs for 52 a box
and Newtowns for $1.60. The dlsDarlty
between Hood River and Rogue River
Is only apparent, however. The Hood
River boxes are larger than ours and
consequently are quoted higher in the
market But the fact is that prices at
both places are on the same level. Our
boxes are the California size.
"Rogue River orchards will export
about 150 carloads of apples this season.
Our orchards of 160 acres will yield be
tween 50 and 55 carloads. Rogue River Is
fast bcqomlng one continuous apple
orchard. The valley is 25 or SO miles long
and six or seven miles wide. Farmers
have been setting out 1500 acres of" trees
every year for the past several seasons.
"Apples are good money makers. T,his
fact strongly impresses farmers up our
Lway. The result is Just as I have said-
apple acreage is growing fast It won't
bo long before all parts of Rogue River
valley, which are adapted to apple culture,
will be supporting orchards.
"As I have already said, the fruit is
In strong demand. Three buyers from
London have been with us, also two from
New York and one from Chicago. Do I
think prices will advance? I can't say
as to that Such speculation is too much
of a gamble. But I am quite assured of
this, prices will not be lower this year.
Our crop we have not yet sold.
bergs will begin next month. Just now
we are gathering Jonathans. Colorado
produces great quantities of Jonathans,
but Oregon's ripen three -weeks earlier
nnd therefore are not much In competition
with Colorado." ,
The difference between Newtowns and
Spitzenbergs, Mr. Olwell explained as
coming from the peerless quality of Ore
gon Spitzenbergs. These apples have a
character all their own and are in a class
all by themselves in the world's markets.
"They are produced," said Mr. Olwell,
"only In Rogue River and Hood River
valleys and nowhere elso In the world.
Oregon Newtowns are very fine fruit, un
excelled anywhere, but the same variety
Is grown in California and other places."
Mr. Olwell said that Oregon farmers
need have no fear of over supplying the
world's markets with their apples. De
mand, he said, would grow with the out
put and he could see no. limit to It
"Oregon apples," he remarked, "ave a
fine reputation In the world's trade. That
reputation has been won by Rogue and
Hood Rivers.
"Some time ago a commission mer
chant of Portland in a newspaper in
terview stated that the apple Industry Is
on the decline from codlln moth. Now I
want to say that that man knew neither
the business of growing apples nor the
business of selling them. He must have
got. his apples somewhere In Willamette
Valley where the codlln moth Is allowed
complete domination by many farmers.
Only shlftlessnes"s gives -way to codlln
moth. Up our way we don't tolerate the
pest A visitor In this State who has
heard the fame of Oregon apples and
who sees the pest-ridden trees of the
Willamette Valley can't understand how
the fine apples are produced.
"Growers should not forget to save
samples of their fine apples for the St.
Louis Exposition next year. I find them
prone to neglect this duty. I call It a
duty because Oregon should certainly be
represented by the very best apples that
grow from Its soil. If the fruit is put
away in storage this Fall it will be In
good shape for exhibit next Spring. Ye3,
you'll find that we have put away a good
display of apples, the finest on earth,
worthy In every respect of the name and
fame of Oregon."

WITH STARS FOR GUIDES.
A Device by Which a Ship's Location
at Sea May Be Taken Instnntly.
Trie stars have always been the guide
posts 61 the. sea, but only recently has,
a device been Invented by which they are
accurately identified. In an overcast sky
they, will appear for a moment and then
lose themselves behind a cloud. The mar
iner must by guess or by some diagram
of his own work out his location from
them. The new Invention consists of a
star map over which swings a transpar
ent scale, and It revolves from the point
located on the map as the North Pole.
On this scale are engraved the 'circles of
altitude and the lines of bearing. From
this map, by a slight calculation, and by
revolving the transparent scale -until it
is opposite certain figures Indicated on the
map, the ship's location can be taken In
stantly. The name of this particular star
13 obtained easily, by reference to the
nautical almanac by a guide on the chart
This seemingly simple device Is already
In use on the American line and the Red
Star line of steamers, and every new test
reports success. It is the result of many
years' study and hard labor on the part
of Dr. Geslnger, whose Idea It is. Even
after the working model had been made
and found satisfactory a difficulty arose.
It seemed impossible to duplicate by any
mechanical means the transparent Indi
cator". No engraver could be found who
was willing to undertake the work of re
producing exactly the fine lines and fig
ures on this scale, the use of which de
pended entirely on accuracy. The in
ventor Immediately went at the task of
planning a machine which would make
the 'desired lines, and after Infinite labor
he constructed a mechanical device which
engraves on a scale exactly the lines of
his Ingenious original model. This new
Invention is likely to be an added prevent
ive of accidents and delays In ocean
travel.

SENATOR SCOTT IS WORSE
Condition of West Virgininns Is

Marriage or Death.
Baltimore Herald.
When a young man has so far lost con
trol of himself that he threatens to kill
a young woman who refuses to marry
him, the woman is only Inviting trouble
when she consents to receive him, after
.such a threat or have anything further
to do with him. Threats of this kind are
not carried out at the first refusal of
marriage. When they are repeated, the
woman knows what to expect
Any woman ought to know that a man
impulsive to the verge of temporary In
sanity Is unsafe. It Is absurd to suppose
that such a creature could make a hus
band worthy of the name. No woman, no
matter how much she likes attention. Is
under the necessity -of Imperiling her life
In order to enjoy the sensation of receiv
ing a proposition of marriage from a man
who puts the alternative of acceptance or
death before her.
The proper course to pursue Is to hand
the crazy suitor aver to an officer of the
law before It Is -too late.

WAITED
And Finally Got It.
"Prior to the time Grape-Nuts food
came upon the market I had suffered ter
ribly from chronic catarrh of the stomach
and had not taken one ounce of solid
food but forced to live on liquids for up
wards of 18 months." says-a Philadel
phia man: "Naturally I was greatly re
duced physically and life was a burden
to me.
"When Grape-Nuts was first put upon
the market It seemed from Its description
that It was just what I required and had
been waiting for so I began Its use and
btgan to Improve immediately. I kept up
the use of Grape-Nuts, growing stronger
and better until my stomach finally re
covered entirely and today I can digest
any kind of food without trouble. All of
the catarrh is gone. I also feel the effects
of the food very strongly In renewed nerve
and brain force;" Name1 given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
A large percentage of all disease is
caused by Improper food and when this
wrong condition of affairs is corrected
and proper food, Grape-Nuts, Is used In
place of improper food a complete
restoration to health, brain, nerve and
physical power follows. This Is a simple

drowsiness and dizziness that so often come after eating.
S. S. S. is not only the best tonic but possesses alterative or purifying
properties, and if there is any taint, humor or poison in the blood it
searches it out, and removes it Many times a low state of health is due
to a bad condition of the blood- and can only be remedied by a blood purifier

bad digestion, or any of the symptoms of a disordered blood, nothing will
so soon put your blood in good condition, invigorate and tone up the
