THE OREGON APPLE. , What the ruby ia to Burmab, the pearl to Ceylon, the diamond to Natal, gold to fiht Caucasus, the great, red, flower t flavored apple is to Oregon! Nowhere ' else in the favored realm of distinctive .production does thia, fruity staple grow aa it does in ita valley-lair here. Unblemished, succulent, crisp, ample In bulk, exquisite in color, it challenge! n teiiow toe worm over to meet ks at tributes of hue, taste and size, and stands unrivalled in all nature's suc cessful attempts to do the real artistic thing So popular is it out here there would be no surprise manifested if it were made a "oat currency" for the term of "stringency" now runing It already stands for 17,000,000 of good hioney ia Oregon and is regarded as a bankable asset everywhere. There are some things ia this world that furnish forth their excellence and .Value upon mere sight, and the Oregon , apple Is in this class, along with the aight-draft, the bill of exchange and other pot-credits, we all know of; and there are few of them that yield more ' lands of gratification than this superb ire :'u: -i ', '".!JI The wonder of this staple is that it geta finer year by year, a fact that makes people marvel since it cannot be readily eoncieved; no one seems to real ize the possibility of improvement, yet history confirms it, as doea the world's market reports. ' . . 0 i ' OIL WANTED I Clatsop needs oil, and gas, along with other things that make life smoother and easier and less grating. We believe she haa both these commodities in vast quantities and trust the present well directed search for them will be success ful; since such a discovery would miti gate the money-pressure above ground. 1 A few hundred thousands barrels of fuel oil per day just for a starter, with millions to follow,, would smooth the way of business here notably and counter-act the sense of uneasiness prevalent in our commercial sphere. There is nothing fictitious about a flowing well of oil or a belching bore of gas. Both are staples, and both have a waiting market at their vents. They are worth going after, and once tapped are profit yielders. If we have not any- thing of the sort, that should be known also, once for all, so we can discount (the signs and go about our other busi nesses (without feeling we are neglecting a standard resource. We want to see the present effort pushed to an absolute demonstration of success or failure and the whole matter laid for all time to come, either as a patent item of wealth and commercial development or as an exploded theory that may be rationally abandoned.

Whenever one read of the great Pink erton agency for ' the detection and punishment of crime, there is the ever present note of dread, of hatred, of vengefulness, on the part of the people lying for the time, under the stress of the agency's manipulation; . and this m especially true wherever organized labor has come in legal conflict with the de tective bureaus such as this. . It is the simplest of all truths that the man or organization abiding within the lawi has nothing to fear from the Pinkertons noji any other "man-catching" outfit. The trouble is that some men will not proceed along prescribed and acceptable courses for the justifica tion they are after and are entitled to; they must reeort to devloua and forbid den line and trek justice where justice cannot possibly abide, V ; , There are group of organised labor that wer come into any sort of con tact 'With the police function of the country, public or private, and it is be cause they go about their work under the processes made and provided for them 1 for all other men. While others cannot assert themselves, in court, nor out of it, without Inviting the instant attention of every agency for the repression of crime, including the Pinkerton. The Pinkerton may haw their bad elements as well as other organisations, but neither would be effective it the law was given the ob servance that is its due. ( Organized labor in this country I powerful enough to exact anything that rightfully belongs to it if it moved with the circumspection that wins, rather than with the irresponsible and aggres sive action tbat invites a barrier-first and defeat afterward. It has yet to learn it realtive potency in the scheme of human affairs in its dealing with the law, just a it ha learned the lesson of the poll.

NBW YORK, Nov. 12.-Speklg at th annual ronfvreuce of local appraiser, in session here, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury James B. Reynold, just back from a special tariff Inquiry in Europe, took the opportunity to clear up for the benefit of the appraiser a great deal of th existing niUundep- standing about the German agreement. Mr. Reynolds made a clear and un equivocal statement as to what was ex pected of the officer in making ap praisements under this treaty and lie took particular paint to bring out the fact tbat the agreement applk to other countries a well a to Germany. This i the first pronouncement front a high official, sourVe at to an opinion which ha long prevailed in custom circles namely, that since Uie United States cannot grant to one country com raercial privilege which I denied another, no other document outside of the German agreement is necessary secure to France, Austria, or any other country the me concession a to export, price, etc, that hav been grant ed to Germany. Hcsules the official expression of opin ion to the appraiser Mr. Reynolds in an interview later said the adminit tration had always regarded th treaty at nothing more or less than an inter pretation of the custom administrative act; and that th view accepted in om quarter that the agreement is a series of special concessions, to Germany, is entirely erroneous. Moreover, the ad ministration fully intended that the one agreement should stand for all coun tries.
