Attention was called to the fact that this was a bare

Spokane. In explanation, the Bohrnstedt company writes
as follows from Minneapolis under date of Feb. 9:

.your experience is such that you will realize that during

turned out not io be true, and while technically it could be
called by others 'A bare-faced lie,' still at the time you
published it you believed it to be the truth.

we are perfectly willing to acknowledge it, as we will be

Heretofore tho proceedings of the
grand jury hns boon a consideration

fering severely from frost bites.
Said Captain O'Brien: "The Far
allon went on tho reef in a blinding
snowstorm durintr which we were un-
lished it undoubtedly got the matter mixed up with the fact
that Lane county secured first honors at Albany's big
apple fair.
"You will notice that, while Lane county did not have
an exhibit at Spokane, it is undoubtedly in a class with
Medford, because we presume that Medford was repre
sented at AJbany, therefore, Lane county has no need what
ever of taking a.backseat anywhere, and we shall continue
to boost Creswell, Lane comity and Lane county apples,
just as hard as we can, but we assure you that we would
not credit anything to Lane county which sliould not be
credited to it, nor will we in any way speak disparagingly
of any other section of Oregon, because we realize, as you
undoubtedly realize, that it helps no one to knock any par
ticular bcchon. '
"The A. C. Bohrnstedt company makes a standing of
fer that anyone who purchases fruit land on any of its rep
resentations made in its advertising and afterwards finds
that these representations are not true, will not only have
their money refunded, but also be reimbursed for their ex
penses in making the personal examination, as well as pay
them for the time spent in making the investigation.
"We may make mistakes. We. are willing to make

Rather lame. The ad. 'instead of being published "two
or three times" was run at least a month to our certain
knowledge. How much longer, we do not know. The
Bohrnstedt company evidenty take the Eugene papers,
.uu bu wouiu nave authentic 'information had Lane count v
uuweu iirsr prize at Spokane over all other states." Be
sides the awards of the Spokane Apple Show were uubliflh
d in all newspapers of the country as well as by the Eu
gene papers, and made the subject'of extended illustrated
aracies in ail me horticultural papers of the nation.
"Albany's big apple fail'" was a purely local affair, not
even a stato-wide display, let alone a national show. It
was not to be compared with the Spokane show, and such
uuiuparison is ansurd.
The clipping sent by, Mr. Bohrnstedt concerningsthe
uujr ayjjw llur distinctly states that "Besides Lane.
"T.J51 l0n couimes iJlk and Linn had creditable
