GIVES OPINION.
Customs 0fticial Clears Misunderstand-
ing Regarding German Agreement,

NEW YORK, Nov. l2--Speaking at
the annual conference Of local appraisers,
in session here. Assistant Secretary oi
the Treasury James b. Reynolds, l,st
back from special tariff inquiry in
Europe, took the opportunity to clear
up for the benefit Of the appraisers a
great deal Of the existing misunder
standing about the German agreement.
Mr., Reynolds made a clear and un.
equivocal statement as to what was ex.
pected OF the officers in making ap,
praisements under this treaty and he
took particular pains to bring out the
fact that the agreement applies to
other countries as well as to Germany.
This is the first proaouncement from a
high official. souice as to an opinion
which has long prevailed in customs
circles, namely, that since the United
States cannot grant to one country com.
mercial privileges which Is denied to
another, no other document outside Of
the German agreement Is necessary TO
secure to France. Austria. or any other
country the same concessions as to
export, price, etc, that have been grant,
ed to Germany.
Besides the official expression Of opin.
ion to the appraisers Mr.. Reynolds
in an interview later said the admins.
tration had always regarded the treaty
as nothing more or less than an inter.
probation OF the customs administrative
act; and that the view accepted in some
quarters that the agreement is a series
Of special concessions. to Germany. Is
sntiIely erroneous. Moreover, the ad,
ninistmtion fully intended that the one
agreement should stand for all coun.
ries.

THE OREGON APPLE.

What the ruby is to Burmah, the pearl
to Ceyion. the diamond to Natal. gold to
the Caucasus. the great. red, flower
favored apple is to Oregon! Nowhere
! else in the favored realms of distinctive
production does this fruity staple grow
as it does in its valley y-lairs here.
Unblemished. sueculent, crisp, ample

its fellow the world over to meet its at
tributes Of hue, taste and size. and

There are some things in this world
that furnish forth their excellence and
value upon mere sight. and the Oregon
apple is in this class, along with the
sight-draft. the bill Of exchange and
other spot-credits, we all know of; and
there are few of them that yield more
kinds Of qualification than this superb
fruit. AL
The wonder of this staple is that 1t

makes people marvel since it cannot be
readily conceived; no one seems to real

history confirms it. as does the worlds

THE pINKERToN.

Whenever one reads Of the great Pink
erton agency for the detection and
punishment of crime, there is the ever
present note of dread, of hatred, of
yengefulness, on the part Of the people
lying for the time, under the stress Of
the agency's manipulation; and this is
especially true wherever organized labor
has come in legal conflict with the de-
tectiye bureaus such as this.
1t is the simplest Of all truths that
the man or organization abiding within
the law has nothing to fear from the
Pinkertons nor any other @man-catch-
ing outfit. The trouble is that some
men will not proceed along prescribed
and acceptable courses for the justifca-
tion they are after and are entitled to;
