prominent lawyers who had been re.

s = Mary, who died
in infancy. Vice President Fairbanks,
members of the cabinet and many men
and women of prominence took part in
the parade which preceded the unyeil-
ing. Taking the character of McKin-
ley as his text, the president said it
would be disaster to the couAtry to
adopt ian attitude of hatred and envy
toward success worthily won, toward
wealth honestly acquired" He added
that there was only one other thing as
mportant-namely. the war upon Chi
canery and wrongdoing, which are
peculiarly repulsive when exhibited by
men who have no excuse of want, of
poverty, of ignorance, for their crimes"
In their own interest these men should
seek by the conduct of their lives to
build up respect for the law. But he
drove home the idea that the man of
wealth must have the same protection
as the poor man.
Rooseveit's Mississippi Trip.
At Keokuk, Ia, before starting on his
500 mile journey down the Mississippi,
the president proclaimed that there
would be no retreat in his war upon
the illegal corporations no matter if it
should hurt business. He admitted
that his policy might have been a con-
tributory cause of the financial de-
preston, but denied again that it was
mainly responsible. AT any rate, it

ing sections of Washington and trusts
that he will form profitable connec-
tions, as we believe that it will be to
the advantage of every grower in the
state of Washington to have the Wash
ington apples exploited in Mr.. Whites
thorough manner in the great markets
of the Atlantic coast cities, and espec-
tally in London and in France and
Germany, with whose markets Mr..
White is thoroughly familiar and has
been identified with them for forty
years or more.
Mr.. White says that with proper de-
velopment the foreign markets will
pay considerably better prices for the
fancy fruits of Washington than the
local markets will. His reason for
this is that there is a certain amount
of fruit of inferior quality which must
be disposed of on the local markets.
Only the highest quality of fruit is

placing the fruits of the Pacific North
west in large quantities in the markets
of the Atlantic coast cities and Europe
The Ranch knows of number of in
stances of this sort, and now it has
to tell of the coming to the Pacific
coast of a man who is probably the
biggest apple dealer in the world.
w. N. White, of the famous New
York firm of w. N White e Co., who
last year shipped 10000 barrels or
over 100000 boxes of apples to Europe,
in addition to disposing of vast guam
titles in Boston, New York and other
cities of the Atlantic seaboard, is now
in the Pacific Northwest for the pur-
pose of looking over the fruit situation
in this section of the country, prepar-
atory to making plans for handling
the apples and other fruits of our or
chards in the highest priced markets
of the world. Mr.. White is now in
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1907-08-15

Eastern Washington, where he will
visit Yakima, Sunnyside, Wenatchee
and other famous fruit-growing coun-
tries and will see many of the growers
personally.
Mr.. Whites business trip to the
Pacific coast at this time is one of the
results of the Portland Exposition.
When he visited the exposition two
years ago he was very much impressed
with some of the splendid exhibits of
Washington fruits, particularly ap-
pies and pears, and he resolved at that
time that a country that could grow
such fruit as that was worth while in
vestigating. The Washington Spitz-
enbergs, Winesaps and Yellow New
towns, which he saw at the exposition,
he said, were the finest he had ever
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1907-08-15

selected for export as this is the only
fruit worth while exporting and the
only fruit that will stand up under the
long shipments. The local markets
with no such cheaper fruit offered will
scarcely pay the price for the higher
grade of fruits, at least the consumers
who will are few and far between. AS
a consequence, he thinks that the
growers of the highest quality of ap-
pies can get at least 81 box more
on the foreign markets where there is
nothing but the finest fruit sold, than
they can on the local markets where
there is so much competition.
Speaking of the various apples pre-
ferred on the different markets, Mr..
White says that the American thinks
more of the Big Red Apple than the

from the famous Stewart ranch at
Medford, Ore.
Mr.. Whites entire career has been
one of pioneering. He landed and sold
the first Tasmanian, Australian and
New Zealand apples in the English
market in 1888. This year there were
over 100000 cases of the same apples
imported into England. He also intro
duced the Cape fruit to the English
market and several other well known
fruits from various countries.
Now he has come after the Wash
ington apple, claiming that there are
no finer apples grown than the Wash
ington Newtowns, Spitzenbergs, Wine
saps and other winter varieties.
The Ranch wishes Mr.. White every
success in his visits to the fruit-grow-

seen and would bring fancy prices in
the markets of New York and Euro
pean cities where such varieties are
always wanted, and he determined at
that time to make a more extensive
tour of this country and arrange with
the farmers for the handling of their
fruits for those markets.
w. N. White is known all through
the United States and Europe as "The
Apple Man" He has been in the bust
ness for forty years and for thirty
years was the leading auctioneer of
London. 1t was he who first intro
duced the now famous and widely used
California fruits to the English mar
ket The first carload of California
oranges and the first Watsonville ap-
pies were sold by him in London away
back in the eighties. Mr.. White also
lays claim to having sold the first
Oregon apples in London. These were

gAJ ASHINGTON and Oregon apples
~ are raDidly becoming recognized

WAI ASHINGTON and Oregon apples
" are rapidly becoming recognized
as the finest in size and quality
that are produced in the world. This
fact is evident in the demand which
has arisen for them in the high-class
markets of New York, London, Paris,
Berlin, in Australia, Denmark and
other important cities and countries
far removed from the orchards where
these world-sought apples are raised.
1t certainly is tribute to the quality
of the fruit of the Pacific Northwest
when the big dealers and exporters
from New York and Chicago become
interested enough to make special
trips thousands of miles to look over
the situation here and form connec-
tions and make plans preparatory to

Englishman. The Englishman likes
the several pippins and believes that
next to the "Coz's" orange pippin, the
Newton pippin is the best apple he
can get The pippin also has a repu-
tation in Denmark and Sweden and
many other countries and is not grown
to any extent except in many portions
OF the United States, therefore, there
is little danger of the market becom-
ing overloaded with this variety for
some years to come. The London
market is the best for the Newton pip
pin. The New York market is best
for the Winesaps and Spitzenbergs.

there was not the slightest danger.
