at any previous time during the pres
ent period of Industrial revival. Pro
duction 1 taxed to it utmost. The
great railroad companies of the coun
try are planning extraordinary expen
diture for improvements which will
call for a lurge amount of extra labor,
while the congestion of traffic Is such
as to force Into employment every
available hand for which room can
be found. Labor in manufacturing
and railroading is demanding higher
wages or shorter hour with excep
tional confidence that Its place cannot
be filled and that it has but to strike
to bring employer to terms. Nor Is
this all that the farmer has to contend
against, Iu the west there has been
going on a speculation in farm lands
und the opening of new tracts to set
tlement which has caused an emigra
tion of regular farm help, tenants and
sons of farmers from the older to the
newer agricultural regions. The rail
roads have been active in forwarding
the movement, extending it southward
toward New Orleans and northward
through the lutkotas Into Canada of
fering lands on favorable terms and
transportation thereto, moving whole
villages of people, with their house
hold goods and farm implements, ns
colonies in newly settled section". The
speculative spirit of the period Is thus
not confined to stocks and trust com
binations and street railway exten
sions, but as usual at such times seizes
upon even the agricultural classes and
hurries off large numbers from estab
lished positions into pioneer land en
terprises elsewhere. It is a time of
extraordinary Industrial activity and
employment even for the tHorn period.
Labor has been taken up into the boil
ing solution, as money has been taken
up and floating capital, and the labor
market Is as tight as the money mar
ket in the more attractive lines of
employment, which do not Include the
farm. So the farmer must suffer most
from the situation.
WILD MAN OF BORNEO.

His famous Freaks.
Joaquin Miller, the California pott
uisl naturalist, was an Intimate friend
of I. T. Barium. They met abroad
many ytais ago and kept in touch un
til the great showman died. Many
are the stories which the old poet like)
to tell of his friend, "the grt Ameri
can humbug," and one of them Is the
true etory of the greatest humbug
which Barnum ever perpetrated thj
Wild Man of Boreno.
'It came about through Mr. Bar
num s love for temperance and his
great kindness of heart," said the poet.
In telling the story to a New Vork
Tribune writer. "An old tailor who
had been eviry where and seen every

iu Bridgeport, Conn., and asked him
to buy some things which he had can

tho Pacific. He was rugged, hairy

'Where have you been?" asked the
showman.
'Been to Borneo, answered the old
sailor.
'Well, you look it! Come in am

I he sailor did come In, and after
the liical begged Barnum to lock Iiiiri

Atlanta City N. J., July 13 John
B. Weber of liuffalo, N. Y., late
commlssoner of immigration at tbe
port of New York , and chairman of
the special commission authorised by
congress in 1888 to investigate la
Europe the causes iucitlng Immigra
tion to this country, was a speaker
today before the Jewish Chautauqua
on the su'iiect of "The Status of the
Jews in Russia. ''
lu bis addres-i Mr. Weber charged
the Ilusslan restrictive laws as being
resp nsible for the misery and perse
cutiori of which people read and hear,
He stated that then would ne do
peace, no substantial relief for the
sufferers until tlietota cisappearance
from Kussia of either the Jew or the
special laws direct against him.
Taking tip the laws regarding tbe
right of residence which the speaker
characterized as especially hard and
oppiessivc, he briefly sketchei the
history of the t tliclal decrees regula
ting the area within which the Jews
were permitted to live during tbe
past forty years.
Summing up tbe status of the Jew
in Russia, Mr. Weber said:
"Today he is an alien In the iaDd
Of his birth, a subject who bevrs an
undue share jf tbe burdens of good
government without tbe privileges of
its meanest citizens Fettered in
his movements, handicapped In his
vocation, restricted in his education
al opportunities, he is unable to pro
tect him self and powerless to suc
cessfully invoke the protection of the
iauthorities, a slave without the self-
;iuterest of a master to shield him
ffroni abuse he stands helpless
against brute force egged on not only
lellglous intolerance, hut by contend
ing forces that strive to strengthen
the government on the one hand and
to destrov it on the other, the Irre
pressible conflict between govern
ment by autocracy aud government
by the people. The Jew is therefore
the sport of tbe rabble the spoil of
the official, the lootTall of fanati
cism, tbe buffer against which strikes
fthe wrath of bigutry, intolerance
and savagery."
Mr. Weter asserted strongly the
moral obligation and t lie legal right
of the Ucited States to protest to
tbe Russian government against its
treatment of Jews and said:
We cannot look with uncoocero
upon the arrival of the thousands of
hunted, terror stiicken human be
ings who come to us crushed in spirit
and impoverished in substance, to
enter Inlo competition with our re
spected and self-respecting labor.
Neither is it an answer to say that
we have the remedy In or.r own
hands bv closing our ports against
these people. This would violate our
very instinct o' humanity, and would
war against the policy which bas
made this country great and prosper
ous, and which will continue to add
to our progress and prosperity, If Im
migration is conflued to normal
causes alone."
Ucferlng to a hope that a consider
able part of this stream from Russia
may be directed to other lands, Mr.
Webet quoled the statement of, an
emigrant at Kovuo:
I am going to America, for in
that direction lies hope Here I have
onlv fears to comfort me The hope
may prove delusive, but the fears are
a certainty. My great ambition is
to breathe at least once tbe free air
with which God bas blessed tbe
American people." (
. 'Thcsc," said tbe speaker, "are
tbe words of an ucculturcd Jew, and
tbese arc the sentiments In tbe heart
of every Jew in Russia."
Mr. Weber called attention to those
of tbe Jewish faltb of tbe gtave re
p nslbllltles falling upon them due
to tbe persecutions of tbelr co-religionists,
in receiving the thousands
who flee from their oppressors la
'aiding to establish them In work and
holiness so that they will become
elf-sustalning; In distributing them
so they will not by congestion be
