ROOSEVELT OX LABOR AND CAPITAL. The address of President Roosevelt at the New York State Fair on Labor Day was characterised by perfect fairness and good sound sense. It was not only sensi ble and true, but it was fit to the occasion, and spoken at a time when the crying need for such sane words is visible on all sides. Every citizen ought to read all of it We regret that we have not space to print it here. But we may, at least, call attention to one or two striking paragraphs. The President said: "We can keep our government on a sane and healthy basis, we can make and keep our social system what it should be, only on condition of judging each man, not as a member of a class, but on his worth as a man. It is an infamous thing in our American life, and fundamentally treacherous to our institutions, to ap ply to any man any test save that of his personal worth, or to draw between two sets of men any dis tinction save the distinction of conduct; the distinc tion that marks off those who do well and wisely from those who do ill and foolishly. "There is no worse enemy of the wage-worker than the man who condones mob violence in any shape or who preaches class hatred; and Burely the slightest acquaintance with our industrial history should teach even the most short-sighted that the times of most suffering for our people as a whole, the times when business is stagnant, and capital suffers from shrink age and get9 no return for its investments, are exactly the times of hardship and want and grim disister among the poor. If all the existing instrumentalities of wealth could be abolished, the first and severest suffering would come among those of us who are at least well off at present. The wage-worker is well ofl only when the rest of the country is well off; and he can best contribute to this general well-being by show ing Banity and a firm purpose to do justice to others. "Ours is a government of liberty, by, through and under the law. Lawlessness and connivance at law breaking whether the law-breaking take the form of a crime of greed and cunning, or a crime of violence are destructive not only of order, but of the true liber erdes which can come only through order If alive to their true interests, rich and poor alike will set their faces like flint against the spirit which seeks personal advantage by overriding the laws, without regard to whether this spirit shows itself in the form of bodily violence by one set of men, or in the form of vulpine cunning by another set of men." All visitors before they see the President at Saga more Hill visit first with a secret service man. who is stationed about a hundred feet from the house. He sits in a big elk-horn chair which was given to the President on his recent Western trip, and looks like almost anybody, except the person whom most of the guests expect to see. They all look for a man with a heavy dark moustache and a glint of steel in his eye the very sleuth they've read about. Instead, they usually find a trim, well-built man who steps up to their carriage and inquires whether they have an en gagement with the President or not. , If they have, he takes their names, compares them with the names on the list which has been given to him, and, if there is no disagreement, passes them. If the visitor's haven't an appointment, he directs them to the secretary's of fice down town. Under no circumstances are cards taken in to the President unless an appointment has first been made through the executive office. In this respect it is much harder to see Mr. Roosevelt there than in Washington. A recent dispatch to the Chronicle from Pittsburg, Pa., contains some facts regarding large building en -terprises that have been discontinued until the labor conditions are more favorable. Comment is unneces sary. The dispatch says: "There is likely to be a general cessation of building operations during 1904, which will make that year memorable. The state ment of one of the largest contracting concerns in the country connected with railroad construction work is the basis for the assertion that at least $180,000,000 worth of building operations proposed for 1904 have actually been called off. The Pennsylvania Railroad, which dow has enough improvements under way and -contemplated to make an expenditure of $')0,000,000 in 1904, has decided to withdraw all of these plans; -and to do nothing more with them until there is a more placid condition of the labor market. Informa- COLLEC.K BOYS AS HARVEST HANDS. Quite a deal of fun is being poked at heroic college lads of the East, who rushed to Kjansas to enlist in the army of wheat harvesters. Those w ho have par ents have by this time returned to their homes through the kindly assistance of immediate remittances. The rest, it is said, are either walking out of Kansas, as sisted by occasional rides upon nocturnal freight train, or selling books to acquire funds to transport them to the East. The Newark News rejoices to know that these young men havo learned in a week to differen tiate between a rowing-shell and a Kansas reajnr. They havo discovered the difference between a foot ball field and a wheat-field. Their outlook upon ath letics has Wen wonderfully widened, and their grasp of the exact relation Wtween Kansas labor and Kan sas oratory is at last perfect. In addition to this, their walk home will give them striking conceptions of the real magnitude of their native land, and enable them to plunge into their studies this fall with unac customed zest. Most of them, toe, having now had a little try at the methods whereby their papas accumu lated fortunes, will be more economical in the future, which is something to be greatly desired. Tho Gal veston News adds: "Nobody is astonished to find that the college athletics tired and sickened of the wheat- field before the morning and the evening of the first day. There was little money in it, no adventure, no applause, no glory. Such is the monotonous and tire- some round ot tne wage-earner on me inrm. a college man spends for luxuries and decoration alone a week's wages in a single day. The stringent economy of it is entirely too much for him, anil when it conies to the hard work in the sun, he will do almost anything else, iucluding suicide, before he will adhere to it." STILL THEY COME. The fluctuations in the tide of immigration into this country furnish a very fair index of its material con dition. When times are good, immigrants pour in( and judged by this standard this country is now en joying an unprecedented era of piosperity. During the year ending June 30th, the number of immigrants was 857,046 a number considerably greater than during any previous year. The immigration during 1902 was abut 200,000 less than this, and the indica tions point to a further increase during the current year, lne number ot immigrants nnciuaies irom month to month, July and August being months of small immigration. Nevertheless, a comparison with the corresponding months of last year shows tho heavy increase in those now coming. On the basis of each 00 arriving during the corresponding months of last year, the figures for this year would be March, April, 132; May, 128; June, 130; July, 133. During the five months the actual increase was 115,383, or more than one-half of the total increase for the fiscal year 1902-3. In the quality of the immigrants, there is no cause for reassurance. The hardy, industrious races of Northern Europe are coming in decreased proportion; the undesirable races of Southern .and Eastern Europe are, coming in large numbers. From Austria-Hungary, Italy, and Russia 43,:19 immi grants came last year, an increase of 9,885 over 1902, the greatest increase Wing from Austria-Hungary, while there was a decrease of C30 from Italy.
