LABOR DAY IN OGDEN.
A Bigger Day Than Any During the Late
Carnival.

Yesterday was without doubt the grand
est day in the history of Ogden. The car
nival which was held here in July was
thought to be a great demonstration, but
the gathering of yesterday was far super
Tor in many respects. The true spirit of
Americanism existed here, and the pro-
gramme was rendered far more impressive
than that given by the royal party which
visited US in July.
The day dawned cool and pleasant, and
old sol rose above the Wasatch range and
exclaimed to the laboring men of Utah that
nature would give them all the assistance
possible in carrying out the festivities of
their annual holiday.
1t was nearly o'clock when the differ
ent unions of this city, all dressed in glow
ing regalia, gathered at the carnival palace,
and marched to the depot to receive the or
PLANTATIONS from Salt Lake.
The procession then formed on lower
