Labor Day Celebration at owosso, Sept.


The committee of one from each Trades
and Industrial Organization who haye the
matter in hand met at the committee rooms
In Labor Hall over the postoffice July 9th.
The reports of several delegates were re-
ceived, from the reports 1t is evident the
celebration will be grand success.
The delegates from the surrounding cities
and towns report the people are intending
to attend the celebration. The delegates
who were appointed to visit the farmers
report they were received very kindly, and
that they find the farmers organizations and
the old members of Associations that are
not meeting full of the determination to be
represented in the street procession in a
grand and becoming manner.
In such demonstrations as these every
city will tax their resources to make an
exhibition of the arts and handicraft of its
people.
The manufacturers stimulated by desire
TO show to the people the products of their
shops will do their best The merchants on
floats show the various lines of goods, the
Farmers, Mechanics and Laborers show
the products of the farm and work of their
calling.
1t is certainly hopeful sign to see the
Manufacturer, the Farmer, Merchant,
Mechanic and Laborer all uniting in this
appropriate demonstration upon this day.
The precepts and example that are shown
in this manner show the dawn of larger
intelligence, the enlargement of the sympa-
thetic nature which is surely lasting towards
better humanity, closer fraternity-in
word, better nobler destiny for man.
From the reports it is shown clearly that
Owosso will have the grandest celebration
outside of Detroit Sept. 4th.

DETROIT,

In or near a growing city like Detroit,
land is positively certain to increase
rapidly in value, and cannot fail to add
wealth to the purchaser. Every me-
chanic, laborer, merchant, clerk, or
business man, should own land. There
is not reader of this, but who may
own from one to fifty lots in Detroit,
which will pay fifty to two hundred per
cent on the money invested.
