One Of the most important meetings
of the county Suffrage committee took
place last Monday afternoon at the "
M. c. A. auditorium, at which a large
number of the county's brightest and
brainiest women assembled for a pre-
cinct roundup"
Thirty of the city precincts reported
progress, and many of the outlying dis
tricts were represented, either by letter
president or secretary, including Pasa-
dena, MOnrovia, Pomona San Fernan-
do, Santa Monica and others, the names
of which were not given.
Mrs. Elmira T. Stephens. the presi-
her old friends and coworkers as sne
once more took the chair to open the
meeting. An important feature of the
gathering was the preparation of a reso-
luton OF fraternal sympathy to be sent
to the State Suffrage association, offer
ing warm hospitality at the committees >
headquarters to any of its members
who may visit Los Angeles. The resolu-
tion also conveyed to that body the un-
changable decision of Los Angeles coun-
ty women to remain as they have been
from the beginning of the campaign,
perfectly Independent of all other SUI
frage organizations.
The county precinct organization be-
gan in a county mass convention called
by the city local w. S. A., April 27, 1895,
and as some of the women have been
steadily yet quietly at work on this plan
ever since, and the county is leading all
others in the state in practical work of
organization, they seriously objected 10
any movement to change it by import
ing new workers who are strangers to
the way of the people in Southern Cali
fornia.
Miss Mary G. Hay of Indiana all
Mrs N. H. Blinn of San Francisco, be-
ing on short business trip in the city,
were visitors to this meeting and We're
invited to seats on the platform, and
on invitation of the committee, made a
few remarks pertinent to the occasion.

rnE JEWISH NEW YEAR
The Services VIII Open This Evening at the
Synagogue

With this evenings sunset the He
brew year 5656 will pass into oblivion,
and at the same time will begin the year
5657 from the supposed creation of Adam
according to biblical, rabbinical and
ancient Jewish calendar.
New years day will find the syna-
gogues arrayed in their best holiday at
tire and ready to greet the thousands
who will find shelter under their wing.
Religious hymns and songs of praise
will echo on all sides, and sermons will
be delivered whose purport will be to
show the right path in the new field be-
fore us. Relatives and friends will gath
er around the festive board. They will
sing praises and give thanks unto Him
VINO rules on high for the manifold
blessings that the past year brought
with it and for the pleasure of their
earthly existence; and though trouble
and care have had their full sway;
though darkness was mingled With sun
light and sorrow exercised Gas it always
does) its full share in the life of the
household, yet will the expression of
Israers resignation be Goods will be
done upon earth as it is done in heaven"

godliness. as an encouragement to work
for the welfare Of Judaism and for all
humanity. Would that in the coming
year every Israelite might be endowed
not only with worldly goods, with earth
ly wealth, with prosperity and with bod
lily health, but also with an irresistible
desire to enhance the worth and signifi-
canoe of the title, 'Israelite," by prac-
ticing our holy religion at home, by
bringing up our children as faithful
Jews, and by performing such acts only
as may render us worthy in the eyes of
God and humanity. Let every Israelite
who attends the synagogue tomorrow
evening determine to inaugurate the
new year by afliliating himself with
some congregation. Remember that the
synagogue is one of the essential and
strongest pillars in Judaism.
On the threshold of another year we
send forth heartfelt greetings of en-
couragement to the oppressed of every
race and wish them that ancient rab-
binical benediction:
"Leshanah Tovah Tik-ko-sewu."

Tomorrow is Labor day and It will be
generally observed throughout the
United States as a holiday.
Here in the city Of Los Angeles there
will be an observance Of the event such
ls has never before been seen in any
city on the Pacific coast.
For some weeks past committees OF
the Council Of Labor have had the de-
tails and arrangements necessary for
the celebration in charge and they have
now completed everything.
Every one Of the twenty-seven trades
unions of the city will be represented
in the parade. Many Of the trades will
be out in uniform. Forty sailors, repre-
senting the Sailors union of San Pedro,
will be here to participate and all told
there will be over 1000 men in the line.
The parade will move promptly at 10
q. m.
The following is brief history Of La
Dor day, written by Capt. F. B. Colver,
editor of the Labor World:
1.-THE American Federation of Labor,
in 1886, decided to set apart one day in
the year when the hosts Of labor could
meet and celebrate the struggles and
victories Of organized labor. BY taking
retrospective view of the past, the
workingman's heart would be cheered
and spurred on to renewed effort.
Colorado was the first state to enact
the measure into law and make Labor
day a legal holiday. Other states follow
ed in quick succession, until 1t became
general throughout the United States.
The observance of the day by labor
unions has gradually increased, and has
reached such scale that three months
time are actually necessary to make
preparations for the great event.
Labor day occurs on the first Monday
in September Of each year. In Califor-
MIA, owing to the fact that Admission
day occurred on the 9th of September,
Labor day was set for the first Monday
in October. The labor unions, how
ever, refused to recognize 1t, and 1t is
only observed by the banks. An attempt
