The Ohio Valley Trades and Labor
Assembly's Labor Day general commit
tee held It's eighth and last meeting yes
terday afternoon, and concluded all ar
rangements for che celebration Of Labor
Day next Saturday at the state fair
grounds. A. L. Bauer presided and
there was large attendance Of mem-
mers OF the committee.
The several subcommittee reported
progress in furthering arrangements for
the celebration.
There had been such heavy demand
for tickets of admission that another
supply was ordered secured.
The dining hall privilege is to be
awarded to Mrs. Rina Gaughan, by
the privilege and bar committees,
provided satisfactory agreement can
be made.
At this point there was spirited dis
cusslon regarding just what the band
hired for Labor Day is to do and what
it is not to do. A delegate wanted the
band stationed at Abe corner of Tenth
and Main streets at p. m. to stir up
Interest and draw the crowd for the
start of the Labor Day road race. The
musicians union delegates said this
would involve an extra charge, and as a
result Of this assertion. the old bone Of
contention that has for it's basis the
claim that the musicians pull" the as
sembly's leg flguratively speaking on
every possible occasion. The discussion
waxed warm, and one of the musicians,
in his efforts to emphacIse his remarks,
used the llttle word that sometimes fg-
ures us "d-n" in print. To this, the
Hon. Gabriel Jackson, once a hod-car-
rier, and now chief cook at the munich
pal workhouse. objected, and wanted
the offending musician fined. The storm
cloud was coming down thick and fast
until President Riley poured the oil Of
consultation upon the troubled waters.
Although the combatants did not fall
over each other In the peace making
that followed, the atmosphere was pref
ty well cleared. 1t was decided to hire
the band for street parade before the
road race, and to play at Tenth street
before the road racers start.
It was reported that the Cambridge
Labor Union would attend the Labor
Day celebration, about 200 strong, COM
ing over on special train on the Balh-
more & Ohio and returning on regular

bridge reception committee was named,
which will meet the visitors at the Bal
titnore & Ohio station. The committee
is composed Of Ned Sims, A. Z. Sum
mers and Edward Dittman.

ers, and 1t was said the LaughlIn and
