territories have followed their example,

After Oregon, New Jersey was the
second state TO enact a law making La
Dor day what II IN, New York being
third. and the movement spreading
over the country like u prairie hre.
The first parade and picnic In 1882 was
followed by another the next year on
an enlarged scale, also on the first
Monday In September. In 1884, when
the labor unions were discussing n date
for their annual parade, George II,
Lloyd, a knight Of Labor offered a res.
olutlon declaring that the first Monday
In September be recognized as Labor
day, and steps were taken toward that
end which resulted In the establish
ment of this holiday National legisla-
tlon was invoked ard in 1894 the Dis
trict Of Columbia bill was passed and
signed by the president.
While our Labor day Is known as Pc
cullarly an American institution, at the
same time a labor festival has been an
nually celebrated for years In London,
Paris and other large cities across the
water This European festival gener~
ally occurs on the lst of May and Is
sometimes seized upon as an occasion
for demonstrations by trades unions
and similar organizations, which have
so frequently resulted in serious dis
turbances that some governments have
forbidden the celebration.
As contrasted with the American La
bor day, the European celebration suf-
fers greatly by the comparison for the
former is founded on principles diamet-
really opposed 10 those OF the latter.
Peace and good will are the guiding
motives Of the American festival and
the day Is devoted to pleasure Of the
most healthful and recreatiye sort, the
public Speeches incucate a mutual for
bearance between labor and capital as
generally understood and If politics is
treated II Is to be in q general way, so
as not TO give offense to any one.
'Those who discuss the questions OF
the hour before meetings Of Industrial
lists on that day" says Mr. Powderly,
should be educators They should BE-
teachers Of the gospel OF humanity and
its needs Those who address such
meetings are burdened with a weighty
responsibility It Is their duty to teach
a doctrine OF independence Of thought
and action"
Similar sentiments are voiced by Sen
ator Hanna of Ohio In recent address
who holds that the differences existing
between labor and capital are susceptl-
bit OF adjustment on basis Of mutual
confidence, as implied by the animatng
sentiment of Labor day
