by Master Abe Grow, a lad 10 years
old, on the "Eight-hour Day, Its Origin
and the Results Derived Therefrom."
His speech was full of thought and
clearly portrayed what there is in
Young America.
He was followed by John Daniels,
who has spent tifty-one years in the
mines. This veteran made telling re-
marks as to the change from the early
days of his life from working sixteen
hours a day to the present system of
eight hours and if there was a man
benefited it was the speaker in his
declining years.
Thomas Carey was the next speak
er. He dwelt largely on the achieve
ments of the United Mine Workers
that no other organization ever made.
One was the check-off system; anoth-
er was the bringing OF the operator
and miner together annually to discuss
their many grievances face to face
thereby establishing confidence in
each other which never existed before
the coming of this organization. He
closed his remarks by showing the
contrast between industry and idle,
ness. citing Spain for idleness and
America for industry. The remarks
, were well chosen and reflected great
credit on the speaker.
This was followed by a graphophone
| entertainment by Robert Foulkes ant
John Daniels, interspersed with songs
comic and sentimental, by the Welsh
people, who are at the extreme height
of their glory on this earth When
singing. This part of the program
was carried out by Messrs. Richards
Thomas, Phillips, McVeigh and 9th
ers The women served oysters ant
other refreshments to the satisfaction
of all.
The day was we'll spent by hust
ling people. All joined hands as on
person in celebrating this day whicl
is above all to the miners. AT nigh
there was grand ball in the city hal
on Main street. giving all an opportun
ity to celebrate according to their de
sires.
