LABOR DAY.

Again rolls around the day sacredly
and lawfully devoted to a recognition
Of human endeavor. The immense
army Of men and women, to whose
energy and activity is largely due,
those mighty achievements Of modern
civilization, meet today to exchange
fraternal greetings, promote a mutual
interchange Of ideas, and an increase
Of brotherly sentiment.
1.-THE banging Of the hammer,
The whirling Of the plane,
The crashing Of the busy saw,
The creaking of the crane,
The ringing of the anvil,
The grating Of the drill,
These sounds Of honest industry.
Are temporarily stilled,"
and their respective votaries, with
kindred toilers assemble to pay hon.
age to the dignity of labor. Industrial
convictions in our beloved Duluth are
rapidly conforming themselves to the
demands Of justice alike to employer
and employee. Both have their rights
and as citizens we all have great cause
for congratulation that those rights are
becoming more and more regarded.
Let our labor celebration this year If
possible, excel all it's predecessors.
Turn out with your wives and families
and celebrate the day in a manner be-
fitting so great an occasion.

HENRY GEORGES JR. ON LABOR
DAY,

Henry George Jr. made the following
statement concerning Labor Day:
Labor Day, selected by the trade
unions as their special feast day, and,
in Difference to their rising influence,
subsequently made by the states and
the federal government public holi-
day, is mile post In the progress of
the working masses. It proclaims the
strength and solidarity of unionism.
It stands monument Of contrast to
the state Of things when any organiza-
ton whatever among workers was
prohibited; when they were compelled
to enter crafts or categories Of labor,
were not permitted to change to
others, and were practically chained to
localities; when the English parlia-
ment passed acts against high wages,
and great lords and other landed ar1s-
tocrats pillaged laborers at every turn;
and when the courts ordered man
to be bored through the ear for steal
ing a trife and hanged for stealing a
sheep.
Comparing these things with condi-
tons at the opening Of the twentieth
century, all must admit that working
men have made marked progress as
to personal liberty. Therefore, in this
respect Labor Day should be feast
of gladness and rejoicing."
MAX s. HAYES.
"This is the day when organized
labor Of America should give its best
thought to make the army of peace 80
compact and invulnerable that every
attack FROM without can be- repealed
and every sortie from within can be
successful" 49,.
FRANK X. FOSTER.
Author Of 1.-The Evolution of Trade
Unionist."
each Labor Day may be reckoned
as a little peak projecting up from the
wearisome level of the wage earners'
life, from whose height the vision may
pierce to wider horizons
Let me impress upon the represent
tatives Of the union what the limits of
their rights of picketing are. They
may place as many pickets as they
please about plants where strikes are
in progress so long as those pickets
do not throw bricks, fight or use op-
probious language. They may accost
other workers openly and appeal to
them by all methods Of persuasion
that are not threatening or coercive.

LABOR DAY OBSERVATIONS.

Labor Day in the United States is a
day Of thought and reflection. 1t has
won it's place on the statutes Of the
nation through the tireless efforts Of
men who have devoted their lives
along lines of thought beneficial to the
toiling millions Of wealth producers.
The celebration Of this day brings to
the public platform orators whose
whole being thrills with the wrongs
and injustices of labor, and awakens
in every part Of our country the crying
need for unity of action that the
worker may be free.
Upon many an open temple, with
the inverted heavens for roof, the
words Of truth are wrested from their
slumbers, and like the meteor of JUS
tice penetrates the mind Of the toilers
until the whole world reverberates
with it's claims.
Labor Day to the unthinklng is Of
little Importance above that of recre-
alton. To those, however, who have
lived in the trying school of experience
the day has much significance, for it's
very name, Labor Day." appeals to
the downtrodden and oppressed.
The working classes gather on this
day in hall and grove to listen to the
story Of wage emancipation, they con-
graduate themselves on the fact that
at least one day in the year is by legal
enactment placed beyond the greed
Of the employing master. For twenty
four hours they can proudly hold their
heads aloft and feel that Labor Day is
one of freedom.
to rebuke the earnest work Of thous-
ands Of faithful and far-seeing friends
Of labor; it is am acknowledgment
that "the working classes do not know
what they want and justifies this Oft
repeated cry Of the enemies Of labor.
Labor Day is the rift in the clouds
Of economic inequality, and should be
held dear by every man, woman and
child that must labor for an existence.
1t is the one day set apart to point to-
ward the goal of improvement, and as
the years roll on it will aid in bringing
together in one common bond the
workers Of the world, that they may
share in the rapid advancement of in
dustrial conditions.
Let every one in Duluth and
throughout Minnesota join in making
this day one that will long be remem-
bered, impress it upon yourselves, and
your children, that they may continue
in it's celebration from year to year
until the glad tidings Of economic
equality will be written in the hearts
of all mankind and peace and good
will shall reign upon this grand old
earth forever.

The attacks upon Bryan for having
voted for weaver in 1892 still continue.
Yet it is known that he voted that way
as tens of thousands did after the Dem
ocratic candidates for Presidential
Electors had been withdrawn in his
state, by special request of the Nation
al Democratic Committee, to, take the
state from the Republicans and 50 aid
in the election Of Cleveland. In 1892,
the Democracy had no hope Of carry
ing Nebraska. therefore, a vote for the
Populist candidate was the best, if not
the only way there, to help defeat the
Republican candidate. ;,

THE NATIONALITY OF LABOR
UNIONS,

Labor unions are national in the
truest sense of the word. Their idea
Of nationality makes it the best and
foremost growth Of the thoughtful
mind Of the century, treading under
foot caste and condition, and for the
elevation Of the race, and the per-
petuity Of free institutions, unites men
of all races, religions. and languages
brothers. The intelligent, thoughtful
and determined activities of such
union are invincible.

California labor unions are still fight

the situation says:
Presumably, the California Promo

and in fact creating, large surplus of
labor in this state and in bringing the
cheap-labor employers ideal of a soup

thing like the following:.
Unskilled labor is sure of employ
ment, at from $3.50 to $1,000 day pick

from September to November, inclusive
packing grapes at So a day. There is
employment waiting for 1000 unslzilled

The state of Idaho owns vast amount
of land suitable only for grazing purposes
and the state land department wishes
ranchers and stockmen to know that all

ested in having lis possessions become as
remunerative as possible, as the rental
money is apportioned semi-annually
among the schools of the state.
In almost every locality in the state
are school sections or other state lands
than cae be rented at from 10 to as cents
per acre. Under the law one person can
not lease more than $40 acres. A lease
may be taken for any number of years up

moved or sold to a successor at its expir-
alton.
Applications TO lease are made to the
