CARSON CITY NAMED.
This City Will be the Scene Of State
Celebration.

AT the meeting of the delegates OF
the various unions held in Reno sun
DAY, 1t was voted to hold the big
Labor day celebration in this civ.
IL is plainly Carson's turn and, 81
though some strife has existed as to
the selection of this city as the place
1or the big time, the unions of other
towns yesterday showed their loyalty
and Carson was voted the place by
vote Of eleven to four.
The unions of Reno desired that the
celebration should be held there as
they wished to show the strength of
their organizations against the Citl-
Zen's Alliance which is rapidly gain
Ing a foothold in their city.
After the meeting was called three
of the Reno unions came over to the
side of Carson ana voted with us.
They were the Typographical, Hold
Carriers and Bricklayers.
Several addresses were made BY
prominent union men from different
Unions of the State and they were all
in the best interests of union labor
as whole and favored Carson as the
place. They claimed that the union
principles would be strengthened and
their causes joined by holding the
celebration in this city, from the mere
fact that it is our turn by custom, and
the old rule of each of the three towns
taking their turn in the observance
of the day, should be adhered to.
After considerable discussion by all
parties concerned the final vote was
taken and this city carried off the
prize
Henry Heidenreich of Carson was
then chosen permanent chairman and
M. L. Catlin of Carson, secretary
Mr. Booth was appointed president
of the day, and the Virginia City
unions were authorized to present the
name of one satisfactory to them for
grand marshal.
The appointment of the executive
committee was left in the hands OF
the chairman with the only provision
that he appoint one of the members
from Reno and another from Virginia
City.
Now, that everything is settled, and
Larson is to entertain the unions Of
the State, it is the duty of every citi
zen to get in and help the affair
along. Virginia and Reno have both
stood loyalty by us. all differences
have been wiped out, and it is oul
duty to reciprocate by giving our
visitors the time of their lives, an
show them that we have not forgOtte,
how to entertain.
So far as location goes Carson Cit
has the advantage over all the othe1
towns in the State and with litt;.
labor and expense the people of thi
city can arrange program that will
entertain and delight the many strane
ers who will be within our borders
If you as situated so you can he'll
financially, get generous, and if no
get in and boost the thing along II
every way you can, for it takes
united action to do it right.
