LABOR DAY AND LABOR SUNDAY.


classes Of society the day consecrated to the real
wealth producers of the nation. The initial action
taken, setting apart day in the. year on which
to review the activities and benecient influence Of
organized labor, occurred at the afternoon meeting
of the third day of the fourth annual session OF the
Federation of Organized Trades and Labor Unions
of the United States and Canada, October 9, 1884,
the convention being held in Schoessers Hail. Chi
cago The resolution creating Labor day was in
troduced in the convention by A. c. Cameron, dele
gate from the Chicago Trades and Labor assembly,
and follows: ~.
'EResolved, That the first Monday in September
of each year be set apart laborers national hoi
day. and that we recommend its observance by all
wage-workers, irrespective Of sex, calling, or
nationality
W. j. Hammond, representing the International
Typographical union, from New Orleans, La, was
president of this convention The accredited dele
gates to this convention numbered only twenty-six.
The Federation of Organized Trades and Labor
Unions of the United States and Canada met in an
nual convention at Columbus Ohio, December 8-12,
1886, and there joined forces with what was called
the E'Trade Union Conference and american
Federation of Labor became the official title of the
organization At this session the legislative COM
mittee, in its report to the convention, said:
'FAt the fourth session of the federation resolu-
ton was adopted making the first Monday in
September of each year labors national holiday, and
recommending it's observance by wage-workers gen.
Spouse that exceeded the most sanguine expectations
In our great manufacturing and distributing centers
thousands of workingmen marched in procession and
participated in the festivities of the picnic grounds,
where the most skilled mechanics and workers in
professions and laborers united in a common cele-
bration, exchanging friendly fraternal greetings
while they listened to the champions of labor dis
cussng the economic and political questions Of the
day. The good effects of this so we'll understood
that recommend it's general observance still
until it shall be as uncommon for man to work on
that day as on Independence day.
There is bill before congress, introduced
by Congressman Redield of New York, to make
Labor day national holiday, no action having ever
been taken by congress heretofore this subject.
Labor Sunday was first instituted by the Presby-
terrain Bureau of Social Service in 1905, the Rev.
Charles Stelzle being the originator. This bureau
has since been merged into the Federal Council Com
mission on the Church and Social Service.
At the Toronto convention of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, 1909, Secretary Morrison intro
duced resolution designating the Sunday next pre-
ceding Labor as Labor Sunday. The convention con-
Cured in the resolution. 49,
This year the Federal Council commission has
made systematic effort to have Labor Sunday gen.
orally Observed suggesting the text for all labor
sermons, Zone Days Rest in Seven for All
Workers.

On the Eve of the Coal Convention

belief prevails now in the hard coal
region that the r.oting which has occur
red in several places. with deadly results,
will have the unusual effect of causing
the miners at the convention to be held
tomorrow at W:lkesBarre TO accept the
proposed agreement. II was at first
feared that the outbreak of disorder. with
the consequent summoning of the state
police and the exchange of shots, caus-
ing the death of a man and boy, would
so embltter the mine workers that they
would surely reject the agreement and
so prolong the strike. But the truth
seems to have reached a large number Of
the men that the disorders are the work
of a new factor. which has sought to in
terject itself into this field. the Industrial
Workers of the World. an organization
virtually pledged to lawlessness as a
means of forcing a new adjustment be-
tween capital and labor. The agents of
this organization have been engaged in
the anthracite field for some months, at
first secretly and later more openly, and
now with little or no concealment of their
design. to capture the mine workers or
ganization for their own. They have
wrought upon the excitable natures of
the foreign miners and have persuaded
large numbers OF the people to arm them
selves against what they term the MUIR
derous hostility of the state police. Now
q reaction seems to have set in, on the
part of the more sober-minded and in
telligent of the workers, and at tomor-
rows convention the result of these con-
dieting clements will show in the vote TO
