It was also agreed that any merchant who desired to partici- pate in the float section should be in- vehicle presented creditable appear ance, as it is not desired that disrep- utable. looking floats or vehicles shall be in the line. Individuals and fraternal orders were also invited to enter the parade with decorated car riages or other vehicles.
 The matter of securing an extra train to run from Camden, leaving that city at o'clock in the morning of September 1, was brought up and discussed. It was agreed that if 100 citizens of Camden would pledge their attendance here on that day. to do honor to their fellow tOwnsman, Governor George w. Hays, who will deliver an address at the Elks Thea tre, and to enjoy the day as guests of Pine Bluff, that the special train would be run. This train will be scheduled to leave Camden at 6 o'clock in the morning and will re- turn that night. leaving Pine Bluff at 10 or II o'clock, thus allowing the people at Camden, Eagle Mills, and other points along the route to spend the day in this city and return to their home that night
 Letters were read from both local agents of the railroads, MT. Dickey, of the Cotton Belt, and Mir. Atwood, of the Iron Mountain, each offering to do anything in his power to pro- mote the Labor Day celebration. In the event that sufficient number of people will pledge their attendance, these gentlemen will put the matter up to the respective departments of their roads and will assist in arrang- ing for the special and a convenient l schedule.
