.LABOR'S OWN DAY
First Monday in September Is
Legal Holiday in Almost
Every State Now.

"HE American Federation Of La
Dor held an annual convention
at Columbus, O.. December 8-12,
1886. At this session the officers re-
ported the following:
'At the fourth session of the fedora
tion resolution was adopted making
the first Monday in September of each
year labOr'S national holiday and rec
Ommending it's observance by wage
workers generally throughout the
country. This met with response that
exceeded the most sanguine expecta
tions. 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 pro
fessiOnS and labOrerS united in a com
mon celebration, exchanging friendly
fraternal greetings while they listened
to the champions Of labor DISCUSSING
the economic and political questions of
the day. The good effects Of this are

it's more general observance still until
it shall be as uncommon for d man to
work on that day as on independence
day."
Nearly all Of the states in the Union
now have statutes making the first
Monday in September a legal holiday,
thus observing Labor day.
In order that there be no misunder-
standing with reference to the action
Of congress in enacting legislation
upon this subject it is well to state
that the law passed by congress June
%, 1894, described above, as making
Labor day a national holiday only pro-
vided that Labor day should be OBJ
served in the District of Columbia, as
well as the then territories.
Labor day was established in the
various states and in the order and on
the dates named below: 1887, February
21, Oregon; 1887, March Is, Colorado;

Smuggling is on the increase between
unoccupied Germany and the occupied
zones, according to recent informa-
ton received by the intelligence off
GERS of the French army occupied.
French army officers say that women
have been particularly active of late,

where she purchased 100 dozen
knives over the Alsatian border with
out paying duty, and afterward sold
the knives to a French dealer for
twenty francs each. Returning to
Germany, the woman said she ex-
changed the French money for marks,
