datiOn to Cost From $500 to
S2,JO0-TO Refill Hole.

$4,000 The board Of supervisors
at the closing session yesterday
afternoon authorized the clerk to
issue warrants approved by the
Jail committee for the work.
1t is the intention of the Jail
committee TO utilize inc architect 3
plans already prepared by select
ing a new site of the required size,
and, further. it is planned to make
use of the material taken from the
abandoned site. which under exist
ing prices would command a much
larger figure than the original
cost
Supervisor Graflund told the
board that the work of removing
the foundation is to be started i'm
mediately
Contractors for work ard mater
ial began to press their claims tor
money as soon as it was learned
the foundation was to be removed.
The claims had been allowed by
the board but had not been paid
by the treasurer, litigation being
feared.
Supervisor Child made the sug-
gestion that all matters pending
might be cleared away if the board
assembled in a special mid-sum-
mer session, when the Jail site
committee might have some recon-
mendations to make He said that
representative of tbs complainant
in the Jail litigation were under
stood to have no objection to the
payment OF the claims, as soon as
the county had obtained a site
elsewhere.
Supervisor Schillinger suggest
ed that a meeting might be held
the day the supervisors bring in
the returns of the special election
for states attorney. The sugges-
ton was made with view to ad-
vising the clerk as to the most de-
sirable time for calling the meet
ing, provided the Jail site commit
tee has a report formulated
Money for Rewards.
At the suggestion of Sheriff John
G. Miller, that it was desirable to
secure the return of the two men
under Indictment for the murder
of Sheriff Jacob Wigers, both of
whom escaped from the Mercer
county Jail, the board appropriated
$1,000 for use in offering rewards.
An additional election precinct
was added to Hampton township
upon authorization of the board,
and the border of the goth precinct
in Rock Island was changed from
Ninth to Eleventh avenue.
New election judges were select
ed for the year, but the old ones
will serve at the primary election

send notices to the new ones by
that time. The new judges will
serve at the special election July
Is, however.
A committee composed of Super
visors Grafiund, SchiIlinger and
Wilke was appointed by Chairman
Upton to confer with the United
States Housing corporation repre-
sentatives with reference to pay
ment of county tax, it having come
to the attention of the board that
an effort is being made to avoid
county tax on properly occupied
by government houses. although
settlement is being made with the
cities for services rendered by the
city departments in lieu of tax.

Every .hing that experience or en-
thusiasm could suggest has been done.
The commit tee, Grand Marshal and
his assistants have all completed their
arrang> nents, and nothing remains
hut that each single unionist does his
duty. rhe orders of the Grand Mar
siaal, If ODE. ed, will avoid any delay
or mistake. BY consulting the order
of organization all persons can at
glance ascertain their respective
forming places and position. Every
thing promises to excel. The uniforms
will be as attractive and novel as can
be designed. With the exception of
the men who may have to work, every
union expects to have every member
in the line of march. The building
trade unions are putting forth special
efforts to make showing out of the
ordinary. The same is true of the
laetal trades. The machinists alone
expect to have more than 1900 men
ir line.
Subtract from the citizenship of this
city the thousands who will parade
Monday, and Hamilton would be like
deserted mining camp of the far
west. Two million unionists will pa
rade throughout the country next
Monday. Hamilton must not be out
done. 1t is up to each and every one
cf you, brothers and sisters, to get
IN line on time and march to the glory,
love and hope of organized labor.
Grand Marshal and Assistants.
For Grand Marshal of the parade,
Stanley Ogg, of Iron Molders' Union
No. 68, and delegate to Trades and
Labor Council, was unanimously
chosen. His chief aides are Harry
Hensel of Iron Molders' Union No. 68,
and Joseph Flynn, of Machinists' I'm
ion No. 241. To assist them there
win be a marshal representing every
union in line.

which will be held in Trades Council
hall this evening. For several months
this committee, consisting of repre-
sentative from every local union in the
city, has be IN busily engaged in plan
ming for this occasion. Subdividing
themselves into different committees,
every detail of the event has received
the utmost scrutiny, and as in former
years the patrons of the enterprise
will be given a day of entertainment
for a nominal admission charge that
will be equalled nowhere in the state
of Ohio.
From the time that Grand Marshal
Stanley Ogg gives the forward
march" command at 9 o'clock in the
morning and the parade moves, until
long after the goodnight" fash has
been made by the fireworks display in
the evening: the day will be filed with
unalloyed pleasure for the guests of
the trade unionists Of Hamilton. For
ulOAC tl4dI unity years &@apOA ASd9
celebrations have been given in this
ciry. Many of the old timers will re-
member the great parade and celebra-
tions thirty years ago under the aus
plces of the knights of Labor, when
thousands of workers came here on
great excursion trains which were run
from all the cities within a radius of
100 miles. Quite a number of these
old timers will take part in the big
parade of this year.
The prestige of these events have
spread far and wide, and it is ques
tionabla whether in any other city in
the nation the size of Hamilton the
people turn cut in larger numbers to
celebrate labor's holiday. 1t has been
no uncommon thing for the committee
to report more than $4,000 persons
have passed through the various en-
frances to the fair grounds num-
Der equal to more than half of the

company of Reading, who say that the
display is to be one of the handsomest
shown by tie company this season.
Get in Line.
Union labor of Hamilton owes it
to itself, to It's opportunity and to its
enemies, to make next Monday
mighty demonstration. Every union
wage Garner, man or woman, should
regard it as privilege to take part,
as a matter of pride and as chal-
lenge to non-unionists and the Gree
labor advocate.
Every local organized worker should
add his or her mite by presence and
example to swell the marching hosts,
end impress the noble dignity and the
moral worth of the trade-union move
ment upon all beholders. In the in
,lustrial world today men and women
need each other more and more, and
the point has been reached where la
Dor must find itself shoulder to shoul-
der II the gre at struggle for economic
justice. AS you march down the street
there il burning within every breast
a feeling of brotherhood, a brother
hood whose trade is not murder or
waste, but increase, fruits, life God
made tie cave and man made the
II ansion. Non-union workers are
living in cave. Only through union
ism rnsn-wrought cooperation can
and do the workers live in decent
quarters and command fair share
Of the modern necessities OF life.
Therefore, Join in the parade. AMI

bers of the committee which has ar
ranged for the big event set for Mon
day. President Brown certainly used
splendid judgment and is to be con-
graduated on the appointments he
made of his committee this year.
No committee ever worked harder
nor more faithfully than the commit
tee which has arranged for this years
event and they are deserving of the
cooperation of every member of or
ganized labor in the city. Every little
detail has been worked out and all
that remains to make the celebration
a bigger success than those of the
past is the help of every single union
ist and good weather.
The committee as selected by Presi-
dens Brown Is composed of a repre-
sentative of every local union in the
city and is as follows:
Brewers, Albert Brown
Bartenders, Arthur Burns.
BARRIERS, Adam Westrick.

population of the city and it is be-
Icved this number will be exceeded
this year.
The Outing.
The outing this year, which will be
held at the Butler County fair grounds
will be the biggest thing of the kind
ever before attempted by local organ
ized labor. Every form of entertain
ment that could be thought of and Sc
cured will help make the day one long
to be remembered. The committee in
charge of the affair has spared nc ex-
Tense and trouble to make this years
picnic gala event.
There will be band concerts all day
and evening by bands galore, games
and contests of all descriptions for
young and old; the old time mer"y-go-
round will be there for the amusement
of the little ones, and for many of
the big ones too. and mo ~ otirr
amusements too numerous to men
ton. The country store, always big
feature, will be bigger and better thar
ever. Every local has tsken spe-
cial interest in this big ee,tura anl
all members have contributed gener-
ously.
The Fireworks.
The fireworks displays of former
years, always a big feature of the La
Dor Day outings Of the past, will be
surpassed by far this year. The COM
mittee decided that the display this
year should cutshine anything before
attempted in this line. More money
has been spent for the display, in
fact, almost twice as much as for any
previous Labor Day display. Many
special devices and beautiful set
pieces will be shown. The fireworks
will be furniyhed by the A. L. Due
