LABOR DAY MESSAGE
Head American Labor Federation
Addresses The American People

Head American Labor Federation
Addresses The American People
Washington, September 4.-Only
by organization and none organiza-
ton can the workers of America
secure a full measure of economic
justice. President Samuel Gompers
of the American Federation Of La
Dor declared last night in a Labor
day message addressed to the
American people.
A four year "anti labor, war" Mr..
Gompers said, had demonstrated the
power Of the trade union to pro-
tect it's members against organized
employers, before whom unorga-
nized labor had found itself weak
ened, scattered and helpless" He
added that the time had come for
laboring men and women at last to
present "a united workers front to
the powers that prey" The message
in part follows:
"Every contest with the owners
and manipuAtors of industry accen-
tuate the truth that the workers
have but few outside their own
ranks who sympathiZe with them in
their determination to emancipate
mankind or support them in their
efforts.
1.-THE uncounted victories that or
ganized labor wins, the few tenn
porary setbacks that labor expert
ences, cry aloud the divine truth
that justice for those who toll can
only come through the workers
own efforts, their own organization,
their own persistency.
"Now is the time for the work.
ers to rally more completely under
the standard Of the union"

acrobats. A baseball ground and
football gridiron will also be laid
out North of the track stable for
! racing horses 20x700 feet will be
built. A hood or canopy will run
the full length of the building where
horses may be lead without inter
fering with the activities on the
There will be three entrances to
the grounds, great artistic stone pill
lars being used in making he en-
frances. A hedge of eleagnus, one
of the most hardy of hedge plants,
will encircle the entire grounds. The
beautiful silver foliage of this hedge
will add much to the beauty of the
grounds.
At the intersections of the drive
ways hardy bushes will be planted
small triangular plots being laid out.
Buildings are provided for the
groundkeepers and employees about
the place.
An electric light and waterworks
Plant will be erected and beautiful
fountains will enhance the beauty
of the place.
Lewis E. Pricer, the landscape ar
fist, is in charge Of activities so far,
and in all probability will superin-
tend construction of the entire af-
fair. He has built and equipped over
5000 parks in the United States,
some of them among the greatest in
the country, but in his thirty five
years of activities in this line of
work, says he has never seen a
place SO naturally adapted as the
proposed site.
Mr.. Berkner expects to rush the
work along and have much Of the
construction work and plating and
grading done before cold weather.
Activities will be resumed early in
the spring and it is expected to have
the place running full blast when
the season opens next year.
This will be the greatest building
program ever attempted in Sleepy
Eye and will attract thousands to
Sleepy Eye every week. 1t will ri
val the great Leroy farms Of Cy
Thompson fame and will make
Sleepy Eye the amusement center
of Southern Minnesota.
