should be followed by picnic or fes-
tival in some grove, and the proceeds
of the same be divided on this semi
cooperative plan, viz:
Each union or organization should
get as many tickets as it desired to
sell; the more sold the greater would
be the profits to the society selling
them. Each society should be allowed
to keep all the money realized by sale
of tickets through it's members. In
the end each Of the bodies participant
ing should contribute to the expenses
in proportion to it's membership.
First Monday in September Selected
1t was further argued Labor Day
should be observed as one festal day
in the year for public tribute to the
genius of American industry. There
were other worthy holidays repre-
sentative Of the religious, civil and
military spirit, but none representa-
tive Of the industrial spirit-the great
vital force of every nation. He Sug-
gested the first Monday in September
of every year for such a holiday, as
it would come at the most pleasant
season Of the year, nearly midway
between the Fourth of July and
Thanksgiving, and would fill wide
gap in the chronology of legal holi-
days. Many were the cogent reasons
he advanced, and at once the idea was
enthusiastically embraced.

our industries being sacrificed on the
exchange block of international trade
for the possible advancement of few
heavy goods industries such as auto
mobiles, steel, munitions, petroleum
and business machines.
1t is we'll to point out the low labor
employment in the heavy goods indus
tries as compared to the consumer
goods industries and that imports of
consumer goods are flooding the
country and steadily increasing un-
employment in those industries.
1t shall be our aim to educate
American Citizens to be loyal to
American Business and American
Workers by giving preference to
American products when making pur-
chases back on the payrolls Of private
business.
To this end dedicate my work as

festival of the Central Labor Union
of New York City on September 5,
1882, was simply an imposing sue
cess. From that day on, it became a
fixed institution in the United States,
observed today in every city of the
land. The plan was next endorsed by
the annual convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor and the gen
eral assembly of the Knights of La
Dor. 1t spread rapidly from city to
city, and from town to town. City
councils and State legislatures took it
up, and made it legal holiday, until
finally, June 28, 1894, it became a
nation holiday, by act Of Congress. !
Power of Organized Labor
There was a time, and it is not
many years ago, when the trade
union and the labor movement of
America were too insignificant -
Presidents, Governors, Mayors,
Councilmen or public men to consider,
much less honor. Trade unions were
of no consequence; trade unionists
were harmless fanatics. Now, they
are VI iioIc Weight, more lllllucilldi,
more powerful. No longer can they
be sneered down or cajoled; they must
be met, they must be recognized. What
mighty portent is in their movement?
In their hands rest the veal of the
worker, his welfare and improvement.
With hands and hearts together,
with united funds and united inter
ests, to stand for one another, day
after day, year in and year out, in
good times and in bad, who dare say
what can they not accomplish? In the
workshop and on the forum, at the
ballot box and in every field of en-
deavor, they can right every wrong
and eradicate every evil oppressive to
the working people.

Returns from the sale Of

The Seal Sale in 1887 totaled
$56,716 and it is anticipated that
figure will be surpassed in the

PLAN ERECTION
OF HIGH TOWER
TO BE BUILT AS ATTRAc-
TON TO VISITORS TO
ORANGE FESTIVAL

WINTER HAVEN, Dec. 6
FNS).-The highest strictly OBJ
servation tower in the State of
Florida, and one of the highest
structures in Florida. may be
built here as an attraction for
visitors to the Florida Orange
Festival.
Homer Gibbs, local architect,
has petitioned the city council to
donate land to a proposed COR
poration to be known as 'tObser-
walton Towers, Inc.," on which
the corporation will erect 225-
foot all-steel tower with a wide
observation platform, from which
visitors can view the countryside
for, miles about.
There are only a few buildings,
such as the Dade County court
house, which are as high as the
proposed tower would be, and
there is nothing in central Flor
ida to approximate its height,
Gibbs said.
He predicted that if the tower
were buils it would prove as
much of a tourist attraction as
the famed Singing Tower, for it
would draw thousands who are
interested in obtaining a birds
eye" view of the landscape and
the citrus groves.
Under the plan. the corpora
ton would sell stock to Winter
Haven residents and others
throughout the state.
Special invitations are being
sent to all "shuffleboard experts
of tourist clubs throughout the
state, to send their best players
