has Impressed upon all who took
pirt In this year's celebration, the
desirability of more thorough prep
aration next year. And the common
decision on the purl of all concerned
has been to begin now for next year's
Labor Day. It. was not. through a
lark of Interest that more prepara
tion was not made this voir but. to
the fad. that, people were so busy
that they forgot, about the day till
only a short time remained before
the day Itself. The various unions of
the city have made unanimous reso
lutions to keep a live reminder all
the year and to clve 'ample lime for
a greater day next year.

orders which are among tho most
Important organizations in the city
could not lake part, this year on ac
count of the short notice given. Next

the making of the celebration.

there was not a single union man

men of the different unions have
suggested that, the saloons be re
