sail Samuel Gompers, president of theAmerican Federation ?' Lahor, .tnd D. M.Fairy, president of tl Actvinf National Aaaociation. And vn on part ofthis feature has ben secured, and in itselfwill be the greatest attraction of the day.Samuel Gompers will h. prosewt, and tohim haa been left the only address of the4a., . As far as he Is able Mr Jompers willarr' out his part of the debate that was

planned with Mr. Parry. His address willPa devoted entirely to Mr. Parry. hisbarges, his policy, his position against or-

ganized labor as an Individual and as pres-ftve- nt

of the Manufacturers' National Asso-ciation. He represents not nn organiza-tion, but the mass of organized lalmr ofAmerica, and in his addresa on the move-ment against unionism he will voice the at-titude of the superior working men of thecountry. Even more interest attaches it-

self to the address for the reason that al-

ready the battle against Mr. Parry has beenbegun in print, and that within the pastweak and in Indianapolis. Mr. ionipcrs onhis part has taken advantage of the oppor-tunity to come to the seat of the Parrymovement and strike nearest home. ThisIo doubt went far in bringing the presidentcf the American Federation of Iabor to In-

dianapolis. For this reason his speech islooked forward to not as a mere expositionon Labor day. but as an address that willgo down in the annals of labor.

MORNING PARADE.Tha other pari of the day's programme laf no little note. The morning will begin

with the parade, the massed column oftha city's workiugmen. wearing on thelapels o( their coat the American flagsand their union buttons. To the music ofmany bands and under gay flaunting ban-ners bearing the names of the union underwhich they are enlisted, they will marchthrough the principal douu-tw- n streetsof the city and finally disperse in the vi-

cinity of the Statehousc, whence all wayslead to the fair grounds, where the re-

mainder of the programme will be given.From all reports the parade will be thilongest and best equipped the laboring peo-ple have ever held. An estimate placesfifteen thousand men in the line and it willnot fall far short of that. Besides all theunion men in the city, several hundredunion advocates from Shelbyville will form

division In the column. They will arriveearly with their union bands, their unionflags, their union buttons, their union lead-ers and their irrepressible unionism. Therewill be about fifteen bands in the parade,many of which are from out of town andLave been secured for the reason that theywere strictly union. The supply in theCity was not sufficient, so a canvas ofoutlying towns was made. The Musicians'Vnion has delnred that none but unionmusic shall sweW the breeze. George Gor-don will be grand marshal of the occasionand Mat O Mara will be assistant grandmarshal. They will be assisted by eightother marshals, who will head the different6 visions. The marshals will all weargolden bralied uniforms with golden eock-ade- s

on their hats, union-mad- e garments,and they will ride sleek horses, shod byanion blacksmiths and bearing the unionbrand. They themselves will be union fromthe .soles of their shoes to the tops oftheir hats. 8uch is the parade, union fromvanguard to rear guard. If it is knownthere will be no nonunion man in thecolumn; they are blacklisted.

GENERAL FESTIVITIES.In the afternoon the general festivities.

In which all can find equal enjoyment, willbe at the State fair grounds. Here willJir. Gompers deliver his address, but asidefrom this there will be plenty of otherlighter amusements. There will be thingsof various kinds that will interest the wivesof the workingmen. with their childrenclinging to their skirts. th young girls andthe young men. the middle aged men andthe old men. union and nonunion, for thereWill be no line drawn at the fair grounds.A large platform has been built In front ofthe grand stand and everj thing aside fromthe races will be given here. The pro-gramme will begin with a gravel wagonrace that will take one back to the dayscf the thundering chariots. After thatthere will be music ami then the addressCf Samuel Gompers, after which more mu-

(Governor's Proclamation.Recognizing the significance of Labor

Amy, Governor Durbin issued the followingproclamation:

"Primarily by the energy, the enterpriseand the ambition of toilers, Indiana hasbeen transformed from a primeval wilder-ness into a commonwealth richer in ma-

terial Interests than was the entire Nationat the period of the State's admission tothe Union less than a century ago.

"The sanction of our laws has been givento the celebration of a holiday whereby rec-ognition is accorded not merely to the debtof our civilization to those whose toil hasmade our progress possible, but to the factthat labor is a national and not a factionalInterest; ihat labor is not the scorned func-tion of a fixed class, as In countries wherethe social superstructure is supported onthe shoulders of those who loll, but the ob-

ligation of a people, diffused throughout ourentire citizeu.-hi- p With us labor is notmerely dlgnitled and attended with oppor-tunity, but takes on the nobility of pa-triotic service, and there is dishonor involuntary idleuess, either of rich or poor.

"The community of this interest attainswider recognition as the altruistic spiritcharacteristic of a better civilization takesstronger hold upon our people. Particular-ly may we cong ratulate ourselves uponthe growth of this spirit in recent years,finding gradual expression not only In hu-mane legiblstion. but, what is vastly moresignificant, in an attitude of arbitrationand conciliation between hitherto contend-ing elements in our industrial life.

"Thantviul because at this particular pe-

riod labor throughout Indiana rinds itselfso opportunely situated, with an outlookbroadening and brightening, In the beliefthat there should be a general celebrationof this general holiday, and in compliancewith legislative enactment, 1 hereby desig-nate Monday. Sop. 7, as Labor day, andrecommend that it be celebrated throughoutthe State by the suspension of usual oc-

cupations, by the display of the nationalflags in public places, by popular assem-blages In nonor of this patriotic holiday,and by such other means consistent withthe character of the day as may commendthemselves to our people."

sLABOR TEMPLE.

History of the Movement to Securea Home for Labor.

There Is still another feature ofprogramme that is of general inter-

est to organized labor of the city and thatis the raffling of the house and lot at lrv- -

lngton by the Labor Temple committee.Those who have bought tickets for theraffle are naturally interested in the out-come, for it means a pleasant home to thewinner, but the interest goes further thanthe mere winning of the house and lot,which is but a movement of the LaborTemple committee to secure funds for thelong anticipated Labor Temple. For yearsthere have been Labor Temple committeesworking on the project, some have been

E1K

MP lie ijp Xe tXe tie 2c 2t ilf mät lit tXe

more or less successful in increasing thefund, others have failed entirely. The pres-ent committee, composed of John F. White,Edgar A. Perkins and Henry Friedman,has been the most successful sines themovement was started and the raffling of ahouse and lot is a project of Its owa toraise more money. The object ultimatelyin view is to raise enough funds to builda large ten-stor- y building in the city, whichwill be devoted entirely to organised labor.The lot at Irvington has already been se-

cured by the committee and is in thsMeyers addition, Just south of ButlerCollege. The house will be construct-ed for the winner of the contest thisfall. The raffling will take place late to-

morrow afternoon at the fair grounds. Thetickets are 10 cents apiece, and although agood many have been sold, the big sale isexpected at the gror ds. Every personwho buys a ticket at the fair grounds willbe entitled to a vote for the most popularcandidate for mayor In the coming cityelection. This is only a side issue to amusethose who are deeply interested in ths out-come of the political situation. The Judgeswill be the candidates themselves.

The building of a Labor Temple in In-

dianapolis, to be used as the headquartersand general meeting place for all the unionsof the city, has been a dream of the activemembers of organized labor here for manyyears. As far back as the eighties, duringthe early days of the Knights of Labor, Itseemed at one time to be materializingtntsolid shape and a fifty-thousand-dol- lar

project was launched. However, stormsswept through the ranks of the labor army,disagreements arose and the enterprise van-

ished after the great street railway strikein this city at that time.

Since then there have been continual at-

tempts to build or fit up labor headquarters,none of which was successful, except thatthey served to keep alive and stimulateihe Labor Temple movement.

The more recent attempts to raise fundsand arouse interest in the enterprise werethe Sunday-afternoo- n band concerts givenat Tomlinson Hall four years ago. The en-

tertainments did not prove sufficiently pop-

ular to net the committee in charge morethan a small start towards the fund.Since that time the agitation has beenkept up with more or less vigor. Late ef-

forts have been directed in a campaign toinduce the unions to vote a small per capitatax for the benefit of the Labor Templefund. In this there has been considerablesuccess, but few unions declining to complywith the request.

In addition to this plan, the present com-

mittee, which acts by the authority of thsCentral Labor Union, has undertaken toraffle off the house and lot at Irvlngton. Ithas been a tedious and laborious task, butafter hard effort enough tickets have al-

ready been sold to Insure the raffle and thsevent will occur to-morr- at 5 o'clock lathe afternoon at the administration build-ing In the fair grounds.

The committee now managing the LaborTemple affair Is under instructions to raise$3,000 as a preliminary step, after which itis believed the project can be put into defi-

nite form. It Is now felt by those followingthe movement that that sum will be inhand by Jan. 1 of next year and the build-ing can be begun.

Garment Workers Honored.A. B. Larger, of Cincinnati, president of
