Show I LABOR DAr I Monday Is Labor Day It is a legal holiday made so by act of the Utah > legislature It is observed on the same day Inseveral states of the Union and should receive general recognition throughout this territory Labor has struggles enough it ought to have some enjoyments There Is no excellence without labor There would without It be no wealth Capital is one of the results of labor Each reproduces the other and each is essential to the other in all great projects pro-jects It is a thousand pities that they should be pitted against one another seeing that they are mutually dependent depend-ent and ought to be cooperative But apart from these questions labor la-bor needs recreation or rather its representatives rep-resentatives do and it Is a good thing to have fixed holidays that the sons and daughters of physical toil may relax re-lax their muscles and sinews and enjoy en-joy themselves in their own fashion Many of them would have more frequent fre-quent oportunitles for this and would be able to provide better for the future if they were not given to excess on such occasions as they have and were more provident generally Moderation and temperance ought to be cultivated to a greater extent by laboring folks and thrift would save them from many sorrows However we hope the laborers of Utah will have a jolly day on Monday and thereby fit themselves for further exertions That is i the true purpose of a general holiday We wish our working work-ing friends a splendid time whether in town or country in the canyon or at he lake and that labor day 1894 will prove a holiday that will linger long In pleasant memory |
