New VA Clinic celebrates
Sept. 13 opening in Iola
New facility merges
surrounding services
to central location
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
IOLA The U.S. Veterans
Administration as well as
local organizers who pursued the project for more
than a decade will cut the
ribbon on a new VA clinic in Iola September 13 that
will serve an 11-county area
including Anderson County.
VA Strategic Planning
and Planning director Tom
Boos said last week the project culminated more than
a decade of work among
organizers and Iola officials,
and amounted to a realignment and consolidation of
VA healthcare in Southeast
Kansas to one centralized
location. The new full time
clinic at 1408 East Street
will host the event
along with an
open house
and health
fair at 10:30
A.M.
keynote speakers to include
Senator Jerry
Moran, Health
Care
System
Director, Mr. Rudy
Klopfer, and Iola Mayor Mr.
Steven French.
Boos told the Review individuals representing the community of Iola met with VA
leadership in Topeka in June
2011 regarding the desire to
have a VA outpatient clinic
in Iola. At that time, Mayor
Bill Shirley and Carolyn
McLean led the team, along
with Bill Maness, representing Senator Morans
office, were working strategically
to bring more
VA services to
the community. VA officials
toured the area
in October 2014,
Boos said, and were
impressed with the
centrality of the proposed
location and the community
initiative.
They felt Iola had the
highway structure necessary
for access and was centrally located to the surroundSEE VA ON PAGE 8

Davids holds on so
far to defund the
police donor cash
BY DANE HICKS
THE KANSAS INFORMER
WASHINGTON, D.C. Kansas 3rd
District Congresswoman Sharice Davids
is not responding to media inquiries
as to whether shell refund thousands
of dollars in campaign contributions
from donors whove pushed defund the
police efforts.
A
Fox

story listed Davids
and
seven
other
Democrats as well as
two Republicans who
received contributions
in the thousands of
dollars each from leftwing billionaires with

a history of soft-oncrime positions.
The most recent campaign information available shows Davids received
$3,300 from Quinn Delaney, founder
and chairman of the California-based
Akonadi Foundation, which supports
the development of powerful social
change movements to eliminate structural racism and create a racially just
society, according to the organizations
website. The foundation says it funds
primarily in Oakland (Calif.) with a focus
on ending the criminalization of people
of color, and transforming the criminal
justice system.
The Fox story termed Davids one of
the most vulnerable Democrats this election cycle. Neither Davids Washington
office nor her campaign office in
Overland Park would address inquiries from the Kansas Informer about

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Goodbye, and
hello. Todays the last day
of your Tuesday Anderson
County Review. Guess when
the new Thursday paper
begins
You guessed it next
Thursday, Sept. 5.
That means there will
be no Review published
Tuesday, Sept. 3 zero, nada,
zilch.
But September 5, your
local retail stores will burst
forth with the newly pressed
Thursday edition on the
store racks and, if you can
wait that long, your mailboxes will blossom with all
the news fit to print…pretty
much.
Papers will be printed
Thursday morning and distributed to those locations
Thursday afternoon, as well
as dropped off at the local
post office for Friday delivery. The change will mean
our deadline for news and
advertising will move to 5
p.m. Mondays in order to
make that weeks edition.
We made the change
because change is always
popular and people like it.
Just kidding.
We made the change
because continual staffing
and deadline pressures both
at our office and at our press
in Burlingame made it necessary to line our scheduling
up with other papers that
print on the same size paper
we use during the same part
of the week fewer changing
of those giant rolls of paper,
restarting presses, readjusting ink coverage all that.
Our press prints papers from
all over the region, and there
are fewer presses around
these days so were all trying to keep all the plates in
the air and make it all work.

score at home, the Garnett

office on 6th Street back in the
old hot lead days of the 50s
through the mid 1960s, after
the two papers merged, when
the type for the paper was actually made out of molten lead.
Then we partnered in a press at
Osawatomie in a photographic offset press operation for
30-odd years with publishers in
Oz and Paola. When we wanted to move to more full color
options, we sold that press and
moved to Olathe. That paper
and press closed, so we moved
to Harrisonville, Mo., then that
press closed, so we moved to
the Kansas City Star, then that
press closed so we moved to
Sedalia, Mo., then that press
closed…well, you get the picture.
Anyway, even in the digital age our readers and our
advertisers still say they want
a newspaper in print, so thats
what were determined to do
for as long as we can.
Itll take some getting used
to for all of us, but well see you

That marriage later ended in
divorce. She then met and married the love of her life, Eugene
Crab Lundine in July 1982

Peggy worked in Iola, KS for
15 years for H.L. Miller and

LICKTEIG
Move out of the darkness
and into the light
FEBRUARY 6, 1936 AUGUST 20, 2024
Loretta Lickteig, age 88,
of Garnett, Kansas, passed
away on Tuesday, August 20,
2024, at St.
Lukes North
Hospital in
Kansas City,
Missouri.
She
was
born
on
February
6, 1936, at
Greeley,
Lickteig
Kansas. She
was the eighth
of ten children born to William
Joseph and Essie Josephine
(Raitinger) Lickteig. Loretta
grew up on the family farm
near Greeley, attending St.
Johns school before graduating from Greeley High School
with the class of 1954.
Following high school
Loretta began working at
Paola, Kansas in the office of
Fluor. Loretta worked a total
of 60 years before retiring
at the age of 78. She started
working for Taylor Forge/Gulf
Western on March 1, 1959, as a
Secretarial Stenographer and
was promoted to an Estimator
in August 1964. In March 1973,
she was promoted to Junior
Engineer and in March 1974
Engineering Assistant. In
March 1978, Loretta was promoted to Product Designer, and
in 2013 her job title changed to
Gas Product Designer, a position she held until her retirement on September 20, 2014.
Loretta was strong in her
Catholic faith. She was a lifelong member of St. Johns
Catholic Church and the Altar
Society.
Loretta possessed many
talents and always selflessly
shared her gifts with family
and friends. She was famous
for her cinnamon rolls and
sugar cookies. It seemed as if
she could do anything, if she
didnt know how to do something, she taught herself how to
do it. Loretta willingly lent her
talents wherever they could be
utilized. Some of her contributions included sewing, quilting,
taking photographs of family
events, painting portraits, and
making floral arrangements for
family weddings. She enjoyed
traveling with family. Several
trips were accompanied by her
brother, Fr. Tony (and some
grubby kids). Throughout her
life, Loretta seemed to be the
lucky winner of raffles and
drawings. One of her highlights
was winning a lifetime pass to
Starlight Theater in 1957 as she
was the two millionth customer. That honor also earned her
a kiss from Liberace. In her
retirement she looked forward
to visiting with her friends
at the local coffee group, aka
the Cane Club. In her younger
years she enjoyed bowling. Her
easy going personality and love
of family made Loretta a special
aunt to all of her nieces and
nephews. She attended countless school and sporting events.
Family gatherings will not be
the same without her. Loretta
was everything to her family
and her family was everything
to her.
She is survived by two brothers, Father Anthony Lickteig
of Leawood, Kansas; Walter B.
Lickteig of Greeley, Kansas;
sister, Wilma Peine of Garnett,
Kansas; and beloved nieces and
nephews.
Loretta was preceded in
death by her parents, William
and Essie Lickteig; two brothers, Robert Lickteig and Paul
Lickteig; four sisters, Helen
Miller, Florine Hermreck, Eva
Bastian, and Rita Peterson. She
was also preceded in death by
her companion of many years,
Patrick Collins.
Mass of Christian Burial
was August 26, 2024, at St. John
the Baptist Catholic Church,
Greeley. Burial followed in the
St. Johns Cemetery.
Memorial contributions may
be made to the St. Johns Altar
Society or to the St. Rose School

between darkness and light.
They will not co-exist together.
The only way we can move
out of darkness into light is
through a relationship with
Jesus Christ, the light the
prophet is referring to in the
text. Isaiah is clearly saying
there are no human means to
pull yourself out of darkness
into light. Jesus is the light.
He tells us plainly in John 8:12
when he says, I am the light of
the world. Whoever follows me
will never walk in darkness,
but will have the light of life.
Darkness keeps us trapped in
the land of the valley of the
shadow of death. The light
of Jesus Christ lifts us out of
darkness, (death) into the light,
(life).

Ronald Lee Fulton of Gas,

peacefully on August 16, 2024.
Isaiah was Gods prophet
in Judah from 740-680 BC. In
Isaiah 9 he prophecies concerning the coming of the Christ
child. The people walking
in darkness have seen a great
light; on those living in the
land of the shadow of death a
light has dawned. (Isaiah 9:2)
You and I live in the land of
the shadow of death. Darkness
here does not only refer to
the absence of light but it also
refers to poor decisions on our
part and other ways we misuse
our live and the lives of others.
A kind of spiritual darkness.
The further we drift from God
the darker our lives become.
The Bible is full of examples
where Gods people chose to
take the low road. From Adam
and Eves choice to eat the fruit
in the Garden of Eden, to the
golden calf that the Hebrews
fashioned while Moses was
with God, to their failures to
obey God that resulted in years
of captivity. The picture I am
painting here is darkness ultimately leads to moral failure.
Most people are not walking
around in a dark room but
the degree of darkness you
inhabit only acts to condemn

We must ban cell phones in our childrens schools
Americas children are hurting. Behind in
school after pandemic closures, many children
are now struggling with another major barrier
to learning smartphone addiction. Two-thirds
of Americans students say they are distracted
by their digital devices during class.
Theres also a second-hand smoke effect:
More than half of students are distracted by the
devices of other students, according to a 2022
Program for International Student Assessment
study. Its a complex problem. But one solution is embarrassingly simple ban phones in
Americas classrooms.
As a society, we dont allow alcohol or drugs
in schools. Why should we allow highly-addictive phones to be used in the same setting?
Todays phones are designed to grab the
attention of users and never let go. The
average teenager receives 273 cell phone notifications per day, according to a 2023 Common
Sense Media report.
Limitless apps entice children with the promise of the next dopamine surge, a predatory
business model. While numerous studies have
shown the negative psychological impact of
these devices on developing brains, they can
also take a physical toll on the body.
The constant checking, scrolling, and swiping that children succumb to increases cortisol
stress hormone levels, increases blood pressure, and worsens sleep quality.
While phones are not the sole driver of todays

child mental health epidemic, they are playing
a major role. Forty-four percent of teenagers
say that their cell phones make them anxious,
according to a Pew Research study. Thats probably because apps can make children feel ugly,
left out, and lonely. Addictions isolate people,
and phone addiction is no exception.
Teenagers use their phones in lieu of faceto-face interaction with peers. But school is
exactly where children should be developing
those social muscles. In fact, they need human
connections for their learning and to be a part
of a community. The lack of human connections
may explain why suicide and depression rates
are surging, up 167% and 145% respectively for
girls over the last decade, according to the CDC.
Thankfully, some leaders are taking action.
Last month, Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin
signed an executive order to create phone-free
education in the states public schools K-12.
Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York has introduced
a similar ban and South Carolina, Florida, and
Louisiana currently have some types of restrictions on devices in schools.
These governors are attempting to correct
years of unchecked technology stealing the
attention of students when they are supposed to
be learning. If elected officials are serious about
protecting children, they should follow their
lead fast.
The matter could not be more urgent. Forty
percent of children will have a mental health

Harris has no idea how shell pay for her promises
Kamala Harris took a few brief minutes on
the campaign trail to answer a couple of questions from reporters and flash her policy chops.
When asked how she is going to pay for
her lavish spending plans, the vice president
explained that it would be covered via those
indispensable fiscal tools — pixie dust and magical thinking.
The expansion of the child tax credit, which
will cost $1.2 trillion? According to Harris, The
return on that investment, in terms of what that
will do and what it will pay for, will be tremendous.
Tax credits generally, including a $150 billion
expansion of the Earned Income Tax Credit?
We know that theres a great return on investment.
Subsidies for home ownership, costing $200
billion? When we increase homeownership in
America, what that means in terms of increasing the tax base, not to mention your property
tax base, and what that does to fund schools.
Again, return on investment.
In general, the vice president opined, I think
its a mistake for any person who talks about
public policy to not critically evaluate how you
measure the return on investment.
Because, she continued, when you were
strengthening neighborhoods, strengthening
communities, and in particular the economy
of those communities and investing in a broadbased economy, everybody benefits and it pays
for itself in that way.
Clearly, someone mentioned return on
investment to her in a policy briefing somewhere along the line, and the phrase stuck. Now,
Harris thinks shes the Warren Buffett of deficit
spending.
The concept of investment tends to be inapt
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
in the context of government spending. In the
private sector, when someone takes the risk
of investing in a business or product and if it
doesnt work, he or she pays the price. This
ensures a measure of accountability and rigor
that is lacking in government.
Theres a reason that no one ever confuses the
Department of Health and Human Services with
Apple Inc.
That doesnt mean that some projects dont
create real returns. By making New York the
countrys most commercially vibrant city,
opening up the West to settlement and drastically reducing transportation costs, the Erie
Canal was indeed a great investment. Spending
$330 billion during World War II to defeat the
Axis powers and to make the United States the
worlds preeminent power was worth it by any
measure.
These are the exceptions, though. Theres
been so much so-called investment by the
federal government in general and the Biden
the corner of the ring.
Biden was done.
He withdrew from the race
and has barely been seen since.
Next up, Kamala Harris.
Yes, the same Kamala Harris
who Democrats spent months
arguing should be dropped
from the political ticket
because she was the least popular vice president in the history of modern American politics. Hell, Dick Cheney shot
someone in the face while he
was vice president(!), and was
still more popular than Harris.
In one fell swoop, without
receiving a single vote for
president, Democrats canceled the expressed will of
14 million primary voters
and elevated Harris to the
nomination.
Amazingly, Harris, who has
never received a single
vote for president, is the
nominee.
Yes, the same Harris who
dropped out of the 2020 presidential race before a single
vote had been cast. The same
Harris who most with functional brains realize would
have never been the Democrat
nominee if Biden had done
what he should have done
and announced he wasnt running in the late spring of 2023.
That would have allowed an
actual Democratic primary
but, alas, weve all come
to realize Democrats
dont want elections, they
want selections.
Hillary Clinton in
2016, Biden in 2020,
now Harris in 2024.
administration in particular, that its a wonder
that the budget hasnt already balanced itself.
Instead, the deficit is nearly $2 trillion a year,
and the debt is $34 trillion.
Wheres the return? There is some, no doubt,
but it is overwhelmed by the geyser of spending on every priority, from the Administration
for Children and Families to the Wireless
Telecommunications Bureau.
Harris is proposing to layer on another $1.7
trillion in deficit spending.
Its not just that there will be no return
to almost all of it, government intervention
often has the opposite of its intended effect by
driving up prices. Theres a reason that health
care, higher education and housing cost so
much. Regardless, the answer from the likes of
Kamala Harris is always more intervention. An
element of her program is more subsidies to
help Americans afford health insurance on the
Affordable Care Act marketplace. Wasnt that
what the ACA itself was supposed to do?
So, no, the Harris spending program wont
pay for itself any more than the Biden program
did, or for that matter, the Trump, Obama or
Bush program did. Magical realism — or magical unrealism — in budgeting is an entrenched,
bipartisan phenomenon in Washington. Thats
why weve gotten so much investing with so
little return, except an ever-escalating debt and
a series of worthless pledges about impending
fiscal probity.
Like any huckster working in a boiler room,
Harris is hoping to find people credulous enough
to believe whats too good to be true.

fine but before you get to that little bit theres
that field that needs to be mowed and then
theres that ditch, those little kids are trying to

I lived here in Garnett, Kansas, for over 40 years
and the Garnett Cemetery is in the worst shape
Ive ever seen since it since Ive lived here. Its a
shame having it look like that. If they dont have
enough help get someone else.
Id like to speak on the idea of the Democrats
running on the basis of abortion. Weve already
murdered 663,000 and what scares me more is
the vice president wants to determine when they
can be taken away from their family. What are
we, China or Russia or what? Anyway it sure
does worry me. Thank you.
I wish people would quit mowing in the early
morning and late evening and stirring up the
mosquitoes so they bite. Id appreciate it if they
would mow when the mosquitoes dont want to
eat you.
To the person that called in about animals not
having feelings. Sure, maam, if you dont think
animals have feelings you need to remember
about dogs and cats living together. They know
whats right and they know whats wrong. And
if you dont beleive that, you need to go back to

in ten teachers say that cell
phone distraction is a major
problem in the classroom,
according to a study by the
Pew Research Center. The
problem is also worsening the
teacher shortage crisis in public schools because of the new
cell phone culture of schools.
Teachers that leave the profession have cited issues with
social media in the classroom
as a major factor to their departures.
Banning cell phones in
school is entirely feasible. At
St. Anthony Middle School
in Minnesota, students are
now required to put their
cell phones in their lockers
between 8:00 am and 2:45 pm.
Principal Amy Kujawski
enacted the ban in part to
deal with online misbehavior.
Smartphones were a giant distraction to learning and they
were also interrupting our
chances to build strong relationships with our students,
she told Minnesota Public
Radio. As a result of her policy,
the school experienced a near
elimination of phone-related
behavioral issues.

The Anderson County
Sheriffs Department annual
marijuana harvest is in full
swing. Deputies confiscated over 60 cultivated plants
last week from a plot south of
Garnett. The average height of
the plants was six feet, according to Sheriff David Vaughn.
A confidential informant gave
the department the location of
the weed. Another 500 plants
were confiscated later in the
week northeast of Garnett. An
informant also reported these
plants were ready to be picked.
The plants were destroyed by
fire, per the Kansas Bureau
of Investigation. Those driving past the Anderson County
Courthouse on October 1 might
be blinded by the shimmering
paint jobs and polished chrome
of more than 200 customized
and restored cars parked
around the courthouse lawn.
The vehicles will be part of the
Fourth Annual Lake Garnett

show is open, so expect to see
everything from 1920 Fords

given out to the top 75 cars, and
special awards for many classes of vehicles.

This summers cooler and

revenue needed for the Garnett
Municipal Pool by more than
30 percent. Eighty years ago,
the world was different, but Joe
Boserman Jr. said the sound
of hammers on the anvil, heat,
and metal shaping has not
changed. When he came home
from the U.S. Army in 1946,
he joined his step-grandfather
Steve Thompsons blacksmith
shop and began welding, fabricating, and repairing ever
since. Boserman said that
back when his grandfather and
other family members were in
the blacksmith business, there
were several places where
folks took their horses to get
shod. There was a long shed
full of stalls at the Farmers
Feed Yard, where people would
leave their horses while doing
business in town. He said he
remembers people bringing
plowshares to be sharpened,
machinery to be repaired, and
eggs and cream to sell and

concrete replacement over
the top of the culvert by the
Anderson County Rodeo Arena
as well as new concrete over
the culvert near Clubhouse
Bend Campgrounds.
Once the concrete has cured,
the Lake Road will have asphalt
patching, macrotexture, and
UBAS applied for the resurface. The work will be done by

counties where most Veterans
reside, Koos said.
Previously, VA Eastern
Kansas Health Care System
was operating 3 part-time outpatient clinics in southeast
Kansas. The distance between
the clinics, combined with the
limitations of being part-time
clinics, limited access to VA
care and services.
After careful consideration of available options, VA
arrived at our current proposal
which we believe best serves
the needs of our veterans,
Koos said.
The project consolidates VA
care from Garnett, Chanute,
and Fort Scott communities to
one centralized location, the
cornerstone being primary
the George Floyd riots of 2020,
when tens of millions of dollars were donated to election
campaigns by leftist financial
leaders like George Soros to
the campaigns of local prosecutors like George Gascon in Los
Angeles, who set about reducing criminal prosecutions and
restricting or ending cash bail
policies and allowed criminals
faster release times after their
arrests for various crimes.
The resulting surges in urban
crime have crippled those
neighborhoods and resulted in
public backlash, fostering massive resentment among law
enforcement entities.
At least 30 people were shot,
6 of them fatally in the City
of Chicago the weekend before
the Democratic National
Convention began there.
care, mental health services
and laboratory.
This consolidation will
improve health care access and
allow us to expand services to
Veterans and active-duty service members in the southeast
section of Kansas and serve
Veterans in six surrounding
counties, using the two major
highways that run through
Iola, Koos said.

Theyre all the product of the
people running the DNC, the
hand-selected nominees of the
party, will of the voters be
damned.
The party that claims
Trump is a threat to democracy has now, incredibly,
charged Trump with felonies
in three different states and
Washington, D.C., seeking jail
time in each case, removed
the president who received the
Democrat nomination for president and replaced him with
a nominee who received not
a single vote for that nomination, fought every third party
challenger, including Robert F.
Kennedy, Jr., the green party,
Cornel West, and the libertarian party, who has sought ballot
access in the 2024 election, and
dutifully hidden Harris from
all media, refusing all interview requests and all press conference availabilities.
This is not the democratic
process. This is not how candidates should be chosen.
Kennedy realized all of this.
Its why he couldnt stand
play on social media influencer
pages fed to our young by an
algorithmic rig job perpetrated
by our online billionaire lords,
a constant loop of vacuous
nothingness, as deep and complex as the number of votes she
received for the most important job in the world — a rigged
candidate from a rigged party,
the antithesis of American
democracy, the only person in
any of our lives to ever run for
president without a single person voting for them.
So now, here we are, its
Harris vs. Trump and Kennedy,
and if youre paying attention
to the slightest degree, even if
youre a lifelong Democrat like
Kennedy, it isnt a tough call at
all.
Its Trump or nothing.

be a spoiler in this race. Its why
he felt compelled to speak out,
stand on principle, and endorse
the only presidential candidate
who actually won a primary, to
support the only presidential
candidate who supports free
speech and believes in sharing
his vision for the world.
Ultimately, even if it
required him to turn his back
on the party that made his
family a mythological heir to
Camelot, Kennedy had only one
choice.
The result — Trump and
Kennedy are now a team.
Thanks to the bevy of interviews, press conferences, and
public events both men have
had, we know exactly where
Donald Trump and Robert
F. Kennedy stand on all the
issues. But we still dont have
a single policy page on Harris
website. Her team has spent
more time telling us what she
doesnt believe than what she
does.
Harris is the phantom candidate, a smiley-faced emoticon gazing back at you from a

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, August 27, 2024
LOCAL
Labor Day, September 2, 2024
Holiday recognizes workers who make America exceptional
Observed the first Monday
in September, Labor Day is an
annual celebration of the social
and economic achievements of
American workers. The holiday is rooted in the late nineteenth century, when labor
activists pushed for a federal
holiday to recognize the many
contributions workers have
made to Americas strength,
prosperity, and well-being.
Early Adopters
Before it was a federal holiday, Labor Day was recognized
by labor activists and individual states. After municipal
ordinances were passed in 1885
and 1886, a movement developed to secure state legislation. New York was the first
state to introduce a bill, but
Oregon was the first to pass a
law recognizing Labor Day, on
February 21, 1887. During 1887,
four more states Colorado,
Massachusetts, New Jersey and
New York passed laws creating a Labor Day holiday. By the
end of the decade Connecticut,
Nebraska and Pennsylvania
had followed suit. By 1894, 23
more states had adopted the
holiday, and on June 28, 1894,
Congress passed an act making
the first Monday in September
of each year a legal holiday.
McGuire v. Maguire: Who
Founded Labor Day?
Who first proposed the
holiday for workers? Its not
entirely clear, but two workers
can make a solid claim to the
Founder of Labor Day title.
Some records show that in
1882, Peter J. McGuire, general
secretary of the Brotherhood
of Carpenters and Joiners and
a co-founder of the American
Federation of Labor, suggested
setting aside a day for a "general holiday for the laboring
classes" to honor those "who
from rude nature have delved
and carved all the grandeur we
behold."
But Peter McGuire's place in
Labor Day history has not gone
unchallenged. Many believe
that machinist Matthew
Maguire, not Peter McGuire,
founded the holiday.
Recent research seems to
support the contention that
Matthew Maguire, later the
secretary of Local 344 of the
International Association of
Machinists in Paterson, New
Jersey, proposed the holiday in
1882 while serving as secretary
of the Central Labor Union in
New York.
According to the New
Jersey Historical Society, after
President Cleveland signed the
law creating a national Labor
Day, the Paterson Morning
Call published an opinion
piece stating that "the souvenir pen should go to Alderman
Matthew Maguire of this city,
who is the undisputed author of
Labor Day as a holiday." Both
Maguire and McGuire attended
the countrys first Labor Day
parade in New York City that
year.
The First Labor Day
The first Labor Day holiday
was celebrated on Tuesday,

Labor Day!
September 5, 1882, in New
York City, in accordance with
the plans of the Central Labor
Union. The Central Labor
Union held its second Labor
Day holiday just a year later,
on September 5, 1883.
By 1894, 23 more states had
adopted the holiday, and on
June 28, 1894, President Grover
Cleveland signed a law making
the first Monday in September
of each year a national holiday.
A Nationwide Holiday
Many Americans celebrate
Labor Day with parades, picnics and parties festivities
very similar to those outlined
by the first proposal for a holiday, which suggested that the
day should be observed with
a street parade to exhibit "the
strength and esprit de corps
of the trade and labor organizations" of the community,
followed by a festival for the
recreation and amusement of
the workers and their families.
This became the pattern for the
celebrations of Labor Day.
2×3
Patriots
Speeches by prominent men
and women were introduced
later, as more emphasis was
placed upon the economic and
civic significance of the holiday. Still later, by a resolution
of the American Federation of
Labor convention of 1909, the
Sunday preceding Labor Day
was adopted as Labor Sunday
and dedicated to the spiritual
and educational aspects of the
labor movement.
American labor has raised
the nations standard of living
and contributed to the greatest
production the world has ever
known and the labor movement
has brought us closer to the
realization of our traditional
ideals of economic and political
democracy. It is appropriate,
therefore, that the nation pays
tribute on Labor Day to the creator of so much of the nation's
strength, freedom, and leadership the American worker.
