Virginia Lee Schrant, age 87,
of Osawatomie, Kansas, formerly of Richmond, Kansas, passed
away on Saturday, August 20,
2022, at her home.
On October 10, 1934, at
Walker, Kansas, Virginia was
born to Henry and Catherine
(Etzel) Schrant.
Mass of Christian burial was
held on Thursday, August 25,
2022, at St. Therese Catholic
Church in Richmond, Kansas.
Burial followed at St. Boniface
Cemetery, Scipio, Kansas.
How do we move Jesus from
the church pew to the world?
If there was one thing that
Jesus stressed when he was
here on earth it was discipleship. In Matthew 28:19-20 he
issues this command to the
apostles. Therefore go and
make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of
the Father and of the Son and
of the Holy Spirit and teaching them everything I have
commanded you. Over the
years this command has fallen out of favor in the church.
At some point the church
decided that baptism was the
only necessary condition for
the Christian. Most churchs
support some type of mission
program but by and large not
within their own congregation.
Most congregations have come
to feel that discipleship is done
in some far off field by some
missionary.
I believe we need to be careful how we interpret the phase
all nations. If we do not
make disciples out of our own
congregations we are not obeying John 14:15 which states
in Jesus own words. If you
love me you will obey what
I command.
We obey the
traffic laws because we know
there will be consequences if
we dont. Yet we feel little or
no obligation to obey this command from Jesus. I often ask
the question of people, what
is the most important thing in
your life? Usually I do this
in a setting where I am ask-
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
ing them to consider this. I
have asked myself that question untold times and there are
times when my answer would
not be my relationship with
Jesus. As human beings we
are so grounded in the world
our thought process leads us
to try and be the captain of our
own ship. Since the world is
terribly flawed, so is this thinking. Once I got tuned into Jesus
I prefer to have him at my side.
Depending on him results in a
life of integrity, a life driven by
truths far more powerful than
most people are prepared for
and they will notice that your
motives are different. This is
how you move Jesus from the
church pew out into the world.
We dont obey Jesus for the
same reason we obey the traffic
laws. We obey him because we
love him. I suspect people do
this not even knowing they are
being disciples. Just value the
opportunities you can have no
higher calling.

the Holiness of God.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, August 30, 2022
OPINION
You borrow it, you pay it back
Underpinning the moronically obvious election year ploy at the root of Joe Bidens recently
announced student debt exoneration bribe is
another clear illustration how basic morality
has no bearing among the Far Left that is puppeteering Bidens presidency.
The obligation isnt just an American tradition; its pretty much the basis of the entire institution of finance. When did it become morally
acceptable to borrow money and not pay it back?
Just when Democrats are desperate to hold onto
power?
The point is and has been widely observed for
decades. James Dorn wrote in a 2010 essay for
the Foundation for Economic Education that the
growth in government and the development of
the nanny state that solidifies power by making the populace more dependent has sapped the
nations backbone and made expectation not
initiative a staple.
One cannot blame government for all of societys ills, Dorn writes, but there is no doubt
that economic and social legislation, especially
since the mid-1960s, has had a negative impact
on individual responsibility. Individuals lose
their moral bearing when they become dependent on government. Subsidies, bailouts, and
other aspects of the nanny state socialize
risk and reduce individual accountability. The
internal moral compass that normally guides
individual behavior will no longer function
when the State undermines incentives for moral
conduct and blurs the distinction between right
and wrong.
Dorns connection between government coddling, the abandonment of accountability and
declining morality was based on his rearview
from 2010, but it was nothing if not prophecy for
our modern times.
It seems more elements of American society
see right and wrong as relative. Black Lives
Matter terrorists attacked and burned U.S. cities the summer of 2020 based on their phony
calls for social justice. The reality was that
thousands of criminals simply wanted an excuse
to destroy and loot their neighbors. When confronted with the immorality of the destruction
and theft of private property, apologists justified
that the property was insured so what was the
harm?
How do you debate or convince someone
that uses that kind of justification for victimizing someone else? The argument is clearly
lost on President Biden and the socialist hacks
in his administration, who used the tired but
convenient excuse of Covid recovery to expand
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
governmental power and now to bribe part of an
electorate that overall views his presidency as
rotten on all fronts.
The logic is clear. Bidens student debt bailout targets a minority of the population most
Americans dont go to college and fewer graduate but those who will earn on average $1
million more over their lifetimes than those who
dont. This cadre of graduates tend to be liberals
and voted for Biden overwhelmingly hint, hint.
Obvious arguments abound. What of all of us
who came before, borrowed money for school
and paid it back? What about those that will
seek future loans? Older sister gets her loan
abolished, what about younger sister coming a
few years behind? What of the small businesses the restaurant owners, the welders, the one
or two-person HVAC companies, the mechanic
shops all who borrowed start up funds to pursue their livelihoods and paid the money back?
Wheres the fairness in rewarding a slim segment of borrowers who are generally better off
and happen to mostly vote Democrat?
Thankfully, the inconsistency isnt being lost
on the discussions surrounding Bidens move.
The transfer of some $500 billion in personal
debt onto the whole of the tax-paying population
isnt coming without rebuke, and be assured the
truism remains: debt doesnt disappear once the
money has been spent it is still owed by somebody to somebody. Knowing that pits one group
of Americans against another yet again.
We can chalk it up as simply another dismal
outcome of Bidens disastrous leadership. Like
Afghanistan, inflation, vaccine mandates, the
humanitarian crisis at the southern border,
cascading urban crime and more, it is seeded in
a key notion an American presidencys willful
repudiation of right and wrong. ###

An open letter to the President. Dear Joe: Do you

youre taking their money to pay for things they

you create makes our worth less. Cut it out.

The only reason the county needs a million dol-
Lower taxes, not gimmicks, bring families to towns
Shawnee County residents have paid a
maximum of $900,000 since 2019 for the Choose
Topeka program incentivizing 70 workers
thus far to move to the area. But between
2019 and 2021, Shawnee County lost 1,182 residents through net domestic migration thats
almost 17 times as many workers as the relocation subsidy has brought in.
Choose Topeka is a financial incentive
administered through the Joint Economic
Development Organization of Topeka and
Shawnee County. Since its inception in 2019, a
half-cent sales tax across Shawnee County has
financed about $300,000 annually in financial
incentives for people to move to the Topeka
area. Depending on whether the relocation
subsidy recipient is renting or purchasing a
home and working in-person or remote, the
incentives can vary from $5,000 to $15,000 per
person.
Since 2019, 70 people have been given incentives and moved to the area. Assuming that
the full cap of $300,000 has been spent each
fiscal year, then each person has received
an average of $12,857 from $900,000 in taxpayer-funded incentives. Thats money taken
from local taxpayers to give away to someone
else.
Relocation subsidies similar to Choose
Topeka have also raised fiscal question marks
KANSAS COMMENTARY
GANON EVANS, KANSAS POLICY INSTITUTE
across the country. An audit of a statewide program in Vermont to pay people to move to the
state could not determine whether residents
moved to the state because of the incentive or
because of other reasons, such as family commitments. A largely privately-funded experiment in Tulsa to bring in remote workers has
led to issues like gentrification as high-tech
jobs are being paid to move into the area at the
expense of the people already there. It doesnt
make sense to have poorer residents pay the
bill for wealthier people to move to their area.
There are many ways to attract new residents to Shawnee County while at the same
time making current families want to stay
there. Instead of taking money from taxpayers
to give to other taxpayers, elected officials can
reduce the cost of government and let people keep more of their own money. In other
words, remove the barriers that make the city
too expensive instead of making the problem
worse for everyone paying for the subsidy.
Since 1997, Topekas property tax collections have grown by 123.1%, 2.5 times higher
than the combined rate of population growth
and inflation. Controlling the government
spending and taxing less saves families hundreds of dollars and could keep them in their
homes. According to a 2018 KPI study of county budgets, Shawnee County spent $833 per
resident while Douglas County only spent
$655. Theres room for improvement and budget tightening to provide the same services at
a better price.
Affordable housing is a key factor.
Reforming zoning laws has seen much success
in states like California where cost and availability has become an issue. For instance,
building height caps, minimum lot sizes, and
rules about what types of buildings can be
located near others can severely limit development and discourage developers from makSEE EVANS ON PAGE 5
Liz Cheneys long, lonely, non-Lincolnian path
Its a slip, not a fall, Abraham Lincoln
said after his loss in his legendary 1858 Illinois
Senate contest against Stephen Douglas.
Liz Cheney apparently has the same attitude after her nearly 40-point wipeout in her
primary last week. In lieu of a traditional concession speech, the Wyoming congresswoman
and daughter of the former vice president
delivered a picturesque, made-for-TV call to
arms invoking Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses
S. Grant.
Cheney had a choice after Jan. 6 between
political viability, which would have involved
modulating her outrage over Trumps Stop
the Steal campaign, or political self-immolation. She chose a spectacular act of immolation — illuminating the night sky like the
nuclear reactor at the outset of the HBO miniseries Chernobyl.
Hers was an admirable loss. It is rare that
any elected official is willing to sacrifice his
or her office over a matter of deeply felt principle.
That said, she has undoubtedly cut herself
off from the possibility of having a positive
influence on the direction of the Republican
Party via electoral politics, no matter how
much she might want to think of her defeat as
1858 redux.
Lincolns run against Douglas for the
Senate wasnt a suicide mission. He came
very close to winning and represented a rising
political movement. His subsequent bid for
the Republican presidential nomination in
1860 was a long shot, but he was a serious figure who had gained a national reputation and
was comfortably in the middle of his partys
consensus.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
Cheney, a pariah within her own party, is
differently situated. Plus, strategically and
temperamentally, she is not Lincolnian.
Although he had firm principles, Lincoln
was always a political pragmatist and fundamentally a party man willing to maneuver
as necessary. Cheneys post-Jan. 6 approach
bears less resemblance to Lincolns than to
that of William Lloyd Garrison, the uncompromising abolitionist publisher who took
unabashedly radical and unpopular positions
and expected the world to move toward him.
As it happens, the world did move toward
Garrison, but in the meantime, he wasnt running for office.
There is zero case for Cheney attempting
to go from the role of prophet without honor
within her party to Republican vote-getter
again.
Its difficult to overstate the magnitude of
Cheneys collapse. She went from winning
her primary with 73% of the vote in 2020, to
garnering a mere 29% that was heavily dependent on Democratic crossover votes.
Cheneys alienation from her party is likely to build on itself. Already, she has said that
shed find it very difficult to support Gov.
Ron DeSantis, the leading Republican alternative to Trump. In so doing, she is identifying
herself with a fraction of a fraction of the
party that is so small it is all but nonexistent.
Even if Cheney ran in the 2024 primary and
got some traction, shed only be taking voters
from some other more viable alternative to
Trump.
An independent run wouldnt make any
more sense. Again, if Cheney became a factor, the chances are that shed be a place for
Republicans repulsed by Trump to park their
votes rather than go all the way to Biden. Just
as with a prospective primary run, shed be
helping Trump at the margins.
Captain Ahab may have made a few mistakes in judgment in his stewardship of the
Pequod, but at least he never allowed himself
to affirmatively assist his great adversary, the
White Whale.
One thing thats been remarkable about
Cheneys performance the last couple of years
is how apparently clear-eyed shes been about
what it means for her future in the House of
Representatives, namely that she wouldnt
have one. In contrast, a presidential run of
any sort would be giving in to delusion. If
Lincoln was dogged, he was never fanciful.
Cheney should realize that shes taken a path
that, whatever its other advantages, doesnt
end in electoral vindication.

and poor ways to use the money. They keep running businesses out of town.

LETTERS
Local library has
value beyond Queer
controversey
Dear Sir,
This letter is addressed to the Editor, but for
all intent and purpose it is a letter to the citizens
of Garnett and Anderson County. I began working at the library in 1968. I worked there for ten
years. I then worked elsewhere before returning
to the library in the fall of 1990. I worked there
for twenty-eight more years before retiring in
2018. I would like to proudly say this to the folks
of Anderson County, from the youngest to the
eldest, our Garnett Public library is a wonderful
and resourceful place to anyone who chooses to
walk througjh its doors.
Is every book in the library something I want
or need to read? No. Are books in the library,
whether they be fiction, non-fiction, young
adult or childrens books being "pushed" on the
public? Again no. If you ask for suggestions of
authors, need material for certain projects or
directions in general, they will help you. The
library is a wealth of knowledge for anyone and
any perspective. It is a community gathering
place.
For years our library has offered programs
for preschool children, school age children and
adults. The staff has worked long and hard to
encourage our community to use the library.
It is open six days a week, Monday through
Saturday and some evenings to serve the public.
They have taken their programs to the public,
ice cream socials, children's programs at our
schools, inviting authors and local artists and
students to display their work, and could often
be found delivering books to those that couldn't
get in. I felt the need to say these things because
I feel there might be some misconceptions and
erroneous information being advanced.
The graphic book, "Gender Queer" by
Kobabe was printed in 2019. It is a memoir
about Kobabe's upbringing and life with the
struggles of gender identity. It is not a particularly comfortable topic for many people,

Mystery solved – Its a dog tag
Colony Christian Church – Pastor shares
lessons learned during backpacking trip
DIGGING UP THE PAST
Pastor Chase shared some
lessons from the trail that he
learned while on the backpacking trip in Wyoming which we
can apply as we journey on our
path through life. First, strip off
the weight! Even a wristwatch
is heavy at 10,000 feet. Dont
carry the extra weight that will
slow you down and wear you
out. Hebrews 12:1 says strip
off every weight that slows us
down, especially the sin that so
easily trips us up. Lay down
your burdens and strip yourself of sin. The second lesson
is to fuel yourself with real
power. Cosmic brownies are
a nice snack, but to maintain
the energy you need to carry
all your gear on your back over
the mountain to your destination, you need a calorie packed,
protein rich, hearty meal.
Similarly, we must consume

Many of you recall that in
my column two weeks ago I
shared a photo of a special tag
that I needed help in identifying (original photo needing
help identifying is on top).
Would you believe that this
past week I received five phone
calls and e-mails from gentlemen identifying it? All five of
them identified it as a "Dog
Tag".
This tag is not to be confused
with a dog license tag. The purpose of this tag is, if your dog
runs away, gets lost or hurt,
the person or persons finding it
can notify the owner by calling
collect to the number and name
printed on it.
As you can see in the photo
to the right, this tag is securely
fastened directly to the collar.
Also while talking to a couple
of these men, I learned that
most of these tags were made
and sold locally by a gentleman
named Loren Hinkle (Henkle).

help and I want to say a personal Thank You to each of the five
men who got in touch with me.

Our library has been the winner of the best small library in
Kansas. Well deserved, as they offer so many programs and services to the community. The staff is professional and extremely
competent. To pull books from a public library or school library
is wrong. A library that is doing their job has one or more books
that would offend at least one person, all the way from The Art of
the Deal to whatever. I believe that censorship grows out of fear,
and because fear is contagious parents are easily swayed. Book
banning satisfied their need to feel in control of their childrens

A 2017 study published
by the National Bureau
for Economic Research
showed that if all states
deregulated their zoning
laws only halfway to the
level of Texas, a state
regarded for low zoning
regs, their GDP would
increase by 12% due to
more productive workers and opportunities.
Taking a more conscientious approach to zoning
instead of having ineffective subsidies could be a
place for housing growth.
If communities like
Shawnee County want to
portion. The problem wasnt
with the amount of the donation. The problem was that
they lied to God. We need to
take an honest look at our
lives and determine if we have
actually given our whole life to
Jesus or if we are holding parts
back that we dont want to surrender. Dont play dumb, God
knows.

attract remote workers,
then they should petition
state lawmakers to help it
happen. Reduced regulation on tax nexus eligibility conditions, employer
withholding for shortterm work, and more reciprocity agreements with
other states on taxes all
help promote business.
Long-term solutions to
making Kansas communities more livable outperform robbing Peter to
pay Paul, like subsidies
favored by politicians
of both major parties.
Innovative policies can
reduce costs and government burdens and make
cities like Topeka a better
place to live.

The Anderson County Hospital to offer pain
management offered through outpatient specialty clinic
Garnett, Ks. (August 25, 2022)
Anderson County Hospital has
added a new pain management
clinic to its list of specialty services.
Adam Madl, DO, with
Saint
Lukes
Anesthesiology
Specialists, now
provides a specialty clinic at
the
hospital
in Garnett for
patients who suffer from chronic
or acute pain.
Madl
Pain clinics
at
Anderson
County Hospital are currently
scheduled on the first and third
Tuesdays and second and fourth
Thursdays of each month. Dr.
Madl will expand his service to
include a pain clinic at Allen
County Regional Hospital later
this fall and will transition the
Thursday clinics to Iola.
Were excited to have Dr. Madl
treating patients at our Kansas
regional hospitals, shared Bev
Shaul, Director of Nursing, Allen
County Regional Hospital and
Anderson County Hospital. Pain
clinics will be scheduled weekly,
alternating between the two hospitals. This will provide scheduling options and allow patients
to see the doctor more quickly,
while still keeping close to home
for care.
Dr. Madl is board-certified
in pain medicine and anesthesiology. He specializes in providing interventional, opioid-free
options to achieve pain relief,
treating minor to more debilitat-
ing pain conditions.
Common conditions treated
include axial neck and back pain,
radicular neck and back pain (sciatica), spinal stenosis, post-laminectomy syndrome or failed back
surgery syndrome, post- herpetic
neuralgia, myofascial pain, neuropathic pain, sacroiliac (SI) joint
pain, and complex regional pain
syndrome (CRPS).
During an initial in-person
consultation, Dr. Madl will order
appropriate imaging and discuss
next steps, which may include a
referral to physical therapy along
with scheduling other outpatient
procedures such as nerve blocks
or injections.
Patients can expect to discuss
the different options available
for their pain therapy, said Dr.
Madl. I will work closely with
my patients and their families,
providing guidance to help make
the best decision based on each
patients unique situation.
Dr. Madl likes to get to know
his patients and learn what their
specific goals are, whether thats
casting a fishing rod, going on a
trip, playing with a grandchild,
or being able to return to work. I
want to help motivate my patients
by focusing on the activities they
enjoy most, and together, we will
work to relieve the burden of
pain.
Dr. Madl was born and raised
in northeast Kansas and has
always been drawn to rural communities and the people who
live there. He understands the
challenges of rural medicine and
looks forward to bringing the
latest medical therapies to his
patients right where they live.
After earning his medical degree from Midwestern
University in Glendale, Arizona,
Dr. Madl completed a residency in anesthesiology at the
University of Kansas Medical
Center, followed by a chronic
pain fellowship at UCLA. He has
practiced in both hospital-based
and private practice settings, but
his passion is in rural, critical
access medicine. In his free time,
Dr. Madl enjoys exercising and
spending time outdoors – hunting,
fishing, or helping with chores on
his familys farm.
To schedule a pain management consultation with Dr.
Adam Madl at Anderson County
Hospital in Garnett, please call
785-204-8002. To learn more, visit

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 8-30-2022 / SUBMITTED
On Thursday, September 29, the Friends of the Prairie Spirit Rail Trail along with the Kansas Department
of Wildlife & Parks are teaming up to give physically limited individuals a chance to experience the
Prairie Spirit Rail Trail.
Prairie Spirit Rail Trail rides
to return after 3 year hiatus
crop year has dampened initial
optimism.
I expect to hear average
to maybe slightly lower than
average yields due to the dry
and warm weather that we had
this summer, said Kansas
State University Extension
Agriculture Agent Ryan Shaub.
Remember that a lot of our
corn was planted late as we
were wet and cool in the early
part of the spring.
Analysis from earlier this
month by the U.S. Department
of Agriculture estimated 70
percent of Kansas corn crop
would be drought affected. A
little over 45,000 acres of corn
were planted in Anderson
County in 2021, yielding some
5 million bushel at an average
of a little better than 116 bushel
per acre. A performance graphic published by USDA earlier
in August showed Kansas corn
for 2022 dropping some 25 percent below general performances for 2018-2021.
Soybean crops also looked
to be losing ground according
to the USDA analysis since
the heat and dry of July and
August, dropping to 30 percent
of the crops progress in those
benchmark years.
Soybeans are still up in the
air, Shaub said. If we receive
some moisture we have the
potential to still have a good
bean year, but on the flip side
if we stay dry it could really
impact yields.
Last years soaking summer rains gave their own sets
of problems with flood damage and field access. Through
August of last year Anderson
County was 9 inches ahead of
the standard month-to-date
measured precipitation. The
county gets about 41 inches of
rainfall per year.
Derek Beck and Debra Dell
of Garnett were united in marriage at 3:30 p.m. on August 6,
2022 at the Rocking V Ranch in
Wakarusa, Kansas.
Parents of the groom are
Robert & Lisa Beck, Darlene
& James Bennett. The brides
parents are Theresa Kettler
and stepfather Clint Kettler.

information on file in their
recent loan applications, and

The timing of the announcement has led Republicans to
accuse the President of using
questionable executive powers to conjure an election year
bribe the cost of which will be
foisted on millions of taxpayers who never took out student
loans aimed at buying votes
of those debtors in an effort
to minimize expected losses in
U.S. House and Senate elections
this November. Democrats
have echoed the Presidents
claim that student debt has
hampered the economy and the
earning ability of those who
owe, and is a necessary element of Covid recovery.
The website WallutHub, in
its report 2022s States with
the Most and Least Student
Debt, lists Kansas as among
states with some of the highest
per capita student loans, with
an average of $37,000 owed per
borrower. WalletHub ranked
all 50 states according according to their share of students
with debt, unemployment
rate among those age 25-34,
and those with past-due loan
balances. Kansas ranked 19
overall; 18 in debt and 33rd in
terms of work opportunities.
The study did not say whether
those debtors would meet the
$125,000 annual income cap.
Kansas also ranked well in
home ownership among that
targeted age range, also at 19.

ple that with graphics and it
becomes very uncomfortable.
This book is in the adult non-fiction section of the library.
It is not in the young adult
or children's section, it is not
being "pushed" or "promoted"
in any way. It was checked out
very little until folks requested
it be removed, banned or censored. I read the entire book,
I found it confusing. I don't
recommend it. However, it is
not illegal (unlike porn sites
on public access computers).
In a perfect world,parents
would talk to their children
about their sexuality, they
could comfort and guide them.
I don't believe the format of
this book is helpful. Having
said that, when you push banning or censoring books, you
are on a very slippery slope.
You have to ask yourself what
qualifies you to judge what
should or should not be censored or banned. What offends
you might not offend someone
else, and vice versa. There are
a lot of materials, art, romance,
language, murder and mayhem
that should not be in children's
hands, but should they be
banned? I think not.

Connie Hatch.
Number of visitors who
signed our log was 168. A
variety of guild members
donated raffle prizes. The winning numbers were selected
by Carol Ann Feuerborn. I
notified the winners and Liz
Drennan, K State Extension
Office, agreed to hold the items
for winners to pick up.
Our quilt judge was Kim
Finney from Ottawa.
Set up of the display went
much faster this year because
we had experience from last
year. We used the 8 panels and
were able to hang most of the
large quilts. The fair board
purchased a roll of heavy
gauge clear vinyl and we used
that to cover items on the table.
Thanks to Connie Hatch for
making that suggestion.
The doors were supposed to
be open at 8 am, however, there
were a few days where no one
unlocked the doors until 8:30.
The Extension Office is considering making arrangements
for us to pick up the key and
unlock in the morning.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, August 30, 2022
LOCAL
Labor Day, September 5, 2022
What is Labor Day, who founded it and when it began?
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,
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.
Enjoy your
Labor Day!
2×3
GSSB
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.

We all depend on the strength of the
American Worker
America didnt become the most prosperous nation on earth by chance.
Working Americans built this nation
from the ground up, embracing very
American qualities like creativity, ingenuity and originality. They in turn depended on the families that supported
them. Through challenge, trouble and
strife, quite amazingly, the whole thing
worked.
Whether teachers, farmers, office workers, equipment operators or production employees, the local businesses
below recognize the immeasurable
value of our local labor force in building our community and maintaining its
greatness.
Enjoy your Labor Day Holiday.
