LABOR UNIONS ARE VALUABLE TO ALL. Man Who . Digs, Says Mr. Hearst, Is Worthy of , I His Wages. ir . If (By Associated Press.) NORFOLK, Va., Sept. 2. William Randolph Hearst or New York and Samuel Qompera, president of the American Federation of Labor, were the principal speakers at today's great Labor day celebration at tho James town exposition. The weather -waa clear and thousands ef people from all parts of tidewater Virginia at tended. . ' ' ; Following an addresa of welcome by President Tucker of the exposition, Mr. Hearst waa Introduced and given n ovation. Mr. Hearst said: -My friends: Labor Day should , rank with the Fourth of .July as a characteristic American holiday. The j Fourtft of July commemorates the ' means by which we gained our Inde- pendence as a nation, and Labor Day! commemorates the means by which we have made our nation the most powerful, . the most progressive, the moat prosperous of any in the world. Home nations have grown great by conquering their weaker neighbors. Others have grown rich by despoil ing .dependent colonies, but this nation ha grown to be the greatest and rich est! of all through the peaceful de velopment of lta own resources; by the honest labor of its citizens. In 4hU country -labor Is universal and Is universally honored and ap ,etUsU la. thl ,.entry there- is no v.-ok.io-iag, " but every man worthy of tho name is a working man. 'm mis country mere iv pv umnn u&i men that work with their hands, while another class Work with their brains. In Amerloa all men work with their brains ana wncn we say inat can laborers are the most efficient on earth, we do not mean that th-dr hand ' are different from those of other men, but that their minds are clearer, quicker and more effective than those of other menr in this country the mechanics work, the farmers work, the clerks work, the business men work and even the millionaires work. We ave no aris tocracy save that of Intellect and in dustry, and the proudest title of our most successful millionaire is "Cap tain of Industry." In a country where all men are working men 'there should be greater community of interest, better mutual understanding and sympathy. It is in behalf of this better understanding that I speak today. I have no pa tience with the prejudices which exist between alleged classes when the classes themselves do not really exist. There is no reason for hostility be tween employer and employe, be tween capitalist and wage-earner. Capital Is but the accumulation of wealth whloh employer and employu create together. Wages are but the division of pro fits. Both employer and employe are entitled to their share of the profits," and as long as the division is just and equable there is no occasion for conflict. If the division Is not Just. It can always be made so by arbitration, and there is still no occasion for con flict. , Let us all regard one another as fellow working men and treat one another with consideration and tol erance. Let us all labor harmonious ly to create wealth In order that there may be the greatest possible amount to be Justly divided. A condition of class hatred such as has developed in Colorado is a curse to this country. I hope that such a condition has been averted In San Francisco from which city I have Just come but much has been said in the East to misrepresent the union working men of San Francisco. To set them right, to do them Justice. It Is only necessary (Continued on Page Seven.) DR.STROUSE CLOSES CHATAUQUA ' ill HENDERSONVILLE AND GETS CUP HKNDERSOW'ILLE.
