　　The History of Labor Day

　　Labor Day differs in every essential from the other holidays of the year in any country， said Samuel Gompers， founder and longtime president of the American Federation of Labor. All other holidays are in a more or less degree connected with conflicts and battles of man‘s prowess over man， of strife and discord for greed and power， of glories achieved by one nation over another. Labor Day.。.is devoted to no man， living or dead， to no sect， race， or nation.

　　Labor Day， the first Monday in September， is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength， prosperity and well-being of our country.

　　Founder of Labor Day

　　More than 100 years after the first Labor Day observance， there is still some doubt as to who first proposed the holiday for workers.

　　Some records show that Peter J. McGuire， general secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and a co-founder of the American Federation of Labor， was first in suggesting a day 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 Matthew Maguire， a machinist， 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， N.J.， proposed the holiday in 1882 while serving as secretary of the Central Labor Union in New York. What is clear is that the Central Labor Union adopted a Labor Day proposal and appointed a committee to plan a demonstration and picnic.

　　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， l883.

　　In l884 the first Monday in September was selected as the holiday， as originally proposed， and the Central Labor Union urged similar organizations in other cities to follow the example of New York and celebrate a workingmen‘s holiday on that date. The idea spread with the growth of labor organizations， and in l885 Labor Day was celebrated in many industrial centers of the country.
