Peter J. McGuire
Peter J. McGuire (July 6, 1852 – February 18, 1906) was an American labor leader of the nineteenth century. He co-founded the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America in 1881 along with Gustav Luebkert〔(Guide to the United Brotherhood Of Carpenters And Joiners Of America, Local #88 (Anaconda) Records 1889-1967 ) ''NWDA'', (retrieved 11/19/2012)〕 and became one of the leading figures in the first three decades of the American Federation of Labor. He is credited with first proposing the idea of Labor Day as a national holiday in 1882.
==Early life==
Born in New York City into a poor Irish Catholic family,〔http://www.aflcio.org/About/Our-History/Key-People-in-Labor-History/Peter-J.-McGuire-1852-1906〕 he was a political activist before he became a trade unionist. He became a member in 1873 of a body known as the Committee for Public Safety, which was agitating for unemployment benefits. McGuire was arrested while occupying the office of the city's Police Commissioner, who had refused to grant them a parade permit. Shortly thereafter, he joined with Adolph Strasser, later president of the Cigar Makers' Union, to found the Social Democratic Workingmens Party of North America, a Lassallean socialist organization that proposed to achieve socialism through organization of a socialist party and the organization of trade unions. McGuire founded and edited a paper known as ''The Toiler'', toured the United States lecturing for the party, and worked as a carpenter during the 1870s.
