IS THIS AN "EIGHT HOUR DAY" PARADE IN HOBART?

This real photo card of a parade in Elizabeth Street, Hobart would have been produced not much later than 1913 ... the
first year that a tram route operated along Liverpool Street (you can see the overhead wires in the large view ... see
image link below). Unfortunately, the photographer is not identified on the card printed on "Empire" postcard stock.

My best guess is that it is an "Eight Hour Day" parade ..... any thoughts?
