BY the Standards Special Wire.
BUTTE, July IA very laudable effort
is now being mad ON the part Of the Ia
Dor leaders of our city To resuscitate the
old trades and labor assembly. A. many
will remember. this assembly was first
organized four years ago. The organiza-
ton had about three years OF life and
died IA months ago. The disease is said
by a leading union mnn Ia have been too
much political hauling.
The new assembly will like the old one.
be made up OF or more representatives
from each union, the number depending
upon the size Of the particular union The
new general assembly will have a much
Inc and larger list Of members than the
old u had. The following is nearly "a
complete list Of the various unions which
would % to form the new assembly:
Miners, workingmen's, carpenters, stone
masons. brickmasons, butchers, plas-
tcrcrs and fathers, typographical, tailors,
plumbers, blacksmiths and horseslioers
and finally the adde's benevolent union.
OF the above the butchers organization
sprung into existence this evening.
All the various unions are rapidly wax
ing up to IA realization Of the great ad-
vantage 20 he obtained from an efficient
general assembly. The discussion of this
project was the principal business of the
Workingmen's union last evening at
Union hall. The meeting was a very large
as well as enthusiastic one. There were
not nearly enough chairs to go around
and yet no one got tired of stand
ing, SO great was the inter-
est. The manner in which the
~workingmcn's union has taken hold of
the scheme Of revibing the general assem-
bly, Is very encouraging. The working

the miners have fully recovered from

Special Correspondence of the standard.
BUTTE. July 1.-THE ladies' rifle tour
nanent held at Lake Wilder yesterday
afternoon. participated in by the wives
and lady friends of the Butte Rod and
Gun club, was as ENJOYABLE as IL was
novel. Only five fair marksmen could he
found who were not afrain the guns might

who made Al out of "A possible 80; Mrs. n.

Ii Is the intention of the ladies to organ.

were So poor that no ono could bc found
IN the party with sufficient courage Ia

The only complaint made in connection
will the picnic is ON the ground Of poor
railroad facilities. Going out the train
consisted of three or -four coaches, while
returning only two cars were furnished.
The crowd was SO large that not more
than one-half could secure seats, com.
pclling the others To- stand the entire way,
an arrangement that was taken In any
