BUILDING
STATEMENT OF THE BUILDING
TRADES COUNCIL OF THE
SITUATION.

Butte. Mont, May II, 1S99.-To the
Editor: From reports which appeared
day before yesterday in regard to the
present differences which now exist be-
tween some Of the contractors of the
unions affiliated with the Butte Build
ing Trades Council. which might lead the
general public to believe that the de-
mand for an eight-hour work day by
some of the unions was the primary
cause of those differences, but such, we
believe lis not the case, and now the
Building Trades Council wishes to make
the following statement: The trouble
began with the plumbers, because all of
the plumbing shops of the city, with the
exception of the Western Plumbing COM
pany, Mr.. Kruger, Stems & Bryant
locked out the journeymen, and it was
not on account of the eight-hour question
either, because the plumbers rave been
working eight hours for the past four or
five years. The bricklayers and stone
masons demanded eight hours, but they
had given the contractors four months
notice, in order to give the contractors a
chance to prepare for this change, and
this demand was readily granted on the
1st of May by Thomas Rowan, Larry
Burke, Phil Wakeman and Thomas Man
ley. The plasterers for the last few
q navy "oIhN" SISul Hpulo diu IdNC
no grievance, and neither have the build
ing laborers, who have declared them
selves willing to work the same hours as
the mechanics they attend. The fathers
have likewise for the last few years
worked only eight hours and have no
grievance. The carpenters made no de-
mand for any change whatever, but
abided by the old scale of nine hours at
so cents an hour. The painters and the
quarrymen demanded eight hours and
got it, and have no grievance.
The balance of the building trades
unions made no demand for any change.
Now then. where does the trouble origi-
note from? Certainly not from the jour
neymen. The builders exchange made
several propositions to some of the unions,
but the uniOn involved did not deem it
advisable to entertain those propositions
at the present time, believing that their
respective trade rules were satisfactory
at least for this year. Now the Building
Trades Ouncil wishes to announce to
the general public that in an emergency
they are ready and willing to start and
complete any building and perform any
labor appertaining to the building crafts
with or without the assistance of the
builders exchange. as the case may be.
Respectfully yours,
PRESS COMMITTEE OF BUILDING
TRADES COUNCIL.

GRADUATING EXERCISES.

The graduating exercises of the High
school were continued yesterday after
noon, the graduates being Jennie Bennett
and Sarah McMsnis. The subject of the
latter was Romance Languages" in
which she said in part:
1.-The languages spoken in italy, France,
Spawn, Portugal M Roumania are class
ed under the general head of lam
guages. They had a common origin and
are the immediate descendants of the
Roman tongue.
about 1873 BE-, Rome was at her
height; she was mistress of the civilized
world, as her victorious leaders had, year
after year., brought under her control rich
and powerful nations. 1t is from this time
that these languages date their beginning.
Wherever the Latin ~conquerers went, and
more especially in Italy, Spain, France, in
parts OF Switzerland ard in Dacla, the
Latin language became tie accepted one.
But Rome was not fated to rule forever.
"He who puts his best thoughts in the
richest and purest of language aids in de-
veloping the minds and spirits of his fell
low beings. There are many of these who
have given to the world great MASTER
pieces in their mother tongue, and wheth-
err these be in Italian, French, Spanish,
Portuguese or Roumanian, they have
helped to make life more pleasant for
many"
Miss Bennett spoke on American ORA
matte Art" she said:
charlotte Cushman, the representative
woman Of American drama, says Of the
art: I think I love and revere all arts
equally, only putting my own first above
the theirs because in it I recognize the
union and elimination of all. To me it
seems as if when God conceived the
world, that was poetry; He formed it, and
that was sculpture; He colored it, and
that was painting; and, the GROWING
work Of all, He peopled it with living be-
ings, and that was the grand, living, eter-
nal drama. Admiration for the artist,
and love for the woman of .spotless thar
acter, whose fine mind could conceive a
thought so grand as the foregoing. should
place her at he head of dramatic art in
America were she not, as she was, the
greatest exponent of 1t.
1--WE often hear that the drama creates
nothing-that when the actors PERSONAL
ity is withdrawn nothing is left. Granted;
but it often restores and adds to the gen.
eral stock Of ideas. The astronomer and
naturalist create nothing. but they con-
tribute much to the enlightenment of the
world Life seizes upon the drama for
the p~rolongation of pleasure, inevitable
fount of solace from which weary hu-
drinks with fervOr.'"
