 This mountain section is sparsely settled, and the slopes are covered with forests of commercial timber. In some sections the forests are dense, yet the numerous lumber camps show that inroads are being made upon them. Millions of feet of logs are rafted yearly down the mountain streams to the Tennessee. The lumber is then shipped east, where it is manufactured into furni- ture and shipped south. Chattanoo- ga, however, has within the past year erected a number of woodworking plants, which are shipping their prod ucts to southern points; also to the West Indies and South America.
 These mountains are also rich in coal--the fires of the coke ovens, which are always burning, make the mountain scenery even more Pictur- esque, especially at night. The coal diggerS and the coke burners build their huts in this wilderness, which, when exhausted of its timber, is oc cupied by the farmer, who plants small grain and fruits, and thus this weird section becomes settled. The coal fields of the state, according to the figures of the Chattanooga cham Der of commerce, cover an area of 5000 square miles. and the produc- ton of 1900 was about 4,0O0 OOO tons. There are about 100 mines being worked. The coke product is 5O0,O00 xir 1>l, hot fac are also mined. There are large beds of phosphates in the district tributary to Chattanooga, which have been recently located by eastern capi- talists. Rich marble deposits are be- ing developed, also by northern capi- tai. Some of the finest city resi- dences in Tennessee, and best busi- ness blocks, were built or native mar ble. It has been demonstrated by capitalists that the opportunities for iron plants, pulp mills and textile mills are almost unlimited. The to- bacco crop of 1900 was 60,o00,000 pounds, and a larger area is being cuI- tivated in the level section adjoining the Blue Grass region of Kentucky.
 The manufacturing indus tries of Tennessee are manifold, and it's prod ucts are more varied, perhaps, than those of any other state in the coun- try. From the uplands flow pnre, cold streams, fed from mountain springs, which form drainage and natural irrigation system-as perfect as the most exacting farmer could wish-all flowing into the Tennessee river-the great natural highway of this "Gate City." or open door, con- necting the south. with. the middle and the eastern states. Negro labor is largely employed in the logging and lumber industries, and in get ting out bridge-timbers, telegraph poles, hoop-poles, etc. The colored man is reliable, and the ''colored" camps are noted for the peace and l good order that uniformly prevail, ex- 1 rept when thes psddier of .smconshine'' invstss t4ese t.lQg-toNns.n T Ne

It is, however, true that Ross did establish a Christian mission here, and that, about 1920, there were several Indian missions on the eastern slopes of what is now called Missionary ridge.

whether or not the schoolnaster re- mains abroad indefinitely. However, when these mountains shall be de- nuded of their forests, and perma- nent settlers crowd out the ''log'' men, and perhaps the moonshiner, schools will necessarily come. The valleys and "coves" of this wild section will also ultimately be set tied by a more thrifty people, when education will follow prosperity. This fertile country is undergoing a change for the better-new men with new ideas. and many with capital, are set ting here. Capitalists, professional men and laborers have learned of the many advantages of this section, and as water seeks it's level naturally they are finding room for the employment of their labor and intelligence, and in- vestment for their capital. "Nev Chat tanooga' has been appropriately termed the manufacturing center of the new industrial south.

 While Chattanooga is historically known as a military strategic point, it is also an excellent commercial point and natural highway on the line of travel. \ century ago the Virginians and North Carolinians passed through this ''gateway' seeking homes in Ken lucky and the northwest. They floated down the rivers now known IS the Ten nessee and the Ohio and settled new sec tions. The river banks swarmed with hostile Indians, and their fatboats were frequently attacked and burned by the savages. Finally the whites made a settlement at this point, which served as landing for the fiat boats of e1nigrants, where they tied up' at nights.
 For many years the place was known as "The Landing" and, later, as Ross Landing" so called for John Ross, 3 Cherokee chief. who then lived about four miles from the present city of Chattanooga. He was educated, and

The administration is determined that there shall be an extra session of the next congress, while some of the republicans seem just as determined that one will not be held. That is now as plain as the nose on your face. AIrMcKinley is talking up a settlement
 of the Cuban question as the reason,
 but if the ship subsidy job had been
 allowed to go through he would have probably discovered that an extra ses-
 sion would not be necessary to deal with Cuba. But there are other strings to the extra session bow, and it would not be surprising if the re- publican leaders ill congress so manip-
 l1ated things that one or more of the big appropriation bills failed to get through at this session, and then tried
 to raise a howl that it was the, demo- crats who were to blame for the extra Eession that the failure would make
 necessary. Neither would it be sur prising if the river and harbor bill,
 which is to be reported to the senate
 this week, also failed to get through.
 That would reduce the total of the
 appropriations made by this congress-
 total that has thoroughly alarmed
 the republican leaders since the press
 of the country, regardless of politics,
 have opened up on it. Then there is the bill for the reduction of war tax | and in q fair way to fail, because the
 house conferees encouraged by Secre- tary Gage and other members of the administration. refuse to accept the cut in beer and tobacco taxes made by the senate. The senate is now con- sidering the oleomargarine bill, but whether that measure is to be voted on or merely be used as a club to kill time is not yet clear. One thing is very certain, and that is that the intelligent people of the country know that the
 democrats will not be responsible for the failure of any regular appropria. ton bill. They have at all times as sisted in disposing of the appropriation
 bills, as fast as they were ready, and have repeatedly warned the repub;i
 cans that they were wasting time on the ship subsidy bill that should have
 been devoted to the appropriatieh bills | A r,rFT , <
