Especial Chattanooga Letter.1

Especial Chattanooga Letter.1
 T ROM the picturesque Blue Grass lR region of Kentucky through the III wild, weird mountain scenery to Chattanooga is almost like trans formation to a far distant country, so great is the change. The beautiful hemp fields are changed for the more rugged views of mountain streams, mountaineers, and their primitive cab ins, with moonshiners' huts in the dis tant hooks, almost concealed from view, and only approached by trails. The cabin of the mountaineer woods man is off the roads-the mountaineer has no use for roads, nor the time to make them. These cabins are usually by the side of a swift stream that tumbles down from the mountain, swiftly hurrying on to the Tennessee river, or else perched on the noun tain side, seemingly on the verge of tumbling down, yet hesitating out of regard for its numerous and humble occupants. The mountaineers are
 mainly engaged in the timoer and coal industries. The few who make moonshine whisky do not engage in the illicit distillery for revenue only, but mainly for home consumption. As they are large consumers. accord ing to popular reports, comparative ly little of the stuff is sold. When brought to the city it must be di- ]uted, for the moonshine article has a taste that takes hold, and is some thing like an electric shock to those not accustomed to drinking hemlock, or poison. Periodical efforts are made to stop ''moonshining," but the mountaineers have a system of sig nals by which the approach of an of fcer is rapidly communicated. Many who are not moonshiners encourage the industry, because they want an occasional jug of the electricity. Con- sequentiy, the small farmers, lumber men and coal men are friendly to the moonshiners,. and will throw the gov ernment spies off the track at every opportunity. Furthermore, there is considerable danger in at tempting to "run down. the owners of these primitive distilleries, for they are well armed and are attended by vicious dogs, who not only give
