Trenton 1 does not depend upon Lookout 1 mountain for coal. Tnerc is Foal 1 in Lookout mountain near this | point, but w» have no doubt but that a strike would be in order if miners were compelled to work the veins on ton scales.

Contracts have been let for the erection of several fine residences. Hofartne Chattanooga builders are ahead, having aecured some of the finest jobs. Advice to a New State The people of Montana held their election some days ago and chose a legislature, but the republican offi ciais were not satisfied with the re sult and are dow engaged in revising the election with a view to bringing it out on their side.
