Canaan may be conservative village but we get around to it and we do the right thing after while. The select mems notice in our columns prohibit ing the dumping of ashes etc, in the streets is another proof of it. We are las 8 community not as bad as we once were in the matter of decent streets, as we remember when portions of roads were composed of plaster, cabbage stumps, apples. onions, shingles with the nails in, and barrel hoops. All that has been done away with and now the annoying ashes are to be kept out of our roads. It is we'll. Some day we will probably find the right scheme for carrying on vil- lage improvement in which people who enjoy the benefits of street lights and paths through the snow will have to help pay for the same. At present part of the village is in darkness because some who have contributed money to the Village Improvement Society for the last dozen years are tired of paying for other peoples benefits. Forty-nin sub- scribers to village improvement in a village of 938 inhabitants, of 250 fami- lissl Absurd. We ought to be in the dark.

Winsted Post Office Muddie.

The post office matter at Winsted re- mains unsettled and is still "a burning question" There are now eight prom inent candidates in the field, all good mon, any one of whom could fill the bill with credit to himself and honor to his constituents. An exchange recent ly published the history of the post office war in Winsted It seems that the struggle began long before the Revolutionary war, and still continues. Of course the phases of this post office fight change every time the administra. ton at Washington changes, Some of the time, therefore. the fight at Win sted is between democrats alone, and some of the time between republicans
 At present the great majority of the people at Winsted want only one office with carriers. There were 1900 sigma lures upon the petition for one office. and the great majority of those signers were the common every day people who want their letters delivered at their doors. The great majority of the monied men want two offices, and some people want three offices in that bor- ough.
 The candidates are as follows: E. O. Buck, W. H. Tanner, Frank c. Gates, Edward Hunt, Joseph H. Vaill, Char les K. Hunt, George H. Alvord, R. R. Noble.
 For many years the people of Win sted have quarreled over the question of one, two, or three post offices. No one dare predict when that knotty problem will be solved. The writer does not purpose to take hand in this post office fight, but if suggestions are in order we would suggest trying the experiment. of one main post office and two sub offices, all to be connected by pneumatic tubes, and telephones or speaking tubes. h such case per- son could step into whichever sub office was most convenient, and by either telephone or speaking tube di- rect the postmaster at the main office to "blow my mail hither."

On the Most Important Local Question
 We Have at Present to Discuss.
 Opinions expressed publicly through this newspaper by people in the com moner walks of life who live in some distant State lack the interest which is attached to the opinion held by resi- dents of the Western part of Massachu- setts. The former have always a sus- picious halo about them which is absent in the latter. To put it plainly the reader would sooner believe the state ment of man living in East Derby, Conn. than the statement of a resident of Toledo, Ohio and when the Derby citizen courts enquiry, the experience which follows eau certainly be depend ed upon Mir Edward R. Hall is ma chinist, living at 84 New Haven Ave, B. Derby, Conn. Write him if you are in doubt about his statement and ask him if it is not true. Mir Hall says: II had lameness take me in the small of my back. accompanied by pains in my Joins extending over my hips. could not bend over and touch the floor nor straighten up as sharp twinges would catch me in the back. My wife read of Doan's Kidney Pills being positive remedy for this trouble As she was suffering from kidney complaint worse than I, we were both interested in fnd- ing remedy. She had been treated by physicians without being cured and the statement that they were a positive cure led us to obtain them from drug store. Doan's Kidney Pills certainly cured my back both of the lameness and also the pain. and restored energy to me. Mrs Hall was also relieved of the pain and soreness of the kidneys and of distress in the top of the head and back. She can rest nights and is generally in- vigorated We both pronounce them the best kidney remedy we have ever used. No doctors medicine ever did us so much good and we have no hesita- tion in recommending strongly Doan's Kidney Pills for backache and weakness of the renal organs"
