About the first of August we were in- quiring what had become of the base ball spirit ill Canaan. Since then it has been in evidence and local people have had the opportunity of seeing some base ball games. We believe the people of Canaan are indebted to the Stanton boys for any base ball at all for the past five years, and if they do not play an errorless game every time we do not think it reason that any one of them should be retired to the bench. They have gathered about them seme boys who play cracking good ball for amateurs and the abilities of the youthful Ga naan team is surprise to outsiders. Two years ago Canaan went into semi professional base ball and got quite a reputation, but we believe outside of the cold hearted base ball scientists that our people had rather see team of local boys playing as well as they can for the mere fun and glory of the thing, than to see hired men earning their wages. Let's yell for the Stanton boys and their Canaan team.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

Editor of Conn Wester7a Nelcs.
 It would seem, in view of the neces- sity of trolley line in northern Ltch- field Go. to connect with the Berkshire line, and with the traffic that such a line would give the N. Y., N. H. SS H. R. R., that that corporation is behind the times if they do not take steps to build the line, and forestall others who will build it in time if they do not. They have plant at Falls Village that would furnish all the power necessary to run such line; they own a branch line to Watertown, and they could run the trolley cars direct from Waterbury via. Bantam Lake and Litchfield, Goshen and Cornwall Hollow, to Canaan by the use of that power. Not only that, but the Shepaug R. R. could be operated as a trolley with vastly more benefit to the public than it is as a steam railroad, with the connections it would make with line from Waterbury to Canaan via. Litchfeld:
 AS MT. Howard Carter said in a recent communication Ill your paper, The trolley is a different thing from the steam road" It creates travel and traffic where none existed before.
 Just think what an immense benefit to northern Litohfield County such sys- tenn would be. Much of our most beauti- ful scenery, our mountains and many charming lakes are inaccessible to the ordinary traveller, as they only can be reached by team, and at a considerable expense in time and pocket. There are no less than five lakes that are within a short walk of the probable lay out of such line, to say nothing of the fine fmountain views, and places of public interest.
 The town of Goshen, which in aver age altitude is the highest in the state, with parts of Cornwall and Canaan, would offer advantages to the summer health seekers such as no other towns in the state could give.
 Yours for the trolley, HARRY SEDGwICK. Sept, II, 1903.

which it copied from the Pittsburg Post:
 According to we'll matured plans, not only of the great railroad corpora tions of the country, but of the larger investors of capital in railroad opera tions, there is likely to be a general cessation of building operations during
 1904, which will make that year memor able to the trades interested. The state
 ment of one of the largest contracting concerns in the country connected with
 railroad construction work is the basis
 for the assertion that at least $1S0, ,000, 900
 werth of building operations proposed
 for 1904 have actually been called of, , and plans have been recalled from arch
 itects and engineers. It is also said by
 the same authority that, so far as
 known, there will be nothing in the
 shape of new work undertaken ill the
 coming year, and when the present con
 tracts are completed period of waiting
 will ensue. It will be waiting for the general labor situation to settle down, and the end of the factional wars and strikes, which have almost destroyed confidence in building.
 It is said that the Pennsylvania rail road which has now enormous improve nents under way, and contemplated at least as much more, or $oO,Ooo,OOO uur1ng 1904, has decided to withdraw all of | these plans and do nothing further with them until there is more placid con dition of the labor market. Information
 given out shows that in New York alone there is at least $60, 900, 900 of new build
 ing for 1904 involved in the general plan of withdrawal. In Chicago, where the labor troubles have been continuous for ;S hat SIG, ,0O0, 900 of new work has been aban- doned. In Pittsburg Henry H. Phipps
 has declared that he would not turn an- other stone in the city, except where operations have already been started. The delay ill the extensive improve
 ments contemplated by H. c. Prick has
 been stated to be due entirely to the un-
 reliable state of the labor field, and a
 similar condition is said to exist with
 the H. E. Oliver improvements now already begun.
