Oliver Butter and Robert .Lucock,
local miners officials at Freder-
lex and Puritan. The information
charged the defendants with violat-
ing the state industrial law by call
ing a general strike of coal miners
in November of last year, shortly
after the nation-w wide coal strike
had been called by international
miners officials.
On November 19, 1919. the day
following the strike call, the state
industrial commission ordered the
union officials in Colorado to with
draw, rescind and cancel the strike
order. The commissions order was
disobeyed, following which GRIM
jnal informations were filed against
the miners leaders. The defend
ants were arrested and released on
bonds.
Counsel for the defendants held
that neither the district court nor
the industrial commission had Jur-
isdiction in the premises.
Judge Bradfield ruled that both
tribunals had ample jurisdiction,
declaring that the calling of the
strike was inimical to public in
terests in that it involved general
suspension of coal mines at time
when fuel was one of the necessl-
ties of life. The court intimated
that had the strike been called at
only one mine the interests of the
people would have been seriously
jeopardied.
It is expected the miners lead
ers will take an appeal to the state
supreme court.

EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE
Staged in Pilgrim Church on Last
 Thursday Evening

An audience that crowded the Pilgrim Chnrch Parlors, was royalty entertained last Thursday evening, when the younger and older children of the Church, trained by MT. and Mrs. Skinner and Miss May Smith, and very ably assisted by other local talent, gave an original production, which from the standpoint of clean wit and humor, equalled, if not sur passed anything seen in Canaan in many day.
 If there had been a prize offered for the best "act", it would have strained the ability of the judges, for everything was done so we'll, and from the moment the "Band" began to play, the enthusiasm of the audi ence showed that they had Caught the spirit" of the show, and each number was received with increasing interest and pleasure.
 In these days of general unrest, and desire for cratic entertainments it was delightful to see such good clean, bright, healthy production, and clearly demonstrated, a fact to take cheer from, that the people still enjoy the older methods of pleasure when staged with such unaffected ability.
 Too much praise cannot be extend ed to MT. and Mrs. Skinner and all who helped to make it such marked success, for treating the Village. to this classic, and it is sincerely to be hoped, that later in the year, it may be repeated in the Town Hall, where larger number of people may be able to enjoy an evening of excep- tional good cheer.

YOUR LIBERTY BONDS
 ARE STILL WORTH PAR
Treasury Department Urges Us to Buy More at
 Low Figure

The following article direct from the Treasury Department of the United States, is of interest to hun dreds in this vicinity who purchased Liberty Bonds as a patriot pre- viously to this date. The Depart ment also urges buying bonds now for personal benefits.
 The United States Government borrowed money from you to finance the War. You hold the Governments promise to pay you back. This prom ise is called a Liberty Bond or Vic tory Note. On this Bond is stated the conditions under which the Government borrowed the money from you.
 For instance: If you hold a Bond of the Third Liberty Loan, it states that on April 18th and October 18th of each year until maturity, you will receive interest on the amount you paid for the Bond. Other issues bear other rates of interest and other maturity dates, all of which are clearly stated on the Bond.
 Now, if you keep your Bond until the date when the Government pays you in full for it, you do not need to worry if, in the meantime, the price is low one day or high the next. You and Uncle Sam are living up to your agreement with each other, and nei- ther will lose by it.
 On the other hand, if you sell your Liberty Bond now, you will find that the man you sell it to will not give you a dollar for every dollar you paid for it. The price has been brought down because so many people Are offering to sell their Bonds. If the market is flooded with tomatoes, and there are few to be had, the price goes up. The same is true of Liberty Bonds. Short-sight- ed people are dumping them on the market, and wise ones are buying them.
 The best advice that can be given to the owner of a Liberty Bond is this: Hold the bond you bought dur ing the war; it is as safe and sound as the United States Government itself.
 Buy as many more at the present low rate as you can afford. If you hold them to maturity, you are bound to make the difference be- tween what they sell at now and their face value. You will also re- ceive good interest on your invest ment.
 Hold m In vour I,ihertv Ronds and buy now.

TROLLEY SITUATION
New Bill Before Legislature Likely
 to Go Over

The special street railway bill for Berkshire county, which is now in the house and is designed to provide plan whereby the towns and cities of the county may take over the Berkshire street railway and oper- ate it, in the event the present man agement fails to continue to do SO, will probably be referred to the next general court, upon request of cer- tain business interests of the county who are now trying to map out some plan for running the road. if the present management fails. Rep resentative McAllister of Lee is fath- ering the bill in the house.
 It is regarded as probable that the general transportation area bill, on which the senate postponed action until Tuesday, will be adopted. While designed for the state in general, it will be applicable to Berkshire coun- ty also, in the event that no other legislation is adopted, and will en- able the county to have trolleys, should the present management be forced to give up operating the lines.

OPPOSED TO PLAN
Connecticut Dairymen Seek Relief
 From Daylight Plan

The Connecticut Dairymen's Asso- citation has asked the state board of agriculture to take some action to enjoin the mayors of the cities in Connecticut from enforcing the day light saving plan. The members claim the new plan of hours is a hardship for them and they must have remedy at once. The matter was brought to the attention of the state board of agriculture at the meeting in Middletown Wednesday.
 It is figured that the plan could not be made effective. If the manu- featuring concerns and other indus tries were to begin work an hour earlier days, it would make matters the same as now exist with the rail roads running their schedules along that line. The dairymen are anxious to get some relief from the present situation and will welcome any that may be offered.
