 7Ae Neao Telegraph. poles, which for nearly a year have been submerged in pure Ltchfeld county mud, atong the line ot the Conn.

This is only another Illustration of the importance of preserving town anG county records. The real estate records o1 the town of Salisbury will probably be an other illustration of this careless way ot preserving those valuables, as we see by tho warrant for our October meeting, there ii no provision made for talking this matter up at that time.

If there is man in towr who thinks; honestly thinks the town ot Salisbury does not need 8 new town ball we would like to see the house in which h. is content to live. We shall expect to heal the honest opinions of the people in regard this matter at this meeting, as to the best course to be pursued for the interest of tue so1s0le toaon.
