THE soLDIERs' MONUMENT TO MoRRows TOWN
| MEETING
We hope there will be full attendance
at the special town meeting to morrow. Tie
proposed soldiers monument is something in
which every intelligent and patriotic citizen
! is interested, and there should be full and
careful discussion Of the whole subject
! What the town wants to accomplish in the
case il to secure the best and the most sttrac-

erected for the sum Of money which may be
appropriAted for the purpose. IL is very evi.
dent that our choice in the matter OF design
need not be confined to any one or two Pho

ones have already been publicly shown and
the purpose should be to select from these
or from others that may be ofered-the one
which gives best expression to the feeling Of
our people for the men who gave their lives
for their country. But this choice cannot
properly be made in open town meeting or in
committee of the whole. The views of the
voters should find free expression in the
| meeting but the final choice should be left
to the authorized agents OF The town to whom
the law delegates the work Of ere citing the

THE GREAT EsrEY ORGAN AND PIANO HOUSE,

We understand that the Estey ORGAN
company will shortly make new departure in
styles OF organ cases. direct and positive in
novation from the old rut in which manufsc
turers have been moving for years past. just
what the Transformation will be we are not
INFORMED, but We know that it will be positive
ly something new, and as such will be a vel
come feature. II 1t is in the possibilities for
successful new departure, then the Esteys
are the parties to carry it to success. The
great hstey organ and piano house is without
doubt one OF the largest, possibly the largest,
IN the world. The organ plant at Brattleboro,
w., and the Immense piano factory at New
YORK, give great facilities for production of
instruments, while their numerous branch
houses In the more prominent cities of
America and Europe give facilities for dis
triouling the production that are not exeelled
by any. The Esteys have always taen fortu.
