 Both Sides Satisfied. In discussing Bulletin corresPon- dence in this column a Willimantic writer says relative to the much talk eQ or NOGlllN COElUllSSlO4lSIHIlHp 4LlsLllSL that no howl has been heard over in that part. of the county on the sub- fscr. Very well. This part hS the county is satisfied to let that be the case. No one over this way has any grievance of 8 political nature against Willinantic or it's people and doesn't want any.
 The coi-espoudence in this paper was based on statements made by one of the most prominent members Of -T.- , was of interest in setting forth a side of the case that should have been pre- scented whether in reply to comment on the subject from papers published in WildinIautic or elsewhere.

As well accuse this end of the county df taking advantage because l it ha-s the historic wolf den Aiaxau- 2 deT'5 lake and Roseland park as Of 1 charsing # With holding most of the public omceS. Willimantic is all right but tie fellows up this way who were interested want to be put right, too They haven't anything political that they do not hold fairly.
