Telegraph C&S Alpine west side

On the west side of Alpine tunnel the other day looking for telegraph poles, I found two downed poles not too far apart that had a wire the same size and type as transmission wire that went from the top to the bottom of the pole guided by staples. It definitely was not a guy wire. Were these ground wires for lightning or something else?
