Wepresent our readers in another part
of this days paper condensed account
of the proceedings ofthe Wing State Con-
vention which assembled in Hartford on
Wednesday CT last week. 1t will be seen
that the candidates of last year, have all
been unanimously nominated for State
officers, This was probably anticipated
by our friends generally in the county
and throughout the State, aud we are con-
fident that no ticket could have been
presented, which would have met with
a more cordial support They are men
who, for their political consistency, tai
ents and patriotism, deserve and enjoy IN
a pre- eminent degree, the confidence and
esteem the Wing party Of Connection,
and indeed of all parties. In the veil
contested campaign ofl945 &, when party
spirit ran riot and deception and caiumny
did their utmost, our candidates passed
the fiery ordeal unscathcd. Even the
lynx-eyed monster of political envy could
discover naught against them.
The Hon. CLARK B1ssELL, our nominee
for the Office of governor, has long been
known as one of the purest and most up
right Judges that ever sat upon the bench
ofour Supreme and Superior Courts
Uniting talents of high order, with a
long life Of experience in public affairs,
he is peculiarly qualified for the honora-
BILE station TO which the people of the
Commonwealth have resolved 10 elevate
him. Let US not be content with giving
him bare majority, but, following the
glorious examples of the States around
us, let that majority be counted by thou
Sands. ,..
Mr.. McCuRDY, whose name stands up
on the ticket as candidate for the Sec

man, and is extensively and favorably
known. For many wears he has peer. a
leadips memper of the Legislature, and
as Speaker of that body has distinguish
ed himself as one of the best pres-
ding officers in the. State. Dignified in
his appearance. popular and democratic in
his manners, and, withaI, gentlemansof
taste and education, he is just such man
as ought 10 preside over the deliberations
OF our Senate. He is strong man with
the people, ard will poll n heavy vote.
DR.. ROBERTSON, of New Haven. the gen
lleman who IS to be our next Secretary Of
State, is not politician by profession,
and previous to his nomination last year
was not perhaps so widely known as some
who are less d serving. He is Virgin
ian.by birth, but thorough New England
er in his education and feelings. Since
h is graduation at Yale College, in 1928,
has been resident of New Haven, where
he has been extensively engaged as
manufacturer. He has represented the
F" city Of elms' in the Legislature, and
WuCHcNcI tlC Is huO"u Is CSlCCIjCu rs u
gentleman of high ability, and strict in
tegriiy.
Mr. GILBERT formerly held the office of
Treasurer two or three years, and is pro-
verbal for his honesty and integrity, He
is deacon in one of the Baptist Church
es in Hartford. .....,.m .-. s .....
Judge CArL1N is too we'll known to the
voters of this county 10 require special
notice from US. AS representative in
both branches of The Legislature, and as
Judge Of the Litchfeld County Court
he has shown himself an able legislator,
and a just jurist. The people of this
county will be glad of an opportunity of
again .es:ifying their confidence in him.
