The many friends In this vicinity of
William A. King of Willimantic are
pleased to notice the favorable endorse
ments which he is receiving for the nomi-
nation for attorney general on the repub-
lican state ticket this fall. az
The Hon. William A. King of Windham
Is being supported by the Willimantic
Chronicle and several other state papers
for attorney general upon the republican
ticket. The fitness OF the candidate for
the place Is so generally recognized that
there can be no disagreement upon that
point. He not only Is one Of the ablest
leaders In the republican party, but also
an able and highly respected member Of
the Windham county bar. He, by his
personal service to his party, as we'll as
by his record as lawyer, has made him
self worthy OF this honor. We are told
that he is supported In his ambitions by
the people of Windham county, and they
certainly have as sound a claim upon the
party for consideration as the people of
any county In the state. The Chronicle
says that the present indications are that
he will be enthusiastically nominated.
The Bulletin hopes that the Chronicle Is
reading the signs right, and that Mr..
King will be the republican candidate for
this office.-Noraoich Bulletin.
The Chronicle Is able to state positively
that Mr.. Kenealy of Stamford lie not a
candidate and that William A. King of
Willlmantic is candidate for the nomi-
nation for attorney general. Mr.. Kings
| fitness for this Office Is unquestioned.
His ability as a lawyer and his long ex-
perience at the bar would be a sufficient
qualification, but his prominent and bril-
liant part In the work of the last two ses-
sions of the legislature renders him pecu-
liarly the logical and strong candidate
for the place. Windham county, not
having been represente d in a state Office
during the past two years,.is entitled to
recognition on this years ticket, and In
presenting Mr.. King as Its logical candi-
date the claims of the county will be gen.
orally recognized. His legislative ac-
quaintance and career have won him en-
thusiastic friends and supporters in every
county In the state, and he will be a
strong candidate for nomination and cleo
tion.- Wjllinsoa,tic Chronicle
