From the Editors Desk

The choice of Archibald Macdonald of Putnam as republican nominee for state senator from the twenty eighth district is gratifying to his many friends in Putnam and throughout the district. The mantle falls on worthy shoulders. No nun in the district has better claim to the honor than he. No man in the district has done more for Putnam and eastern Connecticut than he.
 MT. Macdonald lays no claims to being polished orator. He speaks his mind in plain English and plain terms. He is man Of the people and one on whom the people rely with the utmost confidence. Coming from a race Of hardy Scotch ancestors, whose word once given became q law unto them, his promises may be relied upon as a sacred trust.
 Tn his own hardy style he goes about the task he undertakes and by his ln- nate enthusiasm and earnest effort wins support to whatever project he may have in hand His eyes are blind to obstacles in the path he seeks to traverse and he reaches his goal where Il less heroic spirit would sit down by the wsyside in Encouragement.
 We believe that the welfare of the twenty. eight district has been placed in capable and safe hands. MT. Mac donaldis representation will not be of negative quality. We expect 10 see him in the senate, as he was in the house, arranged on the side Of all good measures, with delicate ear flor any thing that may advance the interests of Esstern Connecticut, his district end his home town.
 MT. NJ acdonaid's career Is an ex- ample for young men. It should foster courage in those in the ordinary paths of fife to interest themselves in public service and affairs. He has risen from the ,ofiiee of town consta- ble to be state senator, climbing to this height by the stairs of city alderman, !, alderman-at large, thrice mayor and twice representative in the lower house. A steady upward climb by earnest, honest effort. Not ty the blare of silyered words forgotten as soon az spoken, not by flowery speech and forgotten promises; not by poiti. cal wire pulling and bossism; but by natural ability to attract real friends, to convince others of his upright pur. pose, and the installing of confidence in constituency that is pleased to honor him,
 MT M Macdonald, will without doubt be elected He deserves 10 be elected Doubtless he will attract the full re- publican vote and in all probability there will be many who will lose sight of strict party lines when they con slider the man and the public service he has rendered to his town, bis city, his county and his state.
