The Old 18th! Election of Edward P. Egan as State Sem ator s C e m s
 Assured.

The candidate certain of election in Waterbury next Tuesday is Ed- ward P. Egan, who is running for Senator in the 16th District. For 50 years or more, the District has always elected its Democratic candidate and IS very certain to do so again with person of the ability, reputation and popularity of MT. Egan.
 He was born in Waterbury and in his own District, educated in our public schools and by his own study and efforts, has attained 8 position of prominence in busi- ness and civic life. MT. Egan has resided on Baldwin street all his lifetime. He is married and has two daughters, his oldest, Esther Patricia, having just entered AL bertus Magnus College in New Haven. He has worked for. 30 years at the Waterbury Buckle Co, where by his onscientious ap- plication to work, he has risen gradually to the position of Superintendent and enjoys the confidence and friendship of his employers and employees alike.
 Not aspiring politically, he has never run for public office before and is one who feels that public office is a public trust, to be bestowed and decided by the people. His general popularity and esteem in his District Is admitted on ell sides. The voters of the Sixteenth District are fortunate, as one old- timer said, in having such an ex- .ceptional candidate, who is willing to make the sacrifice of time from work and family to serve the Dis trict in the State Senate.

His full name is James Robert Williams. He was born in Nova Scotia of parents who had come over from England. He was still a
 baby when his family moved to De- troit, and at the age of IA he was playing football at Mt. Union Col lege in Ohio.
 For that matter, he was firing on the Pennsylvania railroad when he

 job as railroad fireman by passing

 But this job didn't hold him long. He headed west and landed job in Kansas as mule skinner. He
 drifted on, and tied up with a cat- tie outfit. He cooked for the cow hands. He punched cattle. One day, down in Texas, he saw some cavalrymen come into town and he liked their looks. So he enlisted and served three-year hitch. He
 did lot of cooking in the army, too.
 And he did considerable fighting with his fists. He was hard as hickory. and as tough. He weighed about 163 pounds, was as light on
 his feet as a tap dancer, and was quite a scrapper. He became the light heavyweight champion of his outfit and when his enlistment was
 up he turned professional. "The first fur coat I ever bought
