Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to present the attitude of Stanisław Mackiewicz, the chief editor of Wileński journal “Słowo”, towards the marshal Józef Piłsudski in chronological order. The publication depicts, through the prism of journalistic and literary activity, the matters of creating the emotional relationship and building political confidence between the borderland journalist and the head of state. Mackiewicz honoured Józef Piłsudski with respect as the creator of independent state and perceived him to be the best candidate to the assumption of the highest dignities in the state. Being the follower of monarchism, he saw the person of Piłsudski on the Polish throne.
