Independence League leaders are coming
into our camp daily, and we expect to make
large nroads upon the Hearst strength
before election day comes round
By way Of bearing out this statement
a delegation from the Independence League
organization Of he wenty-eighth Assembly
district showed up at the hotel in the
evening before the meeting Of the eXecu-
tive committee OF all Ave boroughs. 1t was
beaded by Frederick Giesselman, who an
nounced that the organization, who's
~headquarters are at $50 East Fourteenth
street, had $50 members n that every
one Of them had turned against Hearst
and bad sent the delegation to seek admis-
sion to the Municipal Ownership League as
a body.
The evening meeting, like the afternoon
session, was held behind closed doors. At
its close IL was announced that the work
had largely consisted Of hearing reports
from the various districts and laying plans
for perfecting and strengthening the or
g~anization.
Where and when the league will hold its
convention and whom IL will select to be its
standard bearer are questions hat remain
to be decided. Several Of the Brooklyn
committeemen brought along a boom for
Gen. Robert Avery Of hat borough. Gen.
Avery Is a civil war veteran and a lawyer.
He lost a leg in the war. Until a year ago
he was a Republican, but joined the Hearst
forces last autumn. Since then, howevers
he has denounced Hearst as q traitor to the
cause Of municipal ownership. He In at
present chairman OF the M. o. L. executive
committee of Brooklyn.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1906-09-23

such a discussion Of the situation to-day
that friends OF Timothy l.. Woodruff OF
Brooklyn suggested to him that he would
prove a most available candidate, and it
was the opinion tonight that Mr.. Wood
run would announce his candidacy in
stanter should Gov. Higgins decline. There
was some talk Of Postmaster WILCOX az a
high plane solution Of what it Is believed
will be a serious problem to solve should
Gov. Higgins eliminate himself. Yet there
were Republicans from New York and
Brooklyn who have delegates behind them
in the convention who say that Mr.. Wilcox,
in his administration Of the New York
city post office, has taken occasion to snub
them many times.
Senator Edgar +. Bracket is a real live
candidate, but not in the sense OF being a
self-seeker for the nomination. He has
between fifty and sixty delegates instructed
for him, and the present plan il that his
name will go before the convention. Sen
ator Bracket has some decided opinions
upon the present political situation so far
as it affects the Republican party which.
it is unnecessary to say, are not in line with
the intention OF the managers OF the COM
ing State convention. But mate Bracket
does not lnUeuu 10 u1dko IN ACttNO CduNdSs
for the nomination. contenting himself
with letting it be known that he is in a
receptive mood and willing to aid the party
in what he terms its present extremity.
Apparently Frank 8. Black expects to
act in harmony with the plans OF the Gov
ernor's friends. He has announced that
he favors Senator William D. Barnes OF
Rensselaer, for the nomination for Secre-
tary Of State.
No one here seems to know whether or
not Senator Thomas c. Plat will attend
the convention. There could be no more
noticeable instance Of the coming State
convention than Mr. Platt's absence and
yet tonight some of his friends who are
here hored that Mr.. Plat would not come
to Saratoga.
The names Of Lieut.. Gov. Bruce, Rep
resentative Michael Driscoll OF Syracuse
and Senator William W. Armstrong Of
Rochester are mentioned for the tempo
rsry and permanent chairmanships Of the
convention. If Gov. Higgins Is renomi-
mated Mr.. Bruce will be the temporary
and Mr.. DriscoIl the permanent chairman
Of the convention. Otherwise Mr.. DriscoIl
will be the temporary chairman and Sena-
tor Armstrong the permanent chairman.
SYRACUSE, Sept. 22.-The Onondaga
delegates to the Republican State con-
v~ention. tipped that Gov. Higgins will no,

W. o. l.. TO HAVE STATE TICKET.
u VIII start Petitions for Candidate
Against Hearst.

What is left Of the Municipal Ownership
League organization that almost elected
William r. Hearst Mayor Of New York last
autumn assembled yesterday afternoon
and evening at the New Grand Hotel to
reassert its complete Independence Of
Hearst and Hearst methods and to plan
a ~gubernatOrial campaign Of its own.
In the afternoon the executive COM
mittee OF the NJ. o. L.. for the Borough Of
Manhattan held a session behind closed
doors. Daniel Browne resigned as chair
mar and j. W.. Cody was elected in his
place. Cody ran for Sheriff on the NJ. o. L.
ticket last year. Until recently he was in
the Hearst campaign for Governor and was
chairman OF the city committee Of the
Independence League. This Office he re-
signcd last Wednesday and now declares
that he il done with Hearst for good and all.
After the meeting it was announced
that reports from all the Assembly district
organizations in Manhattan had been heard.
One member Of the committee then said:
THE Municipal Ownership League which
crea ted Hearst as a political figure and
almost elected him Mayor has repudiated
him and will Oppose him this year tooth
and nail.
Furthermore, the league plans to put a
complete State ticket in the field. 70 extend

BUFFALO, Sept. 22.-William c. Warren,
the Republican State committeeman who
went down with Odell at the recent Re-
publican primaries in this city. had an
editorial in his newspaper, the Commercial,
to-day saying that it would be suicidal
for the Republicans to nominate Higgins.
He said:
1T is one thing for Gov. Higgins, with
the power Of patronage and the assistance
of Messrs. Barnes, Aldridge, Hendricks,
Kilburn and Franchot, to secure the control
OF the Republican State organization but
quite another thing as a candidate for re-
election to command the suffrages Of the
whole Republican party or OF those in
dependent Democrats who may be driven
from their party allegiance by the action
OF the Buffalo convention.
His record on the Insurance Depart
ment scandals is very vulnerable because,
although he fell into line for investigation
when Tor ed 10 by public opinion, he OBJ
| etinately upheld and protected Hendricks.
the head Of the department, condemned by
the Armstrong committee, merely because
he was a devoted political friend.
1T would be suicidal to think OF nomi-
mating Higgins. Certainly the Republican
Darty cannot afford to choose so weak a man
for lis leader this year.

The GOvernOr's Kitchen bin Hopes 70
Nominate N. Lin Bruce n the Cover

woodruff No Sentiment for Hughes.

SARATOGA, Sept. 22.-Mystery surround 8
the Republican situation here tonight.
The members OF Gov. H~iggins's kitchen
cabinet hardly believe that Gov. Higgins
will consent to run again, and yet they
have nothing to offer in that event except
Lieut.-Gov. NJ. Linz Bruce az the Republic
can nominee for Governor. There is where
the mystery begins. There are three ver-
sions Of the situation. One is that Gov.
Higgins's proorastination is but another
evidence OF his character in dealing with
important questions which have givennhis
enemies basis FOR severe criticism and that
he will announce his intention to run before
the entries close. A second int expectation
OF his course is that he is delaying tho an
nouncement that he will not run to a time
when il will be too late for the creation OF
q sentiment in opposition to a slate pre-
pared by his kitchen cabinet.
The other solution Of the situation offered
Is that Gov. Higgins and Francis Hem
bricks, who alone Of the Governors kitchen
cabinet is in the confidence Of President
Roosevelt, have an understanding with the
President that at the proper time they will
favor the nomination of a man removed
from any sort Of influence, even Of the
ne wborn Republican State machine, who
they think would be certain to win.
State Superintendent of Public Works n.
V. v. Franchot has returned from his
clean mission with nothing detinit to an
nounce. The Governors friends tonight
said everything would be in the air until
the Governors political advisers came to
Saratoga this afternoon. So did National
Committeeman William l.. Ward, Repre-
sentative Lucius n. Littauer and Repre-
sentative j. Sloat Fassett.
The suggestion which emanated from the
inner circles of the Governors Kitchen
cabinet that NJ. Linn Bruce be nominated
, for Governor in the event OF Gov. Higgins
retirement led to varied criticisms. II il
we're thought that % Higgins would put
himself out OF the running and that Mr.,
Bruce was to be supported earnestly by the
Governors political coterie there would be
several booms for Governor started. Such
will be the result Monday il Gov. Higgins
decision is a refusal to run. Close friends
Of the Governor to-day insisted that there
was no sentiment for Charles 4. Hughes
up the State.
The general impression is hal II it is
necessary TO name some one to take Mr.
Higgins's place at the head Of this ticket
the leaders who have the power TO accom-
plish a nomination will have SONS trouble
in securing a harmonious agreement upon
the mar they decide upon. 1t was during
