National Committeeman A. H.
Cardin, Speaks OF First

independence Party and Pop.
ulists Working in Harmony.
BIG THIRD PARTY VOTE

"The Populists will have a candi-
date for congress in the First, Second
and Third districts-in fact, every
district in Kentucky where there is
not an Independence party candi-
date" said A. II. Cardin, of View,
Crlttenden county. the national COM
mtteeman, today.
Mr. Cardin. who has just returned
from the national committee meeting
at st. Louis, is at the Palmer House
for a day or two, consulting with
local leaders of the Populist party.
Mr.. Oardin was the last Populist can
didate for governor.
1--WE are not fighting the Independ-
once party" he continued. "A repre-
sentative of the Independence party
was present at the meeting at st.
Louis and we are working in harmony
Wherever the Independence party has
the most available candidate. the
Populists support him. and wherever
the Popu,ists are stronger the indie
pendenoe party supports the Populist.
In the Fifth district in Kentucky, per
haps, an Independence party candi-
date will be brought out.
"The third party vote in the United
States this year will be larger than
usual" he continued. Had Mr.. Wat
son been taken up by the Independ-
ence party, have no doubt the Popu-
list and Independence parties would
have merged. Probably at the next
election Hearst and Watson. or Wat.
son and Hearst will be the ticket with
one party behind them
Watson was not at the national
committee meeting He is busy car
rying Georgia and says he will do IT.
Governor Browns supporters, who
were aided by Watson. win support
him. We will poll big vote in Ken
lucky"
