The daily sentinel., 1908-07-25

the campaign there is a strong senti-
ment, they say, for Thomas l.. His
gen, of West Springfield, Mass. Mr..
Hisgen ran for Governor of Massa-
chusetts two years ago on the Hearst
ticket and polled surprisingly large
vote. This was encouraging to the
Independence Party leaders. Mr..
Hisgen is a member of Hisgen
Brothers, oil dealers, the firm which
has given the Standard Oil company
such hot fight in the New England
states.
Mr.. Hisgen. however, Is also some
what backward about accepting the
doubtful honor and has publicly an
nounced that he does not wish his
name considered. The oil magnate
prefers to run again for governor of
Massachusetts.
Another possible candidate is NJ.
w. Howard, of Alabama, a member
of the national committee of the In
dependence Party from Alabama. He
is an eX-Congressman having been
elected by the Populists to The Fifty
fourth and Fifty-fifth Congresses.
He was delegate to the Democratic
national convention at Chicago in
1892, when Cleveland was nominated
but left the party soon afterward.
The Independence Party leaders
here say that the strength of the
party has grown in the South re-
markably of late, and they expect to
keep on growing from now until the
day of election. The party leaders
say they do not expect to win this
fall, but seek to bring the party and
its principles before the people to
open the way for future growth.
There will be 1902 delegates to
the IndeDendence PARTY convention
