SPRiNGFIKLD, Mass., Nov. 4 —
Thomas L. Hisgen, Independence party
candidate for the Presidency, Issued the
following atatement today from "his home
in West Springfield, Mass.:
"I was pleased to receive such a large
vote in my home town. Returns from the
country at large are as yet so incomplete
that it is Impossible for us to know just
how many votes this new party has
polled. The growth of sentiment toward
a new party is necessarily slow. Be-
cause of our lack of political organiza-
tion throughout the Nation, and also bo-
i-ause of our lack of funds, we were un-
able 10 reach any large proportion of the
voters in this one campaign. Practically
without a campaign we have made sur-
prising gains in Vermont, New Hamp-
shire and other States, and in view of
the fact that all othf>y nolitic;il parties
in Massachusetts were united we have
held our own in thi6 State.
"During the next four y*ars political
organization that we should have had in
this campaign if time had permitted will
be completed, and in 1S12 the In-iopend-
i ence party wiil be in a position to
I strongly contest for the electoral vote of
■ many of the States in the Union. Al-
though we were not successful in electing
our candidates this year, the party has
won a victory achieved by no other party
in this campaign. It. made political cor-
ruption and trust methods an issue. It
exposed Foraker. retired Haskell and
made it dangerous for any party to pub-
licly recognize such men as Bailey, Mc-
Laurln and Aid rich as leaders. That
th^se exposures had an immense effect
on the National campaign is conceded by
all. The voters believed that the Re-
publican party, under the domination of
Roosevelt and Taft, represents less Stan-
dard Oil and trust support than the
Democratic party under the leadership of
Bryan, in view of the trust affiliations of
some of his present supporters, and this
is shown by the vote.
"Other issues were completely obscured
by the moral issue of bribery by private-
seeking interests, of vote-selling officials,
who are the greatest danger to popular
government in this generation.
"The Independence party made support
from thesf corrupt interests something to
be dreaded, and the friendship for these
interests something to be denied.
"it offered to the voters the cleanest
and best of all olatforms. It is my pre-
diction that in 1912 the lending issues of
the Independence platform will be the is-
sue of that campaign."

SAYS PARTY IS VICTIM
OF MISREPRESENTATION
CHAIRMAN MACK ANNOUNCES
FOUR YEARS' FIGHT.
Claims Democratic Party Is More
United Today Than In Many
Years, and Is Confident of Pow-
er of Recuperation.
NEW YORK, Nov. 4.—Declaring the
Democratic party is more united than it
has been in many years; that Mr. Bryan
was defeated by what ho claims was
misrepresentation as to business inter-
ests, Chairman Mack of tho Democratic
National Committee this afternoon issued
a statement in which he announces plans
to advance the party's interests during
the next four years. Mr. Mack's state-
ment in full follows:
"There is not much for me to say, and
no apologies to make relative to the vic-
tory of the Republican party. Mr. Bryan
made the most magnificent fight ever
waged by a candidate. The party was
made the victim of misrepresentation—a
misrepresentation that Democratic suc-
cess would retard tho business interests
of the country, that was, of courst. an
argument without foundation in fact.
"Notwithstanding yesterday's defeat,
the Democratic party stands more united
today than it has in many years, and in
this union lies Its future strength and
power of recuperation.
"It is my intention to continue head-
quarters in Buffalo and Washington for
the next four years, to keep in touch with
the leader® of all the States, and promul-
gate- Democratic principles and Demo-
cratic thought by the printing of litera-
ture to aid the leaders of the party in
fighting the high tariff, which in all
probability the Republicans will continue,
notwithstanding their promises to revise.
I am supported in this by the members
of the National Committee, State chair-
men and other leadeTs all over the coun-
try.
"In his own State, Nebraska., where he
is best known. Mr. Bryan was victorious.
While it is true that he. met with defeat
in the Nation, he did »o as the candidate
of his party supported by the fi,000.000 or
7,000,000 of his countrymen who voted for
him and his principles he so splendidly
CFpoused, and with the respect and ad-
miration of the entire Nation."
ROOSEVELT AS A PROPHET
President Gives Out Letter Written
Senator Lodge on October 26
Forecasting Result.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 4.—The President
was in a very cheerful frame of mind to-
day and told the newspapor men that the
election of Mr. Taft wholly carried out a
prophecy made by him in a letter written
to Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massa-
chusetts, dated October US, 1908. In this
letter the President said:
"Dear Cabot—The prophecy is bad un-
til after the event. Nevertheless. I Just
send you a line to say that I think the
situation is steadily improving in Ohio.
East of the Alleghanies I believe we shall
have a larger popular plurality than four
years ago; in other words, that Taft'a
plurality will be greater than mine, and
I think our electoral vote will be larger
east of the Alleghanies than four yeara
ago, because I think the chanoes slightly
favor us in Maryland, although this rep-
resents a good deal of guesswork.
"West of the Alleghanies I think we
shall have a falling off in majorities com-
pared with 1904, but do not anticipate tho
loss of any electoral votes, excepting in
Missouri and Nevada, and I am inclined
to think that wo have an even chance of
carrying Kentucky."
Over one thousand telegrams and many
letters of congratulation on the result of
the election poured into the White House
today for President Roosevelt. Hs was
busy all day reading these messages and
dictating replies to them.

that the most, powerful and most popu-
lar President since Lincoln is to have a
judicious and able buccessor, trained to
the business and quite competent to con
tinue the great record mafio by the re-
cent administrations.
"Mr. Taft has been brought up in an
atmosphere of honorable public service,
*»nd no American doubts that his experi-
ence fits him for hi* n in position. The
incoming administration will pursue th<j
same foreign policy which you are fa-
miliar with. It will try to maintain fair
dealing and friendship with till nations,
particularly the contiiued friendship
for the mother country."

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Nov. ^—To-

Hadley. Republican congratulatory tele-
grams poured upon him, all the tele-

tude to the Democrats who contributed

"My information a.s to the returns
seems to Indicate my election. In case
this I* true, X am profoundly grateful to
tho people of Missouri for their confi-
dence. 1 will do all that I can to give
them a, strong, clean and progressive ad-
ministration. I intend to 'make haste
slowly.' There are changes In the public
service and in the management of public
affairs that I intend to bring about, but
I am going to be sure 1 am right before
I act. Where present officials are capable
and honest, tnvy will, of course, be per-
mitted to serve out their tunna. I owe
my election to the votes of Democrats
ns well as Ropubllo&ns, and my admin-
istration will be in no sense a partisan
one. The police departments of t.he large
cities will remain unchanged, except
where improvements can he made by re-
movals. So far as I «';in acoompllsli it,
every pledge of the Republican party will
be carried out. I will work with the
Democratic officials In the future as I
have in the past for the accomplishment
o! results In the public's interest, i can-
not express my gratitude to those who
have given me such loyal and enthusiastic
support throughout tho State."

Although one of the victorious men
that marched in the army of Taft the

next Saturday. Mr. Adams is city broke
and bridlewiso and declares that he will
haul J. H. Kirkpatrick, according to a
wager, through the streets of San An to*
nio- - ,
Mr. Kirkpatrick had the woeful expe-
rience of seeing his candidate buried un-
der a mountain of ballots, but faithful
old Missouri returned to the straight and
nari'ow path and saved the day. Accord-
ing to the terms of the wager made, If
Bryan carried any State that he has
never carried before, Mr. Adams was to
play a. role, of a hor*>e and haul Mr. Kirk-
patrick through the streets in a buggy.
If Bryan did not improve on his past
performances the rolos were to be re-
versed.
Missouri, which had strayed from the
Democratic fold in previous Bryan races,
has returned to the solid South. There-
fore Mr. Kirkpatrick will get his ride
and Mr. Adams will wear the harness.
The start will be m?ide at 3 o'clock Satur-

Cracking his whip, Mr. Kirkpatrick will
drive his human steed alorifr Houston
Street to Alamo Plaza, past Alamo
Plaza to Commerce Street and thence
north to the starting point.
