Thomas L. Hlsgsn, eandldata for tha
prtildenoy on tha Independence party
ticket, spoke to an audience of t.vQI
people last night at tha Armory on the
laaiies of the campaign, treating the
attitude of the two old parties from
his standpoint and art-ulna; that the
remedy for all existing evils of gov
ernment was tha support and success
of the Independence party and Its can-dldatea.
In his addreee Mr. Htsgen contended
that the old parties were owned and
operated by the Interests, the trusts
and the magnates of predatory wealth.
He said that the only way for the
country to rid Itself of the dominion of
the Interests wss for them to some to
the support of the Jndependenoe party,
which waa not now nor ever would be
associated with or friendly to the
trusts.

A tag day Is planned for the Baby
home, which it is hoped will be will
ingly taken up by the general public
and will result In a good sum being
realized for the Institution.
Where this plan has been tried In
other cities it has been found a suc
cess. The tags are made to resemble
a baggage check or express tag and are
sold for a trifling sum. It gives every
body a chance t contribute his mite
to a good cause and taxes no one great
ly. In Los Anareles a tag day was ar
ranged recently for the charities of
that city, and everybody from express
man to autolst wore from one to ten
tags. The day was mada a gala- oc
casion and every one took part. In
one day $6,000 was raised for their
charities.
The Baby home Is In need of funds
to meet street Improvement assess
ments, and It Is hoped this plan will
result In their meeting this indebtedness.
