Mr Hisgen's Career From Clerk to Industrial Figure
Thomas L. Hisgen of West Springfield Massachusetts was born in Petersburg Indiana on November 26 1858. He started as a clothing store clerk in Albany New York and later helped his father build a large axle grease business that resisted sale to Standard Oil after a bid of six hundred thousand dollars. A conflict with Standard Oil led the Hisgens into oils themselves. He ran as Independence League governor candidate in the last campaign. Hearst papers claimed the ticket was second in votes while official tallies placed Democrats second.
