Thomas Fl. Carroll Chosen

NOMINATED BY RECLAMATION
Efforts 70 Be Made to Have the
Next Convention OF
Spokane.

SEATTLE, Wash. Aug. 20.-The demo-
cratic state convention this morning,
after adopting the platform, nominated
Thomas Carroll, of Tacoma, by accla.
nation for congress. John l.. sharp
stein, of Walla Walla, for whom his
county delegation was instructed, had
withdrawn. To the surprise of many
not in the inside, Judge Junius Roches-
ter. of Seattle, nominated Carroll, al
though yesterday afternoon Rochester
his name as candidate. The
reason for his Withdrawal was
started to be that NJ. J. Maloney, of
Kittitas. had charges against Rochester
for conduct during the last congressional
campaign. Maloney claimed that
Rochester had then promised him by
telegraph money for Kittitas which
never came. The talk was that Carroll
and the Pierce delegates, who
were discomfted yesterday by King
countys decision to support Roches-
ter used the story as club to
pound Rochester, not only out of the
race, but into willingness to nominate
Carroll. The threat was to expose tho
whole thing If Rochester's name was
seriously urged. Rather than face the
music for the empty honor of the nomi-
nation, Rochester withdrew. Carroll is
nm Iowa lawyer, born in 1912. He
served In the war.

Bars Worth "a, ,OO0.

BoIsE CITY, Idaho, Aug. 30.-A special
to the Statesman from Bellevue says
that the county seat fight in Logan
county is waxing very warm. The latest
pass in the situation is the town of Sho-
shone trying to prevent the election Oc-
tober /. A provision passed at the last
legislature provides that the temporary
county seat be located at Shoshone, and
at the regular election in 1889 the quos-
tion of u permanent location
is to be submitted TO the electors
of the county. Al their July
meeting the com missioners promulgated
three election proclamations, and SUBJ
mitted the county seat question. Now
comes the people of Shoshone. with an
injunction against the commissioners
