OLYMPIA, Aug. 26-[Special. 1.-The
demoralizing effect of the Lake Wash
ington canal fight, on the Democratic
convention, was even more apparent
today than it was last night when the
King county delegation were forced to
consider themselves kicked out of the
convention by its refusal to pass a reso-
luton favorable to Kings pet project.
In the opinion of a large number of the
most prominent Democrats in the state
the resolution of condemnation adopted
by the convention last night is a worse
mistake, politically, than the Repub-
lican resolution Of endorsement. Ger
tainly its effect has been to create the
bitterest dissenslons and increase the
gloominess Of the party outlook to such
a degree that much difficulty was ex-
perienced today in finding men willing
to accept nominations for places which
were eagerly sought two days ago. NJ.
NJ. Goldman, of Dayton, who might
lldNC hdNt llhl lllS SttbA2 tbHRftSS-
ional nomination, fatty refused to take
it, as Mayor Ronald, of Seattle, had
refused the first one after Snively's
nomination for governor last night.
Finally victim was found in the per-
son Of Charles A. Mundy, Of Vancou-
yer, after whose nomination the ticket
was completed as follows: For lieuten-
ant-governor, II. G. Wilson, of Port
Townsend; secretary Of state, John Nc
Reavy, Union City; auditor, Samuel
Bass, Whatcom; treasurer, Harrison
Clothier, Mount Vernon; land commits
sloner, DIR. $. T.. Lewis, Port Angeles;

ker, South Bend, T.. X. Hanna, Colfax.
For presidential electors, +. ID, Ar
mold, of Chehalis, l.. II. Plattor of
Spokane, Louis X. Church, of Everett,
and j. w. Stearns, of Tekoa, were NOM
mated last night. At a meeting of the
new central committee held this after
noon Henry Drum, Of Tacoma, was
elected chairman and George Hazard,
also Of Tacoma, temporary secretary.
