OUT FOR STATE SENATE.
Formal Announcement of Carter Lee
Bowie Arouses Maryland Interest.

Special Correspondence or The Star.
UPPER MARLBORO, July 4, 1913.
The formal announcement of Carter
Lee Bowie of Queen Anne district, Prince
Georges county, of his candidacy for the
democratic nomination for the state SEN
ate during the primaries this summer
has aroused much interest in political
circles, not only III Prince Georges
county, but throughout the state. His
announcement is believed to have some
significant bearing upon the short-term
senatorial fight which Gov. Goldsborough
has precipitated By his announced inten-
ton of proclaiming a special primary
election this fall.
1t Is stated that the forces opposed to
the regular organization IN Prince
Georges county, which has selected VIII
liam +. Holmead as its candidate for the
state senate are not united in their sup
port of Mr.. Bowie, and il looks now as
though the Queen Anne district man can
hope TO carry but three districts of the
nineteen, Queen Anne, Marlboro and Pts
Getaway.
