Democrats Name Lister for Congress in Second District
A mass Democratic convention in the Second District nominated Ernest Lister of Tacoma as their candidate to succeed Francis Cushman. The nominating certificate was filed by 4:30 p.m., while Republican candidate McCredie’s certificate had not been filed until after Finch and Cowings ensured it. Governor Hay reportedly plans to move west of the mountains to run for U.S. senator, with his Tacoma home sale seen as confirmation. William Reese of Sumas was fined $800 for smuggling a dressed pig across the border from British Columbia.
