By binding paper-tabs‘s selected propertry with iron-pages‘s selected property will show the corresopnding based on selected tab.

<paper-dialog id="view">
   <paper-tabs selected="{{currentPage}}">
      <paper-tab on-tap="_changeList">TAB 1</paper-tab>
      <paper-tab on-tap="_changeList">TAB 2</paper-tab>
      <paper-tab on-tap="_changeList">TAB 3</paper-tab>
   </paper-tabs>
   <iron-pages selected="{{currentPage}}">
      <iron-list>some story for tab 1</iron-list>
      <iron-list>some story for tab 2</iron-list>
      <iron-list>some story for tab 3</iron-list>
   </iron-pages>
</paper-dialog>

As you want to show the first tab by defalut, you need to set the currentPage value to 0

ready: function(){
    this.currentPage = 0;
}

Hope this helps 🙂
