Earl Snyder, deserter. ex-convict
and forger, will serve society rather
than his country, by spending part of
the balance of his natural life in the
Oregon state penitentiary and will not
join the colors as member of the last
Ada county contingent under the Is
per cent call, the men who mobilize
for which will leave Boise on the night
of Nov. Z. The status of Snyder has
been established and the state of Idaho
has relinquished all claim to him. The
Ada county board thereupon made up
the official list Of the men who are to
make up the last quota, the alternates
to fill any vacancies if they exist and
the transfers. In all some Is or 20
men will entrain from here
SNYDER CONVICTED.
At the request of the county board
Adjutant General Moody wired the
sheriff at Baker, Ore, as to whether
or not the oregon authorities intended
to deliver Snyder to the Ada county
board. In reply he received the fol-
lowing telegram:
Earl Snyder found guilty of forgery
on two charges Will be sentenced
Saturday morning. Was going under
assumed name at time of arrest. Es-
capped from Jail. Was recaptured in
Idaho Oct. 20. Indicted by grand jury
on Oct. 80. Is ex-conviet out of Boise
Wire if you still want him. r. p. An
derson, sheriff"
To this telegram Adjutant General
Moody Jersey replied:
I'VE do not want Snyder"
IRONS DISCHARGED.
| Chairman Atwater of the county
board also learned from Camp Lewis,
American Lake, that Fred Irons, a reg
| istrant of Bannock county, transferred
to Ada county and sent to Camp Lewis,
had secured his discharge. Irons at
tempted to get the Ada county board
to delay sending him to Camp Lewis
on the grounds a board in Montana
had wired to reopen his case The
Ada county board refused to take cog
nizance of the telegram and sent him
to American Lake.
AS the men who entrain here on
Nov. form the last contingent to
leave for Camp Lewis, it is likely that
plans will be made for demonstra-
ton in their behalf when they de-
movement should get in touch with
members of the Ada county draft
board.
