With her players re-arranged froaa
' a general shaking up, the La Grande
high school football beam Is in Ba
ker today. The most of the members
lef.t on the fast mall, and Coach Cay-
lor waited for No. 6 to get Snider
and Garrlty, they having overslept
this morning.
The shakeup places a great deal of
attention to a secondary defense, and
it Is doubtful If Baker can penetrate
It. Bohnenkamp goes to center on
dr.fc3e and Winters to tackle. Con
key goes out to take Snlders place at
tackle and Snider goes to Kiddle's
half back position, and Kiddle and
Annrews win nnnaie the guard po
sition left open by Conkey's change.
On the offense. Snider, Hunter, iRal
ston and Bohnenkamp will carry the
ball. The safety has been called up
to the line and with the full back and
center will form a close secondary
defense which probably can not be
penetrated.
Few rooters accompanied the team,
but Coach Caylor had fond hopes of
trimming the strong Baker tcam.

worked for the better, and the only
problem which he confronted today

For circuit Judge, G. W. Phelps was
re-elected without opposition, there
being no candidate whatsoever against
him. The same was true of Frederick
Stelwer, republican nominee for dis
trict attorney. R. N. Stanfteld jad no
difficulty defeating his Socialist op
ponent for Joint representative. Sheriff
Taylor also had a walkaway In his
race though his Prohibition opponent
George Propeck drew many votes.
Frank Sallng was easily re-elected
county clerk over R. E. Pery, Social
ist candidate. B. S. Buroughs,
county recorder, was also re-elected
his only opponent being a Socialist
nominee. I. E. Young of Milton, Re
publican nominee for school super
intendent, was elected, his only op
ponent being the Prohibition nomi
nee, I. B. Sevy. uoary Kimoreu,
county surveyor, will hold that office
another term, having easily won out
against his Socialist opponent, U. N.
Miller.
The Baker Count.
Baker, Nov. 8. (Special) With all
precincts Included In the count, with
the exception of Pine 1 and Pine 2,
Richland and City No. 2, the pluraU
ltles shown by the leaders In the first
report remain In the same ratio, hav
ing Increased proportionately as the
returns slowly came In. The only In
stance whea there has been mucn
doubt was the race for assessor be
tween Jesse It Dodson and Harry,
Hyde. The latter was well In the lead
at first but Dodson was pressing him
close at the end of the first 24 hours'
count. Hyde, however, made gooa
gains yesterday and his probable plur
ality will be around 200.
The almost final count Bhows the
early Indicated pluralities for state
ofnclaa in this county are in about
the same proportions, and the final
count will without question show
pluralities for Wilson, Lane, Graham,
Anderson, Godwin, Mitchell, Rand,
Combs, Wolch, West, Hyde, Palmer,
J. F. Smith. The pluralities for
county offices computed from the
complete returns available without
the complete count of the five pre
cincts ment'oned above are as fol
lows: Anderson 230, Godwin 364,
ljyde 217, Combs 260, J. F. Smith
25, Rand 5E0, Palmer 428.
County Clerk Combs and d-eputles
will begin work this morning making
the official count, and it s anticipat
ed that all the ballot boxes will be
in by today. No. 2 precinct In the
city, the last to complete the count;
finished last evening. It is probable
that it will take two days to make

private sanitarium for insane people,
at" Arlington Heights, near Fort
Worth. A few 'weeks, later Mrs
Sneed managed .to send' a letter to Al
Boyce, her lover, begging him to re
lease b-er from her prison. - -
Al Boyce drew a large sum of
money and went to Fort" Worth,
bribed one of the attendants of the
sanitarium and through him secured
the release of Mrs. Sneed. Boyce and
Mrs. Sneed eloped to the north, going
first to St. Louis and then to Omaha.
At Omaha, Boyce learned that Sneed
was In hot pursuit and without delay
lie fled wlh Mrs. Sneed to Chicago and
thence to Winner. Manit. There
they were arrested as undesirables on
December 26,' 1911, and when Sneed
reached Winnepeg, having been In
formed of the- arrest, Boyce fled.
Sneed took bis Wife back to Texas
Snd again placed her In the same san
itarium from which she had escaped.
In some manner Snieed learned that
Capt. A. C. Boyce, the father of Al
Boyce, was In full sympathy with 'its
son and was plotting to get Mrs.
Sneed out of the sanitarium. Young
Boyce had been Indicted on the charge
of abduction, but his father brought
about the dismissal of the Indictments
which fact also greatly embittered
Sneed against him. The two men met
in the lobby of a hotel In this city on
January 13 of this year and. after an
exchange of a few words, J. Beal
Sneed drew hla pistol and fired ever
al shots at the old man killing him
Instantly. . ' . ' ;
Sneed was arrested and tried, but
after being out 112 hours the Jury re
turned and reported that no agree
ment could be reached. A new trial
was ordered and this will , com .up
next week. Sneed kept himself In re
tirement afwr the mistrial and few
persons knew-definitely of Ills where
abouts. Al Boyce, the lover of Mrs.
Sneed, was supposed' to be in Brit
ish Columbia and It was reported that
he had purchased a ranch there and
Intended to live there.
On September 14 of this year Sneed
and Al Boyce met In one of the prin
cipal streets of 'Amarlllo, . Texas.
Siwed, who, according to the state-
gulsed as a tramp, approached the
unsuspecting Boyce and kilted him by
several shots from an automatic shot
gun. T! murderer surrendered and
was late, indicted, but the trial has
not yet teen set for a hearing. Sneed
will be represented at the coming
trial by some of the best legal talent
In the state and is confident of his ac
quittal after the Jury shall " have
learned the full exten of his griev
ances against Al Boyce and the father
of the latter.
