Snow ordered to stand trial in grand larceny case
Former Highway Commissioner Jos M Snow must stand trial after the supreme court reversed Thurston county and ordered a criminal case move to trial. Snow allegedly refused to surrender 2100 of state funds paid by Milwaukee Railroad for Snoqualmie Pass road while trustee. The state had pursued criminal and civil actions but Thurston county ruled against the state in a prior criminal suit. Also reported is J Allen Smith of the University of Washington poised to head the socialist ticket in the state campaign with a full slate and an expected 50000 votes. Smith was noted years ago for socialist teaching prompting talk of regents’ dismissal.
