PACE SIX HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON Third Party Moves Eyed, But Not Voted In, By Far Y est Since Bull Moose Day WASHINGTON, Jan. 5 Each hns boon conslderlwt the second third party movement during the s)t on the Henry Wallace ticket past 35 yer has placed a western- His state Rave Lemke 7684 votes r on the ticket, but only once has out of about 200.000 oast. It gave irew pniijr i-niiii:u a Mitir aei- me duii moasers to KDoroxi egatlon from that area. That was m 1912. when the "bu'.l moose" ticket of "Teddy" Roosevelt and Sen. Hiram Johnson of Call fornla carried both California and Washington the former by less than 200 votes but the latter by a . tibstantlal margin. In 1912 and again In 1924 when "Fighting Bob" LaPolletto of Wis consin and Senator Burton K. Wheeler of Montana teamed up as the progressive party, voters tn sev eral western states went along to such an extent that one or the olher of the major parties was crowded Into third place. The third party took second place over the republicans In Colorado, Montana, Nevada and Oregon in 1012 and over the democrats in California, ' Idaho. Montana. Ne vada. Oregon. Washington and Wyoming In 1924. None of the western states took mately 34.000 for the democrats and 33.000 for the republicans. But 54. 160 Idaho voters supported the La-Follettc-Wheeler ticket, aeninst 69. 879 for the republicans and only 24.256 for the democrats. In New Mexico and Utah, a third party has never beaten either of the major parties. In fact, none haa ever come very close to winning even second place In those states. Utah, however, after a compli mentary vote for its Senator El bert D. Thomas for vice president four years ago, stuck by Henry Wallace until the last ballot at the dimocratic national convention. Its delegation then switched to Mr. Truman. Rep. Dawson iR-Utahi says Wallace is quite popular among the Mormons and that his "ever normal granary" theory was adopted from the relief program of the church.

Fort Klamath J TACOMA, Jan. 5 FA burley. : Mrs. Viola Leever was a Fort , 45-year-old negro ax-slayer, con- I Klamath visitor last week from her . fessed murderer of a dozen persons j home in Klamath Falls. She spent In a score of years, may receive a j Christmas Day as guest of her son temporary stay of execution if his t death cell confessions stand up J under investigation. , The prisoner. Jake Bird, has dic t tated a confession admitting 10 murders in addition to the fatal J bludgeoning of two Tacoma women last October 30. Pierce County Dndersheriff Joseph Karpach said. I Now at the state penitentiary in Walla Walla. Bird is scheduled to hang January 16, but Governor J Mon C. Wallgren said over the . week-end that a "stay of execution may be granted to clear up other murders." I "However, if we see that the eon- fessions are lies, we will not grant any delay." he added. ; The governor indicated his deci- tion probably will depend upon rec- ommendatlons of Prosecutor Pat ' rick Steele, who said yesterday he , would question Bird this week at Walla Walla. Karpach also said he -would talk , again with Bird In hopes the con- demned man will admit other mur - tiers of which he is suspected. ; The 10 killings which Karpach , said Bird admitted in his confession Included one fh Iowa for which an- other man has served 19 years in , prison, the slaying of a family of . inree in Indiana, three persons in ' Nebraska, and one each in Illinois, , Utah and Colorado.

J The statement grew out of West'? . argument with the state highway commission over legality of a 1947 ' act revising earlier legislation bv ...w-m v. it aiaic act IIIC COuSb area from Washington to California as public highways. West said the Southern Pacific's title to a strip of tideland area In what is now Lincoln county stems from a railroad grant by the 1874 legislature to the Willamette Val ley and Coast railroad. This line was eventually acquired by the Southern Pacific, i The former governor said a 1912 decision by the state supreme court voided a legislative act repealing the 1874 grant. "The only title oi color of title enjoyed by the state stems from the act sponsored by me in 1913," West asserted. He was governor at the time. This 1913 act was repealed by the last legislature. (A. T. Mercier, president of the Southern Pacific, was quoted by the Oregonlan as saving anv claim of the SP were not known to the rail road attorneys and that the legal Staff would Investigate.)
