Utah fire burning out of control
The Associated Press
Two firefighters are killed in attempt to slow down the blaze
MIDWAY, Utah — A wildfire that killed two firefighters, razed 19 houses and blackened more than 3,000 acres of timber and brush defied control yesterday, although its progress slowed, officials said.
About 100 firefighters worked through the night cutting fire lines in dense brush and alpine forests to prevent flames from advancing into nearby canyons dotted with homes and cabins.
"It not over but it's looking better." fire spokesperson Dick Buehler told residents at a town meeting last week that he had more day to chase it and catch it.
Two firefighters died Sunday night when the blaze exploded in size because of winds gusting to 60 mph. The fire was advancing flames and a precipice.
Wasatch County sheriff's Deputy Blake Wright, 39, and county road crew worker Ralph Broadhead, 65 were found near the bulldozer they had been using to cut a fireline near an area known as Devil's Holle.
Hundres of homes in the Wasatch Mountain area were threatened, but the fire had to move downhill to the firefighter said. Flames move faster unhail.
There were about 400 firefighters battling the fire yesterday and fire
bosses sought reinforcements. Winds were expected to be calmer today and then kick up again tomorrow.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.
Two air tankers dropped dozens of loads of fire retardant along a canyon ridge, cooling the areas so fire crews could approach. Five helicopters, five trucks and several shrimp slung with 1,000 gallon buckets, dipped water from a nearby pond.
Sheriff Edd Thacker said the two firefighters who died apparently had tried to cut a buffer between themselves and the fire. Investigators said temperatures rocketed to nearly 1,100 degrees in the area.
Campaign worker breaks ethics code
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Gov. Hayden said yesterday that a state employee working as a volunteer in his re-election campaign should not have used a state telephone to ask about putting a bid with at Topeka's Kailroad office this weekend.
However, the governor accused Shawnee County Democratic Chairperson Larry Tenipor of exploiting his position as coordinator for political activities during Teopek's Roadade队 to make some political hay out of it.
Tenipar said the action of the employee violated state and federal laws and was counter to an ethics code for law enforcement officials.
The flap involved a call made to Tenipor on Friday by Arne Bazemore from a telephone at the Department of Rural Affairs.
Bazemore left word for Tenpiro to call when he couldn't reach him, and gave his state work number.
"When I returned the call this morning," Tenpir said yesterday, "the receptionist answered the phone. Dyrlan called him to apologize."
Bazemore, he identified himself as being with the Hayden campaign. He began to ask me for help with arrangements for a Mike Hayden booth at Railroad Days."
Tenipor said he hoped the incident didn't mean Hayden had forgotten his ethics code, or that he doesn't know political activity by state employees in state facilities violates state and federal laws.
Hayden responded in a prepared statement, in which he identified Bazemore as a 23-year old temporary, full-time state employee who has worked in KDHI for two years. He further stated that he will with state campaign laws, regulations and policies."
The governor said Bazemore was instructed by the director of Railroad Days to contact Tenipir for information about political activities allowed during the celebration. The governor said the eminent members rate the road railways played in Topica's history.
Hayden said: "I agree that (Bazemore) should not have been using a state phone to conduct this business. As governor, I do not condone the use of state facilities and equipment for campaign purposes."
Hayden challenges Finney to take the stage
The Associated Press
questions just like any other candidate "
TOPEKA — If Republican Gov. Mike Hayden has his way, he will share the stage often with state Treasurer Joan Finney, his Democratic opponent for governor in the general election campaign this fall.
"We would like to debate her as often as we can." Hayden said yesterday during a news conference while signing proclamations. "We don't necessarily see that as an advantage to us."
He also said he had no intention of changing his sometimes abrasive campaign style, despite advice to the contrary from GOP State Chairperson Rochelle Chronister. His hard-hitting campaign have worked in the past, Hayden said, and he sees no reason why it should not work in this campaign.
“Each of us has to prove we have the mettle,” he said. “Miss. Finney should be expected to answer the tough
Hayden said Finney would have an edge over him in a series of debates simply because voters had low expectations of her in that type of forum. He said he based that opinion on her performance in televised debates during
"She failed to answer most of the questions," Hayden said. "No one knows her depth on the issues."
"I don't know who sets the standards for a good debate or bad debate," said Jack Parry. Finney's campaign manager, "As in ars low expectations go, the Hydrangea Association is being held by him his administration is being held in the same esteem."
Finney upset former Gov. John Carlin by 1,844 votes to win the Democratic nomination Aug. 7. Hayden defeated challenger Nestor Weigand of Wichita in the primary by 7,651 votes.
