Wilson hearing may
seek deal to avoid trial
Status hearing gives
judge, prosecution,
defense shot at deal
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A Garnett man
facing charges in the June 11
hit-and-run death of 22 yearold Clay Yoder will be in district court at 9:30 a.m. this
morning for a status hearing
whose result may shortcut a
trial on those charges.
Thirty-six year-old Jason
Wilson of Garnett is charged
with failing to stop at a fatality accident, giving false
information and obstructing
apprehension or prosecution
in the incident in which he
drove the car which allegedly struck and killed Yoder
sometime after 2 a.m. several
miles west of Garnett on 1650
Road.
Twentytwo year
old Ashley
Hobbs of
Garnett,
the owner
of the car
and a pasWilson senger at
the time
of the incident, also faces charges of
obstruction and giving false
information and also allowing operation of a vehicle
without insurance. She will
be in court for a status hearing August 22 at 9 a.m.
Preliminary hearings are
held so a court can hear evidence and determine if its
sufficient to warrant a trial.
Status hearings allow lawyers for the prosecution and

New city manager wants faster,
more transparent city budget
Weiner says hell
tighten up timetable
so city meets deadline
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City commissioners are considering a procedural change that will put the
citys budgeting process into a
more transparent form, after
a review by new city manager
Chris Weiner.
Weiner told commissioners
in a Monday night meeting he
wasnt comfortable with the
way the city presently assembled its annual budget, noting
not only has the budget approval typically been late but also
that it doesnt conform to rules
the city set forth for the process in an apparently forgotten
charter ordinance from 1968.
It was Weiners first official
meeting since he took office
after Joyce Martins retirement
earlier this month.
Most governmental entities
in
Kansas
operate on
an
annual
budget
which begins
January
1
each year, but
the budgeting
process typically begins
Weiner
the
previous spring
in order to assemble a spending plan by a state deadline of
August 15. The timeline has to
afford time for the spending
plan to be assembled, approved
by the governing body and then
published for public review
prior to a budget hearing in
August, which gives the public
a chance to comment on the
document.
Its rare for many, if any,
members of the general public
to attend local budget hearings.
Weiner said there are no
penalties in the state law to
have the budget finished by
the proscribed deadline however, and that Garnetts budget
process had typically extended
passed that deadline.
From my understanding
we have not typically met our
August 15 deadline, Weiner
told commissioners. I dont
take that lightly. He said
his plan for the coming year
included an April start date
that would conclude with a finished budget by July.
But the stickier issue
involves a city charter ord-
Anderson County Emergency Preparedness Director
J.D. Mersman briefs first responders from various
agencies during classroom training in July for the
nance which limits the citys
dispersal of funds from its utility accounts to 10 percent of
those total revenues. For years
the city has applied certain
unrelated expenses directly to
those utility funds in compiling
the annual budget in order to
keep the city mill levy low. By
directing expenses straight to
those funds, the city never had
to transfer money from them to
pay expenses that would have
been listed elsewhere on the
budget as separate line items.
Weiner said the city managers salary, among others,
is taken out of the water, gas
and electric funds instead of
being listed under general
city administration, and then
funds transferred from utilities
to cover the expense, which

August 9 Mass Casualty Incident exercise which
will be conducted in and around Garnett Elementary
School.
A really bad day…
Training exercise
challenges responders
to react as combined unit
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Imagine the
unthinkable.
A helicopter crashes into
Anderson County Hospital or
the adjacent Residential Living
Center; a gunman opens fire at an
area school; a tornado hits a local
church during Sunday services
in seconds, dozens or scores of
local residents are injured and
need help.
Those type scenarios are the
subject of a special training day
on Wed., August 9, which will
pit all local emergency responders against an imaginary mass
casualty situation at Garnett
Elementary School. Its the action
portion of classroom training
attended by numerous responders at the Anderson County
Fairgrounds on July 20.
Trent McCown, local agent
with Kansas Department of
Wildlife & Parks, said the exercise is designed to train multiple
agencies to work in tandem in an
emergency situation with high
numbers of casualties. This particular exercise will be staged at
Garnett Elementary School on
Wednesday morning.
This will result in ambulances, fire trucks and law enforcement vehicles parked in the area
of the school as part of the exercise, McCown said. Due to the
training at the school, we ask
the public to not park along the
highway, stop along the roadside
or walk into the training area.
We want to minimize the chance
of an accident due to non-participants watching the ongoing activSEE TRAINING ON PAGE 3A

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
MANHATTAN While Anderson
Countys population has been
declining slightly since 2007, its
residents have been making more
money and paying more of it
to county government to fund
county expenditures that have
expanded some 47 percent since
just before The Great Recession
of 2008.
That was the message of a
report recently completed by
K-State Research and Extension
and presented to Anderson
County Commissioners by
Frontier District Agent Fran
Richmond. Entitled Fiscal
Conditions and Trends, the
report was produced from The
Kansas Fiscal Database, a data
collection of county information compiled from all Kansas
counties by K-States Office of
Local Government. The database,
updated since 1989, shows demographic trends as well as county taxing and spending changes
over the period for all counties
in the state, and allows comparisons between individual counties
and the state as a whole.
Overall, the comparison data
showed that while Anderson
Countys population declined
3 percent from 8,051 in 2007 to

Garnet BPW hosted its first
Quartermania event at the the
Anderson County Fair and it
was a success. Many participants and vendors experienced
the event and helped raise
money for the SEKMCHD Hand
Me Ups program. Participants
purchased paddles for $1 each
and then bid quarters for the
prizes. Vendors collected the
quarters for their prize and
then called out the lucky paddle
number. Many of the vendors
donated their quarters back
to the Hand Me Ups program.
Several fairgoers walked away
with great prizes. Vendors
participating in Quartermania
were Nancy Crawford, The
Purse Lady; Becca Modlin,

ity and causing traffic congestion or an accident, McCown
said.
The classroom training
instructed law enforcement,
ambulance, fire and rescue personnel in methods of operation
in the Rescue Task Force concept merging their skills and
training into small multi-disciplined teams that work together as a unit to find, evaluate
and remove the injured from
areas which may be unsafe due
to natural or man-made hazards.
He said area residents who
listen to scanners can expect to
hear a lot of communications
traffic that day, and lots of
emergency vehicles both from
the local area and out-of-county
departments will be moving in
the vicinity that day.
While some crews are working at the school scene, McCown
said Anderson County Hospital
crews will be undertaking its
own exercise in managing a
large inflow of patients from
the school site scenario. Later
on Wednesday crews will also
conduct exercises involving
various scenarios at two local
nursing homes.
McCown said though the
training will involve numerous
local responders, it will still
be business as usual in the
county with police and sheriffs officers on patrol and other
responders ready to act in case
of a real-life emergency that
day.
BBB warns about
credit card shimmers
Skimmers on gas pumps and
ATMs have been popular ways
scammers can get your credit
card information. These malicious card readers can be quickly
installed by crooks to grab the
data off the cards magnetic strip.
After gathering data from unsuspecting consumers, the thieves
return to the compromised
machine to pick up the skimmer
containing all the stolen data.
Within a matter of minutes, they
can create cloned cards with the
stolen information and begin
making purchases or withdrawing cash from ATMs.
Credit card skimmers are
often bulky and wobbly, making
them easier to spot than a newer
device called a shimmer, named
for its slim size. It fits inside a
card reader and can be quickly
installed by a criminal who is
pretending to make a purchase
or withdrawal.
To protect from shimmers, the
BBB suggests:
Consider making payments
for gas inside the station or store
if possible.
If withdrawing cash at a bank
during normal hours, consider
going inside to a teller for the
transaction.
Use ATMs in banks rather
than less monitored and less
secure standalones.
Cover the keypad with your
hand when entering a PIN number.
Dont proceed with a transaction if your card encounters
resistance when it is inserted.
Contact the bank, merchant
and the card issuer if you suspect your card has been compromised.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, August 1, 2017
OPINION
Biased media butchers the
fact-checking of Obamacare
Since its passage, and in a way that is unlike
any policy issue in modern American history, the
press have rallied to the defense of Obamacare.
From day one, there has been almost no light
between the average liberal activist and average
health care reporter.
Or the average fact-checker, for that matter.
Fact-checking has evolved from an occasionally useful medium to an exercise in revisionism
and diversion. Take the Washington Post writer
Glenn Kesslers recent article titled President
Trumps Mangled Facts About Obamacare.
Those who read the headline might assume its
just Trump doing what Trump does most of the
time. Yet it turns out that all these supposedly
mangled contentions about Obamacare are, at
the very least, debatable assertions.
Kessler, for example, doesnt approve of Trump
stating: Americans were told that premiums
would go down by $2,500 per year. And instead,
their premiums went up to levels that nobody
thought even possible. Other than the hyperbole
(nobody thought even possible) tacked on, this
statement is substantively true.
The ostensive debunking of the premiums
are soaring claim is really just a confirmation that premiums have indeed risen. Sure,
Kessler blames the vagaries of modern life and
demographics because these things apparently
didnt exist when Democrats were making their
big unrealistic promises in 2009.
More interestingly, he contends that when
then-President Obama promised Americans that
their insurance premiums would drop by $2,500
per year per family, what he really meant was
premiums would be $2,500 less than the anticipated rise. So, in other words, according to
estimates, the average family is now supposedly
paying $3,600 less than what it would have paid if
Obamacare hadnt been passed.
When Republicans bother to defend Obamacare
repeal bills, they are pretty explicit in explaining
that Medicaid cuts are merely a slowing of
spending growth. But Obama repeatedly stated
probably hundreds of times over a two-year
span that the bill would reduce the cost of
premiums by $2,500 per family. I cant find a single instance anywhere of Obama, or anyone else
selling the legislation, offering a nuanced context
for this claim.
According to Kessler, Obama didnt lie or
mangle facts or mislead anyone. Rather, he
gave a misguided pledge. The word misguided intimates that Obama wasnt misleading any-

one on purpose. Moreover, the promise of lower
premiums and the lie that you could keep your
insurance if you liked it were the central political
selling points of the Affordable Care Act to the
middle class. They were the only aspects of the
law that would have benefited those who already
had health insurance.
Trump has also said: Insurers are fleeing the
market. Last week it was announced that one of
the largest insurers is pulling out of Ohio the
great state of Ohio. The fact-checker Kessler
does not approve. He argues: Trump decries
that some insurance companies have announced
they are leaving the Obamacare marketplace.
But he ignores that many say they are exiting the
business because of uncertainty created by the
Trump administration, in particular whether it
will continue to pay cost-sharing reductions to
insurance companies.
Kessler accidentally forgot to mention that the
uncertainty created by the cost-sharing reduction subsidies meant to entice insurance companies to participate in Obamacares fabricated
exchanges exists because they are unconstitutional. After all, the president cant overturn a
law. Trump has no duty to pay these subsidies;
in fact, he probably has a duty not to pay them.
Congress never appropriated any funding for
such payments. A federal court found that the
Obama administration was acting unconstitutionally when it created them.
Whatever the case, despite Kesslers non sequitur, Trumps core contention that insurers are
fleeing is well within the boundaries of a political truth. Insurers were bolting before he became
president.

Repeal debacle notes GOP as The Stupid Party
The ascension of Donald Trump was supposed to change everything in the GOP. As it
happens, perhaps one very important thing
hasnt: The Republicans may well still be The
Stupid Party.
That Obamacare repeal has one or maybe
two feet in the grave, depending on how youre
counting, is testament to jaw-dropping disarray and bad faith.
On the cusp of a historic failure, the party
has begun the finger-pointing, and its hard to
argue with any of it. The establishment is right
that Trump is incapable of true legislative
leadership. The Trumpists are right that the
establishment is ineffectual. Conservatives
are right that moderates dont really want to
repeal Obamacare. And pragmatists are right
that a few conservatives are beholden to a
self-defeating purity.
The Republican members of the worlds
greatest deliberative body arent covering
themselves in glory. Susan Collins of Maine
and Rand Paul of Kentucky have always been
noes, leaving no margin for error. Mike Lee of
Utah and Jerry Moran of Kansas are additional noes on the current repeal-and-replace bill,
while Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia
and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska have joined
Collins as noes on repeal-only.
Then there is another tranche of
Republicans, like Rob Portman, who are nervous fence-sitters. The Ohio senator doesnt

have to appear on a ballot again until 2022, yet
gives every indication of quailing at taking a
tough vote.
For Rand Paul, clearly, a perhaps
once-in-a-generation opportunity to significantly reform two entitlement programs isnt
as important as scoring cheap points against
his colleagues in the cause of getting as many
cable hits as possible.
Lee is a thoughtful, public-interested conservative who isnt a showboater. He has an
outsize influence on the prospects of the bill
because he is one of the few Republicans willing to be the decisive vote against it.
Its not just senators who are falling down.
President Trump has very little idea what is
in the health care bill, and doesnt particularly
care. This prevents him from helpfully engaging in detailed negotiations, and he hasnt
made a public case for the bill except in tweets
and at the highest level of generality.
Repealing Obamacare was never going to
be easy. The law has created facts on the
ground that are inherently difficult to undo.
Mitch McConnell has 52 Republican senators,
whereas Harry Reid had 60 senators. But Reid
held all his members.
At the end of the day, the most important difference between the parties on health
care may be that the Democrats had a vision
that they were thoroughly committed to and
were astonishingly courageous in effecting.
No one had more to lose on Obamacare than
Nancy Pelosi, and yet no one was as devoted
to the cause. If she becomes speaker again in
2019 after Republicans — disunited, selfish and
fearful — have whiffed on repealing her handiwork, it will be the sweetest revenge.
Like the Democrats in 2009, Republicans
have a historic opportunity that will quickly
vanish unless it is seized. A majority is a terrible thing to waste. Six months in, Republicans
are giving every indication that is exactly
what they might do, to their everlasting disgrace.

School finance arguments get more ink
Ever wonder why you never hear romantic
stories about a guy proposing marriage to the
love of his life while waiting for the fast-food
employee to hand the fries out the window?
Its because, we hope, it never happens.
But thats pretty close to the proposal made
by lawyers for the state at the Kansas Supreme
Court oral arguments last week that its roughly $300 million in new money (atop about $4
billion spent now), two-year school finance
plan will bring a lifetime of success to Kansas
schoolchildren who attend public K-12 schools.
The states arguments were essentially that
the low-buck new school finance plan passed
this session will provide school districts
enough money to turn out graduates well be
proud of, who will go on to technical education
or higher education or be bright enough right
out of high school to find jobs that will provide
security for them for the rest of their lives.
Oh, thats if the new plan for teaching the
children more effectively succeedsand well
get back to you in a couple years to see how
that works.
If the Supreme Court accepts that proposal,
well, then the Legislature has just scored a
major victory. It convinced those justices to
just sit quietly in the car, and presume that
youre going to share the fries with them, and
the children of the state.
But at the end of the hearings last week, it
didnt look like the court is willing to accept
that proposal. It was just fries, not even a dinner with tablecloths.
Only seven Kansansjustices of the
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
courtknow now whether the Legislatures
plan for school funding which includes new
testing and new direction of spending of state
resources by local school boards will satisfy
the constitutional requirements for adequately financing public schools. But, admittedly,
its the cheapest solution suggested to the
court. Educators, including the State Board of
Education, recommend about three times the
Legislatures increase in spending.
If the Legislatures plan is upheld, well,
lawmakers can figure that they wont have to
raise taxes on anyone in the year leading to
the statewide offices and Kansas House elections. Thats probably the biggest issue that
is going to face those candidates in the next
year. You never go wrong by not raising taxes
on registered voters. But if the new money and
the detailed plan on how school districts are
to spend it doesnt provide adequate funding
according to court decree, then we wont have
to wait for test scores in two or three years to
see if the plan was successful. Well know by
the outcome of next years elections.
Of course, the biggest issue is the students
and whether the new plan provides us a generation of students that is going to be successful once the young adults leave schooland
whether Kansas can wait two or three years to
see if it works.
The plan rejected? Lawmakers go back to
work probably this fall to try another plan
and whatever that yields, its going to have
to be linked to a tax increase of some sort.
There is still a wide range of services which
are exempt from sales taxes, and there is still
the statewide 20-mill tax for support of public
schools, but lawmakers have about run out of
room for increasing general sales taxes and
income taxes.
So, does this cheap date work? Or does the
Supreme Court decide that the proposal it is
considering isnt just for a few years but a
lifetime of success for Kansas schoolchildren?
Thats what the folks in the Statehouse are
waiting to hear.

with half a million dollars and tell McDonalds
where to build your store. McDonalds corporation decides where the stores are going to be
built and if they dont want to own and operate
it themselves, then they decide if they want to
let a franchisee own it. It doesnt work quite
like you say. McDonalds is not going to let a
store be built in a place they dont think is
going to make money to begin with. It makes
the whole corporation look bad. Get your facts
right before you call in . Thanks.

Discussion was held on having a garage sale Colony Day
or City-Wide Garage Sale Day.
There are books, magazines,
paintings and storage items at
the library to sell.
Members are checking into
purchasing a door. The library
could be open more hours if
a dividing door was installed
between the library and the
city office. Ideas for a float
for Colony Day were also discussed.

Around Town
Shirley McGhee has returned
from a two week trip to Hawaii.
She traveled with 12 other
ladies from Kansas who are
Delta Kappa Gamma Society
members. (This is a womens teacher organization).
They attended the Southwest
Regional Conference of Delta
Kappa Gamma in Honolulu
for four days. There were 500
members attending from many
South American countries and
Japan represented beside the 8
southwestern states.
While on the island of Oahu
she visited with Willie and
Satomi Ho and their children,
Juliette and Bennett for two
days. (Satomi was a language
exchange student from Japan
that stayed in the McGhee
home in July and August of
1979). They took her on a car
tour on the southeastern side
of the island and, also, to a
pineapple farm and on up to
the north shore. There was a
lot of beautiful scenery.
The Kansas group then went
to the Big Island of Hawaii
and toured the Hilo side where
they saw the active volcano,
a Macadamia nut factory and
an Orchid nursery. There was
an orchid worth $22,000. (The
group didnt pay the money
to get to see it.) Then they
went by bus to the west side
of the island to Kono. On the
way they got to see part of
the Parker Ranch, which is a
big cattle ranch. (Something
Shirley has always wanted to
see.) At Kono they attended a
luau and visited several historical places. It was a wonderful trip, she reports.

defense to meet in front of a
judge to discuss possible deals
that would allow the court to
avoid the time and cost of a
trial.
Yoder had been at a local bar
and restaurant and apparently
decided to walk from Garnett
to his home in Mont Ida the
night he was killed. A probable cause affidavit upon which
Wilsons arrest was based said
Yoders body was found by his
mother, who had gone out looking for him, a little after 4:15
a.m.
Wilson is being held in
Anderson County Jail in lieu
of $100,000 bond. Hobbs was
released on a lesser bond shortly after her arrest.
great commission!
In Matthew 28:19-20, Jesus
meets with his disciples prior
to his ascension into heaven
and issues to them what is
called the Great Commission.
Jesus says , All authority
performing the enormous task
that Jesus laid before us. The
text states, teaching them to
obey everything I have commanded you.
This is illustrated well in the
parable of the Good Samaritan.
A man fell into the hands of
robbers and was left to die.
Two holy men, a priest and a
Levite, who served as assistant
to the priest, passed the man
by. But a Samaritan as he traveled saw him and took pity on
the man. Now the Samaritans
were a hated race of people
but the Samaritan saw to the
mans care. What differentiated the Samaritan from the
priest and the Levite? I believe
the Samaritan understood the
price that was paid for his personal redemption, the death of
Christ on the cross, and was
motivated to a personal holiness the other two men had
not attained in spite of their
positions. Peter confirms the
necessity of holiness in 1 Peter
1:16, For it is written: Be
holy, because I (God ) am holy.
Man was created in the
image of God. What does this
mean? Lets look at it this way.
If we strive to attain a higher
degree of holiness, pointing at
Jesus as our model if we move
steadily closer to that every
day, we are becoming more
like Christ every day. Christ is
the Son of God who God said he
is well pleased with. If God
is pleased with Jesus and we
become more like Jesus then
God will be pleased with us.
Which one would you be in
the story the priest, the Levite
or the Samaritan? That will
tell you where you are at in
your quest to fulfill the Great
Commission or on your mission to attain holiness.
WEEKLY
DEVOTIONAL
By David Bilderback
in heaven and on earth has
been given to me. Therefore
go and make disciples of all
nations, baptizing them in
the name of the Father and
the Son and the Holy Spirit,
and teaching them to obey
everything I have commanded you. This command was
never intended to stop with the
apostles. Paul, Barnabas and
Timothy became evangelists as
well proclaiming the gospel of
Christ. Evangelism is our duty
today. God has commanded it.
Part of the reason the church
today is struggling is because
we convert people to become
Christians but we dont necessarily equip them to go any further. And this is because we
have never been equipped ourselves. Evangelism is not only
our duty but God has allowed
us to participate in his greatest
work in human history, the
work of redemption.
The New Testament emphasizes the tremendous cost of
redemption. For you know
that it was not with perishable
things such as silver or gold
that you were redeemed from
the empty way of life handed
down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious
blood of Christ, a lamb without
blemish or defect. (1 Peter
1:19) I believe the second part
of the Great Commission provides us some guidance for
David Bilderback:
A Ministry on the
Holiness of God.

August 8.
The

Athletic
Director of the
Year
Award
is determined
by a peer vote
among the conferences athletics directors. By virtue of
receiving this award at the
conference level, Miller will
also be considered as a candidate for the National Athletic
Director of the Year by the
NAIA Athletic Directors
Association.
University of Saint Marys
athletic program finished
third of 12 institutions in the
KCAC Commissioners Cup
in 2016-17 season. Which is a
major improvement from their
2015-16 and 201415 seasons, finishing seventh of
10. University of
Saint Mary was
also the only team
in the KCAC this
year that had no
ejections.
The Mens
and
Womens
cross
country
teams at Saint
Miller Mary both qualified for the NAIA
National Championships with
the Men placing 14th place
nationally. The Mens basketball team won 22 games
behind All-American Grant
Greenburg, who in January
surpassed Danny Manning
as the all-time leading scorer in Kansas college basket-
ball history. Both the mens
and womens track programs
finished second in the indoor
and outdoor conference championships. Plus, the womens
basketball program surged to
third in the KCAC in 2016-17
after finishing tied for eighth
the previous year. The football program also improved
this past year, recording a 7-2
record in 2016 after a 3-6 mark
in 2015.
Miller has also championed the development of a new
sport at Saint Mary – mens and
womens wrestling. Both programs went live in January,
since then doubling the number of athletic programs to
18 under his watch. He also
has increased the number of
student-athletes by a similar
order of magnitude.
As an AD, Rob personifies the five core values of

mission, and core values of the
university, what it means to
be a Vincentian school, and
why service is so important to
USM.
Miller has also been at the
helm of the Spire baseball program since 2002. Millers experience in teaching and coaching provides a strong foundation for the Spire baseball program. I expect a strong work
ethic and I promote positive
values both on and off the playing field, Miller said. The
University of Saint Mary provides a quality learning atmo-
sphere where student-athletes
are given many opportunities
to excel. I am pleased to be at
Saint Mary.
I appreciate Robs candidness and hes always willing to
jump in and help support others with ideas and information
etc., stated Mike Hermann,

and his wife Amy reside in
Leavenworth with their son,
Sam and daughter, Grace.

comprehensive fact-check of the
Democrats lie that 24 million
people will lose their health
insurance due to repeal bills.
Who knows? Maybe fact-checkers will get around to pointing out that the Congressional
Budget Office believes 14 million of the 24 million are people who will choose not to buy
it in 2018 in the absence of a
penalty. No doubt, fact-checkers will point out that around
six million or more of those
24 million are people the CBO
just assumes would have left
Obamacare markets anyway.
You know, baselines and all.
It is true that Obamacare repeal
legislation whatever the specifics happen to be is going
to be unpopular. Why wouldnt
it be? There isnt a single
Republican lawmaker out there
effectively slapping down these
misleading claims. Voters will
be. Republicans certainly cant
rely on fact-checkers.

In my mind it makes it
much more transparent to say
this is the true cost of operating city hall; this is the true
cost of operating this utility,
Weiner said. He said revising
the process would give a more
clear version of city and utility
operating costs and status.
He said the charter ordinance
either needed to be modified
or repealed, because it really
wasnt applicable to the way
the city had prepared the 2018
budget. He said both the citys
auditor and former city manager Joyce Martin were unaware
of the ordinance.
I dont think there was any
ill will by any means, Weiner
said. I think it was just something that had been overlooked
for many years.
Weiner told commissioners
he would meet with city attorney Terry Solander to discuss
a revision or a repeal of the
ordinance and provide commissioners with options to consider for a decision at a future
meeting.

Sweltering in the dog days of summer 2017 Richmond Free Fair Results
In case you hadnt noticed,
much of the state is mired in
the dog days of summer.
Excessive heat warnings.
Abundant sunshine. High
humidity.
You may not like this weather, but this is July and August
in Kansas. Its what we live
with most years. And while it
may be nothing to brag about,
Kansans and the ancient
Romans have a common appreciation (maybe aversion is a
better word) to hot summer
days.
While some Kansans are fortunate to work, and most of us
live in air-conditioned homes,
the Romans were forced to
retreat to the seaside, a shady
tree or a dip at the local bathhouse to keep cool.
So where did the term dog
days come from?
Ancient Romans noted
that the brightest star in the
night sky Sirius appeared
each year during hot, sultry
weather. Sirius, which originates from the Greek word for
scorcher, became known as
the Dog Star. Consequently, the
hot, steamy weather it brought
was called, dog days.
Believing the star caused
the miserable weather, ancient
Romans sacrificed brown dogs
to appease the rage of Sirius.
Instead of mythology, astrology or old wives tales, we
have meteorology to help us
define whats going on with our
weather. Based on the predictability of todays weather and
it has improved dramatically
some people might argue we
should revert to the techniques
used by the early Romans.
INSIGHT
JOHN SCHLAGECK, Kansas Farm Bureau
Somehow, I seem to have
started this column on the
wrong foot. Maybe its the heat
or lack of moisture. Anyway,
let me begin again.
What does the rest of the
summer and fall weather in
Kansas look like?
To answer this question, I
turned to Bill Gargan, meteorologist with the National
Weather Service in Topeka.
Gargan has studied the weather in Kansas for years.
Because of a large ridge of
high pressure setting above
the Sunflower State, July and
August temperatures will probably be higher than normal.
This could mean somewhere
in the high 80s or mid 90s and
even triple digit temperatures,
Gargan says.
Moisture amounts could be
above or below normal. Its
difficult to predict moisture
amounts during the summer
months in Kansas. There just
arent enough signals to rely
on.
Thunderstorms will continue to be spotty with the potential for some heavy rains with
these isolated storms.
An isolated, small spot on
the Kansas map may receive
an inch or two while just a mile
or less away may only pick up
a trace of moisture, says the
National Weather Service lead
forecaster.
The chance of any widespread rains during the rest
of the summer is unlikely although not impossible.
Instead, Kansas farmers and
ranchers could experience scattered showers and if theyre
lucky enough to experience one
over cropland or pasture, they
should consider themselves
fortunate.
Moisture is going to be
hit and miss for the rest of
the summer and into the fall,
Gargan says. The first early
estimates, are little more than
a guess, indicate above normal
temperatures into the fall.
With the hottest days of summer bearing down on Kansas
reach for your water bottle
and keep your straw hat firmly
anchored on your head. The
rest of the summer may be a
real scorcher maybe even one
for the record books.
What happens remains anybodys guess. Farmers and
livestock producers will keep
a watchful eye toward the
western sky, keep their fingers
crossed and pray for rain.
As for brown dogs in farm
and ranch country beware.

7,808 in 2015, per capita income
rose on average from $34,800 to
$41,831, or 20 percent adjusted
for inflation. Those numbers
compare to an average 5 percent population growth spread
across all Kansas counties and
per capital income growth of 17
percent on average.
Though the population of
the county has declined, the
assessed valuation (portion of
a propertys value to which
property taxes are applied)
has been increasing along with
inflation-adjusted incomes.
Anderson Countys assessed
about 5 percent. Per its population, assessed values increased
6 percent per capita, while the
states average declined 4 percent over the same time period.
But while county residents
on average are enjoying higher
incomes and increasing asset
value of their property, theyve
also been paying more to county taxes, as local tax revenues
and expenditures have both
outpaced statewide averages.
County expenses increased
47 percent in real, inflation-adjusted terms (66 percent unadjusted) from 2007 to 2015. Per

Fifty seven percent of

with unadjusted per capita revenues going up 86 percent. The

Strict sugar allowances go into effect – 100 years ago
10 years ago….
More than a dozen parents
of Anderson County teenagers
will be getting an invitation
from County Attorney Fred
Campbell to view pictures of
what their kids have been up
to lately, specifically a raucous
drinking party in May that
ended in photographs being
taken of a live sex act and its
audience. Campbell said he
made the decision to send out
the letters after weighing a
number of factors, primarily
that parents should have some
knowledge of their kids actions
and that deterrence to such
behavior starts at home.
20 years ago….
Officials with Garnett
Church Furnishings hope to
close the sale of the historic
local manufacturing plant
to a Kansas City-area man
Tuesday. GCF owner Mike
Wedel said last week the sale
of the company was expected
to be finalized Tuesday, but
might be extended to the end
of July if some documentation
wasnt finalized by then. Bill
Buechele, the Shawnee man
purchasing the company, said
he and his wife Connie were
excited about the opportunity.
The company, founded in 1879,
employs 28 workers and is the
oldest continuously operating
manufacturing business in

The citys natural gas contract is still up in the air, due to
a June 23 ruling by the Federal
Court of Appeals that overturned an order which would
have forced the Williams
Brothers Natural Gas company to guarantee open access to
its transmission facilities. The
update on the gas contract saga
came during Tuesday nights
commission meeting. City
Manager Rick Doran told the
commissioners there was no
way to guess when a contract
for the city might be finalized
in view of this most recent
development.

Assessed valuation of taxable property in Anderson
County is more than $2.5 mil-
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, August 1, 2017
Old Garnett dog tags found
lion more than last year, figures released by the County
Clerk show. The total value of
taxable property is $37,615,984
up from $35,109,346 in 1976.
A 9.7 percent increase was
recorded for Garnett where
taxable property is now valued at $6,782,118. City Manager
Mike McDowell credited the
increase to the recent building boom which began last
year. Other cities that showed
increases in property values
were Westphalia, Colony, and
Greeley. Kincaid, Lone Elm,
and Harris showed declines.
100 years ago….
The certificate plan of buying sugar will go into effect
July 15. The government allowance is three pounds of sugar
for each person per month.
All consumers must apply to
the store where they buy their
sugar and sign a certificate for
the same. Do not sign a certificate at more than one store,
as there would be no conservation were a person permitted to
buy at each store in town. This
is the government allowance
and regulation must be strictly lived up to until further
notice. All retailers of sugar
are required to see that this
order is strictly obeyed.
One never knows what
they just might dig up next
around Garnett!
Before I begin writing this
column, I have a couple of
unanswered questions to ask
you?
Who knows what was the
very first year that dog tags
were required to be purchased in Garnett? My second question is, what year
did the tags change from Dog
Tax to Dog License?
Pictured are two of several
Dog Tags I have found while
metal detecting in Garnett.

DIGGING UP THE PAST
Henry Roeckers
Call (785) 448-6244 for
local archeology information.
The one shown on right
is dated 1990 and was found
several years ago. As for the
left one, it is dated 1930 and it
was found this June.
Why did I choose these two
to write about? Lets look at
the left one first. It reads Dog
Tax Garnett, Ks. Number: 5
1930. The top hole has been
torn out and a second hole
drilled near the bottom.
Now look at the one on
the right. It reads 1990 Dog
License Garnett, Kansas
Number 191.
Taking a second look at the
two of them, I noticed that
they are 60 years apart in age,
they are both made from the
same metal and they are both
heart shaped.
Surely they didnt remain
heart shaped for 60 years! Or
did they?
See you never know what
youll find around here. So
just keep on digging!
P.S. If anyone has answers
to the two above questions
please get in touch.

Aug 4-12.
Action begins at 8:00 p.m.
Friday, Aug. 4th with the second annual two car team demolition derby, stated fair board
president Kelly Carbon, Mound
City. We have a full slate of
12 teams entered with 24 cars

compete in a bracket style elimination with two teams (4 cars)
going head to head in each heat.
The surviving teams from each
heat move on to battle in the
finals.
When we expanded to two
nights of demolition derby last
year, there was concern that
adding the Friday night derby
would hurt our car count at
the regular derby on Saturday
night. However, the opposite
happened. We had record 54
cars compete in the traditional
derby.
The Saturday, Aug. 6th
Traditional Demolition Derby
will begin with coronation of
the 2017 Linn County Fair &
Rodeo Queen at 7:30 p.m.

& Tractor sanctioned pulls in
Kansas this year.

EAST KANSAS AGRI-ENERGY, LLC SHAREHOLDERS
My name is Gary Dieterich. My family owns approximately
1% of the outstanding shares of East Kansas Ethanol.
Im concerned about our investment in the renewable diesel project.
I arrived at the plant on July 19, to my dismay and surprise,
the renewable diesel plant was not in production.
In my opinion, the renewable diesel project may have similar
results as the Wood Project we invested in Georgia.
The 2017 Annual Meeting of the Shareholders of
East Kansas Agri-Energy, LLC
will be held
Saturday, August 19, 2017
at the Anderson County Jr/Sr High School Garnett, KS
