Kansas, country responds to Afghanistan carnage
U.S. attacks apparent
ISIS targets after Kabul
airport bombing
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Governor Laura
Kelly ordered flags in the
state flown at half-staff last
Wednesday through yesterday
in honor of the sacrifice of 13
U.S. service personnel killed
in Afghanistan and as many as
170 Afghani civilians by an ISIS
suicide bomber.
Meanwhile, President Joe
Biden ordered successive air
and drone strikes against
believed ISIS personnel in
Kabul, after the terrorist organization claimed responsibility
for the airport bombing.
The deadline for the
American withdrawal, first
moved up from Sept. 11 by
President Biden then embraced
under threat by the Taliban,
is today. Thursdays (Afghan
time) blast also injured 15
other American servicemen
and an as yet unknown number of others among the hoards
crowding the gates to Hamid
Karzai Airport trying to get out
of the country
before
the
final
American
pullout.
President
Joe
Biden
vowed
to
track down
militants
Biden
responsible
for the attack,
but was preparing to stick with
a plan to pull troops out of
Afghanistan despite politi-
cal pressure to extend operations. Kelly made it clear the
thoughts of Kansans were with
the families of the servicemen
and women in harms way.
My father was career Army
and I know firsthand the sacrifices those in our military
and their loved ones make for
our country, Kelly said. My
thoughts are with the families
of the victims of Thursdays
tragic attack in Kabul.

City ready for annual clean & flush
GARNETT The City of Garnett Water
Department will be conducting a free
chlorine burn for disinfection of the water
distribution system beginning September
7, 2021. This process will last about two
to three weeks. Flushing and
chlorine burns are routine
distribution system maintenance conducted by utilities with chloramine
disinfection. Chlorine
burns also reduce the
potential future occurrence of coliform or
other types of
bacteria in the
system.
During
this
free
chlorine
burn,
the water disinfection process
will be changed
from
chloramines to free
chlorine which
is a stronger and
fast-
er-acting disinfectant. The fire hydrants
will be opened to allow flushing of the
system to help remove sediment from the
pipes and distribute the change in disinfectant. Customers may notice open fire
hydrants throughout the city during this
period. At the end of the free burn, the
standard chemicals used for disinfections
will be reintroduced to the system and be
returned to normal operating conditions.
Possible Noticeable Effects: It is
important to understand that during this
temporary change there may be some
discoloration or cloudiness in the water
and possibly a chlorine odor or taste. If
this is experienced, please run the
water through the tap until
it clears.
Minor pressure fluctuations
and small air pockets may
also occur. Fire hydrant flushing should remove most of the color
and odor, but some may reach customer
lines during the process. Discoloration in
laundry is also possible during this time.
It is recommended that customers check
for discolored water before adding clothes
to their washing machine. If discolored

September 11, when Garnett hosts its
annual Fall City Wide Garage Sale.
The Anderson
County Review
will publish a
map and directory of sales
for this years
event.
Maps
will be available
only at sponsoring businesses.
That list of sponsor/map distribution locations will be made available on the Garnett Area Chamber
of Commerce social media platforms
Wednesday, Sept. 8. Maps will be available at those locations the following
Thursday morning, September 9.
A partial list of map locations as of
this date includes Trade Winds Bar &
Grill, Baumans Carpet & Furniture,
the chamber of commerce office and

water appears, customers can set their
washing machine to spin cycle to purge
the water, and then refill the machine
with clear water. In addition, customers
may wish to purchase and use a cleaning
additive to help prevent or remove any
discoloration that may occur.
Is the Water Safe to Drink? Yes, the
water is safe to drink throughout this
process and boiling water is not necessary. Customers may notice a change to
the taste and smell from the water and
may want to let their water tap run for
several
minutes or until the water
runs clear. Any odor and
color issues will subside
as the flushing is completed. Customers who use tap
water for kidney dialysis
at home should properly
monitor their process for
complete neutralization of
disinfectant residual and
should contact their doctor for more information.
Customers utilizing the
water for aquariums should
monitor the chlorine residuals.
Why is this burn out
necessary? The City routinely
collects samples and monitors
the water quality. The Garnett
Water Department is tasked
with ensuring that water in all
points of the system is acceptable to our customers. Over time
minerals and metals, which are
naturally present in water sources, can increase and attach to pipes and
release when there are changes in presSEE FLUSH ON PAGE 5B

targeted U.S. troops guarding
the airport and the civilians
lining up to seek a flight out of
Afghanistan.
The American men and
women currently serving in
Afghanistan to bring U.S. citizens home and evacuate our
partners are heroes and dealing with impossible circumstances, he said.
Some Members of the Kansas
congressional
delegation
denounced the deadly attack
on the airport in Afghanistan.
Two Republicans in the dele-
gation were sharply critical of
Bidens handling of the exodus.
U.S. Rep. Sharice Davids, the
lone Democrat in the Kansas
delegation, said her thoughts
were with families of the dead
and wounded. She said the
attack required an expedited
effort to secure the safety of
our people and allies as soon as
possible.

Republican, said he would pray

and innocent people whose
SEE CARNAGE ON PAGE 2B
Hearing goes private,
judge seeks to quash
subpoena for testimony
GARNETT The details of a
district court hearing scheduled last week to determine if
an Anderson County search
warrant should be declared
invalid are as yet unknown,
since the hearing was
changed from in-person to a
Zoom hearing late in the local
docket schedule.
The hearing was to address
claims made by a defense
attorney for Tommy Emerson
that District Magistrate Judge
Kevin Kimball had a prior
relationship with Emerson
and knew in advance about
methamphetamine use at
Emersons Garnett residence
prior to signing a warrant for
officers to search Emersons
residence in February 2020.
That search resulted in recovered evidence and 13 felony
counts filed against Emerson
including drug possession
and using a cell phone to
make deals involving the narcotic.
District court personnel
told an Anderson County
Review staffer who planned to
cover the hearing on Tuesday
the proceeding had been
switched from an in-court
appearance to a Zoom meeting, and that District Court
Judge Eric Godderz, set to
preside over the hearing, did
not typically post his remote
hearings publicly. An email
inquiry sent to Godderz and
Fourth Judicial District
Administrator John Steelman
seeking comment was not
returned by press time.
An attorney representing Judge Kimball filed a
motion the day prior to the
scheduled hearing asking
that a subpoena requiring
Kimball to appear and testify be quashed. Grant Klise,
an attorney with the Kansas
Supreme Courts Office of
Judicial Admiistration, said
Emerson had so far offered no
details regarding Kimballs
alleged prior knowledge or
how it affected the justification for the warrant.
Regardless of what counsel expects Mr. Emerson
to testify to, the fact is that
neither the State nor Mr.
Emerson have provided any
specific factual allegations
regarding the supposed contact between Judge Kimball
and Mr. Emerson, Klises
motion reads. Mr. Emersons
motion to suppress and
motion to continue make bare
bones states that some sort
of significant contact existed
between Judge Kimball and
Mr. Emerson. It remains to

Toddys Back Porch
cocktail lounge opens
for business in Garnett
GARNETT The closing of several bars
in town was the impetus for a local
mans effort to build the areas newest
cocktail lounge in Garnett.
Jim Todd said Toddys Back Porch,
which opened officially this past weekend at 26192 NE Neosho, was designed to
fill a need for a relaxing hang-out where
customers can visit and have a cocktail
in a low-key atmosphere.
In the last couple of years youve
lost Maloans, youve lost Racers, youve
lost Mr. Ds, Todd said last week. We
thought the community needed a cocktail lounge.
Todd helped organize some 25 local
investors who joined in the idea and provided funding. He said the overall idea
was to keep the operation as simple as
possible in both size and scope and not to
overcomplicate the operation. We basically intend to run it with one person,
Todd said.
General manager Susan Owens said
Toddys will feature a wood-fired oven
and will serve pizza and wings along
with standard cocktails, beers and some
draft brands. She said initial plans are to
be open for lunch at 11 a.m. on Monday,
closed Tuesday, and open Wednesday
through Saturday at 4 p.m.

August 23, 2021 at the Anderson County
Commission Room.

Leslie McGhee, Present: David Pracht,
Present: Anthony Mersman, Present.
The pledge of allegiance was recited.
Minutes from the previous meeting were
approved as presented.
Road & Bridge
Lester Welsh, Road & Bridge
Supervisor, met with the commission.
Discussion was held on county roads
and replacing pipes. The Commissioners
talked about recruiting staff for the road
department and how to keep the current
employees.
Bandstand
Sherry Benjamin requested the use
of the bandstand on the courthouse on
the third Saturday in September for various bands to play music. She is hoping
to continue throughout the fall months
or utilize the community building if the
weather is bad.
IT Staffing
Adam Wilson, Appraiser, and Harold
DeForest, Deputy County Treasurer,
met with the commission. The
Commissioners talked with Harold about
Adam becoming a back up IT person for
the county and what that entailed. Julie
Wettstein, County Clerk, provided the
Commissioners a breakdown of how
much the county has paid Advantage
Computers in labor over that past 5
years. Harold said Adam would be a
good backup if he is unable to leave
the Treasurers office or is gone. Harold
will train Adam on the county software
system and what the departments use.
Commissioner Mersman moved and
Commissioner Pracht seconded to compensate Adam Wilson $3,500 in 2021
with an additional $1,000 each year not
to exceed $6,500 effective 08/26/2021
for IT services for the county. All voted
yes.
Sheriff
Vern Valentine, Sheriff, met with the
commission. He discussed increasing
the wages of his certified deputies so
his department can be competitive with
the changes the City of Garnett made
recently. Vern thinks a $2.00 increase in
the pay ranges would help tremendously. Certified deputies currently begin
at $17.41/hour. Vern has the funds
in his budget currently to cover the
increase for 2021. Commissioner Pracht
moved and Commissioner Mersman
seconded to increase the pay ranges
for all certified officers $2.00 effective
08/28/2021. The ranges include certified deputy, chief deputy, detective,
and undersheriff. All voted yes. Sheriff
Valentine also requested an increase in
pay from his current salary of $63,654
to $75,000 to take effect in January
2022. Commissioner Pracht moved and
Commissioner Mersman seconded to
increase the sheriff salary to $75,000 to
take effect January 2022. All voted yes.
Appraiser
Adam Wilson, Appraiser, met with the
commission. He presented bids for a new
printer/copier/fax machine for his office.
Bids were from Digital Connections for
a Lanier IMC4500 for $6,395 and from
Salina Blue for a Epson WF-C869R for
$6,595. Commissioner Pracht moved
and Commissioner Mersman seconded
to purchase a Lanier IMC4500 from
Digital Connections for $6,595 to be
paid out of the Reappraisal fund. All
voted yes. Discussion was held on possibly adding a GIS tech position to the
appraisers office. Adam will draft a job
description to have it evaluated by the
salary committee. This position will cut
the cost of outsourcing current projects/
work that is being done.
Kwikom Fiber
John Cary and Eric Vogel, Kwikom,
met with the commission. Discussion
was held on Kwikom providing information for Anderson County to become
a fiber connected county and using
the ARPA funds. Kwikom would run
fiber connectivity to Colony, Kincaid, and
Westphalia as it is already provided in
Garnett and Greeley. The commission
requested additional information and
a cost breakdown before it would be
considered for the use of the American
Rescue Plan Act monies.

Colony Christian Church Make Time to Mentor
Bruce Symes gave the
Communion Meditation over
the article Advice, that he
adapted from the www.becomingcloser.org website. We
come to a point in our lives
where we offer advice to God.
Sometimes we tell him our plan
for our life and his part in it.
Other times we tell him only
the part of our plan where he
participates. Or we may not tell
God anything, but implement
it on our own and assume he
knows his role. It is extremely
arrogant of us to give advice
to God like we know what is
best for us. God is not here to
serve us, but to BE served by
us. He is the master potter, and
we are the clay, waiting to be
formed into whatever he wishes to form us into. (Ref: Romans
9:14-21)
Pastor Chase Riebel gave
the sermon Make time to mentor over Acts 18:1-28. Chuck
Swindoll compared mentoring to a relay race. You have
to train and practice together
before you can properly pass
off the baton to another person, and sometimes you may be
practicing for months or even
years. In our walk with God,
we work on handing off Jesus
to others by mentoring them.
Paul spent a lot of time with
Aquila and Priscilla, who were
tentmakers like he was. As they
worked, he trained them in the
ways of Jesus. There are three
ways to effectively mentor to
others: Stay close, Be devoted to
the Scriptures, and Stick with
it. First, we need to spend time
with those we are mentoring,
face to face. It is always easier to
learn with someone you know
and trust and can spend quality
time together. Paul was devoted
to Gods Word and would teach
others the scriptures by testifying how they have affected him.
And he didnt sugar coat them.
To be true to the scriptures,
you must tell them like theyre
written. And sometimes being
a long term mentor is what is
needed, and what God may be
calling you to do. Staying faithful to what you are teaching
is key. Mentor without being
controlling. Let those you have
mentored go out and mentor
others. Trust those you have
trained. (Ref: Acts 2:42 & 18:128; 1 Corinthians 1:24 & 4:16;
Hebrews 12:1-2) Hear this and

How shall we escape?
I believe that part of becoming a strong and mature
Christian is understanding the
power of almighty God. When
you wake in the morning do
you realize that God has kept
you alive all night. If he didnt
what did you do to help him?
Not many of us realize how
complex the human body is.
We take for granted that our
bodies will always perform as
required. The human body was
created by God, doctors can
certainly perform procedures
that restore or prolong human
life but with every procedure
they will explain the risks
involved and the side effects
that procedure may have.
Our bodies wear down over
time, no doctor can reverse
that process. In Hebrews 9:27
we read, Just as man is destined to die once and after that
face the judgment. Each of
us has a span of time determined by God and God alone.
Is God all powerful? Yes he is.
Everyday that we are alive we
do so at Gods pleasure.
In Revelation 21:6 God says,
I am the Alpha and the Omega,
the beginning and the end.
Each of us has a beginning and
an end. We have a birth certificate and we will have a death
certificate. God has neither.
God not only created and
sustains man but his power
is evident in nature. Do you
realize no one knows how
many stars there are, and no
one can make it rain or snow,
or the wind blow or cease. We
think we can get a good crop
by using certified seed, good
tillage practices, fertilizer and
chemical but what is it that
really brings a good crop in?
It is rain sent from the hand of
God.
All this brings us to a few
questions. Does God have any
place in your life? When is the
last time you prayed or went to
church? When is the last time
you thanked God for the many
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
blessings you have received?
In Leviticus 26:9-12 God tells
the people what he will do if
they are obedient and follow
him. He would look on them
with favor, he would make
them fruitful and increase
their numbers, he would provide a bountiful harvest year
after year. Ultimately God
says, I will put my dwelling
place among you, and I will not
abhor you. I will walk among
you and be your God and you
will be my people.
This much I know. God
loves you and I. No matter who
you are or what you have done
God loves you. In fact he loved
you so much he sent his Son
Jesus Christ to die on a cross
for our sins so we could be reconciled unto him. When Jesus
went to the cross he took all the
sins of the world, past, present
and future upon himself. He
took our sin and imputed or
assigned his righteousness to
us. If we fail to receive Jesus
as our Savior then we are separated from God. Tonight when
you lay your head on your pillow and hear the clock ticking,
consider whether you are right
with God. You are alone then
with your thoughts, The writer to the Hebrews asks a most
important question, How
shall we escape if we ignore so
great a salvation. It is a rhetorical question we wont we
will be separated from God for
eternity.

OPINION
Not just Bidens disaster
Nothing in America and the world is better
under President Joe Biden. Nothing. Kabuls
fall and the fallout surrounding it are just the
latest, most tragic and deadly examples.
But dont be fooled this is NOT Joe Bidens
fault. No, the catastrophic collapse of the past
seven months is bigger than him. The blame
does not lie with President Biden it belongs
with the Democrats. All of them.
The U.N., our allies, the mainstream media
and even some prominent Democrats are starting to shift blame to Biden. Theyre showing
pictures of him alone in the Situation Room at
Camp David, stepping off Marine One alone.
Even the president is claimipeggy-grande.
jpgng, The buck stops with me. Dont fall into
their trap.
The Democrats cant deny that they are
accomplices. They own this mess collectively
and need to be blamed and held accountable
collectively. They cant be allowed to float while
they sink him.
This unprecedented implosion belongs to
every member of Democrat leadership those
in power now and those who started us down a
dangerous pathway of undermining American
exceptionalism, beginning with the 2008 Obama
world apology tour. Our own president undercut our status as a world leader. Barack Obama
and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton wanted
America to be loved, not feared. Today, neither
is true.
I hate to fathom this was the Democrats plan
all along and theyre getting exactly what they
wanted. Yet the dots only connect to that one
conclusion.
Democrats dont believe America should
lead on the world stage. They dont believe that
a strong America creates a safer world. They
believe in the good of the collaborative, the very
roots of socialism. They believe in the world
as they want it to be not as it is. They say one
thing while reality shows something entirely
different. Americans and the world see this and
know the truth the Democrats are lying to
them.
Democrats claim to care about every life yet
have created a situation in which an unknown
number of Americans have been abandoned
behind enemy lines and in essence are hostages
to a terrorist organization. Their lives are in
grave danger. Texts from the State Department
wont save them.
Democrats talk about being champions for
women and girls, yet have condemned a generation of Afghan females to live under sharia law,
which will strip them of all freedoms, rights,

protections and access to education. Hashtags
and standing with them wont protect them
from unimaginable horrors.
Democrats have abandoned the singular reason for the military to protect America and
Americans. They have shamefully turned the
Pentagon into a laboratory for social issues.
I wonder how many trapped Americans are
supportive of the militarys recent focus on
BLM, climate change, transgender issues and
bending to the will of the woke left. Perhaps
the Department of Defense should have been
reading intelligence reports rather than their
Twitter feed.
Surrender in Afghanistan has triggered a
tsunami of consequences that will diminish our
capacity to lead the world for years to come.
Joe Biden and the Democrats have let down
our allies and driven a wedge between our nation
and the nations of the U.N. The Democrats have
insulted our partners and brothers in arms in
Afghanistan and endangered America by bowing down to a terrorist organization.
The Democrats owe the taxpayers an explanation for unnecessarily abandoning billions of
dollars of assets, facilities and equipment. That
equipment will likely be reverse engineered by
China and used against America and her allies
in future conflicts. Yes, the Democrats caused
that too.
The Democrats failed withdrawal is facilitating Chinas support of Afghanistan. China
is more than happy to help the Taliban build
a new government and take over American
resources, technology and a treasure trove of
Afghan rare earth minerals while theyre at it.
Democrats promised that this administration would be the most experienced and diplomatic and ready to right the wrongs of the

Hey Phone Forum. I see the cancel culture is
alive and well in good ole Garnett. This person that called, youre seriously attacking a
church a church of all things; because they
rented their meeting room to someone to show
a movie in it that you dont agree with? Sounds
like a typical snowflake liberal to me. And
youre bashing them and telling people not to
support that church because of that? Are you a
poor little snowflake that cant handle it when
somebody disagrees with you? Poor widdle
snowflake. Well just make your world all soft
and cushy so you can be in your little bubble
with your widdle fragile self esteem where no
one will argue with you. I think everybody in
town ought to double their donations to that
church this week and build their meeting room
on even bigger. Get back on your mommys
apron strings shell protect you.
As a biker, people mowing grass, putting it out
in the street everywhere, last year I know of
10 bikers in Kansas and Oklahoma that died
because of the grass in the street that was wet
and slick. I think the city ought to have an ordiannce about blowing grass in the street. Protect
everybody. Thank you.
Seriously if you or a loved one was going in
to get an operation at the hospital, would you
or would you not want your doctor to wear a
mask? Something to ponder.
Respect your nurses. For they are the ones who
have to clean up you after you poop all over
yourself.
I dont think having a hate Biden, hate mask
meeting at a church is a wise thing to do. No
matter how many posts you have about meetings you cannot bring Trump back. I voted
for him but once I saw his crowd destroy our
nations capital I regretted my vote. Bidens not
perfect but he is our president.
Contact your elected leaders:
President Joseph Biden
There was no reason to pull out of Afghanistan
Last year, many of us called on President
Donald Trump not to withdraw from
Afghanistan, as he seemed intent on doing.
We argued that it would be a humiliating surrender to an enemy we had already defeated
and a disastrous error. President Joe Biden
has now implemented the withdrawal, and
the consequences have been as disastrous as
feared.
President Trumps policy and President
Bidens decision were not required by any
facts on the ground. The United States and
Afghanistan had achieved a strategic balance.
The number of American soldiers there had
been brought down to less than 3,000 from a
wartime high over 150,000, and not one of our
troops had been killed in battle for more than
a year.
That is because they and we were no longer
at war in Afghanistan. Our mission there
was to counter terrorists who want to kill
Americans and to give backup support to the
Afghan government and military, which were
building and defending their nation.
President Biden must have understood part
of what would be lost if we withdrew when,
in June, he raised with Russian President
Vladimir Putin a plan to essentially reconstitute our counterterrorism mission in
Afghanistan to a friendly neighboring country
in Central Asia. Putin naturally objected. Yet
COMMENTARY
JOE LIEBERMAN, FMR. U.S. SENATOR
President Biden went ahead with the pullout
anyway.
The inevitability of a rising anti-American
terrorist threat from Afghanistan as a result of
our withdrawal has already become clear just
days after the Taliban victory. On Sunday,
National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan
said the threat from ISIS to Americans in
Afghanistan is real, acute and persistent.
That is why, as I watch the heartbreaking
scenes of human suffering, death and desperation in Afghanistan, I keep saying, None of
this had to happen. The decision to withdraw
was tragically unnecessary.
Ive known President Biden for more than
40 years. He is a good and caring person and
an experienced and skillful elected official. I
am sure he is deeply troubled by the harmful
consequences of his decision on people in
Afghanistan and must be asking himself how
it could have gone so wrong.
If the United States were a parliamentary
democracy, it is quite possible that this Biden
government would fall. But we are not. The
Biden administration has been in office only
seven months and has about 3 years to go.
The presidents priority now to evacuate as
many Americans and friendly Afghans as
soon as possible is, of course, the right one.
But there is something else he can do now for
our country and himself.
There is an urgent need for President Biden
to initiate a review of the decision-making process of his White House and administration in
this matter, including the advice he received
from his top aides, as well as the planning for
the evacuation, which was clearly and outrageously inadequate.
There are tough questions President Biden
must ask, including:
Why and how did he make the decisions he
did? Did he ask for, and listen to, the opinions
of people who were critical of his long-held
desire to withdraw from Afghanistan?
Was he well-served by those in his adminisSEE LIEBERMAN ON PAGE 5A

5th Dist. Rep. Mark Samsel
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
Mark.Samsel@house.ks.gov
Poor Ron Klain.
Its not a good sign when a White House
chief of staff to a Democratic president wants
to re-tweet favorable news coverage and all he
can find is the least credible and most slavishly loyal commentators on the internet.
The Afghanistan fiasco has created that
most disorienting and discomfiting experience for a progressive administration — a serious bout of critical media coverage immune to
White House spin and determined to tell the
unvarnished story of an ongoing debacle.
The White House and its allies have lashed
out at what they are portraying as an insular,
pro-war media ignoring its many successes in
the Afghan evacuation.
This, like Ron Klains tweeting, is a sign
of desperation and of a feeling of outraged
betrayal that usually dependable allies have,
on this story, switched sides. Say its not so,
CNN.
The White House is unfamiliar with what
its like to be on the receiving end of the kind
of media feeding frenzy that Florida Gov. Ron
DeSantis experiences every other day (almost
always involving spurious storylines).
But on Afghanistan, Joe Biden in effect set
out to test how much shameless incompetence
and dishonesty the media would accept. The
answer? Not nearly enough.
The press is blatantly biased and has
become even more so over time, repeatedly propagating false narratives that have
shredded its credibility. Still, there are limits
beyond which even it cant be pushed.
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
Biden said that the Afghan withdrawal
wouldnt be another Saigon within weeks of
Saigon-like scenes of a hasty evacuation of the
U.S. embassy, of terrified Afghans clinging to
a U.S. transport plane, of desperate Afghans
passing their infants over the barbed wire to
Western soldiers guarding the Kabul airport.
There is no number of look-on-the-brightside briefings that are going to overcome these
indelible images, and even a journalist who
tilted heavily toward Biden in 2020 and supports his agenda was going to be hard-pressed
to look away.
The contradiction in Bidens case for withdrawal was also too stark to ignore. He originally justified his pullout because the Afghan
government and military were capable of
defending the country without us, then he
justified his exit because the government and
military collapsed so quickly. Which was it?
Much of what Biden has said in his remarks
and press conferences has been vulnerable
to instant fact checks. When he said that
Americans werent having trouble getting
through to the airport, reporters could immediately attest that it wasnt true.
Who was everyone supposed to believe?
Bidens misleading assurance, or CNN reporter Clarissa Wards compelling report from outside the Kabul airport that she was threatened
with a whip for not covering her face and her
producer nearly pistol whipped? Ward said it
was mayhem and a miracle that more people havent been very, very seriously hurt.
The plaints from the administration and its
most committed journalistic supporters that
the coverage has been unfair and the product
of a press biased toward interventionism ring
hollow.
It is certainly true that the East Coast
media has more cosmopolitan attitudes than
the rest of the country, but its hardly full of
committed foreign policy hawks. The press
didnt notably dissent from President Barack
Obamas pullout from Iraq in 2011 or his nuclear deal with Iran. It has steadfastly favored the
so-called peace process in the Middle East.
Its not as though only the American media
has noticed Bidens ineptitude, either. If anything, our foreign allies have been harsher
about the humiliating mess Biden has stumbled into (former British prime minister Tony

100 years ago….State taxes take historic 50% jump
10 years ago…
The start of a new school
year brought a new face at
the helm of the district of the
Crest USD 479 school district.
Jerry Turner is serving as
Crest superintendent and high
school principal. He succeeds
former superintendent Lee
Jones.

With a good yielding wheat
harvest under their belt and
potential for a good corn crop
on the horizon, Anderson
County farmers may be receiving a little better financial news
this summer and fall. Kansas
State University Ag Extension
Agent Jill Zimmerman said
reports of wheat yield as high
as 100 bushels per acre had
been received, with averages
somewhere around 65-70 bushels.

If any one individual in
Anderson County has earned
the title of Mr. Anderson

be Anderson County Extension
Agent Maurice Harrington.

After 31 years of service to the
community, Harrington has
announced that the 1991 fair
would be his last as agriculture
agent for the county. He has
decided to retire. His retirement becomes effective in the
spring of 1992, but due to the
amount of vacation and sick
time Harrington has accumulated, he will be able to vacate
his office by September 17.

The new nine-digit zip codes
for box holders and large-quantity mailers have arrived, but
none have yet been assigned
to city or rural addresses,
said Don Hampton, Garnett
postmaster. Hampton said the
government has not informed
him as to when city and rural
people will receive their new
codes. The new codes will consist of the old codes plus a dash
and four new numbers. The
new zip codes will be voluntary but beneficial to all users
because it will make delivery
of mail more efficient for postal
personnel.

According to the Topeka
State Journal, the state taxes
will be increased fifty percent
or more this year. The Journal
puts it up this way: The state
tax levy for this year will be
2.235 mills as against 1.4 mills
last year an average of more
than fifty five percent. It is the
biggest boost in state taxes in
the history of Kansas. The new
levy means property owners
will pay for state purposes
alone, a total of 22.35 cents on
each $100 property valuation as
against 14 cents last year.

The next rural migration
Labor Day warning – Drive sober or get pulled over
Greg Doering, Kansas Farm
Bureau
There were no surprises
in the recently released 2020
census numbers that will be
used to draw new lines for congressional and state senate and
house districts. Kansas grew,
but at a rate slower than the
nation overall. Rural areas
largely saw their populations
dwindle while metros swelled,
an ongoing trend since the
industrial revolution.
Overall, rural parts of the
country lost 226,000 people in
the past decade to urban and
suburban places, which grew
by more than 20 million. As a
state, were slightly older and
more diverse, overall. Beyond
the obvious demographic
shifts, the census numbers
mean political power is shifting, too.
This is worrisome not
because the issues facing cities
and towns are all that different
from the challenges across the
countryside. Its because far
too often a policy or program
that works in one area is a total
bust when expanded to another.
Many of the challenges we
face across the state are the
same, from housing and childcare to taxes and labor shortages. The solutions to these are
nearly as varied as the more
than 2.9 million people who call
Kansas home.
But with fewer folks walking in the statehouse or the
halls of Congress with rural
backgrounds means theres
less understanding of the challenges and opportunities that
exist in communities where
the nearest neighbor might be
a quarter-mile or more away.
The rules and regulations that
make sense in cities where people interact with one another
more frequently are often ineffective or even counterproductive in less populated areas.
While the proportional political power flowing to cities carries real risks for those of us
who enjoy rural lifestyles, we
still have a lot of capacity to
shape the outcomes of laws.
I dont expect our big city
citizens to wield their growing
power over their country cousins with malice. But theres
only so many issues we have
the time to fully grasp. Selfinterest being what it is, we
usually dont stray too far outside our immediate neighborhood when trying to solve a
problem.
Thats why its so important to tell the story of farming
and ranching, the benefits of
rural living and, most importantly, why people who do none
of those should listen. Theyre
not going to agree with you on
everything, but through con-
versations with friends, family
and business partners, greater
understanding of rural issues
and their solutions is possible.
Its also a good opportunity
to talk about the quality of life
available in the country and
small towns. Most arent looking to give up their lives in the
city, but in a world where its
increasingly common to work
anywhere, the choice of where
workers live is everywhere.
That means one of the primary
drivers of urbanization is perhaps at its weakest point since
the steam engine was invented.
Technology alone wont
undo centuries of change
quickly, but its certainly a
welcome tool in reviving rural
living. Not only does this mean
access to jobs that allow people
to stay in rural areas, but benefits like clean air and water,
less stress and traffic and more
privacy are certainly going to
be enticing to some city folks
as well. By the time the next
census comes around, theres
a real chance the story will be
about the dawning of the next
rural migration.

Bureau, the state's largest farm

On the 19th of August,
twelve fun loving people gathered to enjoy an evening playing 13-point pitch. Ten games
were played with the following
winners: Don Smith won high
with 9 games won, Betty Still
was low, Doug MacIntosh won
the 50/50 (as many games won
as lost) and Dorthy Spencer
had the most perfect 13 point
games with 4.
August 26th brought thirteen pitch players together.
Ten games were played with
the following results: Jackie
Waddle won high with 8 games
won, Carla Ewert was low,
there was no 50/50 winner and
Ray Wards won the most per-

Thursdays at 6:00 p.m. Bring a

Anderson County, said the
U.S. House should reconvene
promptly for meetings to learn
more about events unfolding
in Kabul. The GOP lawmaker said withdrawal of military
forces should be blocked until
all Americans and our allies
are safely out of Afghanistan.
Its our duty to protect
Americans. No excuses,
LaTurner said. We must
make it abundantly clear to
the Taliban, ISIS and all other
extremist groups that any
attacks on American citizens
in Afghanistan will be met
with the full force of the United
States military.
About 500 U.S. Army soldiers stationed at Fort Riley
near Junction City, Kansas,
are expected to deploy to U.S.
military bases to assist with
temporary housing and other
support of people evacuated
from Afghanistan. The Kansas
troops are expected to be at
Fort McCoy in Wisconsin, Fort
Lee in Virginia, Fort Bliss in
Texas or Joint Base McGuireDix-Lakehurst in New Jersey.
Biden has sought to complete the U.S. withdrawal by
the Aug. 31 deadline, which represented an extension from the
deal struck in February 2020
by President Donald Trump
to depart Afghanistan by May
2021. Trumps agreement with
the Taliban included the pledge
to withdraw U.S. forces and to
compel release of about 5,000
Taliban fighters from Afghan
prisons.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, August 31, 2021
AAA Kansas helps improve
roadside safety of law
enforcement officers
AAA Kansas, with support
from the AAA Kansas Traffic
Safety Fund, has donated sets
of digital road flare lights to
about two dozen smaller police
departments and sheriffs offices across the Sunflower State,
to help increase visibility and
safety when officers work roadside emergency incidents in
dark conditions.
Many people, including law
enforcement officers, road construction crews and tow truck
operators, such as our AAA
emergency roadside service
technicians, are in put perilous
situations while working their
daily jobs, often just feet away
from passing traffic, said
Shawn Steward, AAA Kansas
spokesman. In AAA Kansas
ongoing commitment to educating motorists about Move
Over safety laws and protecting roadside workers, it is our
honor to donate these highly
visible flare kits to our Kansas
law enforcement partners, to
help them return home safely
to their families after nighttime
duties along the roadways.
The Rawlins County
Sheriff's Office sends our
thanks and appreciation for the
generous donation of the digital
flare kits, said Undersheriff
Catlyn Wahrman. The safety of our deputies is of the
utmost importance, along with
the safety of our community.
The flares have already been
used multiple times working
accidents and helping disabled
motorists, after dark and in
low-visibility conditions. With
small agencies like ours, budgets are always tight, and dona-
tions like this allow us to use
our limited funds for additional important items. Thank you,
AAA Kansas Traffic Safety
Fund.
These lights are being kept
and carried by the Sergeant on
night shift, said Bo Jacobs,
Sergeant, Seward County
Sheriffs Office. They are
being utilized for accidents and
are a great tool for our office.
Move Over Laws
Move Over laws exist in all
50 states. AAA and other traffic safety advocates have been
instrumental in the passage
of laws to better protect tow
truck drivers, road construction workers and other first
responders.
Kansas Move Over law
requires drivers approaching
a stationary emergency vehicle displaying flashing lights,
including towing and recovery
vehicles, traveling in the same
direction, to vacate the lane
closest if safe and possible to
do so, or slow to a speed safe
for road, weather, and traffic
conditions. In Kansas, the original law took effect in 2000 to
protect law enforcement officers. It has been expanded over
the years to to reduce risk to
roadside construction crews,
emergency responders and tow
operators and waste collection
vehicles. It was most recently broadened during the 2021
Kansas Legislative session to
include to utility and telecommunications crews.
If motorists are cited for violating this statute, they will
face a $75 fine plus, potentially,
additional court costs.

Other processes such as nitrification and the growth of biofilm can also occur in water
distribution pipes. The biofilm
growth can cause a reduction
in the effectiveness of residual
disinfectants over time. This

help cleanse the lines, reduce
the occurrence of nitrification
and biofilm, and ensure that
we provide quality water for
