Deal lets man escape felon possessing firearm charge in Crest burglary
Plea deal made by
previous prosecutor
hamstrings Lohff case
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY A Colony man
is expected to be sentenced
Wednesday on a single charge
of burglarizing Crest High
School, after a plea agreement
with Anderson Countys former county attorney which
allowed him to avoid more serious charges, including being a
felon in possession of a firearm.
Joshua Lohff, 34 of Colony,
was arrested in late October
of last year after Crest surveillance video captured him
entering and roaming the hallways and womens bathrooms
and locker rooms of the Crest
school facility. Colony City
Marshall Angela Gardner said
in a probable cause affidavit
for Lohffs arrest that video
captured him accessing the
building via a rooftop entrance
on two occasions, at 4:30 a.m.
and later about 5 a.m., both
times with enough clarity in
the image that he was identified by multiple individuals in
Colony after she posted screen
captures of the video on social
media.
Gardner said Lohff remained
in the building surveying
locker rooms
and
bathrooms carrying a dark
colored bag,
at one point
entering the
girls athletic
Lohff
locker room
with a step
ladder before he apparently
became alerted to a school custodian vacuuming in a nearby
room, at which time he discarded the step ladder and left
the building. During his arrest,
Gardners affidavit says Lohff
had a test tube container in his
pocket that field tested positive
for methamphetamine.
Lohff faced several criminal
charges in Oklahoma, including burglary charges in 2017
and a felony charge in 2018 of
concealing stolen property. He
pled guilty to the felony and
received a 10-year sentence
deferral prior to a 2022 marijuana possession charge after
a traffic incident resulted in
the additional discovery of a
loaded 40 caliber handgun magazine and a modified air pistol,
which prosecutors at the time
alleged violated the terms of
his prior sentence deferment
and constituted a charge of a
felon in possession of a firearm.
A plea deal in the case later
dismissed the firearm charge.
Lohff also received a diversion on a felony drug charge in
2020 in Labette County, Kansas,
in a followup 2023 plea deal
that also resulted in a deferred
sentence. He waived his preliminary hearing in December
2024 on the Anderson County
charge and agreed to plea to
the burglary complaint in
a deal struck with Elizabeth
Oliver, Anderson Countys former prosecutor, partially on a
finding by 4th District Court
Services Officer Todd Rhodes
that the Oklahoma felony
remained deferred and couldnt
be used in the felon in possession of a firearm charge in
Anderson County.
Gardners probable cause
affidavit said a search of
Lohffs home subsequent to his
arrest on the Crest burglary
charge discovered a .22 rifle

Sheriff pitches plan to bring county
emergency management under his wing
Plan would emulate
Miami County arrangement
organized under sheriff
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Anderson County
Commissioners heard a proposal
from newly elected County Sheriff
West McClain on Monday that would
group the countys Emergency
Management Department under the
Sheriffs Department while keeping the countys
rural fire operation as a separate
entity.
McClain introduced
Miami
County
Sheriff
Frank Kelly to
McClain
commissioners
who
explained
a similar arrangement in Miami
County that Kelly said had worked
far better organizationally then a
prior arrangement which was more
similar to the one used in Anderson
county.
The proposal follows the recent
dismissal of Emergency Management
director Mark Locke after months of
controversy involving the department, which is charged with managing overall emergencies in the
county and managing the countys
organization of rural firefighters stationed at communities throughout
the county, while working in tandem with county sheriffs officers,

Police and Garnetts own volunteer dramatically after 9/11, when masfire department. Those tangential sive amounts of federal tax money

from a hired director that answered
to the Miami County
Administrator, who
then answered to
county commissioners. The sheriffs
department staffs
a deputy whose primary responsibility
is emergency management and coordination with other
responder
agencies who reports to
the sheriff. Kelly
said he believed the
MICO system had
the advantage that
an elected sheriff
was more directly
accountable to county residents than a
hired director of an
independent department.
Being elected,
we take it seriously every day, Kelly
said.

Wilper files appeal of conviction
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA The Kansas Court of
Appeals will decide in coming
weeks whether to hear an appeal
from convicted Garnett child
molester Joe Wilper after Wilpers
defense attorney filed a notice of
the action in January.
Wilper was sentenced earlier
in January to more than 27 years
in prison and ineligible for parole
until at least 23 years after he
was convicted in October of six
related felonies. Anderson County
Attorney Steve Wilson said the
court received notice the appeal
had been filed January 13.
Appellate
actions typically
take 18 months
if the court
agrees to hear
a case requesting
appeal.
Wilson said the
Kansas Attorney
Wilper Generals office
will handle the
appeal
case.
If accepted, the case involves a

fire vehicles when needed. He has
a personal truck with all equipment
needed to repair the trucks. Mr. Blake
is unable to get liability insurance
coverage when working on emergency vehicles so being employed by
Anderson County may alleviate that
issue. Julie Wettstein will check with
the countys insurance carrier on coverages. Discussion was tabled until
further information is gathered. Cruz
had Commissioner McGhee sign a
red light permit for Tabitha Chambers
that was misplaced. The county has
a drone that needs a certified pilot
to operate. At this time, only Daniel

Rex M. Hiner, 84, of Greeley,
Colorado, formerly of Lamar,
Colorado,
passed away
peacefully
on January
30, 2025, at
his
home
in Greeley,
Colorado
surrounded
by his loved
Hiner
ones.
Born
on
December 13, 1940, in Garnett,
Kansas, Rex was the son of
Lewis and Arlene (Dreibelbis)
Hiner. His childhood was full
of adventure and mischief, as
his siblings will gladly attest!
He often told the tale of walking uphill to school both ways,
through all kinds of weathera
story his family later learned
was far from the truth, as the
school was actually on level
ground! These stories, along
with his quick wit, reflected his
playful spirit that never waned.
Growing up on the family
farm, Rex learned the value of
hard work early on, a lesson he
carried with him throughout
his life. In his teenage years,
he developed a love for working on cars with his brothers
and friends. The boys would
pile into their cars and drive
around the town square, often
getting into a little mischief.
One night, they even blew up a
tire tube behind the local bank
just to see what would happen!
Rex was first married to
Betty Foushee and together they had three daughters:
Tamera, Lori, and Penny. But it
was in February 1968, when he
met Sharon, the love of his life.
They married later that year
on New Years Eve. In 1969,
the couple moved to Colorado
Springs, Colorado with only
$100 to their name. In October
of 1970, they welcomed their
daughter Kim into the world.
Rex and Sharon shared an
entrepreneurial spirit, and
in 1972, they founded R. M.
Hiner Construction Co., Inc.
They moved to Montezuma,
Kansas, and then to Sublette,
Kansas, where the companys
first office was established. In
October of 1976, they welcomed
their son Chad. The family
remained in Sublette, Kansas
until 1979, when their business brought them to Lamar,
Colorado, where they built a
thriving company. At one
point, they had crews working
in six different states with over
200 employees. Rex worked
on the job sites, while Sharon
managed the office.
In 1980, Rexs work on the
pipeline took him to northern
Colorado. In 1992, they purchased 160 acres in Greeley,
Colorado giving them two
working yards for their growing company. But Rex wasnt
done yet. Rexs desire to keep
expanding led him and Sharon
to build an 80-space trailer
park in Lamar, Colorado and
acquire several rental properties. Additionally, inspired by
his childhood love for farming, he and Sharon bought a
200-acre farm in Lamar, where
they founded Hiner Cattle
Company. Over the years, they
purchased more land and grew
the business, now encompassing roughly 12,000 acres and
over 800 head of cattle.
In 2001, Rex decided to retire,
but retirement didnt last long.
He quickly returned to work as
a pipeline inspector, traveling
to Arizona, New Mexico, Texas,
Utah, Louisiana, and Virginia.
Both Rex and Sharon enjoyed
the experience, as it allowed
them to explore new places
together. Rexs meticulous
work earned him the admiration and respect of his peers in
the natural gas pipeline industry.
After retiring for good, Rex
and Sharon were drawn to the
natural beauty of Greeley, with
its lakes and mountain views
and it gradually became their
home. Rex lived a full and joyful life, enjoying simple pleasures. He had a deep love for
classic cars and spent countless
hours tinkering in his shop. He
enjoyed going to flea markets
and thrift and antique stores
looking for various odds and
ends. Often, he came home
with boxes of Tonka trucks
and other trinkets for his shop.
Rex was also an avid lover
of the outdoors whether he
was working on his property,
watching his great-grandchildren play, or simply observing
the trucks go by, he found joy
in the simplest of moments.
Above all, Rex cherished his
family. He was a devoted husband to Sharon, with whom
he shared 56 wonderful years
of marriage. He was a proud
father to Tamera Bowyer, Lori
Leathers, Penny Leecy, Kim
Stegman, and Chad Hiner, and
found immense joy in being
a grandfather to 10 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren. His warmth, humor, and
wisdom will be deeply missed
by them all.
Rex is also survived by his
siblings, Loretta Scott, Jack
Hiner, and Sam Hiner, as well
as numerous nieces, nephews,
cousins, and friends.
He was preceded in death by
his parents Lewis and Arlene
Hiner, his daughter Lori
Leathers, his granddaughter
Courtney Gilliland, and two
brothers, Bill and Bob Hiner.
Rexs life was a reflection
of hard work, unconditional
love, and a sense of humor that
touched everyone he met. His
legacy of generosity, devotion,
and laughter will live on in the
hearts of his family and friends
forever.
A celebration of Rexs life
will be held at 10:00 AM on
Friday, February 7, 2025, at
the Peacock Family Chapel in
Lamar, CO. The service will
be officiated by Ian Blacker,
with interment to follow
at Fairmount Cemetery.
Visitation will take place
from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM on
Thursday, February 6, 2025, at
the Peacock Family Chapel.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorial contributions be made to Bristol
Hospice in Frederick, CO, or to
the Lamar Christian Church,
either directly or through the
funeral home.
Services are under the direction of the Peacock Family
Funeral Home. For more information or to leave condolences,

One of the requests I make of
God is, Awaken your church.
That goes for me as well as
everyone else who fills the
pews of the local church but
more specifically the universal church. For too long the
church has been relegated to
the reservation. As long as we
keep our thoughts, motives and
opinions in house we exist fairly well. The problem with this
is what are we accomplishing?
Is this fulfilling Gods mandate
as specified in Matthew 28
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations. That is
a rhetorical question with the
obvious answer, not enough.
We ask why? We face the
same problems the early New
Testament church faced. The
church today, more so in some
countries than others, faces
persecution. In some places
this has gotten so bad that
the vision on both sides has
become blurred with the result,
a deep seeded hate. In the modern church today the biggest
threat we face is apathy, which
is just as damaging as persecution. Persecution results in
people fighting back. Apathy
generates no action good or
bad. Church has become something that we work into our
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
schedule. The church mistakenly has allowed a certain entitlement to creep in. An attitude of I have received Jesus
as my Savior and been baptized so I am going to heaven.
According to scripture that is
correct, these are two of the
requirements. However, that
is not what Jesus final words
to his apostles in Matthew 28
were. Jesus was about doing
the Fathers work. In John 4:
34 Jesus tells the apostles, My
food, said Jesus, is to do the
will of him who sent me and
to finish his work. Jesus has
ascended to heaven so we are
left to finish Gods work. When
we face God after we pass from
this world will we have done
Gods will or our own?

– February 2 sermon
Elka Billings led worship
accompanied by Mike, Petra
and Isla Billings. Ben Prasko
was on keyboard. The songs
were "Great Are You Lord,"
"O Taste and See" and "Holy
Forever."
Bruce Symes read Psalm 22
for communion meditation.
Written by King David about
a thousand years before Christ
came, the verses in Psalm 22
were fulfilled by the Lord. His
garments were divided, He was
mocked and ridiculed. But
when He said "It is finished"
our sins were paid for.
Pastor Chase Riebel gave
the sermon titled "Ezekiel's
Object Lesson/ WarningTake Shelter!" from Ezekiel 4.
Ezekiel was warning the people
that because of their disobedience there would be a seige
on Jerusalem. Revelation 21
warns us that all who are evil
will be thrown in the lake of
fire. But Romans 1 tells us that
we can escape the wrath of God
if we are covered by Jesus.
Jesus is our shelter.

OPINION
While Kansas dawdles, Tennessee goes
the extra mile to pass school choice
As another state prioritizes students over
systems, Kansas continues to simply debate giving parents the option to send their children to
the school of their choice.
In January, Tennessee became the latest
state to pass a robust school choice bill.
The bill has now gone to the desk of Tennessee
Gov. Bill Lee, a Republican, who has promised
to sign it.
Kansas Sen. Renee Erickson (R-Newton), the
assistant senate majority leader, said Tennessee
is doing what the Sunflower State is not.
As other states
prioritize students
over systems, Kansas
students will continue
to fall behind and be
at a competitive disadvantage if we dont
give parents the educational freedom they
want and deserve,
Erickson said.
According to the
Tennessean,
the
roughly $447 million
Tennessee
voucher program the
Education Freedom
Scholarship program
will offer 20,000
scholarships of about
$7,300 to Tennessee
students, including
both those enrolled
in public school and
those already attending a private institution anywhere in the state. Initially, half the
slots would include income requirements.
That $447 million is about 3.5 times the $125
million the Kansas Legislature is currently
debating for its tax credit program.
Senate Bill 75 would provide a tax credit of
$8,000 per child enrolled in an accredited private
school or $4,000 per child enrolled in a non-accredited private school, including homeschooling.
Proponents say that students whose parents
cannot afford private tuition would benefit tremendously. Nearly half of low-income students
in Kansas are below grade level in reading
and math, and the education system refuses to
spend more than $500 million in At Risk fund-
Only 12% of
low-income 8th
graders are
proficient in math,
and just 15% of
low-income 4th
graders read
proficiently.
COMMENTARY
PATRICK RICHARDSON, THE SENTINEL
ing to help students who are at risk of failing as
required by state law.
While legislators debate allowing parents
to make decisions for their own children, test
scores in Kansas continue to slip.
The most recent scores in the National
Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP),
acknowledged by the Kansas Department of
Education as the gold standard of assessments, show that Kansas students once again
perform below the national average in reading
and math.
The recently released 2024 results show the
states best ranking is #29 in math for 4th graders who are not low-income. All other rankings
are in the 30s and 40s, with the worst being No.
44 in 8th-grade reading for students who are not
economically disadvantaged, at just 31% proficient.
Only 12% of low-income 8th graders are proficient in math, and just 15% of low-income
4th graders read proficiently. The 2024 NAEP
also shows that 40% of Kansas 4th-graders and
34% of 8th-graders are Below Basic in Reading.
Those are both dramatically worse than in 2015
when KSDE and the State Board of Education
began de-emphasizing academic improvement
with the Kansans Can program and an accreditation system that measures social-emotional
learning and other factors but none that tracks
academic improvement.
Tennessee just demonstrated that Kansas
does not have the luxury of holding the ball while
other states score touchdowns, Masterson said.
By focusing on whats best for students, we will
have both great public schools and give parents
more choices to provide a great education for
their kids.###

Garnett 2030, power issues will be worse. Water
plant will have failed and water will be undrinkable. Sewer system will be broken. Roads will
have more holes. Rec center will close due to
lack of repairs. But we will have a new swimming pool that can be used 3 months a year and
buildings for the farmers market.
Im trying to figure why there is no full game
girls basketball report. The season is past half
over. Volleyball was pretty much the same.
The boys are in there when they blow some
other teams out. Crest and Central Heights are
in the paper. Someone in the Garnett school
needs to step up. The old saying there is no
shame in losing as long as you do your best,
which Im sure the girls are!
Why am I paying for the county fire white
truck to go to the hospital for work? I think its
a dodge. I know he works for the ambulance.
Why am I paying for his gas and wear and tear
to drive home to another county? Then he will
drive it to work for (indecipherable). Also, I
am sure I am not the only one who thinks this.
The people managing this Facebook page for
the sheriffs office need to give it up. They post
some awful stuff. Its not cute. Its not funny
and its not professional. Maybe they should
get a life. Its cringeworthy and embarassing.
Im really getting tired of this so-called president of ours blaming Democrats for everyting
to hurricanes to no water in California, now
for people who lost their lives in a plane crash.
He doesnt know what hes talking about and
doesnt need to be talking about it period. Hes
going to regret it someday. Hes going to Hades.
Presidential order declaring two sexes: Sanity returns to USA President Donald Trump
In Donald Trumps flurry of day one executive
orders, many were important and necessary, but
one was particularly unique and decisive: The
document declaring presidential recognition of
only two sexes, male and female.
It shouldnt need to be said, the reality of biology being what it is. But the last four years have
been a fantasy world in which people believed
they could actually change their birth gender
and the rest of us were tasked with pretending
this was so. Or else.
The order, formally titled Defending Women
from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring
Biological Truth to the Federal Government,
covers a lot of ground in beating back the gender
nonsense that has so gripped our country, this
sums it up best: Efforts to eradicate the biological reality of sex fundamentally attack women
by depriving them of their dignity, safety, and
well-being.
Both men and women are hurt by the slide
into dysfunction that comes from the pretense
that changing ones biological sex is possible,
but women are hardest hit. The matter goes far
beyond what box to mark on a federal form.
One section of the order, on Privacy in
Intimate Spaces, confirms that males should
not be housed in female prisons. Just last
January, a man being held at Rose M. Singer
womens jail in New Yorks Rikers Island went
on to rape a female inmate. It wasnt even the
first time this happened at Rikers; a similar
attack occurred there in 2022, and there have
been numerous such incidents throughout the

country.
AG Skrmetti optimistic in SCOTUS gender
case after another state reverses policies on
radical gender ideologyVideo
This week The New York Times casually
dropped a mind-boggling statistic in an article
about Trumps order: 15% of women in prison
are transgender. In other words, 15% of prisoners in womens prisons are biological males.
Thats lunacy. How many of them even really
think theyre trans? Or how many are just men
who would prefer to be housed with women?
And it isnt just prisons. All womens spaces
have been opened to men who call themselves
women. Nine women at a womens homeless
shelter in California complained about sexual
harassment from a transgender individual who
was permitted to live at the shelter with them.
And in a famous story out of Loudon County,
Va., a girl was raped at school by a boy in a dress
who was allowed to use the girls bathroom.
The new order forbids this in any facility that
receives federal funding.
The order also discusses Title IX of the
Educational Amendments Act, which gave
female athletes equal opportunities to play
sports at educational institutions that receive
federal tax dollars.
But amid the gender madness of the last few
years, biological boys are participating in girls
sports and causing them catastrophic physical harm.
Payton McNabb of North Carolina was a high
school volleyball player when a transgender
player on an opposing team spiked a ball at her
head so hard that she was left with traumatic
brain injury.
The fact that boys and girls are biologically
different is why girls sports existed in the first
place. McNabbs is one of many serious injuries
that occurred when the country was forced to
pretend this wasnt so.
And the words on forms do matter, too. In
the last few years, the federal government kept
inching toward insanity with trans-focused
guidelines that pushed women out of existence
altogether.

Trump will not hesitate to use the power of the Presidency 12 Dist. Sen. Caryn Tyson
Judging from the first week or so, the Trump
doctrine is going to be: We can do it the easy way
or the hard way.
Those are the words the president used in a
post on Truth Social last week threatening tariffs on Russia if it didnt cut a peace deal with
Ukraine.
Trump is a president who understands and
has no hesitation in using, the leverage the U.S.
has abroad as the worlds preeminent economic
and military power, and the leverage he has at
home as a newly elected president with a mandate and the strong backing of a fervent political
movement.
Hes going to talk loudly and swing whatever
stick he has at hand.
His brief diplomatic tussle with the president
of Colombia was instructive. It started with an
exchange of words, and ended with Trump putting his counterpart in what in the WWE they
call a Scorpion Death Lock.
President Gustavo Petro didnt want to accept
U.S. flights returning Colombian nationals who
had come here illegally. Trump threatened punishing tariffs on Colombian goods, to which
Petro responded with his own threat before realizing that hed be deploying a peashooter against
a mechanized infantry division.
Colombia sends a quarter of its exports to the
United States, so Trumps threat of 25% tariffs
escalating to 50% within a week was an intolerable risk.
This is likely to be a model for Trump getting
other countries to accept our deportation flights,
and getting Latin American nations to restore
the immigration arrangements that worked so
well at the end of Trumps first term.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
Everyone knows the United States is the most
powerful nation on Earth. Whereas the conventional thinking has been that this overwhelming
might imposes on us an obligation to treat allies
with a certain respect, Trumps belief is that
it lends us a crushing disparity in negotiating
power that we should use to our advantage.
Traditionally in diplomacy, theres a tendency to want to let the other side save face;
Trumps reflex, apparent in the Colombia episode, is to embarrass the other side to create a
cautionary example.
Trump is practicing realpolitik if Otto von
Bismarck had an active social-media account
and the flair of a former reality TV star.
His hope is clearly that enforcing a small
red line at the beginning will make it easier to
enforce bigger red lines later on.
We hear a lot in international affairs of deterrence, or making a threat to keep foreign actors
from doing something you oppose. Trump is
now practicing compellence, or making a threat
to coerce foreign actors into doing things we
want.
That Trump is a strong believer in tariffs
gives him a tool in pursuit of this approach not
available to free-trade-oriented presidents.
At home, Trump has always been willing to
target dissenters within his party more harshly
and personally than any of his predecessors. His
record of ending political careers ensures that
those Republicans who dont genuinely love him
have to fear him, increasing his political power.
In his second term, he also seems determined
to use every lever at his disposal to advance his
agenda, including things he might have been
talked out of, or not considered, the first time
around. If there is an authority hiding somewhere in the federal code that might be of use,
his team is surely ferreting it out.
All this adds up to a forceful presidency
abroad and at home, bumptious and assertive
in a way we havent seen perhaps since Teddy
Roosevelt.
This is not to suggest that Trump has found
the magic key to guaranteed success. Bogota is
obviously easier to manhandle into submission
than, say, Moscow, while presidencies always
look best in the first couple of weeks before
unanticipated events take a hand.
Whatever happens, though, its almost certain that Trump is going to squeeze every ounce
of power and influence out of his presidency.

What does an egg candler do?
Last week I wrote about
eggs, for this weeks column I
would like to share my experience as an egg candler.
On day one I soon learned
what bench candling was all
about. My tools were a wooden bench, lighted funnel and a
little scale. Before I could ever
begin candling, I had to learn
to pick up six eggs at a time and
roll them around in my hands
by using my thumbs. Then I
rolled the eggs, always with the
large end of up in front of the lit
light behind the funnel.
My other tool was the little scale, as eggs are actually
graded by weight not size. You
ask what can you see when you
hold an egg up to a light? Well
you probably wont believe this
but the first thing I checked
was the air cell at the large end
of the egg. How large it was,
was it loose and did it have
a blood ring around it. The
other things I checked for were
cracks in the shell and blood
clots or other foreign matter
floating around in the egg. And
would you believe me if I told
you I even found a baby chick
inside? Another thing was, oh
those rotten eggs and I mean
rotten.
After about three months,
an automatic egg candling
machine was installed. I still

had to rotate the eggs before
a small strong light and then
place them on a track. Along
this track there were small
scales, as the egg went down
the track, its weight would
automatically trip the scales
and it would go down its own
chute to the cleaning bin. At
the cleaning bin we personally
checked the outside of the shell
again. If we found stains etc. on
them, we lightly brushed them
with a very fine grit sandpaper before putting them in our
shipping crates.
When this was all completed, we placed them in a large
cooler until we delivered them
by truck to Kansas City.
I hope Ive enlightened you
on what egg candling is all
about.

en who want to breastfeed. In
plain English, thats a set of
instructions for biological men
who want to produce something resembling breastmilk
out of their nipples to feed to a
baby.
A section of the Biden
administrations 2022 fiscal
year budget that ironically
focused on maternal mortality
substituted birthing person
for mother and defended the change by saying, We
think our language needs to be
more inclusive.
Well, the rest of us think
our language needs to be more
rooted in reality and not in pretend-land, where anyone other
than a mother could possibly
be at risk for maternal mortality.
Its this exact return to normalcy that makes Trumps
executive action such a hit. The
last decade has been abnormal.
What is a woman, anyway? No
one, not even a Supreme Court
justice, seemed to be sure.
The headlines about the new
executive order were predictably hysterical. Rep. Sarah
McBride the first transgender member of Congress
says Trumps executive order
cant erase the LGBTQ community, MSNBCs website
declared.
Thats correct. The executive order does not in any way
erase anyone. What it does
is return sanity to the conversation. There are men. There
are women. There is no third
option. Deal with it.

Emporia State to show off its unique Engraving Arts program
EMPORIA Emporia States engraving
arts program will be on display – as well
as its new instructor – during a reception on Friday, Feb. 7. Emporia State
offers the only bachelors program in
engraving in the world.
Both instructor Lee Griffiths and
the program also have a new point of
prestige – Griffiths recently was named
Grand Master Engraver by Glendo LLC,
an Emporia company that designs, manufactures and sells engraving equipment.
Griffiths began his engraving path
while operating the family farm fulltime in Idaho. In the late 1990s, neighbors and fellow farmers asked him to
embellish some knives they were making. Griffiths passion for engraving
arts took root.
Unable to afford professional-quality equipment, Griffiths early projects
came from tools he improvised from
items in his barn. By 2001, Griffiths had
purchased some Glendo equipment and
began teaching workshops in the companys training center.
Lee started at a time when there
wasnt much information about hand
engraving and there was no internet to
feed his hunger for learning, explained
Chris Correll, president of Glendo LLC.
With many challenges in front of him,
his passion for the art led him to continue to work and achieve.
In 2007, the family farm sold, and
Griffiths became a full-time engraver. He has been named Firearms
Engravers Guild of America (FEGA)
Master Engraver, in 2001, and Colt
Master Engraver. In 2024, he learned
through Glendo about the position at
Emporia State University.
I was unaware of the need for an
engraving arts instructor at ESU,
Griffiths said. They contacted me and
after some discussion I accepted the
challenge.
Over the years Lee has become a
world-renowned engraver and teacher, Glendos Correll said. His love of
people and willingness to share makes
him an incredible asset not only to the
industry, but to our local community
here in Emporia.
A reception to honor Griffiths and
showcase ESUs engraving arts program will be from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.
Friday, Feb. 7, in the first-floor commons area of King Hall on the ESU
campus. It is free and open to the public.
Guests will be able to tour the engraving studio, and the two King Hall art
galleries will be open. Feb. 7 is also the
First Friday Art Walk in Emporia, and
those at the reception are encouraged
to explore those activities downtown
after the event. Also available will be
discounted tickets to Tough, the next
production for ESU Theatre.
The Engraving Arts program
explores the conceptual as well as the
technical side of engraving. Students
learn to use GRS pneumatic engraving tools as well as push engraving
tools and will be introduced to different
methods of surface ornamentation as
well as learning to render forms with
line. This program welcomes all disciplines to combine techniques.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Thursday, February 6, 2025
2025 Anderson County
Soil Conservation
Celebrate the legacy and future of our soil resource.
Kansas Wheat teams up with K-State under new
grant to increase adoption of conservation practices
by Julia Debes for Kansas
Wheat
The echoes of the 1930s Dust
Bowl are most evident in the
commitment of each subsequent generation of Kansas
farmers to care for the land on
which their livelihoods depend.
A $1 million dollar grant from
the National Fish and Wildlife
Foundation (NFWF) recently
awarded to K-State and Kansas
Wheat provides dedicated
resources to aid these efforts by
helping farmers navigate Farm
Bill programs and implement
proven conservation practices
that best fit their winter wheat
acres.
This program is really
about conservation programs
and practices that include winter wheat as part of a sustainable crop rotation, said Aaron
Harries, Kansas Wheat vice
president of research and operations. This is an opportunity
that will benefit the farmer and
bring attention to the role of
winter wheat as a very important conservation tool in High
Plains cropping systems.
The NFWF grant will fund
a three-year project, kicking
off in 2025, that focuses first
on sharing information about
the benefits of conservation
practices. Led by Harries and
Romulo Lollato, K-State associate professor of wheat and
forage production, the project
aims to advance crop management priority strategies,
including reduced tillage,
increased adoption of cover
crops and diversified crop rotations and improved nutrient
management. These practices
have well-documented outcomes in helping improve soil
health, reduce erosion and conserve water and carbon.
Reflective of the private-public partnership integral to
the grant, the project also
includes working with certified crop advisors (CCAs) to
train them on how to advise
farmers on conservation
practices. Kansas Wheat and
K-State will also work with
the USDAs Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS)
in Kansas to help increase
Our most sincere thanks and
congratulations to the farmers and
producers in Anderson County
for your attention to the legacy of our land.
engagement with and enrollment in Farm Bill programs
like the Environmental Quality
Incentives Program (EQIP) and
the Conservation Stewardship
Program (CSP).
Equally as important, the
grant will provide additional capacity to help producers
enroll in these Farm Bill programs that provide financial
assistance for implementing
the practices. The grant provides for two full-time staff
members to help work one-onone with growers and CCAs
alike across Kansas. This outreach will complement K-State
Research and Extension work
by including targeted conservation discussions during
wheat-related producer field
days, pre-plant wheat meetings and other conferences and
meetings.
We intend to work with
groups like CCAs to set up
educational programs to train
these experts and help them
identify farmers that might
have the potential to enroll
acres, Harries said. Some
of those programs can seem
intimidating, so were going to
help work to make it as easy
as possible and work with producers on a case-by-case basis
to identify which conservation
practices fit best and to navigate the enrollment process.
The new project supplements the existing partnership
between K-State Research and
Extension and Kansas Wheat,
called Wheat Rx, which disseminates the latest research recommendations for high-yielding and high-quality winter
wheat to Kansas wheat farmers. The work will also be
housed at the Kansas Wheat
Innovation Center (KWIC) in
Manhattan, another tie back
to the commitment by Kansas
wheat producers to invest in
the future of their industry.
Keep up with the NFWF
grant work as the project kicks
off in 2025 and find additional resources at kswheat.com/
wheatrx.

Kansas to Apply for NRCS CSP ACT NOW
Forestland Assistance by April 18, 2025
SALINA – The U.S. Department
of Agriculture (USDA) is
encouraging farmers and
ranchers in Kansas to participate in the Conservation
Stewardship Program (CSP)
through a current Act Now
signup. Producers who operate forestland are encouraged to apply at their local
USDA Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS)
Service Center by Friday,
April 18, 2025.
CSP offers technical and
financial assistance to help
agricultural and forest producers take their conservation efforts to the next level.
The program is designed to
compensate agricultural and
forest producers who agree to
increase their level of conservation by adopting additional
conservation activities and
maintaining their baseline
level of conservation.
Act Now funding allows
applications to be processed
more quickly by evaluating applications in the order
received. Applications are preapproved based on fund availability if the ranking score
is at or above the threshold.
Applications received after the
deadline will be considered
for the next funding period if
funds are still available.
To learn more about NRCS
programs, producers can contact their local USDA Service
Center. Producers can also
apply for NRCS programs,
manage conservation plans
and contracts, and view and

Bulldogs revenge earlier loss to Humboldt
GARNETT On January 24,
the Anderson County Bulldogs
suffered a 57-53 defeat to the
hands of Humboldt in the War
on 54 tournament championship, but they were able to
quickly bounce back by defeating the same Humboldt team at
home on Tuesday, January 28,
57-53 in overtime.
The Bulldogs took advantage of the home court early
on jumping out to an early 10-5
lead following the game's opening quarter.
Humboldt would chip away
at the lead over the next two
quarters, cutting the deficit
down to just 2 at halftime with
a 15-12 advantage in the second
quarter to make the score 22-20
at the break.
It was Humboldt that would
have the upper-hand in the
third quarter as well, outscoring the Bulldogs 16-12 to take
a 36-34 lead heading into the
fourth.
Humboldt was clinging to a
3 point lead in the waning seconds. Following an inbounds
pass with 11 seconds left, the
Bulldogs Brayden Wheat found
himself open for a step back
three-pointer as he banked it in
with 7 seconds left to send the
game into overtime with the
teams knotted at 49.
Anderson County would
double up Humboldt in the
overtime period, 8-4, to pull out
the victory.
Wheat finished the night
with a game high 23 points.
Wheat added 4 rebounds and 4
assists.
Noah Porter stuffed the stat
sheet as he recorded 17 points,
pulled down 14 rebounds, had 8
steals, 4 blocks and 3 assists.
Aidan Steele and Jack Dykes
scored 6 points and pulled
down 4 and 6 rebounds respectively.
Brylan Sommer added 3
points and 4 steals and Dylan
Hoffman added 2 points on the
night.

field and connecting on just
50% (7-14) free throws, they

the run lately and after winning on Tuesday night over the
Central Heights Vikings, they

The Lancers were sluggish
early on and trailed the Vikings
11-7 following the game's open-
ing quarter, but Crest responded outscoring the Vikings 20-4
in the second to take a 27-15
lead into the halftime break.
Crest steadily added to their

final two quarters, outscoring

ongoing debate regarding the
reluctance of some cities and
communities, so-called sanctuary jurisdictions, to assist
federal authorities in those
arrests. Border security and
the deportation of illegal immigrants beginning with harder criminals the worst go
first policy as embraced by
ICE, was a major policy plank
of Trumps campaign that
brought him a return to the
presidency last November.
Porfirio Dela Cruz-Cantu
faces charges of battery, criminal restraint and mistreatment
of an elderly person stemming
from his alleged violent attack
against a 64 year-old Ottawa
woman who was bicycling on
the trail October 10 of last year.
The woman told police she
managed to escape the attack
by sliding down the trails
embankment and running to a
nearby home for help. She said
Cantu clotheslined her from
her bike as she passed him and
she believed was attempting
to sexually assault her, at one
point stuffing her mouth with
leaves and grass in an attempt
to stifle her screams for help.
Cruz-Cantu is currently
being held in the Anderson
County Jail in lieu of $150,000
bond. Court records showed an
interpreter had been secured
for Cruz-Cantus arraignment.
Officials estimate between
6 and 11 million illegal aliens
streamed across the U.S.
border with Mexico since
January 2021, when President
Joe Biden nullified former
President Trumps numerous
executive orders authorizing
U.S. Border Patrol and ICE for
increased interdiction efforts.
A Republican-led report
from the House Judiciary
Committee said 250 migrants
whose names are on the international terror watch list were
detained at the U.S. southern
border in the years 2021, 2022
and 2023, and 99 of those were
allowed to enter and settle in
the U.S.
Details about when De La
Cruz-Cantu entered the country and the circumstances of
his arrival have not come to
light so far, though his wife
told authorities they were
Mexican citizens and were in
the country illegally. The two

restaurant located on North
Maple Street.

given to food servers and
bartenders, hairdressers
and manicurists, musicians,
hotel housekeepers, and others during his 2024 presidential campaign as a means of
cutting the tax burden on
those in service industries
who typically dont earn a lot
of money overall. Waitresses,
for example, often earn a
lower hourly wage with the
expectation tips from customers will make up the difference. In addition, tracking
and accounting for tips for
state and federal taxes can
be a challenge for both the
worker and the employer.
Tips are harder to keep
track of than your kid wearing a Chiefs hat at the Super
Bowl, Tyson told the Kansas
Informer. No tax makes it not
only easier to track but helps
out those who need it.
Trump renewed his no tax
on tips pledge at a speech in
Nevada January 25, saying
any worker who relies on
tipped income, your tips will
be 100% yours.
The IRS required tips of
$20 or more per month to
be reported as income. Its
unclear how much tip money
was declared for taxes in
Kansas in recent years. A
federal jury in Kansas last
year awarded $957,324 in
back wages for 168 workers

Kansas
Corporations and taxpayers continue the stream of
income tax payments that
projections say will mass a
$3.5 billion revenue surplus
by the end of June, the ongoing product primarily of the
largest tax increase in state
history in 2015. Legislators
and the governor have spent
the past two years debating
different plans for tax relief

Toast found that even with
more retail counters putting out tip jars in heretofore unconventional places,
Americans still seem to be
tipping quite generously.
In Kansas, the company
recorded average tips 19.8%
across the spectrum using its
POS tools in 2023. Full service restaurants hit 20.4%.
But if it is at a quick-service
place, the tip average drops
to 16%.
Americans overall were
