THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A spotty but
intense storm system generated by dense humidity
on Saturday ended up cancelling a fireworks show and
veterans celebration planned
at Lake Garnett Park, and
dropped huge hail on some
parts of the county.
Hail ranging from pea to
baseball size was reported
south of Garnett in the Colony
and Welda areas, but the
storm ended up dropping very
little rain on the Garnett area.
Reports Monday from
Welda noted little widespread
damage from the hail storm,
but photos sent to the Review
by readers showed the size
and weight of some of the ice
balls.
Garnett officials announced
the postponement a little
before 2 p.m. Saturday on the
citys social media.
We have been advised
of severe weather moving
through this area this afternoon and into the evening that
would push the setup of the
community fireworks display
into the evening, the notice
read. The weather may cause
issues with the Celebration
of service and planned community Band concert. We feel
it best to postpone; possible
to Labor Day Weekend. Stay
turned.
The post said the program
for the Celebration of Service
will be posted online on the
citys website soon and printed copies will be available at
city hall.
Organizers had planned a
Sunday, July 12, rain date, but
later judged schedule conflicts
with fireworks shootng teams
and other participants would
make the rain date untenable.

him if that is what he wanted
as he does not at this time. All
you have to do is ask him. He
is interested in this position in
the next election in four and a
half years.
McClain told the Review he
was not seeking the position
this term but that he intended
to do so in the next election
cycle.
I must say that I am not
campaigning for a write-in. I
do not know where Ms. Gordon
got the idea, but I find it flattering. I have been approached
on multiple occasions about
running, but I have no intentions of running at this time.
However, I do have plans on
running in the 2024 election

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A particularly impacting outbreak of flu experienced by a local elementary school in 2019 has made some local
residents question if it might be evidence
that Covid-19 already made its rounds
through Anderson County. So far, however,
theres no definite evidence of that.
A staff member at St. Rose Elementary
School in Garnett said last week that period
saw an unusually large number of student
and staff absences at one point 38 students
out of just over 100 enrolled were out of
school during the height of the local flu
outbreak in February 2019.
That staffer also said one of the school
staff who had the flu during that period had
taken a Covid-19 antibodies test, and that
test had come back negative. An antibodies
test reveals whether someones immune
system has been exposed to a virus and
already built up resistance to it.
Though much evidence surrounding the
transmission and protection measures of
Covid-19 appears in dispute, one generally
accepted premise seems to be that older people and those with compromised immune
systems are most at risk, while younger
children appear to be infected far less often.
Influenzas spread through schools
and other close-quarters confined areas
like office buildings is well documented.
Experts have said Covid-19 transmits much
the same way as influenza.
Anderson County High School Principal
Matt Self said his school experienced no
out-of-the ordinary student or staff absences during that time period.
A report from the Southeast Kansas
Regional Health Department Monday
showed 15 recorded cases of Covid-19 in
Anderson County with four having recovered and zero fatalities.
A staffer with the lab services department at Ottawa Family Physicians told
the Review yesterday a Covid-19 antibodies
test at their facility had to be ordered by a
requesting patients physician, and the cost
is around $95.
County sets hearing to discuss $55,000 expenditure
for fire fighting equipment with help of USDA grant
Equipment would better
training of volunteers; grant
would cover 35% of cost
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT County commissioners will
host a public hearing July 27 to discuss
the countys $55,000 portion of a piece
of equipment designed to give county
firefighters live fire fighting experience
without actually setting fire to a building.
Anderson
County
Emergency
Management Directory J.D. Mersman
said the training prop was about the
size of a cargo container, and allowed
artificial fire to be ignited as firefighters
moved through simulated hallways and
over and around obstacles to simulate
real-life scenarios.
The public hearing will be held Monday,
July 27, at 11 a.m. at the Anderson County
Commission room in the county annex
building. A public notice on the meeting
is published elsewhere in todays Review.
Mersman said the grant from USDA
Rural Development will cover 35 percent
of the cost, or
some $29,750,
but the county would have
to pick up
the remaining $55,250.

SUPERNAW
Martha Mary (Miller) Pease
Supernaw was born on January
24, 1927 in Grand Island, NE to
John and Madeline (Griffin)
Miller. She
passed away
peacefully on

at St. Marys

Nebraska

the age of 93
years.
Supernaw
Martha
grew up in
Clarinda, IA graduating with
the class of 1944. After graduating from high school, Martha
became a farm wife and mother. She also enjoyed working as
a librarian, selling real estate,
and supporting Wayne in his
everyday endeavors.
Martha and Wayne enjoyed
traveling the United States in
their RV. They would often
winter in Texas, meeting several dear friends along the way.
Another passion of Marthas
was reading. She shared her
love of books with others
always offering to share her
favorites. Martha spent many
hours sitting on her patio or
at her kitchen table with a cup
of coffee surrounded by lovely
flowers and birds. She loved
life and people, especially
spending time with her family
and friends.
Martha was a beautiful lady,
as many would agree, inside
and out. She was a dedicated
wife and mother. She loved her
family unconditionally pray-
ing for them nightly.
Martha was preceded in
death by her parents, brothers;
Lee Miller, Frank Miller, sisters; Blanche (Miller) Swanson,
Rena (Miller) Wheeler, Lois
(Miller) Spunagle, Viola
(Miller) Woldruff, two infant
sons, and grandson Josh

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 14, 2020
OPINION
Its not enough to not be racist
Today, the nostrum goes, it is not enough
for Americans to be not racist. They must be
anti-racist.
This woke terminology has infused our lexicon. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., recently
declared from the well of the Senate: Being
race-conscious is not enough. It never was. We
must be anti-racists. What, pray tell, is the
difference between being against racism and
being anti-racist? Ibram X. Kendi, author of
How to Be An Antiracist, provides an answer:
Racism is no longer to be defined as the belief
that someone is inferior based on race. Instead,
racism is to be defined as the belief that any
group differences can be attributed to anything
other than racism. Thus, any system that ends
with different outcomes must be racist. Indeed,
Kendi contends, Racism itself is institutional,
structural, and systemic.
To be anti-racist means to tear down these
systems. Any obstacle in the pursuit of equality
of outcome must be torn down, assumed to be a
product of discrimination. Basic decency, then,
means that we must oppose even institutions
that have been considered hallmarks of freedom. Those institutions, after all, have exacerbated inequalities, or at least failed to rectify
those inequalities.
This means that Americas culture of rights
a culture that suggests an obligation on
the part of individuals to respect the rights
of others, even if they disagree must come
under fire. That culture reinforces hierarchies
and inequalities, after all. The classical liberal
says that rights fall equally on the just and the
unjust alike; the anti-racist suggests that rights
are merely tools of power. Anti-racism, in its
essence, is merely reworked neo-Marxism from
the 1960s: Herbert Marcuse would have been
ecstatic to see his concept of repressive tolerance intolerance against movements from
the Right and toleration of movements from the
Left revived under the banner of race rather
than class.
The self-proclaimed anti-racist left a
left that sees all of human relations reduced
to a rudimentary correlation of skin color and
inequality, an analysis we used to call racist
has decided that the culture must be cleansed of
all of those who will not be drafted into its woke
army. Its march through the institutions began
with college campuses, where cowardly administrators quickly caved to the bizarre notion
that campuses were unsafe, cruel bastions of
bigotry requiring speech codes and training in
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
BEN SHAPIRO, THE DAILY WIRE
microaggressions. Next, the woke army moved
on to the halls of institutional media, where
editors were forced to announce their own
white privileges along with their resignations,
turning over the instruments of informational
dissemination to radical racialists.
Now the woke army has targeted corporations. Corporations are, by nature, risk-averse;
they seek merely profit and lack of controversy.
The hard left has targeted them as the weakest
link in the chain of free speech: If corporations can be bullied into pulling their money
from social media networks, those social media
networks can be bullied into restricting their
free-speech cultures. Remove advertising bucks
from Instagram and watch as Instagram censors
those the woke want censored.
Indeed, such a campaign is now front and
center in the culture wars: Major corporations
from Coca-Cola to Target have stopped advertising on social media networks, citing the need
for more hate speech regulation on those
platforms. Obviously, those who target corporations will not be satisfied until all non-woke
speech is limited or banned; corporations will
be unpleasantly surprised when those they have
been seeking to appease turn on them as remnants of the evil system. But corporations have
neither the principle nor the will to deny the
demands of the loudest and the most militant.
The product of the woke crusade will not
be a less racist America but a more polarized
one. Thats because the woke crusade is not
truly about reducing racism; it is about attacking fundamental institutions, American history
and our very culture of rights. All the things
we share must be eviscerated. So we will share
nothing. And then the true ugliness begins.###

Dane, if you had used the cartoon against
Trump, everything would have been fine. And
now when the BLM finds out our civic leaders
are a bunch of snowflakes, they might come
and visit.
Id like to thank the county leaders for not
taking a knee for Governor Kellys request that
all people wear a mask in the state of Kansas.
And Id also like to thank Mr. Hicks for his
input and telling the truth about the masks. I
realize it upset some, but no one complained
when Hilliary accused Trump if he was elected,
sending all the Mexicans back to Mexico in box
cars. Thank you very much.
It is interesting that some of the same people
who are against voting by mail now thought it
was a great thing when voting whether or not
to change the city commission to five members.
It makes me wonder if something else went on
Trump at Rushmore: This is who we are
Following is an exerpted version of President
Trumps speech Friday, July 4, 2020, at the base
of Mt. Rushmore.
There could be no better place to celebrate
Americas independence than beneath this
magnificent, incredible, majestic mountain
and monument to the greatest Americans who
have ever lived.
Today, we pay tribute to the exceptional
lives and extraordinary legacies of George
Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham
Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt. I am here as
your President to proclaim before the country
and before the world: This monument will
never be desecrated these heroes will
never be defaced, their legacy will never, ever
be destroyed, their achievements will never
be forgotten, and Mount Rushmore will stand
forever as an eternal tribute to our forefathers
and to our freedom.
We gather tonight to herald the most important day in the history of nations: July 4th,
1776. At those words, every American heart
should swell with pride. Every American
family should cheer with delight. And every
American patriot should be filled with joy,
because each of you lives in the most magnificent country in the history of the world, and it
will soon be greater than ever before.
Our Founders launched not only a revolution in government, but a revolution in the
pursuit of justice, equality, liberty, and prosperity. No nation has done more to advance
the human condition than the United States
GUEST EDITORIAL
DONALD TRUMP, U.S. PRESIDENT
of America. And no people have done more to
promote human progress than the citizens of
our great nation.
It was all made possible by the courage
of 56 patriots who gathered in Philadelphia
244 years ago and signed the Declaration of
Independence. They enshrined a divine truth
that changed the world forever when they
said: all men are created equal.
These immortal words set in motion the
unstoppable march of freedom. Our Founders
boldly declared that we are all endowed with
the same divine rights given [to] us by our
Creator in Heaven. And that which God has
given us, we will allow no one, ever, to take
away ever.
Seventeen seventy-six represented the culmination of thousands of years of western
civilization and the triumph not only of spirit,
but of wisdom, philosophy, and reason.
And yet, as we meet here tonight, there is a
growing danger that threatens every blessing
our ancestors fought so hard for, struggled,
they bled to secure.
Our nation is witnessing a merciless campaign to wipe out our history, defame our
heroes, erase our values, and indoctrinate our
children.
Angry mobs are trying to tear down statues of our Founders, deface our most sacred
memorials, and unleash a wave of violent
crime in our cities. Many of these people
have no idea why they are doing this, but
some know exactly what they are doing. They
think the American people are weak and soft
and submissive. But no, the American people
are strong and proud, and they will not allow
our country, and all of its values, history, and
culture, to be taken from them.
One of their political weapons is Cancel
Culture driving people from their jobs,
shaming dissenters, and demanding total submission from anyone who disagrees. This is
the very definition of totalitarianism, and it is
completely alien to our culture and our values,
and it has absolutely no place in the United
States of America. This attack on our liberty, our magnificent liberty, must be stopped,
and it will be stopped very quickly. We will
expose this dangerous movement, protect our
nations children, end this radical assault, and
preserve our beloved American way of life.
In our schools, our newsrooms, even our
corporate boardrooms, there is a new farSEE TRUMP ON PAGE 5A
Trump finds triumph at Mount Rushmore
If nothing else, President Donald Trumps
July Fourth speech at Mount Rushmore clarified the battle lines of our culture war.
The New York Times called the speech
dark and divisive, while an Associated
Press headline declared, Trump pushes racial
division. A Washington Post story said the
speech crystallized the presidents unyielding push to preserve Confederate symbols and
the legacy of white domination.
Democratic Sen. Tammy Duckworth insisted that Trump spent all his time talking
about dead traitors.
To be clear — and despite all of this — the
media and the left didnt freak out about a
speech extolling the valor of Robert E. Lee or
the statesmanship of Jefferson Davis. They
didnt scorn a speech pining for Antebellum
America or expressing ambiguity about the
Civil War. They didnt pan a speech that
slighted the quest for justice and civil rights
throughout American history.
As a matter of fact, Trump didnt mention
any Confederates at all. He hailed Abraham
Lincoln at length and called the Civil War
the struggle that saved our union and extinguished the evil of slavery. He said we must
defend the ideas that were the foundation of
the righteous movement for civil rights.
Itd be difficult to get a more textbook
expression of the American civic religion than
the speech at Rushmore. Itd be difficult to
get a more wide-ranging appreciation of the
warriors, inventors, adventurers, reformers,
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
entertainers and athletes that have made the
country what it is. Itd be difficult to get a more
affirming account of the greatness of America
and its meaning to the world.
And, yet, the speech was tested and found
wanting.
Trumps attacks on what he called a
new far-left fascism and a cultural revolution designed to overthrow the American
Revolution were indeed hard-edged, but who
can doubt the basic truth of the claims?
Theres a fear afoot in the land, as a merciless authoritarian spirit informs a spate
of firings and cancellations. The day before
Trumps speech, a Boeing executive resigned
over something he had written … in 1987.
The setting for Trumps speech is itself now
deemed problematic. A CNN report previewing the event said Trump will be at Mount
Rushmore, where hell be standing in front of
a monument of two slave owners and on land
wrestled away from Native Americans.
Theres no doubt that Trump is a deeply
flawed messenger. But it wasnt just Trump
the messenger who was attacked in the aftermath of the Mount Rushmore speech; it was
the message.
Patriotic sentiments of the sort that have
adorned American oratory for centuries were
deemed hateful and divisive. A celebration of
the Founders that once would have been the
stuff of schoolbooks and primers was considered controversial. A defense of the nations
ideals was waved away. No, nothing to see
here — only hate and division.
Surely, if some other Republican president
had given the Mount Rushmore speech the
pushback wouldnt have been as intense. But
this isnt just about Trump. It goes much deeper.
Critics of the speech objected to what they
said was its wildly exaggerated account of the
stakes in the culture war — and at the same
time, vindicated that account by equating
patriotism with white supremacy.
Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.
in that election that we arent supposed to know
about.
I am also standing up for Kansas and the USA.
I am standing up for our freedoms also. Most
people that know now our freedoms are being
slowly taken away from us do not speak out,
because they dont want what happened to Mr.
Hicks. If anyone speaks up and says anything
the leftist progressive mob doesnt agree with
they do everything they can to make you pay
for it. If that same cartoon that Mr. Hicks had
would have had President Trump with a mask
on, all of the mob would have cheered for Mr.
Hicks. Thats the double standard. The only
reason the mob didnt like it is because it was on
Kelly. Very doubtful all those Facebook people
really cared what happened to the Jewish people during the Holocaust. Those of us who love
our coutnry need to stand up to this leftist political mob. Like all bullies, they will back down.
COMMENTARY
FRITZIE FRITZSHALL, AUSCHWIZ SURVIVOR
Hurtful protests
Even as states cautiously reopen, demonstrators continue to resist the government and their
elected role to protect the community. These
protestors often compare government action to
the actions of the reprehensible Nazi regime.
During these rallies, the regimes symbols often
appear on signs inappropriately equating government caution designed to safeguard, with
government policy that condoned murder.
The use of the swastika or other Nazi imagery in any context conjures up images of the
slaughter of six million Jews and millions of
other groups targeted by the evil Nazi regime,
their perpetrators, and collaborators.
I was there during the Holocaust and I saw
my family murdered before my very eyes.
I walked through the gates of hell that was
Auschwitz under that notorious hunk of twisted metal that read Arbeit Macht Frei Work
Sets You Free.
To see that sign again 75 years later used by
protesters of our government sent shivers down
my spine.
Its ok to protest. Thats the beauty of our
democracy. Reasonable people can disagree on
public policy, but comparing Kansas Governor
Laura Kelly, Illinois Governor Pritzker,
Chicago Mayor Lightfoot or other leaders concern for our health and well-being to the murderous Nazi regime is ignorant and offensive.
At Illinois Holocaust Museum, we turn displays of bigotry and ignorance into important

TRUMP…
FROM PAGE 4A
left fascism that demands
absolute allegiance. If you
do not speak its language,
perform its rituals, recite its
mantras, and follow its commandments, then you will be
censored, banished, blacklisted, persecuted, and punished.
Its not going to happen to us.
Make no mistake: this leftwing cultural revolution is
designed to overthrow the
American Revolution. In so
doing, they would destroy the
very civilization that rescued
billions from poverty, disease, violence, and hunger,
and that lifted humanity to
new heights of achievement,
discovery, and progress.
To make this possible, they
are determined to tear down
every statue, symbol, and
memory of our national heritage.
That is why I am deploying federal law enforcement
to protect our monuments,
arrest the rioters, and prosecute offenders to the fullest
extent of the law.
I am pleased to report that
yesterday, federal agents
arrested the suspected ringleader of the attack on the
statue of Andrew Jackson
in Washington, D.C. – and,
in addition, hundreds more
have been arrested.
Under
the
executive
order I signed last week
pertaining to the Veterans
Memorial Preservation and
Recognition Act and other
laws people who damage or
deface federal statues or monuments will get a minimum
of 10 years in prison.
And
obviously, that includes our
beautiful Mount Rushmore.
Our people have a great
memory. They will never forget the destruction of statues
and monuments to George
Washington,
Abraham
Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant,
abolitionists, and many others.
The violent mayhem we
have seen in the streets of
cities that are run by liberal Democrats, in every case,
is the predictable result of
years of extreme indoctrination and bias in education,
journalism, and other cultural institutions.
Against every law of society and nature, our children
are taught in school to hate
their own country, and to
believe that the men and
women who built it were not
heroes, but that they were
villains. The radical view of
American history is a web
of lies all perspective is
removed, every virtue is
obscured, every motive is
twisted, every fact is distorted, and every flaw is magnified until the history is
purged and the record is disfigured beyond all recognition.
This movement is openly attacking the legacies
of every person on Mount
Rushmore. They defile the
memory of Washington,
Jefferson, Lincoln, and
Roosevelt. Today, we will set
history and historys record
straight.
Before these figures were
immortalized in stone, they
were American giants in
full flesh and blood, gallant
men whose intrepid deeds
unleashed the greatest leap
of human advancement
the world has ever known.
Tonight, I will tell you and,
most importantly, the youth
of our nation, the true stories
of these great, great men.
From head to toe, George
Washington represented the
strength, grace, and dignity of the American people.
From a small volunteer force
of citizen farmers, he created
the Continental Army out of
nothing and rallied them to
stand against the most powerful military on Earth.
Through eight long years,
through the brutal winter at
Valley Forge, through setback
after setback on the field of
battle, he led those patriots to
ultimate triumph. When the
Army had dwindled to a few
thousand men at Christmas
of 1776, when defeat seemed
absolutely certain, he took
what remained of his forces
on a daring nighttime crossing of the Delaware River.
They marched through
nine miles of frigid darkness, many without boots on
their feet, leaving a trail of
blood in the snow. In the
morning, they seized victory at Trenton. After forcing the surrender of the
most powerful empire on the
planet at Yorktown, General
Washington did not claim
power, but simply returned
to Mount Vernon as a private
citizen.
When
called
upon
again, he presided over the
Constitutional Convention in
Philadelphia, and was unanimously elected our first
President. When he stepped
down after two terms, his former adversary King George
called him the greatest man
of the age. He remains first
in our hearts to this day. For
as long as Americans love
this land, we will honor and
cherish the father of our
country, George Washington.
He will never be removed,
abolished, and most of all, he
will never be forgotten.
Thomas Jefferson the
great Thomas Jefferson was
33 years old when he traveled
north to Pennsylvania and
brilliantly authored one of the
greatest treasures of human
history, the Declaration of
Independence. He also drafted Virginias constitution,
and conceived and wrote the
Virginia Statute for Religious
Freedom, a model for our
cherished First Amendment.
After serving as the first
Secretary of State, and then
Vice President, he was elected to the Presidency. He
ordered American warriors
to crush the Barbary pirates,
he doubled the size of our
nation with the Louisiana
Purchase, and he sent the
famous explorers Lewis and
Clark into the west on a daring expedition to the Pacific
Ocean.
He was an architect, an
inventor, a diplomat, a scholar, the founder of one of the
worlds great universities,
and an ardent defender of
liberty. Americans will forever admire the author of
American freedom, Thomas
Jefferson. And he, too, will
never, ever be abandoned by
us.
Abraham Lincoln, the savior of our union, was a selftaught country lawyer who
grew up in a log cabin on the
American frontier.
The first Republican
President, he rose to high
office from obscurity, based
on a force and clarity of his
anti-slavery
convictions.
Very, very strong convictions.
5A
LOCAL
He signed the law that
built the Transcontinental
Railroad; he signed the
Homestead Act, given to some
incredible scholars as simply defined, ordinary citizens
free land to settle anywhere
in the American West; and he
led the country through the
darkest hours of American
history, giving every ounce
of strength that he had to
ensure that government of
the people, by the people, and
for the people did not perish
from this Earth.
He served as Commanderin-Chief of the U.S. Armed
Forces during our bloodiest
war, the struggle that saved
our union and extinguished
the evil of slavery. Over
600,000 died in that war; more
than 20,000 were killed or
wounded in a single day at
Antietam. At Gettysburg, 157
years ago, the Union bravely
withstood an assault of nearly 15,000 men and threw back
Picketts charge.
Lincoln won the Civil War;
he issued the Emancipation
Proclamation; he led the passage of the 13th Amendment,
abolishing slavery for all
time and ultimately, his
determination to preserve
our nation and our union
cost him his life. For as long
as we live, Americans will
uphold and revere the immortal memory of President
Abraham Lincoln.
Theodore Roosevelt exemplified the unbridled confidence of our national culture
and identity. He saw the towering grandeur of Americas
mission in the world and he
pursued it with overwhelming energy and zeal.
As a Lieutenant Colonel
during the Spanish-American
War, he led the famous
Rough Riders to defeat the
enemy at San Juan Hill. He
cleaned up corruption as
Police Commissioner of New
York City, then served as the
Governor of New York, Vice
President, and at 42 years
old, became the youngest-ever President of the United
States.
He sent our great new
naval fleet around the globe to
announce Americas arrival
as a world power. He gave us
many of our national parks,
including the Grand Canyon;
he oversaw the construction
of the awe-inspiring Panama
Canal; and he is the only
person ever awarded both
the Nobel Peace Prize and
the Congressional Medal of
Honor. He was American
freedom personified in full.
The American people will
never relinquish the bold,
beautiful, and untamed spirit
of Theodore Roosevelt.
No movement that seeks
to dismantle these treasured
American legacies can possibly have a love of America
at its heart. Cant have it.
No person who remains
quiet at the destruction of
this resplendent heritage can
possibly lead us to a better
future.
The
radical
ideology attacking our country
advances under the banner
of social justice. But in truth,
it would demolish both justice and society. It would
transform justice into an
instrument of division and
vengeance, and it would turn
our free and inclusive society into a place of repression,
domination, and exclusion.
They want to silence us,
but we will not be silenced.
We will state the truth in
full, without apology: We
declare that the United States
of America is the most just
and exceptional nation ever
to exist on Earth.
We are proud of the fact
that our country was founded
on Judeo-Christian principles, and we understand
that these values have dramatically advanced the cause
of peace and justice throughout the world.
We
know
that
the
American family is the bedrock of American life.
We recognize the solemn
right and moral duty of every
nation to secure its borders.
And we are building the wall.
We remember that governments exist to protect
the safety and happiness of
their own people. A nation
must care for its own citizens
first. We must take care of
America first. Its time.
We believe in equal opportunity, equal justice, and
equal treatment for citizens
of every race, background,
religion, and creed. Every
child, of every color born
and unborn is made in the
holy image of God.
We want free and open
debate, not speech codes and
cancel culture.
We embrace tolerance, not
prejudice.
We support the courageous men and women of law
enforcement. We will never
abolish our police or our
great Second Amendment,
which gives us the right to
keep and bear arms.
We believe that our children should be taught to love
their country, honor our history, and respect our great
American flag.
We stand tall, we stand
proud, and we only kneel to
Almighty God.
This is who we are. This
is what we believe. And
these are the values that will
guide us as we strive to build
an even better and greater
future.
Those who seek to erase
our heritage want Americans
to forget our pride and our
great dignity, so that we can
no longer understand ourselves or Americas destiny. In toppling the heroes of
1776, they seek to dissolve the
bonds of love and loyalty that
we feel for our country, and
that we feel for each other.
Their goal is not a better
America, their goal is the end
of America.
In its place, they want
power for themselves. But
just as patriots did in centuries past, the American people will stand in their way
and we will win, and win
quickly and with great dignity.
We will never let them rip
Americas heroes from our
monuments, or from our
hearts. By tearing down
Washington and Jefferson,
these radicals would tear
down the very heritage for
which men gave their lives
to win the Civil War; they
would erase the memory that
inspired those soldiers to go
to their deaths, singing these
words of the Battle Hymn of
the Republic: As He died to
make men Holy, let us die to
make men free, while God is
marching on.
They would tear down
the principles that propelled
the abolition of slavery in
America and, ultimately,
around the world, ending
an evil institution that had
plagued humanity for thou-
sands and thousands of years.
Our opponents would tear
apart the very documents
that Martin Luther King used
to express his dream, and the
ideas that were the foundation of the righteous movement for Civil Rights. They
would tear down the beliefs,
culture, and identity that
have made America the most
vibrant and tolerant society
in the history of the Earth.
My fellow Americans, it is
time to speak up loudly and
strongly and powerfully and
defend the integrity of our
country.
It is time for our politicians to summon the bravery and determination of our
American ancestors. It is
time. It is time to plant our
flag and protect the greatest
of this nation, for citizens of
every race, in every city, and
every part of this glorious
land.
For the sake of our
honor, for the sake of our
children, for the sake of our
union, we must protect and
preserve our history, our heritage, and our great heroes.
Here
tonight,
before
the eyes of our forefathers,
Americans declare again, as
we did 244 years ago: that we
will not be tyrannized, we
will not be demeaned, and
we will not be intimidated by
bad, evil people. It will not
happen.
We will proclaim the ideals of the Declaration of
Independence, and we will
never surrender the spirit and the courage and the
cause of July 4th, 1776.
Upon this ground, we
will stand firm and unwavering. In the face of lies
meant to divide us, demoralize us, and diminish us, we
will show that the story of
America unites us, inspires
us, includes us all, and makes
everyone free.
We must demand that our
children are taught once
again to see America as did
Reverend Martin Luther
King, when he said that
the Founders had signed a
promissory note to every
future generation. Dr. King
saw that the mission of justice required us to fully
embrace our founding ideals.
Those ideals are so important
to us the founding ideals.
He called on his fellow citizens not to rip down their
heritage, but to live up to
their heritage.
Above all, our children,
from every community, must
be taught that to be American
is to inherit the spirit of the
most adventurous and confident people ever to walk the
face of the Earth.
Americans are the people
who pursued our Manifest
Destiny across the ocean,
into the uncharted wilderness, over the tallest mountains, and then into the skies
and even into the stars.
We are the country of
Andrew Jackson, Ulysses
S. Grant, and Frederick
Douglass. We are the land of
Wild Bill Hickock and Buffalo
Bill Cody. We are the nation
that gave rise to the Wright
Brothers, the Tuskegee
Airmen
Harriet
Tubman, Clara Barton, Jesse
Owens, George Patton
General George Patton the
great Louie Armstrong, Alan
Shepard, Elvis Presley, and
Mohammad Ali. And only
America could have produced
them all. No other place.
We are the culture that
put up the Hoover Dam,
laid down the highways,
and sculpted the skyline of
Manhattan. We are the people who dreamed a spectacular dream it was called:
Las Vegas, in the Nevada desert; who built up Miami from
the Florida marsh; and who
carved our heroes into the
face of Mount Rushmore.
Americans
harnessed
electricity, split the atom,
and gave the world the telephone and the Internet. We
settled the Wild West, won
two World Wars, landed
American astronauts on the
Moon and one day very
soon, we will plant our flag on
Mars.
We gave the world the poetry of Walt Whitman, the stories of Mark Twain, the songs
of Irving Berlin, the voice of
Ella Fitzgerald, the style of
Frank Sinatra the comedy of Bob Hope, the power
of the Saturn V rocket, the
toughness of the Ford F-150
and the awesome might of the
American aircraft carriers.
Americans must never
lose sight of this miraculous
story. You should never lose
sight of it, because nobody
has ever done it like we have
done it. So today, under
the authority vested in me
as President of the United
States I am announcing
the creation of a new monument to the giants of our
past. I am signing an executive order to establish the
National Garden of American
Heroes, a vast outdoor park
that will feature the statues
of the greatest Americans to
ever live.
From this night and from
this magnificent place, let us
go forward united in our purpose and re-dedicated in our
resolve. We will raise the
next generation of American
patriots. We will write the
next thrilling chapter of the
American adventure. And
we will teach our children to
know that they live in a land
of legends, that nothing can
stop them, and that no one
can hold them down. They
will know that in America,
you can do anything, you can
be anything, and together, we
can achieve anything.
Uplifted by the titans of
Mount Rushmore, we will
find unity that no one expected; we will make strides that
no one thought possible. This
country will be everything
that our citizens have hoped
for, for so many years, and
that our enemies fear
because we will never forget that American freedom
exists for American greatness. And thats what we
have: American greatness.
Centuries from now, our legacy will be the cities we built,
the champions we forged, the
good we did, and the monuments we created to inspire
us all.
My
fellow
citizens:
Americas destiny is in our
sights.
Americas heroes
are embedded in our hearts.
Americas future is in our
hands. And ladies and gentlemen: the best is yet to come.
This has been a great
honor for the First Lady and
myself to be with you. I love
your state. I love this country. Id like to wish everybody a very happy Fourth of
July. To all, God bless you,
God bless your families, God
bless our great military, and
God bless America. Thank
you very much.

Cont – The Skinning Tree A novel by G. Dane Hicks
and winced in pain as the
harsh liquor washed over
the back of her throat.
She swallowed, her eyes
still closed, and a tiny
shudder shook through
her that made her red
curls bounce. She dabbed
at the corner of her
mouth with a finger, then
looked at him and smiled.
McKanes face held its
own look of pain from
watching her.
Easy, now, he leaned
a little toward her, taking
the glass from her and
setting it on the counter.
Youve got to ride that
thing home, remember.
Her eyes searched his
for a second, then broadened to take in the room
around them again as she
stepped backward toward
the door. He took a step to follow
her, about to say something.
Eat your sandwich and write
your story, Michael, she said as
her face stretched into the now
familiar, bleary-eyed grin. Ill
see ya.
He lost sight of her beyond
the door as her image crossed
the windows. Soon the Harleys
engine roared, and faded away.
McKane eased himself back
down into Sandys chair and
watched the solitary red orb of
the Harleys tail light disappear
down the street, the fumes of
the scotch still crawling up his
sinuses. He shook his head and
tried to force himself back to the
story, but clicked in his Internet
connection to check his e-mail
instead.
There was nothing from
Susan.
Chapter 8
Wednesday had been a late
night. It was nearly three in the
morning before McKane shook
off Ellies distraction enough to
plug himself back into the story,
filed it to the computer server in
the backshop, sketched a dummy
of the page one layout and left it
for Judy and Ann in production
and Wendell to finish out and get
to press Thursday morning. He
got home numb from fatigue, his
mind throbbing with thoughts
about how the story could have
been better and how Ellie Taylor
smelled like expensive perfume
WIND…

organize the opposition group
Concerned Citizens of Linn
County, said the move was
a major victory for the opponents.
It is not however the end of
our fight against wind development, Fisher said in an
email Monday. We must be
sure proper measures are in
place to prevent other turbine
developers from building wind
turbines.
Fisher said his group will
now focus on the writing of the
counties new comprehensive
plan. Linn County presently
has no zoning laws restricting
the construction of wind farms
there.
Wind farm companies have
targeted rural counties in the
Midwest without local zoning
plans in hopes of having fewer
restrictions developing their
projects. A similar move was
made by a different company
in Bourbon County last year.

for reasons Wettstein might get
voted out.
But why would someone
get voted out if they do good
work, you might ask, Gordon
posted. Last name; local ties;
money; lack of knowledge by
the voters; a popularity contest; I scratch your back if you
scratch mine. Her suggestion
in the sheriffs race came at
the end of her endorsement,
followed by This is, of course,
my personal opinion and in no
way a reflection of my office.
Anderson County Appraiser
Adam Wilson did not respond
to emails with questions about
office policy on staff endorsements of candidates. Gordon
told the Review she was within
her bounds as long as the comments werent made during
her paid county workday an
assertion confirmed by documents provided to the Review
by Wettstein, who functions as
the countys human resources
head.
I can voice my opinion
as I did, on my lunch break
and after hours and expressly
stated it as my personal opinion and not that of my office,
Gordon told the Review. The
time stamp on her facebook
post was 12:40 p.m.
Valentine said he couldnt
discuss specifics as to why
Gordon would want to see him
defeated in an election bid. He
did say that over his decades
in local law enforcement he
had dealings with numerous
individuals who would have
reason to not want him to be
re-elected.
County policy requires an
employee to resign or take a
leave of absence if that employee files to run for the post of the
office holder in which he or she
works. That provision is not in
affect if the employee works in
a different office.
and leather. Hed collapsed into
bed back at the farmhouse, and
it was a little after 11 a.m. by the
time he pulled the truck around
the corner from Hickory to Main
Street to see the crowd of vehicles gathered up and down the
street, pockets of people standing here and there in groups or
packed in between cars, all clustering around the Sentinel office.
Good Christ, its been like
this since I got here at a quarter
till eight, Ethel Crabbs raspy
voice ground out as McKane
walked through the backshop
doors, his pace slowing to a stop
as his dark eyebrows raised high
into a broad stare of inquiring
bewilderment. The ringing of the
telephone punctuated the end
of Ethels growl. To her right,
McKane could overhear part of
Sandys conversation into the
handset of her phone.
No, were a weekly. We just
come out once a week. There
wasnt a paper printed yesterday. No, just once a The
phone continued to ring.
Here, Ethels thick hand
flipped a section of The Kansas
City Star, turned inside out and
folded to expose an article on an
inside page, toward McKane. He
took the paper, his eyes scanning
the article as she continued.
They got wind yesterday
afternoon about the Sanchez
girl, and I guess they didnt even
know about the first one until
they started checking down here
yesterday, she folded her arms
in front of her and bobbed her
head slightly, matter-of-factly,
seemingly impervious to the
ringing telephone. Half the articles wrong, and weve been getting calls from Topeka. Berniece

also see this sort of training
as being extremely important.
Various public comments
over the years have noted the
number of dilapidated structures in the rural areas of the
county and suggested those
structures could be immolated in order to give firefighters practice. Mersman
said those structures cant
be controlled enough to be
safe, and environmental regulations make it additionally
problematic.
KDHE has set so many
air regulations on smoke that
its really not feasible to burn
acquired structures like we
used to do, Mersman said.
All the asbestos has to be
removed, shingles, anything
that gives off large amounts
of black smoke.
Stoddard was in and said she
saw a Channel 4 van in town
this morning. Sandy ended her
call, pushed the pink release button on the black telephone console on her desk, grimaced, and
picked up the ringing line without noticing McKanes presence.
McKane raised his still sleeptinged eyes to the front office
windows, where several pockets
of people stood in groups in front
of the parked cars, some looking
into the office from time to time.
Behind them, cars moved down
the street at a snails pace, the
shadowy drivers and occupants
clearly straining to see inside the
paper office.
Gary had to run a bunch of
them out of the pressroom a little while ago, her voice raising with disbelief. They were
standing around in there too. I
guess they were just gonna start
pulling papers off the press. Then
somebody calls from Phillips 66
out on the highway wants to
know when were gonna bring
their papers out cause they got
people standing around waiting for em. I told em, hey, its
ten oclock in the morning. We
dont ever get out there til after
lunch.
Incredible. It as the only
word that McKane could muster,
his mind still groggy and easily
stifled by the melee. The phone
sprang to life again.
Uh, Ill go next door and see
how Garys coming.
If this keeps up, Im not
gonna be able to get a postal
report filed by five. Ethel didnt
complain much. It was a legitimate warning.
I know. I know, McKane

Now, how about that drink?
Uh, okay, he responded out
of reflex, backing away toward
the backshop door. Ill have to
get some cups. He disappeared
through the doorway, his eyes
wide as the thoughts poured
through his mind. He caught himself jogging to the coffee maker,
why he really didnt know, and
clinking two mugs together as he
quick-stepped back to the office.
She was still there, at the counter, the scotch already uncapped
and the bottle hoisted into the
air. McKane slid a mug underneath the mouth, noticing the
glaze on her manicured nails as
he did so. The liquid echoed as
it poured into the coffee mug.
She moved the other mug underneath and poured a similar
amount. McKane stood watching
her face, noticing the sharpness
of her chin and her nose, and the
way her eyes seemed to bolt open
wide with every change in her
facial expression as the scotch
jumped slightly from the mug
onto the old varnished wood. A
tiny oops escaped her, and she
grinned at him as she slid a mug
his way.
To new friends? She raised
the glass and looked deeper into
his eyes, the smile lowering to a
smaller, open-mouthed grin.
McKane watched her, his
own face growing into another
embarrassed smile, and became
aware of the pulsing inside his
chest from his quickening heartbeat. He smiled into her wide,
warm green eyes and clinked his
mug against hers.
To new friends. He tipped
back his scotch for a healthy sip,
and his eyes showed more than
a little shock when she threw
back the whole contents of her
mug, pulled it away slowly as
she held it by two dainty fingers,

Im just gonna go ahead and
close the back door until were
done with the run, he bellowed,
used to speaking above the churning drums and whisking paper.
I already run em off once, and I
aint starting up if anybody elses
in here. Insurance. He nodded
his head. Technically, McKane
outranked him, but Mac had
learned not to screw with the
press guys. Parker ran a good
crew, and good press crews were
hard to come by.
Yeah, thats fine. Whatever
you need, Gary, McKane agreed.
We cant have a bunch of people
running around in here like that.
Its crazy.
Twenty-six years, Parker
shook his head turning away and
back to the press, where another
crewman had just rung a warning bell that advanced a set of the
giant paper rolls to the hum of
the big electric motors. Twentysix years and I aint never seen
em coming in the back door
after a newspaper.
McKane nodded, pretending
more disbelief than he really felt,
but Parker was already back at
the press, pointing above his
head into one of the press units
and giving instructions to a
younger man also clad in stained
blue. Mac turned slowly, running his eyes down the lineup of
machinery, which now sang out
a crisp metallic groan as the crew
advanced the winding, unbroken
ribbon of giant paper to make
waved his hand in assurance and
backing toward the door. Itll
slow down. If it doesnt well, uh,
well figure something out.
A metal door and a ninety
year-old brick wall separated the
Sentinels offices from the pressroom next door, and the odor
of ink and solvents rushed to
meet McKanes nose as he swung
the door open into the camera
room which adjoined the production area where page negatives and plates were produced
for the press. An eight unit press
stacked two up hulked across
the back wall beyond the camera
room, each holding a 1,500 pound
roll of clean white newsprint like
giant rolls of toilet paper.
The Sentinels saving grace
for its income statement was the
printing of not just itself but also
four other surrounding weekly newspapers and catalogue
pages for Bell Tool Company, a
New York tool wholesaler with
whom one of the Knaules had
connected over cocktails fifteen
years ago in order to help keep
the Sentinel operation afloat
financially. The room was lit
by twelve-foot high plate glass
windows in the front facing the
street where passersby could
watch the printing process at
work. At the rear of the building
a large garage door opened into
the alley and served as a loading
bay. Gary Parker, the director of
the press room, moved toward
McKane from somewhere at
the back of the room, pointing
a thumb back over his shoulder toward the open back door,
the collar of his ink-stained blue
work coveralls turned slightly
up and his mouth wide under a
