Allen County still worst for crime in region
Annual KBI report shows
crime decreases in state, but
Allen still tops in ECK
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
IOLA Allen County continues to
hold the regional title for highest overall crime per population, according
to statistics released last week by the
Kansas Bureau of Investigation.
By the Kansas Bureau of
Investigations annual analysis of
index crimes violent crimes of
murder, rape, robbery and assault
along with property crimes (burglary
and theft), Allen County swept the
categories among nearby counties of
Anderson, Franklin, Miami, Coffey
and Osage and others further south.
The KBI determines crime indexes
based on the number of those crimes
per 1,000 population. Allen County
had 12,407 residents as of the KBIs
accounting period for 2022 compared
to 7,717 for Anderson County.
Allen County totaled 23.5 indexed
crimes per 1,000 in the KBI report,
which is amassed from local police
department and sheriffs department
reporting from each of Kansas 105
counties. Coffey was the most crimefree at 7.2/1,000.
In sum for 2022, Anderson County
reported 25 violent offenses, 3 rapes,
1 robbery, 21 aggravated assault/
battery incidents, 8 burglaries, 17
thefts, 12 motor vehicle thefts and a
single arson case. That compared to
2021 stats showing 27 violent offens-
es including 2 rapes, 2 robberies, 23
aggravated Assault/battery, along
with 50 property crimes composed of
11 burglaries, 32 thefts, 7 motor vehicle thefts and 1 arson. By comparison
Anderson Countys crime declined
from an overall index of 9.7 crimes per
1,000 population in 2021 to 8.0 in 2022.
All its contiguous neighbors in the
region also had lower indexed crime
rates than Allen County. Bourbon
County was nearly as high, netting a
21.7 total at 14,331 souls; Woodson was
5.8 with 3,105 people; Neosho County
at 7,109 was 13.2.
Franklin County 16.7/25,977, and
Miami County was 10.3 at 27,308. Linn
County notched 8.0/7,151, although
police departments in Mound City,
LaCygne and Linn Valley did not
report data to the KBI.
Kansas most crime infested county
was Wyandotte at 50.7/165,404.
The KBI cautioned in the report
that data in the analysis is contingent
on victims reporting crime to local

Garnett: More spending, less
taxes thanks utility customers
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Garnett utility customers will once again fund the
mainstay of the citys annual
operating budget for the coming year according to a budget
proposal set for a public hearing
August 8, while the states revenue neutral mandate and continued unprecedented increases
in local property values net an
overall tax decrease for local
home and business owners.
Surging property values
fueled by continued hot home
sales have jacked the citys
assessed valuation over recent
years 17 percent from 2022-2023
to 28.6 million and another 12
percent for the coming year to a
little over $32 million city wide.
With the state tax lid in place
that forces a special notification
process should commissioners
raise more overall tax money
than last year, the valuation
increase will actually net property owner about $1,000 in tax
savings a decrease in the mill
level from 41.166 to 36.829.

Affirmative Action ruling wont affect Kansas colleges, regents say
BY PATRICK RICHARDSON
THE SENTINEL
TOPEKA A Supreme Court
decision in late June will
have little effect on college
admissions in Kansas according to the Kansas Board of
Regents.
On June 27, 2023, an historic decision by the United
States Supreme Court effectively ended decades of
race-conscious admissions
at colleges and universities
across the country.
However, where those
standards made the most differences were at highly-selective universities such as
Harvard where one of the
cases originated.
The Regents system in
Kansas, on the other hand,
are qualified admissions
schools.
Because Kansas uses
qualified admissions, the
Supreme Courts ruling will
likely have minimal impact
on our system, KBOR Chair
Jon Rolph said in an emailed
statement. Through qualified admissions, applicants to
state universities in Kansas
must meet minimum GPA or
ACT requirements. If they do,
they are guaranteed admission regardless of other fac-
tors.
Harvard, as an example,
rejects most applicants, and
its admissions process was
found to unfairly advantage African Americans and
Hispanics, while disadvantaging white and Asian students.
A study, included in court
documents as part of the case,
found that as non-profit education news site The74million.
org reported: The acceptance
gaps between categories are
largest around the middle of
the spectrum for academic
qualifications, with African
Americans applying to
Harvard being accepted at a
rate double that of Hispanics
and 12 times greater than
Asian Americans at the
fifth decile (i.e., between
the 41st and 50th percentile
of qualifications). For outof-state applicants to UNC,
African Americans at the fifth
decile were almost 33 times
more likely to be accepted
than Asian Americans and
14 times more likely than
whites.

Universities remain committed to diversity, the difference

BROWNBACK
FEBRUARY 3, 1931 – JULY 11, 2023
Glen
Robert
Bob
Brownback, age 92, of Garnett,
Kansas, formerly of Parker,
Kansas, passed away on
Tuesday, July
11, 2023, at the
Rock Creek
Care Home
in
Ottawa,
Kansas.
Bob was
born
on
February
3, 1931, on a
Brownback
farm
near
H a r r i s ,
Kansas. He was the third
of four children born to
Orville Glen and Leora M.
(Ellington) Brownback. Bobs
family moved to a farm near
Centerville in 1932. Bob graduated from Parker High School
in 1948. The official records
may not have a picture of Bob
as the Kansas farmer, but
that may be appropriate if it
did. He may have struggled
to remember a birthday, but
he could always recount the
crop they raised in whatever year was being discussed.
According to family records,
Bob first drove a tractor at
the age of nine. Visitors to the
Parker Museum can search
for a newspaper article telling of the Brownback boys
(Bob and Billy) breaking a
tractor in half. On October 1,
1950, Bob was united in marriage to Nancy Cowden at the
First Presbyterian Church in
Osawatomie, Kansas. Their
union was blessed with four
children, Mary, Alan, Sam,
and Jim. Bob and Nancy made
their home on their farm east
of Parker in 1953. Bob was a
lifelong farmer and he only left
the farm under duress when
he was no longer able to get on
to the tractor or the combine.
They moved to Garnett in 2019
and Bob found joy in watching
the birds and squirrels in the
yard in town. In his free time
Bob enjoyed watching any
John Wayne movie or every
single episode of Gunsmoke.
On the farm he loved his John
Deere tractors, even though he
thought the green paint was
too expensive.
Bob was generous with his
time away from the farm, serving on local boards, including the Parker and Prairie
View School Boards, and the
American State Bank board,
Osawatomie. He loved their
opportunities to travel. He
especially enjoyed Las Vegas,
cruises, and their trips traveling to Russia, Australia, New
Zealand, England, Ireland,
Iceland, and Egypt. Bob
instilled the value of an education in his family and was
proud of the generations of
his family that pursued higher education. His work ethic
will be remembered by all who
knew him, it was said that he
would have worked in the nursing home, if they would have
allowed it. He took pride in his
farming operation, tending to
his land and equipment constantly. Throughout his life,
he faced many challenges with
his health, in spite of the challenges he was always a fighter.
In the end Bobs dementia was
a challenge for the last few
years of his life, but his love of
his family and wanting to talk
farming still remained.
He was preceded in death
by his parents; brother,
Bill Brownback, and wife,
Charlene; grandson, Scott
Hazard; son in law, Ray
Bakker; great granddaughter, Amelie Brownback; and
two brothers in law, Clayton
Hodgson, and Bill Cowden
Bob is survived by his wife
of 72 years, Nancy Brownback,
of the home; his children and
their families, Mary Jewett
and husband, Mike of Mesa,
Arizona, Alan and wife, Nancy
of Lyndon, Kansas, Sam and
wife, Mary of Topeka, Kansas,
and Jim and wife, Vickie of
Parker, Kansas; 19 grandchildren; and 40 great grandchildren (with more on the way).

OPINION
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 18, 2023
Welcome to the Twilight Zone
Beginning in 1959, a TV program called The
Twilight Zone captured the imagination of
millions of Americans. The show opened with
co-creator Rod Serling saying this:
You are about to enter another dimension,
a dimension not only of sight and sound but of
mind… Next stop, the Twilight Zone!
Then, after a few commercials, bizarre things
took place. The program became legendary.
Now its back, in spirit at least, because of
American politics. We the people are in the
T-zone, no question. Bizarre things happen
every day. Some backup…
The President of the United States could not
remember his week-long trip to Ireland two
weeks after he took it. A ten-year-old visiting the
White House had to refresh his memory.
The
former President of
the United States,
running to return
to office, says
President Biden is
using cocaine, and
thats why a bag
of blow was found
in the West Wing.
Perhaps thats also
why Joe Biden
couldnt remember
his Irish jaunt.
The
Vice
President of the
United
States
explained
the
Russian invasion of
Ukraine this way:
So, Ukraine is a
country in Europe.
It exists next to
another
country called Russia.
Russia is a bigger country. Russia decided to
invade a smaller country called Ukraine. So,
basically, thats wrong.
Thats right! Can we color now?
Last week, Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie, after watching FBI chief
Christopher Wray dodge a myriad of questions
about Bureau corruption, declared that Wray is

Christie also said he could beat up Donald
Trump.

Democratic presidential candidate Robert

Whereupon Kamala Harris pointed out that
Switzerland is a little country in Europe next

hear Ms. Harris say that, but reliable sources
say she might have.
Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor
Greene, angry with former Speaker Nancy
Pelosi, accused her of running a Gazpacho

Mrs. Pelosi was immediately reminded she did
not have lunch.
Sensing a political advantage, Kamala Harris
once again pointed out that Germany is a big

Thanks Governor: Kansas now 8th worst tax-friendly state
High income and sales taxes in Kansas, the
result of Governor Kellys vetoes of two tax
relief packages this year and the state legislatures inability to override the rejections,
have landed the state in the #8 position on a
list of least tax-friendly states for middle-class
families according to Yahoo! Finance.
The only states worse than Kansas are each
under Democrat control: California, District
of Columbia, Hawaii, Minnesota, New Jersey,
Vermont, and Connecticut. Yahoo! treats
the District of
Columbia as a state
for this purpose.
Yahoo! summaThe only states
rizes why it chose
to focus on midworse than Kansas
dle-class families:
In recent years,
the topic of taxare each under
ation has taken
center stage in the
realm of economic Democrat control
discourse, particularly as it pertains
to the financial
well-being of middle-class families. As these families strive to
achieve stability and secure their future, the
impact of state-level taxation cannot be overlooked.
The burden of taxes on the middle class
has become a subject of growing concern,
prompting us to examine the various factors

that contribute to a states tax friendliness.
Nine states do not impose a state income
tax: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire,
South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington,
and Wyoming.Recently, Texas went a step further, providing its taxpayers with the largest
property tax cut in state history.
Kansas imposes a top marginal rate of 5.7%
on personal income, and has a 6.5% sales tax.
Researchers explain its position on the list:
In recent years, the state underwent significant tax reforms that led to increased tax
burdens. However, these reforms resulted in
budgetary challenges and revenue shortfalls.
To address these issues, the state implemented higher taxes across different categories,
including income taxes and sales taxes, to
generate additional revenue.
As is typical, legislators as a whole have
done little to curb expenses.
These tax hikes have contributed to Kansas
being perceived as having a relatively high
tax burden compared to other states.
That perception of Kansas as a high-tax
state is laid at the governors door, according
to Sen. Caryn Tyson, Chair of the Senate
Assessment and Taxation Committee:
Kansas is supposed to be a conservative
state. The legislature is trying to help the
Kansas taxpayer but the Governor thinks
differently.
The legislature passed policy this year
that would have helped all Kansas taxpayers
by cutting property, sales, and income taxes.
However, the Governor vetoed the legislation.
She has supported corporate tax giveaways
but she vetoed personal income tax cuts,
expanding a property tax freeze for seniors
in need and disabled veterans, property tax
relief for all homeowners, a formula to exempt
social security from state income tax, removing state sales tax on food in 2024 instead of
2025, and other tax reductions.
It makes no sense to leave over $3 billion
of taxpayer money in the coffers, while blocking tax reductions that would help working
Kansans and Kansans in need.

Portland Sea Dog games for a whopping $11.
The allure of minor league baseball in the
ordinary course of things isnt a high-stakes
series against a bitter rival or a particular
star. (The title of one book about the minors is
Where Nobody Knows Your Name.) Rather,
its the experience; everything is smaller scale
and friendlier.
In Portland, the ballpark staff is so cheerful and solicitous you almost wouldnt be
surprised if they invited you to come by their
place for a clambake after the game.
On this afternoon, the team was honoring
Special Olympians from Maine. A number of
the athletes were part of a group that threw
out first pitches, and one sang the national
anthem, in a particularly heartfelt and moving rendition.
Meanwhile, the teams mascot, Slugger,
who looks like a dog but is supposed to be
a harbor seal, performed in skits between
innings, including his tradition of losing a

Why Minor League baseball is still the baseball we remember
The Portland Sea Dogs won, but thats
not why, fundamentally, the fans went home
happy.
The Double-A minor league affiliate of the
Boston Red Sox, the Sea Dogs play in a cozy
ballpark in Portland, Maine, and are having
a pretty good year — their 2-1 victory over the
Binghamton Rumble Ponies was their fourth
in a row and theyre in first place in the
Northeast Division of the Eastern League.
I attended the Sunday afternoon ballgame
during a summer stay in Maine, and I, too,
went home satisfied, even though I have no
rooting interest in the Sea Dogs, the Rumble
Ponies, or any other Eastern League team, not
even the Akron RubberDucks.
No, I was content to bask in the glow
of minor league baseball, one of the glories
of an American summer. The mascots loom
large, the between-innings entertainment is
amusingly inventive, the scores dont matter
(much), and everything is geared to creating
warm memories around the game that may
not be the national pastime anymore, but still
occupies an outsized place in the national consciousness.
At its best, minor league baseball combines
the feel of a small-town parade and a meeting
of the local Rotary Club, with nine innings of
baseball interspersed.
The level of competition is, obviously, nothing like the majors; theres no Shohei Ohtani
on the field. On the other side of the coin,
theres usually no insane traffic and hassle,
no highway-robbery prices (a hot dog at a
Baltimore Orioles game costs $8.25), and no
jerks cursing at the top of their lungs.
You can get general admission tickets for a

race with a kid around the bases. (His entry
in the Mascot Hall of Fame puts his lifetime
record in these races at 0-1,928.)
It all happens at Hadlock Field, considered
one of the best of the minor league parks. It
opened in 1994 but feels like more of a throwback. It is nestled among the citys streets, the
way the classic major league ballparks once
were. Railroad tracks run behind left field and
an old brick exhibition center abuts the rightfield line.
With a capacity of about 7,000, there isnt
a bad seat in the place. Balls fouled back
behind home plate routinely leave the facility
entirely. In a homage to the Green Monster
in Fenway Park, left field has a 37-foot-high
green fence topped by a Citgo sign and giant
Coke bottle.
On Sundays, the Sea Dogs let kids under
age 16 run the bases after games. Given the
number of families in attendance, its tantamount to inviting half the ballpark to file onto
the well-manicured field. Hundreds of kids
make the circuit around first and to home
— where just minutes before the professionals
were playing — at top speed. Pure. Joy.
And, oh, yeah, Portland starting pitcher
Isaac Coffey struck out nine, and catcher
Nathan Hickey hit a two-run homer in the
victory.
Its always one, two, three strikes, youre
out, at the old ball game, but the minor leagues
offer a particularly charming version of the
timeless game.

ORDINANCE NO. 4248
AN ORDINANCE ADOPTING THE
CODIFICATION OF ORDINANCES OF THE
CITY OF GARNETT, KANSAS, PROVIDING
FOR THE REPEAL OF CERTAIN OTHER
ORDINANCES NOT INCLUDED THEREIN,
EXCEPTING CERTAIN ORDINANCES FROM
REPEAL AND SAVING CERTAIN ACCRUED
RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES.
Be it Ordained by the Governing Body of the
City of Garnett, Kansas:
BUDGET…
FROM PAGE 1
million in the citys 2024 expenditures will come from other
sources user fees and primarily city utility revenues
from its electric, water and
gas departments. Garnett City
Manager Travis Wilson said
the revenue neutral requirement and the resulting need for
tighter budgeting has forced
the city to be more efficient in
the way it prepares the coming
years spending plan.
Past budgets have been
built off of formulas to come to
the desired/anticipated budget
needed for operation, Wilsons
said. The past two years, I've
been pulling data from the last
6 months of the prior year, and
the first 6 months of the current year to develop our budget. This has not only trimmed
it down, it has given a more
accurate representation of
what was truly needed to operate.
Wilson said the process
has also been streamlined by
a more efficient approach by
commissioners and staff in
assessing expenses.
In years past, we would discuss the budget line by line,
with some meetings spending multiple hours on one
department arguing over $10.
So I would say efficiency has
improved.
At $4.3 million, the citys
electric fund is the biggest line
item on the annual budget. That
cost will go up from $4.1 million estimated this year. The
city will return its road budget
to more normal funding, projecting $450,000 this year, down
from the $650,000 estimated for
2023 due to a number of local
projects. Commissioners budgeted $458,000 for roads in 2022.
Other investments will
be made in the citys elderly housing projects, with
Parkside Place I and II as
well as Park Plaza North seeing budget increases totaling
some $412,000 for the coming
year, with about half that going
toward investments at PP1.
The citys largest overall
consumer of tax funding is
the public safety department
police and fire at some
$455,000. Thats about 38 percent of the total tax money
Garnett projects to raise in
2024.
Wilson said one of the more
noticeable cuts in the 2024 budget may be the reduction of
a full time position from the
Parks & Recration Department.
That may cause some
issues with scheduling and getting all things mowed during
mowing season, Wilson said,
however there will be more
money allocated toward part
time salaries which will allow
us to hire an additional seasonal employee for the mowing
season. Not sure how that is
going to play out next year.
The public can comment on
the budget at the hearing set for
6 p.m. August 8 at Garnett City
Hall. A summary of the budget information is published in
todays Review on page 10.

Cornstock gets support by KC area businesses
GARNETT – Its not every day
that a small town event gets
noticed, but Cornstock has captured the attention by some
owners of multiple businesses
who say its time to not just
go to this event but support it
through sponsorship.
We received a sponsorship form from Osage Resort
on Indian Point, located in
Branson, Missouri. Their new
venture includes total renovation of the resort with new furnishings and a desire to reach
a large audience looking for
a budget-friendly family vacation, Susan Wettstein, Vice
President of the Anderson
County Corn Festival, Inc.
(Cornstock) recalls. Then the
next thing I know, I receive
a phone call from another
ACCF board member, Wendy
Clark-Ritt, who is very excited, telling me the owner of
Osage Resort called her saying
three more businesses from
the Kansas City area wanting
to come on board. For the
past eight years, a group of
family and friends have been
attending Cornstock. Last year
they felt so strongly about how
much they enjoyed the annual
getaway to Cornstock that it
was time not just attend, but to
support it and allow the perks
of their sponsorship to be used
as employee appreciation to
those employees who wanted
to also attend.
The Anderson County Corn
Festival welcomes Garrison
Plumbing, Total Design, and
Garrison Excavating as 2023
Cornstock Music Festival
Premier Sponsors. Garrison
Plumbing is also a Volunteer
Services Partner, and Total
Design is also a Corporate
Shuttle Sponsor, along with
Garrison Excavating as a
Cooks Corral Partner. Osage
Resort on Indian PointBranson will be a Corporate
VIP Tent/Privileges Partner.
Garrison Plumbing itself has
more than 100 highly skilled
employees. These businesses
are located in Olathe and provide products and services in
the Kansas City area.
Also joining the longtime
Cornstock Music Festival
Premier
Sponsors,
East
Kansas Agri-Energy and
AuBurn Pharmacies, is local-
ly owned retail establishment,
Everything Else. Everything
Else is located on Oak Street
in Garnett and strives to provide merchandise products
that may not be available locally. We are humbled by the
support, both by the enthusiasm and the financial means
by these Premier sponsors,
as well as every sponsor we
have, says Brenda McCain,
Sponsorship Chair for the
Cornstock Music Festival.

Kropf recipient of
Midwest Dairy scholarship
In the Missouri-Kansas
region within Midwest Dairy,
a scholarship is provided for
students who
are actively involved
w i t h i n
the
dairy
industry.
This
year,
Midwest
Dairy
recognized ten
Kropf
recipients
including
Becky Kropf of Westphalia,
Kan.
Kropf started working at
Sunrise Dairy in 2005 as well
as her participation in the exhibition of dairy cattle.
She joined the Tip-Top
4-H club where Kropf helped
in facilitating dairy projects,
served as the junior dairy
leader at the local and county
level and participated in the
2018 World Dairy Expo Judging
Contest.
Her time in the FFA was
spent similarly; Kropf was a
member of the dairy cattle evaluation team and the national milk quality and products
team.
Kropf is a junior studying
economics at Brown University
in Providence, RI.
The experiences she has
gained from being involved
in dairy has allowed Kropf to
understand how milk pricing
has affected the dairy industry
in terms of profitability and the
number of farms in operation.
Kropf is deeply passionate
about advocating for farmers
and sharing their stories with
others.

We need thoughtful leaders

The KBI cautions against
using data to make direct comparisons between jurisdictions.
Often these comparisons are
not valid as the factors influencing crime vary widely
between communities, the
report noted.
Overall the 2022 Kansas
Crime Index Report indicated
that violent crime in Kansas
decreased by 4.3% from 2021,
showing declines in each of the
categories of violent crime. A
total of 12,849 violent crimes
were reported in Kansas in the
categories of murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault
and battery.
Violent crime in Kansas had
been steadily rising each year
since 2014, but seems to have
started to level off as violent
crime offenses declined in 2021
and 2022.
Property
crimes
also
declined overall in 2022 according to the data. Statewide
reports showed a 10% decline
in 2022 from 2021. Property
crime offenses are assumed
to be underreported to law
enforcement.

san politics and a far-right,
anti-abortion agenda from
House Republicans that sought
to hold support for our military hostage.
In addition to de-authorizing military healthcare coverage from paying for sex reassignment surgeries, hormone
replacement and abortions,
the bill also eliminated the
Pentagons office of diversity,
equity and inclusion and its
staff. A separate amendment
that bars a Defense Department
agency which operated the
DODs educational training
centers from buying books that
contain pornography or those
that endorse radical gender
ideology was also attached to
the bill.
A dependable House vote in
favor of abortion, laws giving
preference to trans men who
say they are women and vir-
tually every other legislative
initiative undertaken by the
Biden Administration, Davids
has maintained a voting record
in sync with liberals in Johnson
and Wyandotte counties and in
contrast to conservative majorities in her other district counties of Miami, Franklin and
Anderson. The only Democrat
elected in congress elected
from Kansas, shes frequently
the sole Kansas delegation vote
in favor of Biden priorities.
Although Davids makes
few personal appearances in
the conservative areas in her
district, she and third party
funders have recently engaged
an email and direct mail campaign to promote her candidacy. Davids defeated Republican
challengers in the past three
elections and runs for office
again in 2024.
makes things much different.
State universities are
committed to recruiting and
serving students from traditionally underserved populations, but the nature of qualified admissions makes their
admissions processes substantially different than highly selective institutions that
reject a large percentage of
applicants, he said.
Carveout leaves wiggle
room
In the majority opinion
Chief Justice John Roberts
said universities must use colorblind criteria as Kansas
qualified admission system
does.
Many universities have
for too longconcluded,
wrongly, that the touchstone
of an individuals identity is
not challenges bested, skills
built, or lessons learned but
the color of their skin, he
wrote. Our constitutional
history does not tolerate that
choice.
However, Roberts also
carved out a little room to get
around that colorblindness.
Nothing in this opinion
should be construed as prohibiting universities from
considering an applicants discussion of how race affected
his or her life, he wrote.
A statement from Harvard
University read, in part, The
Court ruled that colleges
and universities may consider
in admissions decisions an
applicants discussion of how
race affected his or her life,
be it through discrimination,
inspiration, or otherwise. We
will certainly comply with the
Courts decision.
The statement reiterated
the schools commitment to
diversity.
Harvards statement went
on to note seemingly to try
to discredit the most recent
ruling that two previous
federal courts had upheld the
universitys admissions policies. However that is irrelevant, given the Supreme
Court disagreed with those
lower courts.
In the weeks and months
ahead, drawing on the talent
and expertise of our Harvard
community, we will determine how to preserve, consistent with the Courts new
precedent, our essential values, the statement read.
