County cancels fair, keeps 4-H livestock sale
More Covid-19 cases,
animal virus drives nix
to summer tradition
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Like the demise
of the Kansas State Fair in
Hutchinson on Monday of last
week, the Anderson County
Fair made it through the 1918
pandemic, terrorist attacks of
9-11, the Great Depression and
two world wars but county
commissioners and fair organizers decided last week the
county fair was no match for
Covid-19.
The fair is the latest 2020 season event to bite the dust due
to concerns over Covid, along
with gatherings in Colony,
Kincaid and the Cornstock concert in Garnett. All fair events
are cancelled with the exception of the 4-H livestock sale.
County fair board members
met with county commissioners Wednesday to officially cancel the fair after a fair board
meeting previously that week.
Increasing numbers of Covid19 positive tests in the county
and state, as well as the presence in adjoining counties of
Vesicular Stomatitius Virus, a
non-lethal virus that mimics
hoof and mouth disease and
makes hoof and mouth harder
to detect, were the primary rea-
sons for the cancellation.
So far VSV is affecting only
horses in the region, though
officials are concerned it could
be spread by county fairs if
animals are brought into contact then brought back to their
home herds. The fair board will
enforce a policy that all animals
brought to the fairgrounds for
the sale must be sent to market
and cannot be returned home.
Rebecca Johnson with
the Southeast Kansas Multi-
County Health Department
said Monday Anderson County
presently had five active Covid19 cases, 18 recovered cases and
24 positive tests since testing
began. The county has seen no
hospitalizations or fatalities.
Fair board president Kirby
Barnes said most fair sponsors
hed been in contact with said
theyd allow the fair to keep
their paid sponsor fees for the
year, so the organization saw
little immediate financial hard-
ship other than a $5,000 deposit it put down with the carnival company which had been
scheduled. That carnival agreement might be an issue, Barnes
said, if the company tried to
enforce the full contractual
obligation and its minimum
requirement of some $30,000.
Last Monday organizers of the Kansas State Fair
announced the September

Business opts to close

BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 7-21-2020 / DANE HICKS
Usually a hotbed of activity this time of year as organizers prepare for the upcoming Anderson County Fair, the county fairgrounds will remain mostly desolate in
2020 with the cancellation last week of nearly all fair activities except the 4-H livestock sale. Concerns over growing Covid-19 cases and a rare animal virus that
mimics hoof and mouth disease motivated county commissioners and fair board members to scrub this years event.
Congressional race heats up with charges, allegations
Watkins faces voter fraud
charges, alleges LaTurner
colluded with Shawnee DA
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA The plot thickens in the
Republican primary contest for Kansas
2nd Congressional District between
incumbent Steve Watkins and challenger
Jake LaTurner.
With criminal voter fraud charges filed
against Watkins last week and allegations
LaTurner shares a political consultant
with the Shawnee County prosecutor
who filed the charges, it appears the case
wont even be taken up in court until after
the November general election.
Watkins says theres too much coincidence in the timing of the charges and
the fact LaTurner is as much as 20 points
behind Watkins in some polls. Thats
a situation old guard Republicans cant
allow, Watkins says.
LaTurners campaign did not respond
to an email over the weekend from the
Review seeking comment.
Anderson County is included in the 2nd
Congressional District, which runs from
Nebraska to Oklahoma
along nearly the eastern one-third of the
state. Republicans in
that district will choose
from between current
Kansas State Treasurer
LaTurner from Galena,
Watkins and Dennis
Taylor, former chief of
LaTurner staff to Governor Mike
Hayden, from Topeka.
Watkins, who attended a meet and
greet event Thursday in Garnett for
Anderson County Republicans, said
it was more than coincidence that the
charges were filed after the close of business last Tuesday, just 30 minutes before
Watkins was to take part in the only
scheduled primary debate with his two
opponents at a Topeka TV station. No one
from LaTurners campaign attended the
Garnett event.
The Shawnee County Sheriffs
Department
began
investigating Watkins
in December 2019
regarding false information included on
his Topeka voter registration form, and a
city council election in
which he voted while
that form was erroneWatkins ous. Shawnee County
District Attorney Mike
Kagay, also a Republican, received the
case from investigators in April, but waited until mid-July to file charges of voter
fraud, lying to an investigator, and not

Covid cancellations free up local tourism bucks
GARNETT The city will
have some extra tourism
funds available this year since
the cancellation of several previously funded events but
the question remains whether
or not any events will actually take place to make use of
them.
Garnett
Community
Development Director Susan
Wettstein told city commissioners in a report Tuesday
night tourism funding for
two events an August production by The Chamber
Players Community Theater
as well as the recently cancelled Cornstock Concert On
The Hill in September would
send about $5,400 back into the
citys tourism fund.
Garnett taxes overnight
stays at local motels, bed and
breakfasts and other transient
lodging to develop funds it
uses for advertising numerous local events designed to
build more local tourism and
market the communitys various events to help build local
traffic.
Wettstein said the citys
tourism board had committed
a marketing grant to the Lake
Garnett Grand Prix Revival
of around $6,200, which would
net about $4,900 remaining in
the fund for 2020.
#OneLouder Mark Samsel
Numerous local events
were cancelled this summer
as fear of Covid-19 infection
curtailed many public gatherings and shorted sponsors of
vital business revenues they
would otherwise have available to donate to the festivals.
The Colony Day celebration
and Kincaid Free Fair, both
regularly set for September,
were cancelled earlier this
year.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A popular local eatery
plans to reopen July 27 after closing
last week when one of its employees
tested positive for Covid-19.
Reuben Esh with Dutch Country
Cafe said health officials provided the
restaurant recommendations on a path
to stay open in the meantime, but he
said it was more important to ensure
the safety of the customers and staff by
closing in the interim.
Esh said the employee was part of
the back of the house staff with minimal contact with both clients, other
staff and food areas.
We are monitoring our other
employees and thankfully no one else
is showing symptoms at this time, Esh
said.
Eighteen of Anderson Countys 24
positive Covid-19 diagnoses had recovered as of yesterday, according to
regional health department reports. It
is not known whether the employee
in question is one of those recovered
cases.
Prior to the incident, Esh said Dutch

Old hotel gets
another reprieve
GARNETT An historic
Garnett downtown hotel has
grasped another of its nine
lives and been salvaged from
the wrecking ball with a plan
for a tax sale on July 23.
The Pennsylvania Hotel, last
operated nearly a decade ago as
Denises Country Caf, closed
in 2011 amid a
flurry of state
and local tax
liens filed for
delinquent
sales and federal employment taxes.
The building
fell into disrepair and was
subsequently
condemned,
then blocked
to firefighter
access because the floors were
deemed unsafe.
The structure has not been
used as a hotel since perhaps
the 1940s details of its operation are unsure, because
notations
regarding
the
Pennsylvania in the Anderson
County Histories and other
local history books cite only
its changes of ownership.
Names like Joe Rooks, Charley
Farrow, A.C. Crozier, Frank
Highberger, L.W. Steinbacher
and an Iola man named W.H.
Mills all owned the operation
between 1915 and 1917, leading
to suspicion that the profitability of the establishment might
have been in question even in
times when the county square
was booming.
Review file photo
The structure was set for
a county tax sale in 2016, but
had to be pulled at the last minute because one of the unsatisfied federal liens was found to
still be in effect. City officials
tried to interest a prospect in it
during the fall 2019 tax sale, but
the individual failed to show
up for the event. That meant
the structure was still on the
county tax rolls with a $20,000
local tax bill against it.

more than $19,000 during 2016
and 2018. LaTurner paid Van
Meteren around $19,000 in 2018
during his campaign for state
treasurer.
LaTurner had previously
launched a campaign for the
U.S. Senate seat of the retiring
Pat Roberts, but switched to
file for the congressional race
after the public urging of former Governor Jeff Colyer.
Watkins has been targeted by much of the Kansas
Republican
establishment
since his seven-way primary
win over a handful of sitting
GOP legislators in 2018.
In August 2019, back channel communication from
Republicans whispered rumors
of Watkins upcoming resignation and the need for district
Republicans to appoint his
replacement. That resignation
never came, and Republicans
in the district never explained
where it started or upon what
it was based.

against
Watkins.
Opponents have alleged
Watkins lied on the forms to
avoid admitting he was actually living with his parents in
Topeka and didnt have his
own residence. Watkins later
corrected the information on
the forms. The first hearing on
the charges in Shawnee County
District Court isnt set until
early December.
On Wednesday, Watkins
attorneys filed a motion to disqualify Kagay from the prosecution, since both he and
LaTurner share a political
advisor in Kris VanMeteren,
a former executive director of
the Kansas Republican Party,
who has frequently targeted
Watkins in his social media
attacks since before the 2018
primary.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 21, 2020
OPINION
Time to fight for democracy
Im going to get straight to the point. Its time
for bold action. Its time for Americans everywhere who love their country to heed the words
of President Ronald Reagan: If we lose freedom
here, theres no place to escape to. This is the
last stand on earth.
All around us, the forces of socialism,
Marxism and anarchy are waging a war against
democracy and the moral legitimacy of the
great American experiment. Radicals have
hijacked peaceful protests and are using the
current racial unrest as a tool to attack the very
foundation of our nation.
Violent mobs have defaced and torn down
statues across the country in the name of social
justice, yet theyve gone beyond toppling the
statues of slave owners and Confederates to toppling statues like that of former slave Frederick
Douglass, one of the nations greatest abolitionists who dedicated his life to ending slavery and
promoting justice for African Americans.
Memorials to Founding Fathers George
Washington and Thomas Jefferson, and even
the statues of Union heroes like Abraham
Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant more than 150
statues and memorials nationwide have been
destroyed, defaced, or taken down during the
last month and a half of protests.
It has become clear that it matters little to the
Marxists and anarchists what a statue or monument represents. All that matters to them is
that it represents Americas past, and therefore,
it must come down.
Its also clear that theyre not interested in
resolving race issues. Destroying monuments,
burning churches, and looting businesses
do nothing to bring attention to racism or to
advance police reforms. Theyre simply using
racial discontent to forward their Marxist agenda.
Meanwhile, spineless politicians who agree
with the rioters agenda, if not their tactics,
have told police to stand down. After rioters in Baltimore recently tore down a statue
of Christopher Columbus and tossed it into
the harbor, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a
Baltimore native, blithely excused the behavior,
telling reporters, People will do what they do.
Many of these mal-educated rioters and politicians believe everything about Americas
past is based in racism. They are fed this lie in
schools and by institutions like the New York
Times, which claims with great historical illiteracy in its 1619 Project that this country wasnt
founded based on humanitys highest ideals in
GUEST EDITORIAL
KAY C. JAMES, THE HERITAGE FOUNDATION
1776, but rather in 1619, when the first slaves
were brought to the New World. The Times
even absurdly asserts that the Revolutionary
War wasnt fought to gain our independence
but to keep slavery alive in the colonies. Thats
why The Heritage Foundation has joined with
other conservative leaders in the 1776 Project
to rebut this revisionist history and bring the
truth to light.
In his speech at Mount Rushmore honoring
Independence Day, President Trump spoke to
the heart of the matter: [O]ur 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 were villains [A]ll 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.
We have built statues and memorials to recognize individuals and events representing
some of the noblest and even some of the
worst moments in our history. The people memorialized didnt lead perfect lives, and
many did controversial or even evil things, but
monuments help tell our history and help us
remember our highest ideals as well as the
mistakes weve made and wish not to repeat
again.
If localities decide that some of their public
statues need to come down because they no
longer represent the values of their community,
then the proper course is through the democratic process and civil dialogue, not mobocracy.
But if politicians ignore or even tacitly

Partnerships crucial in Covid vaccine search
Scientists at Yale University and scores
more research institutions nationwide are
working around the clock to identify potential avenues of diagnosing, preventing, and
treating COVID-19. Many of these projects are
backed by the federal governments National
Institutes of Health. Any one of them could
lead to a game-changing insight that helps end
this pandemic.
For any of these efforts to succeed, however, it will take more than government-funded
laboratory research. The reality is that in
the United States, medical progress depends
on partnerships between academic scientists
and biopharmaceutical firms willing to risk
millions to test whether a promising insight
actually pans out.
The process of drug discovery and development in the United States follows a typical
pattern: University researchers apply for federal grants to study basic scientific questions,
such as how the novel virus infects a cell.
If they discover something that could have
an application, they may file an application
to protect their intellectual property. This
intellectual property can then be licensed to
a private company that commits to investing
the time, expense, and expertise required to
try and translate the nascent discovery into a
safe and effective therapy.
Bringing a new medicine would be nearly
impossible without this structure. Clinical
trials alone can cost hundreds of millions of
dollars and take years to complete. And only
COMMENTARY
JON SODERSTROM, YALE UNIVERSITY
about 12 percent of drugs that enter phase I
clinical trials make their way to FDA approval.
University researchers have expert knowledge of the science they do in their labs. They
do not typically have the expertise and institutional knowledge required to shepherd new
drugs through the FDAs complex approval
process. Thats another benefit of the collaborative model. Private pharmaceutical companies bring such expertise, as well as facilities
to produce new technologies at scale while
maintaining the highest standards of safety and efficacy. This private-sector expertise
and capacity enables new medicines to get to
patients as quickly as possible.
The same cant be said of either universities or the federal government. After all,
universities are devoted to the creation and
dissemination of knowledge — not to the intricacies of pharmaceutical supply chains and
FDA regulations.
This model has yielded breakthrough therapies, like Taxol, a medicine for breast and
ovarian cancer, and Tovaxin, which treats
multiple sclerosis. Under license from Yale,
the pharmaceutical company Bristol-Myers
Squibb developed Zerit, a key component of
what would become the combination therapy
for HIV/AIDS. Bristol-Myers would subsequently make Zerit available at minimal cost
in Africa, where it has helped save millions of
lives.
Such collaboration traces its origins to the
Patent and Trademark Law Amendments Act
of 1980, better known as Bayh-Dole. Over the
past 40 years, the United States has emerged
as the global leader in pharmaceutical innovation, responsible for two in three new medicines.
Americas unique drug development model
has never been more important to global
health.
The pace of COVID-19 research coming
from scientists in American labs has been
nothing short of astounding. In partnership
with the capital and expertise of the private
sector, these discoveries will soon usher in
global benefits.
Jon Soderstrom is the Managing Director
of the Office of Cooperative Research at Yale
University.

If New York is going to be held up as the
model, every officeholder in the country has a
new road map for handling the virus: See a significant percentage of residents of your largest
city get infected, barely prevent your hospital
system from getting overwhelmed, implement
a policy that increases infections and deaths at
nursing homes, suffer more than 30,000 deaths
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
and a higher per-capita death rate than any
country in the world — and then, after all that,
get hailed as a hero.
In fairness, New York had many factors
working against it. It was hit first, while the
virus and how to treat it were still poorly
understood, and New York City is an international travel hub with densely packed neighborhoods and a heavily trafficked public transit system. Of course it got hammered.
The outbreaks in other parts of the country
arent anything like what happened in New
York, at least not yet. What states like Florida,
Arizona, Texas and California are trying to
do is avoid New Yorks fate, even as they are
lectured about the superiority of the Empire
States approach.
The positivity rate — the percentage of tests
coming back positive — has increased in all of
these places, and in Arizona has gone above
20%. During the worst of the outbreak in New
York, the seven-day moving average for the
positivity rate reached an astronomical 50%.
Deaths are going up, too, but the scale so far
is completely different. In New York, about
32,500 people have died. In Florida, a state
of comparable population, about 4,300 people
have died. In Texas and California, both bigger states, about 3,300 and 7,000 people have
died.
New York should be a watchword, not
something to emulate.
It is in a better situation now, but only after
the virus burned through much of the city. A
state survey found that more than 20% of New
York City residents have antibodies to the
virus. This isnt an experience anyone should
want to duplicate.
The fact is that the virus isnt interested
in scoring partisan points or establishing the
superiority of red state versus blue state governance. It is highly infectious and now is hitting places it missed earlier in the pandemic
as they have started to reopen.
We should wish them the very best — and
fervently hope they dont suffer the same
calamity that befell New York.

Cartoon hooey
To the editor,
I am still proud to have been born and raised
in Garnett, Kansas, despite some of the things
that show up on the editorial page of this newspaper and in your Facebook posts.
Today somebody showed me a cartoon
from your
Facebok
Readers Letters page that
showed
Governor
Kelly wearing a face mase with a crude Star of
David, with a background of people being loaded onto boxcars and this caption: Lockdown
Laura says: Put on your mask… and step onto
the cattle car. Really?
It sure looks like you are comparing the holocaust, in which millions of people were deliberately murdered because of their religion,
with Governor Kellys executive order about
wearing masks in public, which is a lawful
order intended to protect the public health and
to keep people from dying.
As my father might have said, and at the
risk of being way too polite: Thats a bunch of
hooey. And you know it. The problem is that
its an insulting, divisive and dangerous bunch
of hooey.
As a legislator, I have worked with Governor
Kelly for the last six years and I have found
her to be a person of the highest character and
integrity. I can guarantee you that any executive order she issues regarding this pandemic
is made with the best medical advice available
and with an intent to find the least restrictive
way possible to protect our health. And as you
know, counties can opt out of the Governors
order, and Anderson County has done so. This
wasnt an option in Nazi Germany.
I am very glad that Anderson County has
had so few COVID-19 cases, and I hope it stays
that way. I have a suggestion: Instead of making baseless, divisive accusations, why dont
we work together to beat this virus as soon as
possible, so that we can all get back to our work
and get on with our normal lives?

topplers must be arrested and
prosecuted. We must educate
the public about the truth of
the founding of the most exceptional nation on earth. And
we must wrest our educational system from the hands of
leftists who use our schools
as indoctrination centers
before we lose yet another generation to them.
This must be our wake-up
call, because as Ronald Reagan
also admonished, freedom
must be fought for, protected,
and handed on to our children
to do the same, or one day,
well be telling our childrens
children what it was once like
in the United States where men
were free.

Keeping Perspective in Politics
Jackie Mundt, Pratt County

My 35th birthday is this
week. Though some women
beyond their 20s dont like to
share their age, I have no problem admitting it.
This birthday feels like the
last of my young person
milestones. I will legally be old
enough to run for president of
the United States of America.
The moment doesnt have
the same anticipation of independence that came with
acquiring the ability to work,
drive, vote or drink. It is an
aged and mellow satisfaction,
born of the knowledge that I
have reached the point where
the Founding Fathers believed
an individual had enough life
experience to be able to lead
the country.
Like many children, I
dreamed about what it would
be like to hold the highest office

in the land, but as an adult,
the idea actually seems pretty
undesirable.
The world of politics has
become so divisive and cruel.
It often feels like watching children in a schoolyard. There is
name-calling, he-said she-said
arguments, pouting when you
dont get your way, overreactions to perfectly normal disagreement, no filter of what is
polite or helpful, and a strange
occurrence where someone
who isnt like you becomes a
monster.
During a campaign season,
it seems to become even worse.
Between vilifying TV commercials, stacks of hateful postcards and a barrage of social
media ads about the alleged
evils of candidates, you have to
have strong armor to weather
it all. And dont think this is
just at the federal level, I see it
in local races too.
The craziest part of this is
we do have people who answer
the call to serve. In fact, I think
most politicians are good people who feel compelled to serve
and are trying to do what they
think is best. These people
endure harsh criticism and
try their best to represent the
interests of all their constituents, even the ones that just
called them evil.
So, as the horrific election
season rolls on, I want to say
thank you to the individuals at
all levels who have raised their
hands and are vying to serve
as elected officials. I appreciate your willingness to serve
despite all the negatives, like
experiencing criticism no matter how good you are at the
job. My attitude of gratitude
is a product of a deeply held
belief that you are a person
who wants to make the world
better.
In addition to my heartfelt
thanks, I offer a commitment to
my fellow Americans who put
themselves out there to serve:
I will always do my best to
be polite and treat you with
respect, even if I disagree with
you. I will listen openly to the
information you share and be
willing to provide my opinion
and experiences with you in a
civil manner. When you make
a decision I dont agree with,
now or after being elected, I
will do my best to temper my
disappointment and seek to
understand how you arrived at
your conclusion. Most importantly, I will continue to look
for the best in you not the
worst.

Anyone with a teenager
knows that COVID-19 restrictions and the curtailing of normal summer activities is making for a challenging summer.
That means more risks this
time of year for teen drivers
than ever before. With uncertainty surrounding summer
jobs, sports, camps and other
activities that would normally consume their days, young
drivers have more time on
their hands and on the road.
The potential for tragedy is real
not only for teens, but those
who share the road with them.
Nationwide, more than 8,300
people died in crashes involving teen drivers from 2008 to
2018 during the 100 Deadliest
Days, the period between
Memorial Day and Labor Day.
Thats more than seven people a day each summer. Our

data analysis has found that
for every mile driven, new teen
drivers ages 16-17 years old are
three times more likely to be
involved in a deadly crash compared to adults.
Novice teen drivers will
make mistakes in the roughly
5-year learning curve required
to achieve safe driving competency. Even the best and
brightest teen drivers have
an increased risk of being
involved in a deadly crash compared with experienced adult
drivers. Thats why adding
even one reckless behavior like
speeding, drinking and/or taking drugs, or distractions from
passengers or mobile devices
can prove deadly in a split second. Some 59 percent of all teen
crashes involve some form of
driver inattention.
We can help teens survive
the 100 Deadliest Days first
by modeling safe driving behavior. Parents and other adults
can teach by example and help
ensure young drivers are prepared for the responsibilities
of the road. Now is the time
to begin potentially life-saving
conversations with a teen you
love to set and enforce rules
and discuss the risks behind
the wheel. The AAA Parent
Coaching Guide 2020 is among
the valuable resources at
TeenDriving.AAA.com to minimize confrontations about
expectations.
COVID-related challenges
this summer multiply the need
for safety many times over.
Understanding the risks can
help Kansas teens and their
parents avoid devastating consequences.

Cont – The Skinning Tree A novel by G. Dane Hicks
Due to social distancing directives in view of the present Covid19
emergency and the fact that many
Review readers are sequestering to varying degrees in their
homes and looking for reading
materials among ways to pass the
time, we are publishing segments
of Review publisher Dane Hicks
2003 novel The Skinning Tree
(Began March 24) over the course
of the next several weeks.
Chapter 8 Cont
*picking up from where left on from
July 14th edition
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 adjustments in preparation to start the press run. He
glanced at the front windows
again and saw the small groups
of people standing outside, looking in almost like they expected
to be able to read the paper on the
press as it curved and doubled
around the bends in its path.
He glowed a little inside with
a warming sense of fulfillment,
but the warmth was dampened
with a nagging uncertainty.
The press was churning, which
kicked off the process of public consumption and whatever
followed from its digestion. The
sound of the press meant readers
were minutes away from catching the freshest news in Sharon
County, but to McKane the sound
meant a new week was only now
beginning.
Shutting her eyes tighter
only seemed to make the
visions of Sashas parents
faces burn into Stephs
mind that much more
clearly. She lay on her
bed, clutching a pillow
to her chest and laying
on her side facing the
window, her eyes slowly
opening and moist with
tears.
Theyd tracked her
down after school after
checking out the track
meet, where the girls
normally would have
been on a day like today,
hanging out and watching the guys and cheering in their own spirited twosome from the
stands. But since Steph
didnt have a car Sasha
was her usual means of
transportation, and she
hadnt seen Sasha since
Monday. She presumed it was
the meeting shed had yesterday
afternoon when Mr. Barr, the
high school counselor, called her
into his office which prompted
Sashas folks showing up at her
house Thursday after school.
She told them what she knew,
if Mr. Barr hadnt already, and
she felt lower and lower as the
looks of sick concern slowly weighted down their faces.
Sashas Dad stood there on the
porch, his hands in his pockets,
jingling his keys and his change,
his sunglasses unable to obscure
the lack of movement in his face
and the sallow shade that covered it. Sashas mom stood dead
square in front of Steph as she
leaned on the threshold and held
open the metal door. They didnt
look angry, Steph thought with
a bit of surprise. They looked
scared. They just looked scared.
Nearly three hours had gone by,
and their faces were still fresh in
her mind.
The back door to the frame
house rattled as Stephs mom
blew in, jingling with car keys,
hoop earrings, bracelets and
rings as she hustled into the
kitchen to drop the sack on the
kitchen table. She paused to
take a drag from the Marlborro
Light in her right hand, and did
a quick check of her salon nails
as she pulled the cigarette away,
exhaling in an anxious puff.
Steph leaned on the facing of
the kitchen door as she edged
around within view of her mother, who wore a pair of tight white
capris, black heels, and a lowcut black blouse. A little flashy
for an accounts payable clerk at
a construction company up in
Merriam, but everyday apparel
for Mary Corbin.
Hey, baby. I was just getting
ready to come looking for you.
Why? Steph said, still distracted.
Well, her mother said as
she went through the motions
of purposely slowing down and
pulling out the chair at the table,
motioning for Steph to sit down.
I want to talk to you about something thats going on.
Stephs body began to tighten.
It had to be bad news. Anytime
her mother slowed her frantic pace to try to involve her
daughter with any conversation
to speak of, it meant something
was about to happen to upset the
family apple cart. What could it
be this time, Steph thought to
herself as she hesitantly sat in
the chair, her eyes fixed on her
mothers tanning-booth brown
face and toner-blond curls. Had
she lost the house in another
half-assed financial scheme? Had
she lost her job? Was the car
being repossessed? Was dad late
with the child support payments
that always seemed so much at
issue? Steph felt her stomach
beginning to tense as she focused
on her mothers words, for a split
second imagining that the rush
of crap that had followed her
mom her whole life all started
out just like this. When she was
a seventeen year-old high school
cheerleader and had to tell her
own folks that she was pregnant
with Steph, she probably started out I want to talk to you
about something thats going on
if she bothered to tell them anything at all.
Mary paused for a moment as
she trained her eyes on Stephs,
trying to gauge the proper route
to continue. Finding no clue, she
simply walked nonchalantly into
it.
Baby, listen I think Randys
going to come and stay with us
for a while.
Steph was blank. Her mother
pushed a hand back through her
hair, and brought it down to the
table to fold the shining white
nail tips together with those of
her other hand.
Randy who? Steph asked,
still bewildered.
Randy who?, her mom
scoffed. You know Randy
who, Mary half laughed.
Stephs face tensed as she slowly
shook her head from side to side.
Randy? She broke the sentence as she started to rise to
her feet. Mom, I dont know
any Randy. It was an honest
protest. After the first few boyfriends came and went when
she was younger, there wasnt
much point in getting attached
to one. Shed taken to ignoring
them, and on the mornings when
there was a strange vehicle in
the driveway, to getting up early
and getting out of the house
before voices and rustling could
be heard in her moms bedroom.
Mary narrowed her eyes and
held her palms out open.
You know Randy. Randy
Boxell? He was over here that
time a week or two ago and I
introduced you to him?, her
face was wide and open as she
nodded her head in assurance.
Steph looked away, her face still
tense, searching her memory for
a vision of moms latest.
Blond crew cut, older guy?
Steph managed, her face still
screwed into a question mark.
No, youre thinking of David.
Randys the one with that beautiful black pickup with the four
doors? You know dark hair,
kind of long in the back. Hes the
contractor that was doing the
plumbing in our new building.
The description escaped
Steph, who leaned on her rump
against the kitchen sink, her
arms still crossed.
Anyway, Randys wife, that
little Mary looked up as
Steph and caught the sentence,
well, shes got their house up
in Liberty and shes got their
credit so screwed up Randy cant
even get an apartment anywhere
right now, so he really needs a
place to stay. I told him he could
stay here for a while until things
work out.
Steph stood silent, staring at
the edge of the table. It wasnt
so bad that her mom was bringing another man home shed
done it before, afterall the difference was that always before
Sasha would want to know all
about him. Was he cute? Was he
nice? Did Steph ever hear them
doing it? Did she think theyd
maybe get married? Was he a
guy Steph could see as her stepdad? They were questions which
only friends could ask Theyd
go on and on, and Steph would
answer, and pretty soon theyd
be giggling about him. And in the
course Sasha could free Steph
of the weight of it all. Her eyes
began to cloud at the thought
that without Sasha, there wasnt
anyone else. It was as though the
window in that wall which had
divided her from most other people for most of her life had been
closed, cutting off the air and the
light, and leaving her now completely alone with herself.
Itll all work out, baby, her
mother stood and slid an arm
around Steph, her skin cool and
clammy against Stephs neck.
Itll just be for a while, I promise.

2020 Richmond Free Fair results
The 2020 Richmond Free
Fair definitely had a different feel to it this year due to
COVID-19 and all of the activities and parade cancelled due
to the pandemic, but the true
meaning behind the fair is to
allow the kids that worked
so hard for the past year a
chance to show their animals
and earn the recognition they
deserve.

Minimal wheat harvest locally
GARNETT With wheat
harvest all but complete in
Anderson County for the year,
there wasnt much to speak of
either in acres or bushels.
The seasons crop was pretty
negligible says local industry
types. Not much was planted in
the way of acreage and the harvest was nothing to write home
about either.
We just didnt have much,
said Jim Mechnig with Valley
R Agri-Service in Garnett. I
think we only had four farmers
bring any in. The best we saw
was around 42 1/2 bushels (per
acre).
K-State Frontier District horticulture agent Ryan Schaub
said the meager plantings had

To our guests,
We are sorry to announce the temporary closure of the Dutch Country Cafe. We have been informed by the health department that one
of our employees has tested positive for COVID-19. The employee last
worked on July 11 and we plan to safely re-open on July 27 after
quarantining and deep cleaning of our restaurant.
We are taking this step out of an abundance of caution for our guests
and employees. During this time we will be monitoring our staff and
complying with government guidelines. The closure includes all
dine-in and carry-out business.
We appreciate your support and best wishes.
Please stay healthy during these trying times.

typical challenges.
Ive heard anywhere from
upper thirties to mid forties (in
yield), Schaub said. Of course
some had a little frost damage,
some had some hail damage and
didnt make that range but those
were only in pockets.
He said economics was clearly dictating crop choices locally.
Number of acres planted to
wheat has been on the low side
for a number of years now. Just
not enough profit there for the
farmers, he said. I mean take
4 dollar wheat times 40 bushel
an acre and you get $160 an
acre.. just not much there once
you pay for seed and fertilizer.
Better profit potential in corn
and beans.
The Kansas wheat harvest
began June 11 in south central
Kansas. In a press release, the
Kansas Wheat Commission
noted harvest yields this week
in various western Kansas
counties of 20 to 65 bushel per
acre.
