Fink illustrated,
authored and
co-published
the book, along
with the help of
local retired physician Dr. Robert Stevens
of Garnett. The book is currently
in its second printing.
An interview with Ed Fink to discover his story soon becomes intermingled
with those hes accumulated over the
years.
His earliest memory is of a scuffle between a Belgian immigrant,
Mr. Decenear, and old Mr. Frank
Kratzberg, a German, in Finks
fathers restaurant at Greeley, the day
word was received in 1914 that the
Kaisers army had invaded Belgium on
its trek to France. Fink was three years
old at the time, and remembers watching the fight from his three-wheeled
wooden tricycle before some other men
broke it up. Its the first story he ever
remembers telling.
Everett Fink was born in Greeley on
November 5, 1911. His father owned a
local telephone exchange and later a
restaurant before the f a.m.ily made the

And like the develo p.m.ent of folklore over the ages, much of Finks
material c a.m.e from conversation at
f a.m.ily gatherings through the years.
His f a.m.ily held a renown New Years
Day reunion every year, from which
many of these stories were told and
retold.
Perhaps one of his biggest influences, he says, was his great grandmother,
Katty Sutton, an early settler who
bore the first white child in Anderson
County, and who Fink remembers telling stories of settlers and Indians and
smoking her clay pipe while he and
other children sat in the doorway of her

Richmond fair holds tradition, community at its core
BY PAT VINING
SPECIAL TO THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND As the Richmond Free Fair nears its
100th anniversary in 2024, a look back over the past
years is truly a trip down memory lane. Gone are the
tents which, at one time, housed all the exhibits, the
animals being led in the parade, horse pulls, baseball
g a.m.es, pie-eating contests, elaborate flower shows
and more.
Now, f a.m.ilies can visit about how their grandparents, great-grandparents and even further back
enjoyed the Richmond Fair. Some f a.m.ilies can count
the fifth generation being part of the fair.
The fair and/or picnic was an on and off affair since
about 1910. But in 1925, thanks mostly to the efforts of
Colonel Quinn Kirkland, the fair was re-established
and has been held each year since.
Kirkland was fair president until he moved to
Ottawa and then Orie Higdon was president for several years. But it was a young John H. Roeckers who
had been secretary-treasurer since 1928 who made the
fair one of his highest priorities and continued to be
the guiding force until his death in 1983. In 1990 he was
inducted posthumously into the Kansas Fairs Hall of
F a.m.e.
Now, as some events are discontinued, new ones
are added and the fair continues to be at least three
days of fun, competition and socializing for folks of
all ages.
At one time the Catholic Ladies and Methodist
Ladies both had food stands and offered wide-ranging menus. Those are both just memories. Now the
Ruritans R.A.C.O. and the Library serve food.
The Silver Anniversary in 1949 was a big occasion
with Former Governor and then U. S. Senator Arthur
Capper and Governor Frank Carlson as special guests.
There were the fair queen and her court, the Santa Fe
mini-train, a few men with their pony carts or wagons
to haul kids around, a excellent parade of floats, other
special events, and as always, The Richmond City
Band leading the parade. The band was composed of
folks of all ages who had concerts on the lawn in the
summer, but their big event was the Richmond Fair.
In 1930 Senator Capper began a Ch a.m.pionship
Sweepstakes for the best 10 ears
of corn. The senator c a.m.e to
the fair that year and awarded
the first trophy to O. W. Welsh.
The last year for this prize was
1958 when Don Lickteig earned
the trophy.
The last year that a carnival was
held with the fair was 2007, said Sr.
Loretta Roeckers who has continued to keep detailed fair records
as her father did.
The Community Building, now
called Community Center, was
probably first used for the fair
in 1975. It was finished and used
for other events in the fall of 1974,
according to records kept by the
late Phyllis Rossman, but no one
is sure about the fair in August.

around noticing everything
that was going on. The priests
were hindering people from
going in, the money exchangers
not being fair, and the selling of
sacrificial animals at a large
profit. He was angry! If we just
look at the section of scripture
about the fig tree, it doesn't
seem to make much sense. But
we need to learn to look at the
scripture before and after, and
sometimes find other scripture
describing similiar things to
gain the correct context. When
Jesus cursed the fig tree, it was
a sign of what would happen
to Israel (and any of us) if we
do not repent and turn back to
God. When Jesus cursed the
tree, it wasn't even fig season.
Similarly, we don't know the
day or hour of Jesus' return, but
we must produce "fruit" (more
disciples) for his Kingdom. We
can learn from the fig tree: to
take notice (what sin do we
need to repent of), pray in faith
(God can move mountains if
you ask him to), produce fruit
(God wants to bring others
into His Kingdom). (Ref: Mark

OPINION
Dont believe the Lefts VTB lie
With the overturn of Roe v Wade the abortion lobby and its sycophants, just now taking a
water break from illegally protesting in front of
the homes of justices, are in a full-blown panic.
Their 49-year C a.m.paign of Terror against the
unborn is coming to an end.
Like all liberals If you like your health
plan, you can keep it…We have evidence of
collusion with Russia…The existential threat of
climate change…Putins price hike, etc. they
will lie when truth is their enemy. No different
with the Value Them Both a.m.endment to the
Kansas Constitution we will decide on August
2nd.
First things first: VTB WILL NOT BAN
ABORTION IN KANSAS.
Please dont fall for that lie. You will hear it
every day until Election Day.
VTB will only correct a stunning, politically-motivated, misreading of the state
Constitution by the six liberal judges on the
Kansas Supreme Court in 2019. They found a
right to abortion where none exists. Dont take
my word, read the document for yourself at
kssos.org.
Never is abortion mentioned.
Frankly, the fledgling territory had greater
concerns in 1859 than legalizing the killing
of the unborn like keeping themselves from
being decapitated by Missouri Ruffians trying
to sway their vote on entering the Union as a
slave state or a free one, and debating how to set
up a system of self-governance.
With Roe overturned, abortion is still not
banned in the United States. The issue will be
returned to the states for the people and their
elected representatives to decide. Some states
will quickly and joyfully approve the killing of
babies, and call it pro-choice. Some will outlaw it under any circumstance. Thats the way
our federal system federalism is supposed
to work. If youre under 90, youve rarely seen
it work that way. If youre under 50, you never
have.
Abortion was a state issue, with separate
laws until 1973, when another politically-motivated misreading of the U. S. Constitution,
this time, found a right to abortion tucked
inside a right to privacy. Problem is, neither
exists in the federal Constitution either. As
Casey Stengel used to say: You can look it up
(archives.gov)
Why all the hand-wringing, illegal protests,
and dystopian forecasts even attempted assassination of a Supreme Court justice on this
issue? For one reason, abortion is the beating heart of the modern Democratic Party.
GUEST EDITORIAL
DAVID HICKS, Guest Writer
Their candidates gets millions from Planned
Parenthood and other conspirators in the murder of the innocents. If youre right on abortion, all your other sins are forgiven. Womens
groups were silent about Bill Clintons shenanigans because he was with them on abortion. A
pro-life governor, Bob Casey of Pennsylvania,
was forbidden from speaking at the 1992 convention that nominated Clinton. Where was
#metoo and others on the Andrew Cuomo saga
last year? He was good on abortion, too.
The second reason is that liberals hate
democracy. Thats why they run to the courts to
get injunctions and judgements when the legislatures, and the people, wont bend to their will.
They dont want the rabble Hillarys Basket
of Deplorables, the majority deciding the
fates of their pet projects. What are they afraid
of? They know they are holding a losing hand.
Heres what the proposed a.m.endment says:
Because Kansans value both women and
children, the constitution of the state of Kansas
does not require government funding of abortion
and does not create or secure a right to abortion.
To the extent permitted by the constitution of the
United States, the people, through their elected
state representatives and state senators, may
pass laws regarding abortion, including, but not
limited to, laws that account for circumstances
of pregnancy resulting from rape or incest or
circumstances of necessity to save the life of the
mother.
Visit valuethemboth.com. Have a VTB representative speak to your organization or church.
Grill them on the a.m.endment. They have nothing to hide.
Just dont believe the lies.

I havent seen the liberals this upset since
Hillary lost. Maybe the unintended benefit to
this whole thing is theyll all move to the blue
states and leave the red states in droves.
We want to thank the city guys who hauled the
rock and spread it out on the west alley and the
parking lot. The Senior Center appreciates that
very much.
After watching this weeks city commission
meeting I am blown away. Has anyone watched
Mayor Gwin over the years? He micromanages and crosses lines, expecially when the
previous city manager was here. Mayor Gwin
throws his fits when he doesnt get his way.
Watched this happen multiple times at commission meetings like this one. He wouldnt even
even give commissioner Sheahan the time to
give his response to the topic being discussed
when Commissioner Cole was okay with it.
Comissioner is not the Sheahan is not the bully
here. Thank you mayor Gwin for telling the
public what was discussed in executive session.
Commission Sheahan didnt do that; you did
that when you wanted to shame him for his post
publicly. Commissioner Sheahan, thank you for
being the bigger person.
How nice. The appraisers office mouthpiece
knows how to run the city just like she knows
how to run everything else. I wonder if she typed
up her 10,000 word speech on county time or on
a county computer? Take your own advice lady,
stop trying to bully everyone. Nobody cares.
Young children should be trained to say, Youre
making me uncomfortable, or Im telling my
parents about this inappropriate conversation
whenever a teacher starts talking about their
sexual orientation or gender identity in the
classroom.
Only a fool would give up a weapon because the
government says it will protect them. The government cant even stop a telemarketer.
If Arlyn Briggs keeps up the good work, he probably can switch to the Democratic Party and get
elected as governor. Thank you.

High Court ruling deflates EPAs authority
The Supreme Courts ruling in West
Virginia v. the Environmental Protection
Agency, holding that the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) cannot remake the
U.S. energy sector without authorization from
Congress, returns power to the American
people instead of a bloated bureaucracy in
Washington, D.C. As an added benefit, it will
also prevent radical increases in energy costs
a welcome relief given 40-year high inflation.
The case arose from one of President
Barack Obamas attempts to bypass Congress.
In his first term, Obama tried to get Congress
to pass a cap-and-trade law to reduce carbon
emissions.
Obama candidly admitted that under
my plan of a cap-and-trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.
Unsurprisingly, supersizing energy bills was
unpopular with voters and their elected representatives. Thus, despite large Democratic
majorities in both houses of Congress, the
Senate never even voted on President Obamas
proposal. After the bill died, Obama ordered
the bureaucracy to gin up new regulations to
reduce carbon emissions on their own.
In 2015, the Obama Administrations EPA
followed through with their Clean Power Plan
(CPP). The Clean Air Act says power plants
must use the best system of emission reductions to hold down pollution. This provision
has long been interpreted to require individual power plants to use the best (feasible) technology to prevent pollution. The CPP
reinterpreted that provision to allow the EPA
to set statewide limits on carbon emissions.
These limits were virtually impossible for
fossil fuel power plants to achieve. The CPP
thus effectively capped carbon emissions from
fossil fuel power plants and pushed states to
subsidize alternative energy sources like wind
or solar.
The CPP rule was a big deal. The Obama
Administration estimated it was equivalent to
taking more than two-thirds of U.S. passenger
vehicles off the road. Cap-and-trade couldnt
get through Congress, but, with legal gymnastics, the EPA decided it could impose a version of cap-and-trade on its own. EPA wanted
to fundamentally reshape the energy market
while bypassing approval from voters elected
representatives.
Unfortunately, the federal government
often operates this way. When I ran the
Department of the Interior, I directed career
attorneys to list all the departments statutory
duties specifically regarding climate change.
There were only two: helping the Department
of Energy with a report and writing another
report on water issues. Nonetheless, leftist
Members of Congress would often call on the
Department to stop climate change! They
wanted the Interior to transform America
without their doing the hard work of developing a consensus in Congress to pass a law. I
would tell these Members of Congress to pass
their law, and when they did, I would faithfully execute it. The Obama Administrations
EPA was not so restrained.
During the Trump Administration, the
EPA replaced the CPP with a plan based
on the traditional understanding of the law.
Last year, a liberal panel of the D.C. Circuit
SEE EPA ON PAGE 8
No, the conservative justices didnt lie about Roe
The left simply lost the intellectual and
political fight over the direction of the
Supreme Court but cant bear to it admit it.
Progressives tell themselves instead that
theyve been undone by a series of dirty deeds,
including the alleged deceit of conservative
justices who lied to the U.S. Senate about their
commitment to preserving Roe v. Wade.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez believes that
impeachment proceedings should be in play.
What the perjury case against the justices
in the Dobbs majority lacks is any evidence of
assurances made under oath or otherwise that
they would vote to uphold a ruling of the court
that had, justly, been under withering assault
since it was handed down 50 years ago.
This shouldnt have been hard to figure out.
Any judge who considers himself or herself an
originalist was going to believe that Roe was
bad law because there wasnt remotely colorable warrant for it under the Constitution.
There might have been varying views on what
deference was owed to precedent, or other tactical questions; there wasnt any meaningful
disagreement on the core matter.
The dance that went on is that Democrats
would try to get conservative nominees to say
that Roe had been a precedent for a long time.
The nominees would agree, while not going
any further. Theyd often cite — correctly — the
refusal to comment on contested questions
going back to Ruth Bader Ginsbergs confirmation hearings.
Typical was an exchange between Sen.
Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota and Amy Coney
Barrett during her hearings. Klobuchar
pressed Barrett whether Roe was a super
precedent, or a ruling that no one thinks
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
is in play anymore. Barrett demurred, Im
answering a lot of questions about Roe, which
I think indicates that Roe doesnt fall in that
category.
This wasnt deception — it was clearly saying, if obliquely, that Roe was vulnerable to
challenge. Id prefer if nominees were less
lawyerly, but they are experts in subtle distinctions and the longstanding politicization
of the confirmation process puts a premium
on indirection.
Justice Brett Kavanaugh has been a particular target for post-Dobbs attack. Pro-choice
Republican Sen. Susan Collins told The New
York Times that she feels he mislead her in a
private meeting.
The Times story doesnt say that Collins
asked Kavanaugh directly if hed overturn
Roe — presumably for good reason. The senator would have known such a question
would have been highly improper. In fact, she
praised Neil Gorsuch during his 2017 confirmation for saying he would have left the room
if someone asked him for a commitment to
overturn Roe.
It is doubtful that Kavanaugh told Collins
anything in private that he didnt say in his
sworn public testimony as well. If he was playing some sort of double game, Collins should
have felt an obligation to call Kavanaugh out
on it. She didnt. In fact, she gladly voted for
him.
I t is true that in his hearings Kavanaugh
leaned heavily on the notion that Roe was
precedent and that it had been reaffirmed in
Casey, what he called a precedent on precedent. Yet, other supporters of Roe werent
inclined to overinterpret this. As Sen. Sheldon
Whitehouse of Rhode Island told Kavanaugh
at the outset of the hearings, Your own words
make clear you do not really believe Roe v.
Wade is settled law since the Court, as you
said, can always overrule its precedent.
In her dramatic floor statement supporting Kavanaughs nomination, Collins made
it clear that she also understood that his
commitment to precedent was not absolute. It
would give way, she explained, in those rare
circumstances where a decision is grievously
wrong or deeply inconsistent with the law.
The Court held in Dobbs that Roe was, indeed,
egregiously wrong. Collins might be disappointed, but she shouldnt feel ill-used.
Roe never deserved to be written into law
in the first place. The conservative justices
never said they would preserve it, and theyve
done their duty to the Constitution by finally
abandoning it.

I think its about time to
share a few photos of my finds.
These photos are from three
different sites Im currently
involved at.
The old vintage door lock
pictured above is damaged, but
if you look closely all the working parts of this lock are made
of brass encased in a cast iron
cover. This dates this lock in
the 1920s – 1930s.
To the right of the door lock
is a vintage Bankers Life &
Casualty Company Plastic
Token, known as the PEACE
OF MIND from the 1930s
Pictured on top are glass
stoppers. The large one most
likely came from some medicine bottle and the small fancy
decorated one from a perfume
or cologne bottle. They were
very popular in the latter 1800s
and early 1900s.
In the coming weeks I will
be sharing photos of my selected finds that I have been able to

sons house.
Summer afternoons in Greeley
would be filled with these stories at the Sutton home, and
occasionally embellished by
visiting neighbors who were
themselves veterans of the
Civil War. These were men
who had known Willi a.m.
Clark Quantrill, who had been
drafted from the fields near
Greeley to fight in the Union
Army and told to furnish their
own horses, and who had seen
fear in their neighbors eyes
at the news of John Browns
Pottawatomie Massacre.
Fact or Fiction?
Growing up in the 1920s and
1930s, Fink still had first-person access to many of the areas
early settlers and Civil War
veterans of those early days,
when Anderson County lay in
the heart of bleeding Kansas
and in the midst of the tinder
that would become the fl a.m.e
of the War Between The States.
When he was 14, his father
Earl sold the telephone
exchange at Greeley and moved
the f a.m.ily to Rantoul to a
larger phone operation. It was
at this point that Fink met his
teacher Ted Browning, an avid
history buff as well, who used
to invite Civil War veterans
to the school for history talks.
Clad in their period uniforms
and with the guns they carried
as part of the two great armies,
they were living, breathing historical resources that spurred
an interest which Fink would
carry to this day.
Throughout roughly the
next 50 years, Fink spent
countless hours listening to
the stories these people and
their decedents would tell and
committing them to memory.
He says many of the s a.m.e
stories told by different people bore too many similarities
not to be true, and that rough
independent confirmation has
been enough for him to come
to believe them as the only
real record of many of the local
areas happenings.
Eds f a.m.ily moved several
more times before coming to
Garnett in 1929. Ed worked
with his dad at a local feed store
and in 1937 learned the barber
trade, coming to own his own
shop in 1944. He retired in 1976,
having spread as much folklore
in those years as he did hair
tonic and aftershave. No matter where he was, it seemed,
he was always somewhere that
people were telling stories.
Pieces of the past
It would be hard to number the stories in Ed Finks
head, but at least 349 of them
are sketched into cartoon
form in his illustrated history of Anderson County. Each
panel is a scene which reflects
a story hed picked up over the
years. With a.m.azing detail,
Fink recounts stories of a man
who used to steal wood from a
neighbor, until that neighbor
got wise and slipped a stick of
dyn a.m.ite in a hollow log; of a
cattle ranch purchased south of
Garnett by a Mr. Howard and
Mr. Woodson, suspected alias
Jesse and Frank J a.m.es; and
of a South Side Garnett back
in the 1920s filled with bootleg
whiskey runners and houses of
ill repute on the south side of
the town square.
Fink took up cartooning at
the age of 20, and took correspondence from the W.L.
Evans School of Cartooning in
Evansville, Ind. His drawings
would eventually land him a
job sketching caricatures of
band members and entertainers on KFBI radio station in
Abilene.
I never was an artist, Fink
says, I could just draw some-
thing that was kind of funny
looking and make it look like
something.
Finks book recounts many
of the stories he says a lot of the
powers that be didnt necessarily want remembered about
the county stories of hangings, prostitutes, gangsters
and whiskey runners and the
like. During the compilation of
the 1936 History of Anderson
County, Kansas, by Harry
Johnson, a project on which
Fink assisted, he said he saw
Johnson keep throwing away
certain notes with information
on them.
I said, How come youre
throwing those things away?,
and he said, Why, theyll never
let me put that in there. The
organizers were local preachers, heads of lodges, etc. people of standing who wanted
their county remembered in a
sugary light.
They said no one would want
to know about the J a.m.es
boys connection to the county, or about Charles Pretty
Boy Floyd coming to Garnett
to work harvest and ending up
driving truckloads of hay with
bootleg whiskey concealed
inside, or about a prostitute on
Garnetts seedy south side who
stole whiskey from the back
of a gangsters car and then bl
a.m.ed it on a delivery boy
who was actually Ed himself.
But apparently they did.
Years later, the first printing
of Fink and Stevens book sold
out, and the second printing is
still selling.
Future of Folklore
Sadly, many of the avenues
for the future of community
folklore seem to be disappearing. F a.m.ily reunions which
used to provide a medium to
convey these stories are now
weakened by the fact that
careers have spread f a.m.ilies throughout the country,
making get togethers more
rare. Television has replaced
the night time fireside chats
of our ancestors and visits
from neighbors as our modern source for entertainment.
Even the telephone, credited
with keeping us in touch over
great expanses, denies us the
lengthier conversations that
personal visits used to allow.
For whatever the reason, it
seems we just dont talk as
much these days.
Facts like those make people
like Ed Fink a community treasure.
with the publication of the resolution, saying city employees
shed talked to were now in
fear of their jobs if they became
Sheahans target. Robert Mills
said examples abounded of
the department not doing its
job well in the city parks and
at the rec center and that he
believed city employees were
not held to exacting standards.
Parks and Recreation Board
member Matt Stevenson said
Sheahans move was outside
conventionally accepted chain
of command and amounted to
unilateral overreach.
Jason Sjorlund commented
he believed both Sheahan and
Bures had value to the community and could find common
ground to approach the issue,
and volunteered to help mediate a resolution.
Mayor Greg Gwin called
Sheahans move a colossal
screw up, saying Sheahan violated the protocol of executive
session meetings because he
had first brought up the topic
of the resolution in a previous
executive session, then discussed the topic publicly.
Bures has not commented
on the topic publicly. He was
rec director in 2014 and helped
arrange a plan to move the
position of rec coordinator
which entailed running youth
sports programs into his position, which entailed administrative functions and oversaw
maintenance of parks, the city
rec center, swimming pool and
cemetery department. In 2019
Bures asked commissioners to
reinstate the rec coordinator
position to again take over running city sports programs.
In other business at the commissions regular meeting:
Commissioners received
an insurance rebate check of
some $28,700 from local EMC
representative
Kimberly
Robrahn for risk management
accomplishments.
Heard an update on the
Maple Street storm water project from Jason Hoskinson with
BG Consultants. The project
will entail doubling the storm
water disposal capacity from
4th Avenue to Redbud on
Maple Street. Hoskinson said
cost increases had brought the
project from an initial $1.4 million with a $1 million grant
from the Kansas Department
of Transportation to an estimated $1.6 million. He said the
design phase was near completed with anticipating bidding in
October, and a project date of
Spring/Summer 2023.

in some quarter both for and
against the premise regarding the citys rec department
and its programs. After public
responses began to the post,
Sheahan last month announced
he would not submit the resolution but it remained posted
on his official commissioner
Facebook page.
Residents and non-residents
weighed in at the meeting about
the state of the citys rec center and programs. Rural resident and former rec program
coach Janon Gordon accused
Sheahan of fear mongering
according to the guidelines
and Emersons criminal
record. Emerson asserted in
the agreement he had no previous criminal record, and
the Reviews check of Kansas
regional court records yields
no other previous actions
against him.
Last February Anderson
County District Judge Eric
Godderz denied a motion to
quash the initial February
2020 search warrant of
Emersons home which was
signed by Magistrate Judge
Kevin Kimball, on Emersons
allegation that Kimball could
not claim neutrality in signing the warrant because he
and Emerson had an extensive
sexual history. Godderz found
witness testimony unsubstantiated and the defense produced no credible evidence to
confirm the allegation.
Emersons plea came on
the heels of a court notification by Anderson County
Attorney Elizabeth Oliver
that the prosecution planned
to use Emersons own statements made to Garnett Police
investigators as evidence in
the forthcoming trial originally set for August 29. According
to the probable cause affidavit
written by police investigators
to base the arrest warrant,
Emerson admitted to officers
both using and purchasing the
drug as well as dispensing it to
his house guests. The affidavit
says Emerson told officers he
never sold the drug, but provided it free to his guests.Most
of the original felony charges
stemmed from Emersons use
of a communication device a
cell phone to transact drug
deals.
Sentencing is set for August

quilt show as a new feature has many stories to tell
Open Doors welcomes
Almost everyone has collected something and whatever that something is can be

what youd like to share.
A variety of items makes

Open Doors was an idea
from Mary Hall who was
inspired by a Sunday sermon
by lay speaker Dennis Peters
who said, in some manner,
why shouldnt the church
(building) be used? This project, in its 18th year, enacts the
world-wide United Methodist
motto of Open Minds, Open
Hearts, Open Doors.

EPA…
FROM PAGE 4
Court of Appeals struck down
the Trump Administrations
rule and ruled that EPA could
impose cap-and-trade type policies.
The America First Policy
Institute filed an amicus brief,
arguing that the Court should
apply the major questions doctrine, which holds that agencies
cannot issue regulations that
have a major national impact
(such as the CPP) without clear
statutory authority. The Court
agreed, ruling it is not plausible that Congress gave EPA the
authority to adopt on its own
such a regulatory scheme
[a] decision of such magnitude
and consequence rests with
Congress itself, or an agency
acting pursuant to a clear delegation from that representative body. In other words, creatively reinterpreting the law
to discover sweeping grants of
previously unknown authority
doesnt cut it.
This is great news for
everyone who pays electricity
bills, especially lower-income
Americans, small businesses,
and seniors on fixed incomes.
The Biden administrations
EPA is drafting a cap-andtrade type rule that goes even
further than Obamas. Under
the Biden Administrations
rule, electricity rates would
necessarily skyrocket. The
Courts ruling means the
Biden Administration can only
impose such regulations if
Congress votes for them.
The ruling is even better
news for American democracy. The Supreme Courts decision returns power to the people. It means that the people
make the rules through their
elected representatives not
federal bureaucrats. Agency
officials do not stand for election. They have no democratic
mandate to impose sweeping
societal changes unilaterally.
The Courts application of the
major questions doctrine protects individuals, businesses,
and others from agencies that
act without legal authority.
That authority rests with the
peoples elected representatives in Congress.
Unsurprisingly,
the
American people agree. Recent
polling by Scott Rasmussen
shows that by a 42% to 31%
margin, Americans trust voters and their elected representatives more than government
agencies and policy experts to
establish major regulations.
A plurality of Americans also
believes the EPA should need
approval from Congress before
issuing regulations limiting
greenhouse gasses.
The Courts decision returns
governing authority to the
American people. This ruling
protects democracy not to
mention Americans coping
with soaring energy bills.

Institutes Center for American

A Quilt Show will be a new
feature of Open Doors at the
United Methodist Church the
three evenings of the fair.
Open Doors will include
hobbies, collections, and special things as usual, said United

Cathy Parsons, but this year a
Quilt Show will be added. The
quilts will be arranged in the
sanctuary and other displays
will be in Fellowship Hall.
The centerpiece quilt will be
one made by Carol Reekie in
memory of Bill Moore who lost
his life in the Viet Nam War.
Another special display will
be six quilts Agnes Brockus

on quilt racks.
Why not bring that special

Presentation explores the history and Lake Garnett Grand Prix memorabilia
impact of community-owned carnivals on display at the Garnett Public Library
The Garnett Public Library
will host What a Ride!
Rural
Community-Owned
Carnivals, a presentation and
discussion by Erika Nelson
on Wednesday, July 13th, 2022
at 10:00AM at Garnett Public
Library in the Archer Room.
Members of the community are
invited to attend the free program. Contact the library at
785-448-3388 for more information. The program is made possible by Humanities Kansas.
Every 2nd Wednesday of
the month the Garnett Public
Library hosts a gathering
to discuss the past called,
Remember When. This
month we will be hosting a
speaker.
Across Kansas, late summer
brings county fair season and
all the fun that goes along with
it. But what happens when the
carnival stops coming? These
community connectors have
largely gone by the wayside
due to economic challenges,
but some counties have united
to host community-owned car-
nivals. This talk will delve into
the history of the carnival in
Kansas, and the recent herculean efforts by small, rural communities to keep this tradition
alive and thriving.
Erika Nelson is an independent artist, educator, and
director of the World's Largest
Things, Inc. Her research interests include roadside attractions and outsider art environments. She explores the back
roads of the United States in
search of the odd and unique
in her mobile museum, the
World's Largest Collection of
the World's Smallest Versions
of the World's Largest Things.
What a Ride! Rural
Community-Owned Carnivals
is part of Humanities Kansas's
Speakers Bureau, featuring
humanities-based presentations designed to share stories
that inspire, spark conversations that inform, and generate

Now on display in the West
Gallery at the Garnett Public
Library is a collection of Lake
Garnett Grand Prix memorabilia. The items are from the
collection of Tracy Modlin,
long time Garnett resident.
Tracy has been acquiring his
collection since the late 1970s.
He purchased most of the
items at auctions and sales.
Friends and family help out
too. The photographs of the
racers and crews will take all
Garnett residents back to such
an exciting time in Garnett.
Included in the exhibit are
several programs and magazines featuring the races. An
object of special interest, is
a spent gas canister used by
the police to help break up
the rioters! You will also see
the pit passes used by Race
Doctors Robert and Mildred
Julius Stevens. The special
jacket one of the doctors wore
is also on display. Garnett

men, Bill Graham and Chub
Hughes, on water patrol.
