Anti-wind farm group complains about vandalism
Signs damaged as group
ramps up opposition effort;
Calpine unaware of damage
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – The debate over a proposed wind farm in Anderson County
is heating up, with accusations of vandalism and theft from the leader of a
group opposed to the project.
Mike Burns, one of the leading
organizers of Landowners Against
Windfarms, said someone damaged
a large vinyl sign that read No
Windmills on property he owns on
Tennessee Road between 1400 and 1500
roads sometime overnight between
May 17 and 18. There was no severe
weather overnight that could have
damaged the sign. And on Monday,
May 23, the same property again was
vandalized, with someone apparently
opening a gate and letting loose cattle
kept on the land.
In addition to those incidents, several smaller No Windmills yard
signs have been stolen from property
belonging to other opponents from
throughout the county, Burns said.
Burns said Monday he hasnt yet
reported the incidents to local law
enforcement, but plans to file such a
report.
Calpine Corporation, the Texasbased company seeking to build the
wind farm, and its officials say they
have no knowledge about the reported
vandalism and do not condone such
behavior, according to Chris Stanton,
senior development associate.
The incidents come on the heels of
an organized effort to raise awareness
about the proposed wind farm project,
which was announced last fall, and to
block its construction.
Calpine late last year proposed
building a wind farm east of Greeley
and Garnett on a ridge that would
roughly parallel U.S. 169. Company

This vinyl sign on Tennessee Road between 1400 and 1500 roads appears to
have been vandalized, owner Mike Burns said. The sign was fine when he saw
it the evening of May 17, but was found inexplicably torn early the next morning.

BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW

part-time in
law enforcement
for
the
City

Run stopped at Garnett Elementary School Tuesday, May 17. The
Peace Run is a global relay that began in 1987 and has traversed
more than 100 nations to promote international friendship and
understanding.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT- If you feel compelled to make a difference
in your community, state or
nation by running for public
office, you have about a week
left to file.
The deadline to file for
the Nov. 8 election is noon
Wednesday, June 1, at the
Anderson County Clerks office
at the courthouse in downtown
Garnett. Because its a presidential election year, turnout
is expected to be higher.
All elected county officials
are up for election, as well as
the grassroots positions like
township treasurers and township trustees, and Democrat
and Republican county committee precinct positions. The
City of Garnett, for what is
believed to be the first time,
will elect a commissioner in
the fall rather than in spring
elections. School board races
also will move to fall elections,
but they will take place in
odd-numbered years.
With just a little more than a
week left to file, only two local
races so far are contested.
Three people have filed
for a seat on the Garnett City
Commission, which is currently held by Greg Gwin, who has
not filed and has not publicly announced his intentions.
Those who have filed for the
seat are Travis Wilson, Paula
Scott and Chris Kanawyer.
The county clerks race so far
also has three people vying for
the post, with two Republicans
setting up an August primary. Incumbent clerk Phyllis
Gettler is the Democratic
candidate for the position.
Republican candidates include
Jim Johnson, retired Anderson
County Hospital administrator
from 1988 to 1998, and District
1 county commissioner from
2010 to 2014; facing Johnson in
August will be Julie Heck, a
political newcomer who works
for the Franklin County Clerks
Office.
Other election filings that so
far are uncontested include:
Dave Pracht of Westphalia
has
filed
for
County
Commission Dist. 3, currently
held by Eugene Highberger of
Westphalia.

Permanent Advance voting is allowed if
the voter has a permanent physical disability or illness. After receiving a Permanent

maintained in the County Clerks office and
these voters are mailed a ballot in each election in which they are authorized to vote.
When voting by mail the voter will receive an

Enclosed they will find their ballot(s), instructions for voting by mail, and an envelope to
return their ballots to the County Election Office. The back of the return envelope MUST
be signed by the voter for their ballot to be

which had a rate of 5.0.
Despite
the
decrease,
Anderson County had the lowest drop in unemployment compared to surrounding counties while Linn County had
the most significant decrease.
When compared to other area
counties, Anderson Countys
jobless rate falls roughly in
the middle of the pack; Linn
County typically has the
highest unemployment, and
Franklin and Miami counties
the lowest.
The rates for other area
counties were:
Allen County, 4.7 percent
in April; 5.7 percent in March;
4.9 percent in April 2015.
Coffey County, 4.7 percent
in April; 5.6 percent in March;
4.7 percent in April 2015.
Franklin County, 3.3 percent in April; 4.2 percent in

Linn County, 5.0 percent in
April; 6.6 percent in March; 6.3
percent in April 2015.
Miami County, 3.4 percent
in April; 4.2 percent in March;
4.4 percent in April 2015.
Statewide, unemployment
was 3.8 percent, down from 3.9
percent in March and from 4.2
percent in April 2015.
The preliminary seasonally
adjusted job estimates from the
Kansas Department of Labor
and Bureau of Labor Statistics
indicate Kansas nonfarm jobs
decreased by 3,700 from March.
Since last month, Kansas private sector jobs decreased by
3,000. The largest private sector
over the month job decrease
was in Leisure and Hospitality.
Over the year, Kansas lost
600 seasonally adjusted total
nonfarm jobs. Kansas gained
800 private sector jobs since
April 2015.
Kansas
not
seasonally adjusted nonfarm jobs
decreased by 2,900, a 0.2 percent decrease since April 2015.
Not seasonally adjusted figures show Kansas lost 1,600
private sector jobs since last
year, or 0.1 percent. The state
gained 9,100 total not seasonally adjusted nonfarm jobs over
the month, or 0.7 percent. Since
March, not seasonally adjusted
private sector jobs increased
by 10,000, or 0.9 percent.
Private sector job estimates showed a decline
since last April, said Emilie

WIND FARM
Notice of third quarter county funds
FROM PAGE 1A
(Published in The Anderson County Review, Tuesday, May 24, 2016)
officials say the proposed project would generate about 200
megawatts of power, enough to
power more than 50,000 homes.
Its expected Calpine would
need to construct between 80 to
100 turbines that stretch about
500 feet into the sky; the number of turbines needed varies
depending on the capacity of
the equipment.
Wind farm supporters point
to the economic benefits of such
projects, such as $6,000 or more
annual long-term lease payments to property holders, an
economic boost in terms of construction and jobs, improved
county roads and a promised
$500,000 annual payment in
lieu of property taxes to the
county since wind farms are
exempt from property taxes.
The company said it has
leased more than 6,000 acres
from property owners and has
taken initial steps to ensure
it can deliver electrical power
in the area. It also has erected weather monitoring equipment to test wind speeds over
an extended period of time.
But critics say wind farms
are a blight on the landscape
and to property values, a noise
disturbance and a threat to
wildlife. They say any environmental or cost-saving advantage is offset by a continued
reliance on coal and other types
of power plants when the wind
doesnt blow, and on federal
tax credits for companies that
build them, and purchase mandates that force distributors to
buy wind farm power at higher
than market rates.
Locally,
those
critics have organized into
the Landowners Against
Windmills group, with Burns
and Review publisher Dane
Hicks among the more vocal
public opponents. They say
more than 350 anti-windmill
yard signs have been distributed, and 113 people have liked
the Facebook site Landowners
Against Windmills.
The yard signs are available
at AuBurn Corporate office at
259 West Park Road in Garnett
or at Garnett Publishing, 112
W. Sixth Ave.
Burns said more than a dozen
landowners met Monday, May
16, with the Anderson County
Planning and Zoning committee to talk about the project. Ultimately, the Anderson
County Commission will need
to issue special-use permits to
allow for construction of the
turbines.
We need to be open publicly
about our stance and be there
early and often, Burns said.

Jones protects cowards
for political open season
Want to donate secret money, attack candidates or issues while cloaking your identity,
scoff at legally-required disclosure forms and
otherwise break election laws in Anderson
County in the upcoming primary and general
elections of 2016?
Have at it.
If history is any indicator, not only will you
not be prosecuted by county attorney Brandon
Jones, but hell allow you to keep your identity
secret as well.
Jones history of complicity with election
law violators in the county places a cloud over
both local elections and his own candidacy for
re-election this coming season. It is a dismal
reality in Anderson County, laws dont really
apply and justice, intended to be granted to us
as the public according to those laws, really
doesnt matter. Worse yet, the official charged
with upholding them is mysteriously on the
other side.
That cloud goes back to the Anderson County
Hospital bond vote in 2013, when opponents
produced a secret mailer and telephone robocall campaign against the bond issue which
eventually by some 130 votes constructed
the new $26 million facility in Garnett. The
mailer and automated, recorded calls lacked
any attribution statement This message
paid for by which is mandated by state and
federal law to accompany such political advocacy.
Through this newspapers investigation, we
as well as other hospital bond supporters supplied information and filed official complaints
with Jones office. Jones investigated, determined and interviewed the responsible party,
and then refused to file charges or to require
the individual to file the appropriate financial disclosure paperwork with the Anderson
County Clerks Office.
And the question remains: why? Why after
investing the effort to find the violator did
Jones suddenly go so cold, and why blatantly
disregard laws that require financial support
and the identity of political financiers to be
documented as part of the public record?
Kansas sets campaign finance laws for a
reason. Particularly in the case of a major

vote on public funding, the public deserves
to know who is on which side of the issue
and how much theyve contributed to support
their side. The public trust entitles Kansans to
know who supports candidates and political
movements, because associations in politics
are telling.
Rest assured, there is a reason Jones kept
this information secret. Was this person someone Jones owed a favor? Was something more
at risk if his/her identity was known? Was
there some advantage to be had by Jones or
this person from the failure of the bond issue?
The questions will continue to fester for years
to come.
One thing is certain: supporters of the hospital bond issue followed the laws and identified themselves proudly and publicly with the
conviction that their effort was beneficial for
the viability of their community. Some opponents, too, were glad to publicly argue their
own opposition via identifiable Facebook posts
and in other venues, unafraid to exhibit the
courage of their convictions as well.
But those most passionate about their opposition, who spent thousands of dollars in illegal advertising to try to sway voters, were and
are still too cowardly to claim responsibility.
And Brandon Jones still provides them a safe
haven from the public eye from which they
may act in the future.
At least for those Jones favors, its political
open season in Anderson County.

Think carefully
about wind farm
It has recently come to my attention that a
wind farm project is currently under consideration in Anderson County. As a resident of
southern Linn County, that is way too close for
comfort. My first experience with wind farms
colliding with my outdoor world came several
years ago as I was heading west of Salina, KS
with a friend on I-70. We were in route to our
annual dove hunt north of Ellsworth, KS. We
could scarcely believe our eyes. How could this
happen? As we later went outside our place of
lodging, the awful sight of the 300 foot high giant
turbines became even more depressing as they
now illuminated the night sky, like an airport
The Bathroom Putsch and Obamas transgender edict
The authors of The Federalist Papers
neglected to explain the fearsome powers that
inhere in the Dear Colleague letter under
our system of government.
It is the instrument by which middling
bureaucrats impose their will on the nation,
as the assistant secretary for civil rights at
the Department of Education and the principal deputy assistant attorney general for civil
rights at the Department of Justice just did in
the matter of transgender bathroom policy in
our schools and colleges.
The transgender edict is a perfect distillation of the Obama administrations centralizing reflex, highhanded unilateral rule
and burning desire to push the boundaries
of cultural change as far as practical in its
remaining time in office.
Its letter is backed by the implicit threat
of withdrawal of federal funds (a more appropriate salutation might have been To Whom
It Concerns — Or Else). The letter contends
that Title IX, the federal statute banning sex
discrimination in education, mandates its
preferred transgender policy.
Yet sex is different than gender identity
(as all viewers of I Am Cait are supposed to
know). If Congress had meant in 1972 — when
the current debate was unimaginable — to
cover discrimination against the transgendered in the statute, it would have included
language to that effect. Or it could have
amended the statute at any time. It didnt.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
But no matter. Now a letter from a couple of
federal mandarins carries as much practical
power as a law duly passed by Congress and
signed by the president. It is government by
epistle.
Transgender students deserve to be treated with respect, but its not unreasonable to
worry about having biologically male students in the same restroom as girls, and
vice versa. An obvious compromise is the
single-occupancy bathroom, which protects
transgender students from harassment and
addresses privacy concerns for other students.
This isnt good enough for the Obama
administration. Its diktat effectively requires
schools to allow boys identifying as girls into
girls bathrooms and locker rooms, as well as
girls dorm rooms and sports teams.
It is infused with a radical spirit. Gender
identity is fluid and entirely subjective, the
letter makes clear, referring to an individuals internal sense of gender. As soon as a
student notifies a school of his or her changing status, it will begin treating the student
consistent with the students gender identity. (Its easy to imagine scenarios for abuse
— if an unscrupulous womens college basketball team ever wants to topple the dominant
UConn program, it should find male players
who identify as female for a season.)
The sweep of the measure is symptomatic of the administrations moral fervor on
the issue. In announcing a lawsuit against
the state of North Carolina for an allegedly
retrograde bathroom law — i.e., under it,
people use facilities matching their birth sex
— Attorney General Loretta Lynch compared
the states action to Jim Crow and resistance
to Brown v. Board of Education.
By casting the issue as the next great civil-rights crusade, Lynch and the administration delegitimize the opposition, and prepare
the ground for treating traditional beliefs
about the immutability of sex as thought
crimes. Strong letter, no doubt, to follow.

Incumbent legislators get budget protection
Probably because there was no immediate
outroar, you got the feeling in the Statehouse
that the reaction was generally good for Gov.
Sam Brownbacks decision last week to sign
most of the budget bill and take the state revenue
shortages out of care for the states ill and poor.
What?
Yes, his choices were clearly to either cut
funding to schools by more than $50 million in
the upcoming school year or take roughly the
same amount from state programs that provide
health care to Kansans without insurance, without much money, and who still need medical
care.
Cut spending on schools and you not only
get parents of all income levels angryand the
states education industry more politically active
in the upcoming elections in which the entire
House and Senate stand for re-electionbut you
get the friends, neighbors and grandparents of
those schoolchildren upset. And, a lot of those
folks vote both in primary and general elections.
Cut spending on health care for the poor who
need state assistance to maintain their health,
get their children checked before they head to
schools and suffer any manner of illness, and,
well, those folks dont vote in very high numbers.
Many Kansans who vote probably cant name
a friend or relative who depends on Medicaid
(given the catchy name KanCare in Kansas).
Now, that probably outlines pretty clearly
why the governor who isnt on the ballot this
year and is unlikely to be in the future chose
the health care of the poor for cuts to make the
budget balance, or at least appear on paper to
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
balance.
The Legislature, and its members who are
after another term or two, can say that they
defended K-12 education with their proviso in the
budget bill that the governor would have had to
line-item veto in order to cut funding for schools,
and they won that showdown.
But there wasnt anything specific about cutting funds for health care for the poor in the
budget bill, and the governor wont face any
challenges for those cuts which he could make
with his own budgetary authority and without
legislative oversight.
So, while you are campaigning, you can say
youve saved schools a roughly 4 percent reduction in funds, instead allowing without much
rancor that same amount of cuts to programs for
health care for the poor, who you might or might
not bump into at the lottery ticket window or gas
pump or garage sale or grocery store.
So at least for conservatives, mostly
Republicans, though not all of them, the governor has allowed them to talk about continuing
to finance schools, and if on any doorstep in the
state any candidate is asked about health care for
the poor, they can say, yes, they heard something
about that, but they didnt do it.
Exceptof course, if someone behind the
screen door wants to know why there wasnt
enough money to take care of schools and the
poor, we imagine, a smart campaigner will
depending on the neighborhooddivert the discussion to low taxes or maybe to the renaming
of a local highway off-ramp after a well-known
constituent.
So thats why there wasnt a lot of talk about
the governors signing of the budget into law. No
telling which way that discussion would go, and
in an election year, even Democrats and moderate Republicans are unlikely to pledge to support
tax increases next session to make sure that the
K-12/health care for the poor decision doesnt
crop up again.
Now, its just waiting for the monthly state
revenue figures to roll in and we learn whether
the governor has pared that health care for the
poor line item enough to make it to July 1, when
a whole new fiscal year opens.

with no end. With each of my four journeys a
year to central and western Kansas to enjoy the
great outdoors with my sons, buddies, and bird
dogs, the situation worsens. Studies seem to be a
dime a dozen, but most conclude that wind farms
have a very negative impact on prairie chickens,
one of our fabulous native species already in
decline. And Im betting that our federal government, were
it not subsidizing wind farms
to the tune of
billions of dollars, would be
decrying losses incurred by the bald and golden
eagle and many species of waterfowl and other
migratory birds.
Prior to retiring from my position as Project
Manager for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
at Melvern Lake, I made the trek from our home
at the lake project to our farm in Linn County
an average of 33 times of year over the span
of 21 years. That totals 693 trips-each way. I
knew every fence post and farm house on K-31,
and thoroughly enjoyed my journey through
Coffey and Anderson Counties. In December,
2015, I went to Melvern for the projects annual
Christmas party and traveled my old path along
the outskirts of Waverly. I was stunned, absolutely stunned. I slowed way down, even pulling
off the road at one point, and asked myself, how
could people ruin their own countryside like
this? Ill never pass that way again.
Generally, my belief is that if people own
land, they have the right to do with it as they
please-within limits. But, if your farming or
ranching practices lead to soil erosion or some
form of pollution that negatively impacts my
property, that is wrong. Its not being a responsible neighbor. Likewise, if you erect a 300 foot
high conglomerate of wind turbines that destroys
my view of the stars, the moon, the sunrise and
sunset for many miles, that too is wrong. Let
me say here, I view individually-owned turbines
supplying energy to a residence, farm or ranch
totally differently. Bottom line-I dont think this
argument is all that complicated. Its simply the
Golden Rule.

I want to thank the City of Garnett Recreation
Department, specifically Phil Bures and Tyler
Wolken. Without their dedication and selflessness the 4A Regional Softball games on the evening of Thursday, May 19 would not have been
possible. They spent the majority of their work
day raking, dragging, and everything within
their power to make the field playable and safe
for participants. Then once they had the field
prepared they remained at the fields for the
entire evening continuing to work the field
between games and innings. Throughout the

Fairview School was built in
1870 on land given by Leander
Putnam for that purpose. It was
used until W. Scipio School
was built in 1905. Then, it was
moved to a farm and eventually
torn down in 1922. Roeckers is

answered with 5 runs in the

prove to be too much to overcome.
We did hit the ball well and

Alley stated.
Burlingtons timely hitting

The Anderson County
Historical Society met at the
country home of Mr. and Mrs.
David Theis, May 12th for a
tour of a 1908 beam and peg
barn, along with extensive collection of farm tools. Davids
collection began in 2004 when
his brother gave him a hay
carrier from one of his barns
near Leavenworth, KS. He
became intrigued by the types
of tools and equipment available to pioneer farmers, and
has developed an appreciation
for their labor intensive work.
This interest led to his growing
collection.
During the mid 1800s, when
this area was first settled, farmers had to store their cut hay
in large piles outdoors. When
the hay carrier was invented
in 1860 it allowed hay to be
handled and moved. Large
hay barns sprang up across the
prairie, and were used to store
the hay harvest in their lofts.
Davids goal is to collect and
display 100 hay carriers.
As his collection of tools
grew, he began to need additional display space. He searched
for a barn in Anderson County
that could be moved to his
property, but was unsuccessful. Eventually, in November
2013 he purchased a 1908 beam
and peg construction barn near
Winchester, KS, about 12 miles
from where he grew up. The
dismantling was completed in
3 days with the assistance of
their son Chris and LaVern
Keim. Each piece was labeled
and moved to their farm. In
July 2014 they began to reassemble the barn on a foundation prepared in advance. The
barn was originally 36 by 40,
with 18 foot sidewalls to the
roof line. It was reassembled as
a 30 by 30 structure, complete
with two hay mows, grainery,
milking stantion, horse stall,
and hay carrier system displays. David showed documentation pictures as he described
the moving process.
The group then toured the
barn and farm tool displays.
David, his brother Edmund,
and son Chris answered questions about the moving and
re-construction process, as well
as how the antique tools were

We are as sheep
without a shepherd
In Matthew chapter 9 Jesus
is going about healing. We
read, Jesus went through all
the towns and villages, teaching
in their synagogues, preaching
the good news of the kingdom
and healing every disease and
sickness. When he saw the
crowds, he had compassion
on them, because they were
harassed and helpless, like
sheep without a shepherd. By
nature sheep are helpless creatures. They depend on shepherds to lead them to water
and to pasture and to fight off
wild beasts. Shepherds always
led their flocks and even a
large flock could be handled
fairly easily be one shepherd.
Typically the shepherd would
lead the sheep out of the sheepfold and the sheep would be
content to follow the shepherd
as they knew he would lead
them to pasture and water.
When Jesus saw the crowd
he referred to them as sheep
without a shepherd. The people flocked to Jesus to be healed
of their diseases and sicknesses or to have their loved ones
healed. Jesus knew that the
people were in dire need of
something besides healing of
their bodies. We read Jesus
had compassion or mercy on
the people which is the aspect
of Gods love which causes him
to help the miserable. Many
of the people were miserable
because they had broken Gods
law and many because of circumstances beyond their control.
When Jesus says in John
10:1, I am the good shepherd,
he linked his own divine nature
with one of the most ordinary
occupations in Israel. Jesus is
WEEKLY
DEVOTIONAL
By David Bilderback
still the good shepherd today.
But as we read the shepherd
leads the flock. Sheep follow
the shepherd, they cannot be
driven. They follow because
they trust the shepherd for
their pasture and water and
protection.
What keeps most of us from
following Jesus is the very reason the sheep follow the shepherd, trust or belief. To place
ones trust in Gods truth, one
takes God at this word and
trusts him for salvation. Just
as the sheep trust the shepherd we must trust the finished
work of Christ alone for salvation. Believers are those who
have made a personal decision
to trust God with their will as
well as their mind. Unless we
make this decision we are as
sheep without a shepherd.
