Vacant house fire investigated
State fire investigators look
into what caused a vacant
house to catch fire
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT State fire investigators are
looking into what caused a vacant house
to catch fire last week. The property, a
rental house that had been empty for
several months, was destroyed.
Garnett Fire Chief Pat Tate said the
fire was reported by a neighbor after 10
p.m. Thursday, Nov. 21, in the 400 block
of West Ninth Ave. It was engulfed in
flames when fire fighters arrived. Tate
praised fire fighters, who battled wintry
conditions including snow and 20 mph
north winds that blew flames 20 to 30
feet out of the house.
The house was owned by Donas
Fields, Westphalia, who used the house
as a rental property. The last tenants
moved out in February or March, Tate
said.
An investigator from the state fire
marshals office examined the gutted house Friday and was expected to
return Monday to conduct interviews of
people who may know something about
the incident. The cause of the fire has
not yet been determined, and the state
fire marshal has not yet determined
whether the fire was intentionally set.
However, Tate said early indications do
point to a suspicious cause.
Because no one lived at the property,
the only item inside the vacant house at
the time of the fire was an old refrigerator.

Police urge caution after
woman assaulted in car
On Trial:
Students Take Over
The Government
Man was hiding in back
seat of car, grabbed
woman who reached in
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT This time, it wasnt
an urban legend.
A Garnett woman was
attacked last week by a man
who was hiding in the back
seat of her car, according to a
report from the Garnett Police
Department. The woman was
not seriously injured and the
man fled. Police have issued a
description of the suspect and
asked for the publics help in
identifying him.
The incident also serves as a
reminder to always be careful
and aware of your surroundings, Police Chief Kevin Pekarek
said.
The attack took place a little
after 8:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 18,
south part of Garnett, according
to the police report. The woman
apparently was smoking a cigarette on her back porch for
about five or 10 minutes when
she realized she needed something from her vehicle. She
opened the drivers side door

City leaders look at
possible pool upgrades
Preliminary steps taken

Anderson County High School student Tate Hesse, front, gives expert witness testimony during a mock trial at the City/County
Government Day event Tuesday, Nov. 19, as mock judge Elizabeth Maycroft and Fourth Judicial District Magistrate Judge
Kevin Kimball listen to the case about an accident caused by distracted driving. The mock trial was one of several events organized by government students as a way to educate and involve students about the workings of city and county government.
Students also met with government employees about their jobs, and attended mock city and county commission meetings.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT For a backyard
pool, the Garnett Municipal
Swimming Pool does pretty well,
Phil Bures, recreation director
for the city, said. But theres
room for improvement, especially when it comes to competing with newer swimming pool
facilities within a half-hours
drive.
Weve got to be creative to
keep people in town, Bures
said. A lot of people who go
out-of-town to swim do it once
in a while, but most of the time
they want to stay here.
City leaders are taking preliminary steps to see if pool
upgrades, or even an entirely
new complex, is a feasible option
at some point. Bures and City
Manager Joyce Martin stressed
they are in the early stages of
looking at pool options, and it
likely would be several years, if
ever, before action is taken.

Jobless rate mostly holds steady this fall
State says small increase
in private-sector jobs
bodes well for economy
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Unemployment in the
local area and across the state
has pretty much held steady this
fall, dropping slightly between
September and October. Compared
to the same time last year, however, there has been little change
in unemployment rates across the
board.
Anderson County reported an
unemployment rate of 5.5 percent
in October. That translates to about
225 unemployed civilian work-
ers out of a labor pool of 4,091.
Octobers unemployment is about
a half-percentage point lower than
September, which had an unemployment rate of 6.1. However, compared to the same month last year,
Octobers unemployment rate was
the same.
Other area counties and the State
of Kansas reported similar numbers. The states unemployment
rate was 5.6 percent, down slightly
from 5.7 percent in September and
unchanged from October 2012.
State officials say thats good
news, and point to an increase in private sector jobs between September
and October. Since September,
Kansas gained 9,800 nonfarm jobs,
a 0.7 percent increase, and private
sector increased by 5,000 or 0.4 percent.
Six of the 11 major industries
in Kansas reported improvements
over the month. Increases were
greatest in government with 4,800
jobs, with the largest increase at the
local level. Education and health
services gained 2,400 and trade,
transportation and utilities grew by
2,300.
Nine of the 11 major industries
in Kansas reported growth over the
last 12 months. Gains were highest
in professional and business services with 8,000 jobs and financial
activities rose by 2,700,with increases throughout the sector. Leisure
and hospitality had an increase of

RECORD
ANDERSON COUNTY BOARD OF
COMMISSIONER NOVEMBER 12
Chairman Eugene Highberger called
the meeting of the Anderson County
Commission to order at 9:00 a.m. on
November 12 at the County Commission
Room. Attendance: Eugene Highberger,
Present: James K. Johnson, Present:
Jerry Howarter, Present. The pledge of
allegiance was recited. Minutes of the
previous meeting were read.
Road and Bridge
Lester Welsh, Road Supervisor,
met with the commission. Dan Harden,
Engineer, and Bill Brixey were also present. One of the utility companies did not
wait for an agreement to be signed but
went ahead and moved their utilities on
Mr. Brixeys property and cut the fence in
the process. The county will go out and
put in a temporary fence and will then put
in a permanent fence when the bridge is
completed. Bids for a motor grader were
presented. Foley Equipment and Murphy
Tractor presented bids. Commissioner
Howarter moved to accept bids as presented and table decision for one week.
Commissioner Howarter seconded.
Approved 3-0. Chad Gerhart, Mid States
Materials, met with the commission. He
has presented a quote for putting rock in
the Lone Elm quarry for the county. He
would like to put some money from this
year on what is owed if he has money
left at the end of the year. Commissioner
Johnson moved to approve purchasing 60,000 tons of rock. Commissioner
Howarter seconded. Approved 3-0.
Michelle Miller, Road Secretary, questioned the free house disposal at the
landfill. Commission stated the county
counselor is working on rules for the
free dumping, however, the free disposal has to be a house. Commissioner
Johnson moved to give Lester Welsh,
Road Supervisor, the authority to make
the final decision on the grader before
the week is out. Commissioner Howarter
seconded. Approved 3-0.
Extension District
Shannon Blocker and Nancy
Schuster, Extension, met with the
commission. Discussion was held on
Anderson County joining the Frontier
Extension District No. 11. Commissioner
Howarter moved to approve Resolution
2013,1112:1. Commissioner Johnson
seconded. Approved 3-0. Commissioner
Johnson moved to approve K-State and
Extension Office Space Agreement with
the Frontier District continuing to occupy
the current space allocated to the extension office with no rent to be charged.
This is a one year agreement and automatically renewable with a notice to
terminate to be given on July 1 one
year prior to the end of the agreement.
Commissioner Howarter seconded.
Approved 3-0.
Emergency Management
JD
Mersman,
Emergency
Management Director, met with the commission. He informed the commission he
has checked on the truck in Maryland
and reported that he had found out that
the electrical system has been beefed
up. The reason they are getting rid of the
truck is because they have a policy not
to use trucks over 20 years old. He has
offered $70,000 for the truck, however,
it has to go through several boards for
approval. He has received a bid from two
companies for the tanks for the trucks.
Since they have not bid the same type
of steel he will contact them to get them
to bid the same type.
Deputy/Jailer Wage Ranges
Commissioner Johnson moved to
approve the recommendation of the salary committee and set a salary range of
$13.31 to $16.29 per hour for uncertified
deputies and then a range of $13.81 to
$16.29 per hour for certified deputies.
Once a deputy becomes certified they
will be placed in the certified range and if
a deputy is hired who is already certified
they can be placed up to 25% up the
range. There will be one range for jailer
and they also can be place up to 25%
up the range depending on experience.
Anyone hired from this date forward
will follow this procedure. Commissioner
Howarter seconded. Approved 3-0.
Meeting adjourned at 11:37 a.m. due
to no further business.

that people will see coming to
the pool as a fun event as well
as a place to cool off and relax.

EDITORIAL
Its a very PETA Thanksgiving
A couple of weeks ago I got snookered into
taking my 10 year-old to see Free Birds, some
cartoon flick where two turkeys go back in time
to the first Thanksgiving and succeed in changing the holiday meal tradition to pizza instead of
turkey.
No, Im not kidding. Pizza. I wanted to see the
new Thor flick but you can imagine how that
debate went.
Truth is Id probably sit through a Terms of
Endearment marathon in order to get some of
that buttered movie popcorn. I dont know what it
is about me and movie theater popcorn, but at $11
for a large tub it may be the reason my kids dont
get to go to college.
So Im sitting there half paying attention over
the sound of my own intra-cranial munching and
it starts to dawn on me that Free Birds is really
just 2013s holiday season salvo in the animal
rights wars; another digital diversion wrought by
a society whose success and self-indulgence has
left it with precious little else to do other than to
worry about the feelings of the lab rats on which
science is testing our latest cancer drugs or the
bovine hanging in some meat processing plant
somewhere destined for a delicious brisket dish.
The funny thing is the flick more or less skirts
over the idea that the Pilgrims, depicted in the
movie of course as the intellectual equivalents
of kelp, are… whats the word… starving. Hmm…
starving humans vs. turkeys with personalities.
Never mind these are the people upon which our
entire American civilization depends and theyre
a stiff cold wind away from being snuffed from
existence. Such concerns pale in comparison to
the rights of a talking animated bird and his
guerilla followers. The chief hunter among the
humans the guy whos hunting skills may be
the only thing that saves the Pilgrims bacon (no
pun intended) after a season of crop failure, is
portrayed as some kind of Hannibal Lector in a
floppy hat.
Give me a break.
Theres a reason there was no PETA or MoveOn.
Org during those starvation years from 1620-1623
at the Plymouth Plantation, and it had little to
do with the fact that hemp sandals hadnt been
invented yet. According to Dr. Benjamin Powell,
Director of the Free Market Institute at Texas
Tech University…
…In 1620 Plymouth Plantation was founded with a system of communal property rights.
Food and supplies were held in common and
then distributed based on equality and need
as determined by Plantation officials. People
received the same rations whether or not they
contributed to producing the food, and residents
were forbidden from producing their own food.
Governor William Bradford, in his 1647 history, Of
Plymouth Plantation, wrote that this system was
found to breed much confusion and discontent
and retard much employment that would have
been to their benefit and comfort. The problem
was that young men, that were most able and fit
for labour, did repine that they should spend their
time and strength to work for other mens wives
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
and children without any recompense. Because
of the poor incentives, little food was produced.
Faced with potential starvation in the spring
of 1623, the colony decided to implement a new
economic system. Every family was assigned a
private parcel of land. They could then keep all
they grew for themselves, but now they alone
were responsible for feeding themselves. While
not a complete private property system, the move
away from communal ownership had dramatic
results…
This change, Bradford wrote, had very good
success, for it made all hands very industrious, so
as much more corn was planted than otherwise
would have been. Giving people economic incentives changed their behavior. Once the new system
of property rights was in place, the women now
went willingly into the field, and took their little
ones with them to set corn; which before would
allege weakness and inability…
Once the Pilgrims in the Plymouth Plantation
abandoned their communal economic system and
adopted one with greater individual property
rights, they never again faced the starvation and
food shortages of the first three years. It was only
after allowing greater property rights that they
could feast without worrying that famine was just
around the corner….
So it was on the conservative principles of
incentivization, solid agrarian practices and copious amounts of cooked animal flesh that our
nation was born quite contrary to the government control initiatives that PETA works for to
try to further its goals of controlling what you eat
based on feelings about animals.
The hard-learned lessons of conservative lifestyle, prompted by literal starvation in those early
days of our country, blossomed for us a modern
nation in which we are so unconcerned about
feeding ourselves that we can spend our time fretting about the feelings of turkeys.
Its funny because the same amazing meatfueled abundance that has helped give rise to this
phenomenal nation has also provided the ironic
largesse in which PETA and its band of nutrient
Nazis can thrive. For that level of success, I tolerate them; and most of all I give thanks.
Unless they eventually start telling me popcorn
has feelings. Then the kid gloves come off.

mean the free paper. It had a story

straight information. It was big news

its so important to put in about the people getting their homes and their properties foreclosed on. Dont we have some
better news in this town than peoples

Obama loses his cool – or at least the illusion of cool
Barack Obama is the coolest president
weve had since John F. Kennedy, at least
according to conventional standards for such
things. Obama has always been a brand as
much as a politician, one that has been perceived as sleek, smart and up to date.
Then along came Healthcare.gov. Its failure to launch is a signal event in the long
political battle over Obamacare and perhaps
an inflection point in the presidents image.
Its hard to maintain a sense of truly being
on the cutting edge of change when you cant
build a website.
Obamas cool was, in part, an artifact
of world-class marketing. Graphic designer
Michael Bierut writes in the book Designing
Obama (yes, theres such a book) of how
impressed he was watching Obama rallies
in 2008: The awe-inspiring part was the
way all the signs were faithfully, and beautifully, set in Hoefler & Frere-Joness typeface
Gotham. If only the folks at Health and
Human Services were consumed with such
attention to detail.
The Obama teams technological prowess
reinforced the sense that it owned the future.
Except it had no bearing on how the president
would or could run the government. Weve
now learned that the president doesnt know
how to make a government website work,
or know to check to see if its going to work.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
Neither he and I are technology geeks, Vice
President Joe Biden explained the other day.
When selling the prospective glories of his
website, President Obama compared it to
Travelocity and Amazon, leaders in a private
sector that is highly flexible and reactive and
where failure means extinction. Government
is nothing like that. It never has been and
never will be. It is plodding and bureaucratic,
beholden to political imperatives and often
stuck in practices that make no sense.
A presidential campaign can hire whomever it wants without taking account of procurement rules or any other bureaucratic
impediment. It is a private entity subject to
the laws of competition. It exists more in the
world of Travelocity than Healthcare.gov.
At the end of the day, the president has
been a dazzling frontman for what is, in
essence, the Department of Motor Vehicles.
He has created a glittering image of hope
and change that has little to do with a rumbling, ramshackle federal government that
is still largely built along mid-20th-century
lines. Instead of imbuing government with
his sense of cool, he has been left apologizing for a government failure that profoundly
runs against the zeitgeist.
We celebrate the Internet entrepreneurs
who can take an idea and, with pluck and
creativity, make it into a reality that we cant
live without. It is one of the ironies of the
Obama Era that the same kids whose lives
are defined by a dizzying array of endlessly
changing choices have voted for a president
invested in protecting a government that
embodies the opposite. It may be that after
five years, they are beginning to get a clue.
A new Quinnipiac poll shows young people
disapproving of the president 54 percent to 36
percent.
The image was that fine logo and typeface;
the reality is Healthcare.gov.

Review.
Great Aqueduct is great idea, great headache
Ever have one of those ideas so big and
complicated and distracting that you dont
notice the hamburgers burning on the grill?
Well, weve got one running around the
Statehouse: The concept of securing the
rights to millions of gallons of water from the
Missouri River that is the ragged northeast
border of Kansas and building a 340-mile long
aqueduct with more than a dozen pumping
stations to move the water to western Kansas
to inject into the shrinking Ogallala Aquifer.
Hows that for a project? First getting the
rights to the water, and then constructing a
gigantic aqueduct that would have most of
the world rethinking what great means.
Thats great as in the Great Pyramids,
which would become pretty nice pyramids,
or the Great Wall of China, which would be
demoted to a pretty cool wall those Chinese
guys built.
Almost too big to get your mind around…if
you spend most of your time in the Statehouse.
But the concept is one that ought to at least be
talked about.
Western Kansas, always dry, is seeing the
seminal underground water pool shrink…
which means less, and at some point, no
water for crops, for livestock, for drinking
and for flushing. Not right away, but in the
foreseeable future.
Weve preserved the aquifer as best we
can with laws regulating use of that vital
resource, but practically the aquifer is drying
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
out.
It could be recharged with water from the
Missouri River taken gingerly so as not to
hinder barge traffic on the Mississippi, but
with authority by the state claiming ownership rights to parts of that Missouri flow.
Boy, this idea goes a lot of ways…securing
the water rights to the giant multi-billion dollar construction project crossing more than
a dozen counties. But, can you imagine the
impact of securing water for western Kansas,
where water is the life blood of the region?
And, can you imagine more than a dozen
county commissions planning for rights-ofway for the aqueduct, the county roads and
state highways that will need bridges, and
how school buses get to the children and back
to schools?
How about…would those miles of aqueduct
banks (edges?) be the place youd like a home,
or will the aqueduct be deep enough that you
could boat, or maybe just kayak or canoe on
it?
Will eastern Kansans, and their legislators, see the advantage of keeping western
Kansas and its ag and meat-processing and
dairy industries growing? Or, are we pretty
sure that if Johnson County residents can get
enough water for their lattes that they wont
worry much if western Kansas farmers have
to fetch bottled water for their livestock?
Do you want the aqueduct to go through
your field, or beside the highway? Will someone decide to put up a restaurant or strip
joint beside the aqueduct?
Lots of things to think about. Lots of ways
for this idea to go.
It just better be decided before the
Legislature is reapportioned again…oh, and
watch the grill, please…

respect for the people who live around
the church. We cant go nowhere when

one of the things that makes Garnett our

Nov. 19, 1913
The jury decided in favor of
D.A. Mackey, of Welda, in his
suit with the Santa Fe, which
leaves him in possession of the
strip of land and well, which
were the subject of the controversy. Considering the big
reservoir the Santa Fe has for
the water station at Welda.,
the company ought not to feel
any great hardship to get along
without Mr. Mackeys well.
Theres a man at Greeley who
owns an auto and a dog. The
dog has been taught to guard
the car when the owner leaves
it, and nobody else is allowed
to get into the car. The owner
of the car also has a pretty
daughter. A few evenings go, a
nice young man, who also owns
a car) drove up to the young
ladys home to spend the evening, leaving his car at the front
gate. Along about 10 oclock, the
young man prepared to leave
but when he went to get into
this car, he found that the dog
had taken possession of it and
wouldnt let the young man in.
After pleading with the dog for
a while, to no avail, the young
man was compelled to go back
to the house and ask the owner
of the dog to let him have his
own car.

Girls receive blue ribbons, trophies
The Anderson County High
School Cheerleaders attended
the UCA Cheer Camp in El
Dorado from June 24 to June 27.
It was a full camp with 19 other
schools and about 450 in attendance. The girls did a great job
at camp. There were 6 new girls
added to the squad this year,
so it is usually a challenge to
teach so much new material
along with stunting technique
in such a short amount of time.
All of the girls stepped up and
came back from camp with
many awards, trophies, and
a wonderful camp experience
they will always remember.
The girls practiced all
of May and June on a Home
Pom routine choreographed
by Tavia Wittman. This routine is taken to camp and the
girls compete against the other
teams and their home pom
routines. Out of 19 teams the
Anderson County High School
Cheerleaders received all blues
on their routine. The girls also
performed our schools Fight
Song and received blue ribbons
as well. The Fight Song is not
used as a competition with the
other teams because it is considered a schools tradition and
we are evaluated only by the
UCA staff and given ideas on
improving the performance.
The girls worked very hard
at camp and still made time
for fun too. The second night
was a retro themed dance
party, where for an hour, the
girls dressed in their favorite
retro attire, played games, and
danced with the UCA staff. The
girls dressed in 80s attire and
won first place for best dressed.
The dance party really gives
the girls time to unwind so they
could prepare for day 3 of camp,
which is very stressful.
The UCA staff taught the
girls an Extreme Pom Routine
which we had to incorporate
five eight counts of our own
material into the routine. The
girls were also taught a cheer,
which we had to add a stunt,
poms, or signs into it as well.
These routines are taught in a
short amount of time. On top of
learning the evaluation material, the girls also are taught
cheers, dances, band dances,
sidelines, stunt technique and
safety. Only the Extreme Pom
Routine and Camp Cheer are
evaluated later that same day.
The evaluations tell you what
you need to correct in the routines. The girls had only a short
time to put the dance/pom routine together before their first
evaluation, and on a scale of
1-5 came back with all 5s on the
stunts we added into their routine. That evening the girls had
a short time to perfect the routines and be ready to perform
them for a final evaluation the
following day.
On the final evaluations the
girls received all blue ribbons
on their Extreme Pom Routine
and Camp Cheer, which is the
highest award given. This year
the camp did not have a camp
competition, instead they did a
Game Day evaluation. The girls
received all blues in this category as well as the Superior
Squad trophy.
The Anderson County High
School Cheerleaders also
received a Superior squad trophy on their Extreme Routine
and Camp Cheer along with
AD
2×2
all blue ribbons. They also
received a spirit stick each
night of camp, and were always
one of the first teams to be
called.
Tara Meyers and Jasmine
White also were awarded with
the Pin It Forward award. This
award is given to cheerleaders
by other cheerleaders at the
camp that show leadership and
a positive attitude throughout
the camp.
A few of the other awards the
girls earned were on the game
time fun, Madison Martin most
pushups, Kori Pitts most spirited, Erica Holman best joke.
While at camp the girls
learned new cheers, dances,
sidelines, band dances, and
stunts. and are looking forward
to performing in the upcoming
season.
Cheerleaders attending camp
were: Seniors: Co-Captain Tara
Meyers, Erica Holman, Juniors:
Co-Captain Tavia Wittman,
Bobbi Jo Rockers, Kori Pitts.
Sophomores: Bailey Whitcomb,
McKenzi
Huettenmueller.
Freshmen: Samantha Nickell,
Madison Martin, Jasmine
White, Darcie Maley, Tiffany
Mills.
The Anderson County
High School Cheerleaders are
coached by Trish Wittman.
