Watch
out for
deer
Fall rut brings deer,
reminders to drive
cautiously in area
BY VICKIE MOSS
GARNETT There are some
predictable staples that come
with fall in Kansas: the cool,
crisp air; the trick-or-treaters;
the harvest of fall crops.
And deer. Specifically, deer
that dart out onto the open roads
and highways, looking for love
but often on a collision course
with motorists.
But if you keep a few safety
precautions in mind, you can
minimize the chance of car-deer
accidents, Anderson Countys
Natural Resource Officer Josh
DeHoux said.
The breeding season is starting, so the does are being chased
around or pushed around by the
bucks, DeHoux said. Theyre
not concerned about roads.
Theyre just looking for a place
to run.
Although the local deer population took a hit from two years
of drought in 2011 and 2012, good
weather and growing conditions this year have helped deer
rebound to near-normal population levels, DeHoux said. And in
this part of Kansas, there are a
lot of deer.
Car-deer accidents are going
up right now. Ive heard of a
lot in the past month, DeHoux
said.
A review of accidents reported
to the Anderson County Sheirffs
Department also shows a sharp
increase in car-deer wrecks over
the past month, compared to
previous months. The Kansas
Department of Transportation
reports that 15 percent, or 8,695,
of all traffic crashes in Kansas
in 2012 involved deer. Two people
were killed and 322 were injured
in these crashes.
Motorists should be especially cautious about deer near
timberlines around sunrise and
sunset. But after dark, deer can
be anywhere, DeHoux warns.
Its our 150th
in 2015!

birthday bash.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GREELEY A group of Greeley
investors has begun the initial
stages of renovating a fire-ravaged building on the road to
reopening the historic Greeley
Caf.
The timeline for reopening
the restaurant is not yet known,
Pat Rockers, one of about a half
dozen people involved in the
project, said.
The building, formerly
owned by Stephanie Katzer and
now owned by Mike Rockers,
was heavily damaged by fire
in August of 2012 and has been
closed since. The caf had been
operated by Katzer and local
historians believe the business
had been in operation for about
140 years until its closing. Fire
investigators tracked the origin
of the fire to a trash can inside

the restaurant. A birthday party
was held the night before and a
smoldering candle might have
been thrown away with other
trash from the clean up.
Local historian Dorothy
Lickteig said the fire-damaged side of the building dates
to 1870 and is one of several
buildings constructed over a 20year period by a team of local
stone masons and developers.
The structure served under a
number of different owners and
proprietors as a drugstore and
caf and later a gift shop and
has been continuously occupied
for more than a century as one
of the mainstays of the Greeley
business community. The west
building was added into the
operation in the mid-1970s. The
history may make the Greeley
Caf the second oldest continuously operating business in the
county, behind The Anderson
County Review, whose roots
date to 1865. Lickteig said she

Recent case opens

GARNETT – Anderson County
commissioners are taking
another look at county policies on indigent funerals, after
a request from a local funeral
home to pay for services for a
woman who died without close
family and no means to pay for
funeral arrangements.
Reuben Feuerborn with

county commissioners how to

retrieve her remains. Feuerborn
recommended cremation, but
did not know who would be
responsible for the ashes or payment for the process. A federal
program the previously provided indigent funeral services
is no longer available, and the
cost likely will fall to the state
or county.
Feuerborn said the expenses
of an indigent funeral could
exceed thousands of dollars,
depending on whether the
deceased is cremated or buried and whether services are
held. He estimated cremation
typically costs $2,800, and cost

County extension office waiting
for word on consolidation request
Frontier District now
considering request
from local office
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Local officials
are waiting to hear if their
request to join a multi-county
Kansas State University extension district will be approved
or denied.
Anderson County commissioners gave approval recently for a request to join the
Frontier District, a consolidated Extension district formed in
2010 by departments in Osage
and Franklin counties. But the
countys request to join the
district must be approved by
leaders of the Frontier District,
which has asked for at least
a month or more to consider
whether they want to expand
to three counties. The Frontier
Districts board typically meets
once a month at the end of the
month.
If Frontier approves the
request, Anderson County
could join the district July 1.
By becoming part of the consolidated district, Anderson
County could benefit in several ways. The county would
have access to more resources
because the number of extension agents available would
expand to seven. The county
also could save money with tax
benefits and a different type of
funding system.
If the county joins the larger
district, its current nine-member extension executive board
and a 24-member council would
become advisory committees
without budgetary responsibilities. Four people from Anderson
County would be elected to the
district board to oversee management of district activities
and budget.
If the request is approved,
the county would be required to
allow 60 days as a protest period, during which time local
residents could voice concerns
about the change.
A representative of the
Frontier District was not available for comment this week.
Blocker said if Frontier rejects
the request from Anderson

Harold D. Thexton, 61, Colony,
passed away Saturday, October 19,
2013 at Kansas
City Hospice
House

Ranchers, where he and Marilyn
made many lifelong friends.
He was a dedicated employee
of Fort Worth Carrier Corporation
for more than 23 years. Harolds
generosity was well known by the
community; he rarely missed an
opportunity to help others.
Harold enjoyed spending time
with his family, hunting, golfing,
yard work, and anything keeping
him active outside.
Survivors include his wife,
Marilyn, three sons, Khris and wife
Rachel of Great Bend, Kansas; Kody
and wife Lacy of Emporia, Kansas;

possible the county could revisit the issue in later years, either
with Frontier or with a district
now forming between Miami
and Linn counties. Counties
can join a district only in July.
The consolidation of extension districts has become a
trend since the 1990s as counties
have sought to save money and
increase opportunities by combining resources. Staff members can specialize in particular
fields, spreading out responsibilities and increasing expertise. The districts are funded
similar to a school district, with
each county contributing from
its tax base. Independent extension offices rely on their own
county for funding.

he said.
If you cant avoid a collision
and end up killing the deer, its
possible to obtain a salvage tag
for the carcass. DeHoux said
about half of motorists in deervehicle wrecks choose to take
the carcass, but he warns that
you must obtain the salvage tag
before you attempt to move the
carcass. Its illegal to move a
deer without the tag; and even
if you just want the antlers from
a buck, you must take the entire
animal.
Salvage tags are available
from local sheriffs deputies,
Kansas Highway Patrol officers or Kansas Department of
Wildlife and Parks officers like
DeHoux.
Taking the animal is especially encouraged instead of
letting it sit on the side of the
road, DeHoux said. Most of
us know a hunter or someone
who can use the deer, even if we
dont want it. Getting some use

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, October 22, 2013
EDITORIAL
Real journalism and real bad journalism
Anyone who doubted the impact that us
archaic, washed-up, forgotten newspapers
still have, even in these days of social media
and the Internet and a generally intellectually disengaged popular culture, probably
missed what may be the best illustration of
the value of solid newspaper journalism that
Ive seen since the beginning of the most
recent decline of newspapers over the last
half dozen years or so.
I say most recent decline because the fall
of newspapers has been foretold for the past
100 years soon-to-be vanquished in each era
first by radio in the 1920s, then by television
in the 1950s, now by the Internet in the 2000s.
But while the 30 and under set preoccupies
itself with reality TV and photos of what they
had for breakfast posted on Facebook, newspapers are still on the job and people who
care about real information are still reading
them.
Nowhere was that more apparent than last
week when the Kansas City Star ran a Sunday
feature on a dead-in-the-water rape case from
2012 in Maryville, Mo., involving a 14 year-old
girl assaulted by a 17 year-old high school
football player. Charges against the attacker
were later dropped even though he admitted
having sex with the minor (the age of sexual
consent in Missouri is 17, 16 in Kansas). The
exhaustive newspaper story (confirmed by
copies of court documents held by the mother
of the victim, since court actions involving
minors are sealed in Missouri) went national
in hours thanks to the worldwide if often
fickle bullhorn of the Internet.
Bear in mind that there really are no
heroes in the story. The victim and her 13
year-old buddy sneaked out of her widowed
moms house to go partying with the wouldbe attacker and his friends the night of the
incident and got willfully, pathetically drunk
and had sex with the young men. It is the
law and their ages, not their behavior, which
makes them victims. The prosecutor last
week announced the investigation would be
reopened and who knows what the outcome
will be. But the fact remains that the law, and
justice, in the case has not been served.
Reporter Dugan Arnetts story in the Star
lit the firestorm that the story has become
across the country. It did so with facts and
an unvarnished retelling of the tale, its outcome and the unfinished business that now
defines it. It is an example of the veracity
and in-depth nature that came to define our
industry long ago and which continues to outdistance the digital bit and soundbyte nature
of other media. Most of what you read on the
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
Internet actually comes from print publication websites anyway, and without the core
or good reporting it doesnt matter how big a
bullhorn the Internet provides. We congratulate Arnett and the Star on this fine piece of
reporting.

And while Im on my judgmental highhorse about the state of journalism, did anybody ever actually catch what was at the root
of the governmental shutdown and debt limit
crisis which ended last week? Did any of the
breathless reporters with the perfect hair on
television ever actually explain the root of
the problems between the Snidely Whiplash
Republicans in their quest to tie the virtuous Nell Fenwick Democrats to the railroad
tracks?
I watched the whole charade pretty closely
and I never saw it once, so Ill provide it here.
And yes, it is an amazing amount of value for
a mere 88 a week subscription price.
Heres the deal: In our nation right now we
have separated into two camps with only a few
stragglers in between. In one, the Democrats
in their view are aghast that in this, the richest nation ever known to man, we still have
people living in poverty and doing without
regular meals and health care, without jobs,
without education programs for kids who
have trouble learning… on and on. Democrats
believe that the wealth of our nation should
be restructured so that the government can
ensure were all taken care of.
In the other camp are the Republicans,
who for so many of the Bob Dole years championed another set of priorities but pretty
much played along with the Democrats in the
spending of money on pet projects, special
programs, etc. the only difference being that
Republicans wanted government funding for
their own set of favorites and tax breaks for

I was shocked at the article about the misbehaving boy on the bus. He was not following the rules and was told to stop. The bus
driver did the right thing to pick him up
and remove him from the situation. Come
on parents, this kid should have been in
trouble at home too for causing trouble on
the bus. This is the root of our whiney, poor
me society. This kid will probably cause
more trouble in the future because he
already knows daddy will come to his rescue. If you dont follow the rules and dont
listen to your authority figures like bus
drivers, teachers, etc., youre going to be in
trouble. Its just a fact of life. Thank you.
Heres a bit of history for all the handwringers who pine for the good old days
of bi-partisanship, defined as both parties
agreeing to spend more of the money we
dont have. When the Food Stamp giveaway was dreamed up in the mid-1960s, it
was shepherded through the Congress by
George McGovern and our own iconic Bob
Dole, working across the aisle. Now half
the country is hooked on them. The USDA
advertises them, and social service agencies recruit new applicants. They cant give
them away fast enough. No thanks. When
our two parties join hands, theyre not lead-
The Obamacare rollout train wreck
Nancy Pelosi infamously said that we
had to pass Obamacare to find out whats
in it. The then-House speaker erroneously
assumed, evidently, that people would be able
to get onto the government-run exchanges
created by the law.
So far the laws implementation has
been as ugly as its passage. The rollout of
Obamacare has been so disastrous that even
Daily Show host Jon Stewart was plainly
mystified and unconvinced when Health and
Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius
came on his show the other day to offer reassurances.
Judging by the haphazard beginning -error messages have been the norm, and the
federal website has had to be taken offline
several times — youd guess that this was a
back-burner project for the Obama administration, or the start date for the exchanges
had been sprung on it a few weeks ago. Of
course, it is the presidents most cherished
initiative, and his team has had more than
three years to get the exchanges up and running.
Imagine the chaos if this were something
the administration cared about less. The conservative trope used to be that Americans
shouldnt want health care delivered by the
people who run the post office. The new
conservative trope could be that Americans
shouldnt want health care delivered by the
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
people who built HealthCare.gov.
A young man named Chad Henderson
achieved instant media celebrity by claiming
to have signed up for Obamacare on the federal exchange. So desperate were reporters to
find someone who had managed this unlikely
feat that they flocked to him for interviews
about his amazing experience — except even
he hadnt actually done it.
The website problems are the result, according to the administration, of overwhelming
volume. Experts disagree. CBS quoted a sympathetic programmer named Luke Chung
observing that it wasnt designed well, it
wasnt implemented well, and it looks like
nobody tested it.
The Washington Post cited two allies of the
administration who said they approached
White House officials this year to raise concerns that the federal exchange was not ready
to launch. In both cases, Obama officials
assured them there was no cause for alarm.
Presumably, the administration will eventually make its website work, since it doesnt
involve radically new technology. The more
fundamental question is whether the larger
project is sustainable when the exchanges
need young and healthy people to sign up, at
the same time they will have to pay sharply
more under Obamacare.
The San Jose (Calif.) Mercury News quoted
one Cindy Vinson, an Obamacare supporter,
who was disconcerted to learn that she will
have to pay $1,800 more a year for an individual policy. Of course, I want people to have
health care, she said. I just didnt realize I
would be the one who was going to pay for it
personally.
She might not have realized it because the
president of the United States never mentions it. In all his speeches about Obamacare,
he never quite gets around to the part about
some premiums going up, which for people
forced to pay more will probably be the most
salient feature of the law.
But hey, what possibly could go wrong?
Rich Lowry is editor of the National
Review.
Robots of Destruction: The GOP created a monster
Have you seen the reports about the newly
created Bionic Man, actually a robot assembled with a variety of state-of-the-art artificial
organs? They include mechanical kidneys and
a heart, as well as ear and eye parts. Of course,
there is no brain, which makes the story fascinating because they have re-created a member
of the United States Congress (except, the
machine has a heart).
The human cyborgs name might be Rep.
Gerry Mander, elected from a district newly
created by a GOP state legislature to provide
a safe haven for the party by lumping together
a population that reflects far-right thinking.
Voters choose the candidate who they believe
will go to Washington and do whatever it takes
to stand up against abortion and for guns.
What really unites this electorate is their divisive loathing of Barack Obama.
So the congressman doesnt have to worry
about the nationwide scorn heaped upon him
because he refuses to budge on positions that
threaten the countrys strength and standing
in the world. All he has to concern himself
with is the rigid hatred in his own Mander
precinct back home. In fact, the only thing he
has to be nervous about is being perceived as
a traitor to the cause if he succumbs to the
pressure to be reasonable. If that happened,
the tea party and other zealots would turn on

him. What the hard-liners giveth, the hard-liners taketh away.
So Gerry is one of a gang of militants who
are unmovable, unswayed by the evidence that
their positions could be ruinous. Their priority is sticking it to President Obama and, of
course, getting re-elected.
They couldnt care less about the suffering
they cause. If children go hungry, thats just
tough. If the sick cannot get treatment, theyre
on their own. The manipulators are not willing to allow their puppets, like Congressman
Mander, to pass laws that would regulate their
most egregious behavior or require them to
pay their fair share in taxes.
Suddenly, though, they realize that they
might have created a monster. Mander and
his other marauders have gotten uppity and
refuse to listen as the big-money people who
paid for their election tell them to back off.
This paralysis is bad for business, so the
wealthy actually are talking about looking for
new patsies. If that happens, maybe those safe
districts might not be so safe for the Manders
anymore. The voters would have to choose
between narrow economic interests and narrow-mindedness.
How sad this all is. The beautiful concepts
outlined in our Constitution have been distorted. Remember that most of them were the
product of compromise, which has been twisted into a pejorative. James Madison wrote:
You must enable the government to control
the governed and in the next place, oblige it to
control itself. Unfortunately, things are out
of control. Weve turned things over to those
select mindless automatons whose programming is limited. Push a button, and they utter
a sound bite. Another one will get them to try
to destroy Obamacare. Consequences dont
compute.
Congressman Gerry Manders robotic
adherence to the passions back home might
make him safe in his district, but his actions
make him a danger to America.

Hey, people of the family of the 102 year-old
man still out on the town, he pulled out in

my family would have sued. Some would,
Im sure. Then what would he do without his
money?
Hi, Ive been reading the comments about the
school not having bus routes in town and it
occurs to me that it was the awesome wisdom
of the school board that put both our schools
so far out of town in the first place. At least
100 years ago the school board had enough
sense to build schools in town where a good
portion of kids could walk to school instead
of needing a ride. Nowadays youve got even
fewer kids living out in the country, but no
bus routes in town? From the south end of
Garnett out to the new elementary school
is nearly two miles. Is this our fault? I think
not. You caused this problem, school board,
you fix it.
Id like to comment on two articles in your
forum. The person saying people are crying
about taking their kids across town, well
Greeleys a lot smaller town and if you live
clear out here on East Fourth and have to go
to the high school thats almost a couple of
miles and theres nowhere in Greeley that
kids walk two miles to school. Ought to get
your facts straight on that. Garnetts a lot
bigger and it would help to have a bus service
here. Also I agree about getting rid of the
thieves, but its really none of his business
about whos paying their bills.
Congratulations to the bus driver who solved
the problem on the bus with the kid who was
causing trouble. Sounds like he needed his
little head peeled.
I have a suggestion for all of you people in
business and others who are always being
asked to donate to local school groups and
organizations for drawing prizes and auctions and what not. If its a drawing or an
auction or something, be sure to donate an
item rather than cash. I suspect a lot of cash
donations for our local charities end up being
spent at Wally World for items and never do
any local businesses any good. Thanks.
Welcome to Garnett. As you pull off of 169 we
give all visitors a hearty welcome with a big
chuckhole in our beautiful asphalt pavement
just as we pull into the motel out east. What
a welcome.
You know, the post office is going broke and
theres not that many people thats buying
stamps anymore, so they just figure, hey,
well raise the price of stamps by 3 cents. It
kind of reminds me of our rec center down
here, its losing its membership so like any
good liberal they just decide well just raise
the membership fee. Really makes a lot of
sense. Were going to get a lot more customers that way. Thank you.
Why is it okay for people riding horses on
the street dont have to clean up after their
horses, but if you dont clean up after your
dog you practically go to jail around here.
If any of you who are still a member of the
Republican or Democratic party and think
that your party is not part of the problem in
Washington, and I say this as a friend, you
are delusional.
The junior class haunted hospital was awesome. Well worth the $5 admittance fee. Keep

by both about the other like
where the president was really born and that Republicans

about that, which makes up
75 percent of network TV government coverage, and stay

Among the Republicans
and even some of the
Democrats now are the conservatives, Tea Party followers, etc. Theyre pointing at
the Office of Management and
Budget reports and pie charts
and financial accounting work
and the reaction of the stock

credit downgrade due to our
debt and so on, and theyre
saying we cannot continue
to spend money we do not
have, because eventually our
debt will make us insolvent,
like someone who keeps maxing credit card after credit
card. Not to mention that
our kids will have to pay off
all this debt through higher
taxes, and with the feebleness
of the U.S. economy right now
theyll be lucky to find jobs
and may not be able to pay
taxes anyway.

AC struggles
at invitational
GARNETT Anderson County
High School volleyball players
struggled through a tough lineup of competition at the teams
Saturday invitational tournament, managing two wins and
three losses on the day.
AC bested Independence 2518, 25-21 and Iola 25-20, 20-25,
25-19, but lost to Wellsville, 2511, 25-23, Burlington 25-17, 25-21
and Fort Scott 27-25, 28-26. The
record gave AC a 4th place finish overall
Our back row defense hurt
us, said head coach Glenn
Suderman. The tournament
brought AC to 15-17 on the season.
MaKayla Kueser led AC
servers on the day with 47/50.
Reagan Jirak had 43 kills.
Cassidy Lutz and Madison
Martin had 18-15 blocks apiece.
Jessica McCullar had a 93 percent setting percentage for the

Bulldog quarterback Preston Emperling gets tangled up in a Fort Scott defender during Friday nights
district opener. Despite a handful of solid offensive plays ACs defense was unable to stop Fort Scotts
drive and lost 48-6.
Vikings cant handle Wellsville
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND As if the cold,
wind and rain Friday night
wasnt enough, Central Heights
just couldnt maintain an effective offensive drive and lost 12-7
to Wellsville.
We had two drives stall in
the red zone in the second half
with a penalty killing one and
a costly interception stopping
another late in the fourth period, said Central Heights coach
Kent Schulte. When you dont
have a lot of speed it forced you
to play almost flawless. We have
done a pretty good job of that
but we did not do a good enough
job tonight.
Wellsville scored first in the
second quarter on a 65-yard
run, but Viking Bron Ridifer
blocked the PAT. It took Central
Heights seven minutes to drive
the field next and score on a
short run by Jacob Pryor which
put the Vikes up by one.
It was the fourth period
before Wellsville found the end
zone again early in the fourth
period, but the PAT kick failed.
Central Heights needed a single
touchdown to pick up the gamewinning point but Wellsvilles
defense hung tough.
Defensively we held them
to less than 6 yards on 19 of 31
attempts, but those three big
plays did us in, in the end,
Schulte said. Wellsvilles special teams kept you bottled up
and forced us to drive the field
75 yards or better most of the
night.
The Vikings totaled 298 yards
with 248 on the ground and 50
in the air. Wellsville had 279
yards, all rushing.
Pryor led the Vikes wth 179
yards on 32 carries. Jordan
Horstick completed 4 of 16 passing attempts for 50 yards with
one interception.
GARNETT ACHS struggled through an early round
with Prairie View but topped
Osawatomie in local high school
volleyball action last week.
AC managed only 9 points
in the 25-9 opener against the
Buffaloes and lost the followup
25-23, but dominated Oz 25-11,
25-23. Coach Glenn Suderman
gave an unvarnished assessment
of the matches.
Prairie View beat us and we
played our poorest match of the
year, he said. We had a good
win over Oz though.
Junior Jessica McCullar
topped the serving stats for
AC for the day serving 21/21.
Reagan Jirak was 26/28 in
attacks. Makayla Kueser had 13
kills and 13 defensive digs on
the day. Kinlee Jones set for 90
percent in the four matches.
The AC varsity record now
stands at 13-14.

Chetopa blasts Crest in final period
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
CHETOPA It was a solid game
of 8-man football Friday night
until Chetopa put the hammer
down in the fourth period to
score 26 points and beat the
Crest Lancers 42-14.
Chetopa scored in the first
period but the Lancer defense
held to give its own offense a
scoring opportunity in the second period to make it an 8-8 tie
at the half. Crest scored again
but fluffed the 2-point conversion attempt, and Chetopa put
another 8 on the board in the
third as well. But the fourth
period was all Chetopa and the
Lancers didnt see the end zone
again the whole period.
Individual stats and scoring
were not available as of presstime. Crest is now 4-3 on the season and plays Southern Coffey
County Friday at Colony.

2003: US 59/169 roundabout plans unveiled
Oct. 28, 2003
The Kansas Department of
Transportation unveiled plans
Thursday for a roundabout at
the intersection of US routes
59 and 169 south of Garnett but
the citys chief economic development officer wants the state
to hold off on the project until
more is known about possible
highway needs for a proposed
ethanol plant. The roundabout,
or circle interchange, would be
constructed over the precise
spot of the current intersection.

The Garnett City Commission
denied a $380 claim from a man
who said actions by city work
crews pursuing the citys weed
containment ordinance resulted in the destruction of wildflower beds. The City manager
and public safety inspector had
photographed the area which
city crews later mowed, and
saw no evidence that it was a
flower bed.

cheap lease, the Idaho Timber
by Vickie Moss
Staff Writer
Company plans a relocation
move to Waverly which will
transfer its 28 local jobs from
this area to Coffey County. The
news of the companys move
was a disappointment to local
economic development officials,
who weeks ago made an offer
of free land, free utility hookup and trash service, a $50,00
cash grant for moving expense,
and participation in a 10-year
county tax abatement in order
to persuade Idaho Timber to
remain in Anderson County.

There is something unusual
about the house that used to
be a stopping place for Frank
and Jesse James, and it shows
as soon as the visitor drives
through the wooded area southwest of Bush City to the knoll
on which the house stands.
The only authentication that
the house was once inhabited
by Jesse James comes from
his connection with the Talley
boys, and heresay from historians and early day residents.
After 16 years of crime without being caught, the Jameses
wanted to settle down without
harassment. Jesse made a deal
with John Rutledge, owner of
the Rutledge place, a hideout
for such men as the James, the
Younger brothers and later
the Daltons, to buy half of the
ranch for a place to settle. Jesse
already had plans for the first
pre-fab house in Anderson
County to go up on the Rutledge
place. The house was in construction as a get-away-fromit-all hideout for James in a
not-so-expected place. It is
rumored that he William
Clarke Quantrill, a leader of
the pro-slave cause, set up a
base station on an Anderson
County farm then known as the
Rutledge place. The farm was
really set up more like a fort
with a cannon up on the highest point of the place, which
was already on a hill. It was the
largest horse ranch in eastern
Kansas. The house had lots of
doors.
Oct. 20, 1913
Last Saturday, the office
equipment of the Garnett
Journal was loaded onto a box
car and shipped to Lane, where
the present owner is establishing a newspaper. Some of the
material was used by Dr. Geo.
W. Cooper in getting out the
first number of the Garnett
Jounal January 3, 1873, and has
been part of the office equipment ever since. The Journal
was published by Dr. Cooper
until about 1887, when it was
sold to Judge Schoonover, who
in turn, sold it to C.E. Durali,
now of Kincaid, who sold it
back to Schoonover after a few
months.
Will it be momentary pleasure or eternal life?
In 1st John 3:2 the Apostle
John says. The reason why
the world does not know us
is that it did not know him.
From the time Jesus read from
the scroll of the prophet Isaiah
in his home town of Nazareth,
concerning the fulfillment of
that prophecy, through his trial
and crucifixion the religious
establishment and the majority
of the general population failed
to recognize him for who he
was, God incarnate.
He was called a prophet or a
great teacher but to most he was
not recognized as the Messiah.
Had Jesus delayed his coming
until the current generation
I doubt that most people perception would be any different
than it was in the first century.
Weekly
Devotional
by David Bilderback
He could have had a large following no doubt. People love to
follow successful and popular
individuals. His miracles and
deep teaching would have interested the mass media and intellectual thinkers. But in the end
when he began to issue harsh
rebukes and difficult teaching
his following would dwindle
just as it did in that day. On
hearing it (the teaching) many
of his disciples said, This is
hard teaching. Who can accept
it ? (John 6:60)
These were disciples who
took offense at Jesus words,
refused to listen to Jesus explanations and were unwilling to
accept the message of salvation
by grace. This is a crucial point
in this gospel. Many of the disciples together with the crowds
rejected Christ in unbelief.
Jesus then asks the twelve a
question. Do you want to go
away as well? Jesus question
brings forth Peters great confession. Lord to whom shall we
go? You have the words of eternal life and we have believed,
and have come to know you are
the Holy One of God. (John
7:68-69)
Peters confession gets to the
heart of the earlier statement,
The reason the world does not
know us is that it did not know
him. People do not want to
believe and therefore they cannot worship God. That is the
reason there is such a great
chasm or gulf between God and
man. God requires our worship. There is only one way
to bridge this gulf and that is
a through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. The
world can provide momentary
pleasures but God can provide
eternal life.

These are some of the beads found at the present work
site.
Beads found at work site
This picture shows a few
of the beads that I have found
at my present work site. Most
Indian beads were made of
shells, bone, pearls, metals, porcupine quills, seeds,
teeth, wood and pottery.
Beads were also made from
stone,although not exclusively from the flint materials.
Any small and pretty stone
could be worked into use as
a bead, although my research
has shown that stone beads
are rare when compared to
beads of other materials. With
the intrusion of the white
man, glass beads were traded
for by the Indian and thereby
came into common usage as
wampum, or Indian money, a
medium of exchange. Beads
can be found in almost any
peine

size or shape,but are usually
circular,cylindrical or oval in
form, almost always they are
perforated for easier stringing.
Note three of these beads
are spun on some type of hair
or string. Horse hair and
human hair were often used.
The very flat,thin oval bead is
made from a highly polished
stone.

Card of Thanks
To the residents of Garnett,
thank you for the last 40 plus
years. I recently retired from the
city as the Utilities Coordinator.
Obviously as with any job there
are ups and downs; however it
has been my pleasure to work
at a job that kept me close to
home, provided well for my
family and helped keep a city
going that I have always been
proud of. Its not common to
have a town with the capability
of providing all services – gas,
water, electric, sewer, trash,
etc. We have that. As residents
when we work together, we
can only get better.
Thank you again.

Fire Dept.
Is your name on the list for
a smoke detector? The Colony
firemen are handing them out to
those in need of one. They have
plenty on hand. You may phone
the city office 620-852-3530 to get
your name on the list. Almost
two-thirds (62%) of reported
home fire deaths resulted from
fires in homes with no smoke
alarms or no working smoke
alarms. Working smoke alarms
cut the risk of dying in half in
reported home fires.
Recently Scott Hendrix,
KeWade Seabolt, Butch Lytle
and Paula Decker were at Crest
School for a fire prevention program. They demonstrated equipment and spoke of fire education
to the elementary students.

thunderstorm, flash flood and
tornado warnings through telephone calls to their homes and
businesses, email and text messages to their cell phones. All
residents are urged to subscribe
to CodeRED system. To receive
winter storm warnings is an
added bonus for all residents,

to prepare if a storm were to
impact our area.
History Items
Oct. 25, 1982-A new water
tower, new water lines and a
community water building are
part of a $1.2 million project
underway in Colony. Colonys
water system will eventually be
hooked up to a water treatment
plant eight miles south of Colony.
The project was necessitated by
a combination of failing water
lines and an inadequate supply
of water from Deer Creek, which
dries up every three years. The
new system will draw water from
the Neosho River once the new
treatment plant is completed.
Oct. 3, 1983-A different type
of water started trickling from
faucets in Colony last week. The
water was the same H2O that
comes from most other faucets,
and tasted the same, but is from
a different source, the Neosho
River. This water project was
completed through a loan and
grant and the new system was
put to the test last Wednesday.
