CATHARINE — A 34-year-old Hays man was arrested Wednesday north of Catharine after a nearly four-hour standoff.
According to the Ellis County Sheriff’s Office, just before 4:30 p.m. law enforcement officials were called to the 2200 block of Feedlot Road for the report of an unlawful discharge of a firearm.
During the incident, the man reportedly discharged a weapon several times.
The man, who has not been identified, was apprehended just after 8 p.m.
The Kansas Highway Patrol, Hays Police Department, Ellis County EMS, Rural Fire and Hays Drone Service all assisted during the incident.
Winston Churchill defined success as “moving from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.” When I read this, I had to chuckle as I believe it is a perfect description of the economic development process in rural Kansas but also describes the life of an entrepreneur.
At Grow Hays, our mission is business creation, business retention, and expansion and business recruitment. Pretty simple, pretty straight-forward — but far from easy. Each portion of our mission requires a strategy and planning to determine how to achieve our mission. Today, I would like to focus on the first part of our mission — business creation.
To me, business creation is synonymous with entrepreneurship. Fostering an environment that is conducive to entrepreneurship is essential if we are to grow and sustain our economy in Ellis County. We are very fortunate that Fort Hays State University is actively engaged in entrepreneurship.
The university has invested heavily in entrepreneurship and conducts events like the Faulkner Challenge and Start Up Weekend. These are excellent events that sow the seeds of entrepreneurship in the community.
At Grow Hays, we are attempting to expand those efforts through our Robert E. Schmidt Entrepreneurial Series. This series consists of several events that further foster a community environment of entrepreneurship and business creation. These events include:
Pitch It
Pitch It is our Shark Tank-type event where aspiring and existing entrepreneurs “pitch” their ideas. Each participant gives a five-minute presentation followed by questions from three judges. Each event features five presenters with the winners being awarded a $500 cash prize. The objective of the event is to not only bring new ideas to the community but to also expose these ideas and concepts to an audience of potential investors, mentors and other resources that can help turn these ideas into reality.
Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge
The YEC is a Network Kansas sponsored event consisting of high school students in Ellis County doing a trade show booth as well as presenting a business idea. Last spring, we held the first YEC in Ellis County and had over 23 participants from local high schools.
Ethan Lang from Thomas More Prep-Marian was the winner of our local YEC and then went on to win the state YEC event held in Manhattan. What a terrific first year to produce a state champion!
TriSpective Speaker Series
We have amazing talent in our community, and the TriSpective Speaker Series puts those talents on display. Each event consists of three local speakers that give 15- to 20-minute presentations on a variety of topics. These individuals tell their stories, talk about their successes and failures, and answer questions from the audience. We have had a wide range of topics ranging from marketing and branding, market segmentation, overcoming obstacles and fears, data security, and entrepreneurship. It is a terrific opportunity to hear from people who have unique skills, have overcome obstacles and have actually “done it”!
Grow Hays quarterly luncheons
Communication and education are critical to our communities success and our quarterly luncheons achieve both. At these luncheons, we bring together community leaders, provide updates regarding Grow Hays activities as well as have speakers who provide educational information on things that impact our community. We have had speakers discussing the development process, development opportunities, the property taxation process, and the oil industry and its economic impact on Ellis County.
• • •
Entrepreneurship is absolutely a key component of our economic future in Ellis County and, at Grow Hays, we are working every day to help build an environment where entrepreneurship can flourish. We are very fortunate to have The Robert E and Patricia A. Schmidt Foundation as the sponsors of our Entrepreneurial Series.
I believe it is something Bob would have been proud to have his name on.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on testimony by the acting director of national intelligence and a whistleblower complaint (all times local):
The House Intelligence Committee Thursday released a redacted version of a whistleblower complaint at the center of Democrats’ impeachment probe of President Donald Trump.
Lawmakers began reviewing a classified version of the complaint Wednesday evening ahead of testimony Thursday morning by acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire. House Democrats who have read the document say it’s “deeply disturbing.”
The whistleblower’s identity has not been made public.
The complaint is at least in part related to a July phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in which Trump prodded Zelenskiy to investigate Democratic political rival Joe Biden.
The White House released a rough transcript of that call Wednesday morning Read it here.
___
In the days following the phone call between President Donald Trump and Ukraine’s new president, senior White House officials intervened to “lock down” all records of the call. That’s according to a declassified whistleblower complaint released Thursday by the House Intelligence Committee.
The complaint says that the whistleblower learned about the effort from “multiple U.S. officials.”
Committee members are hearing testimony Thursday on the complaint and details of the July 25 call on which Trump prodded Ukraine’s leader to work with Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani and the U.S. attorney general to investigate Democratic political rival Joe Biden.
Trump has said he’s done nothing wrong. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced a formal impeachment inquiry.
DETROIT (AP) — Contract talks between General Motors and striking United Auto Workers took a step closer to reaching an agreement Wednesday when committees finished their work and sent it to the top bargainers.
Governor Laura Kelly met with striking workers in Kansas last week -photo courtesy office of Kansas Governor
The move means that minor issues largely are resolved, and a few bargainers for both sides will now try to come to terms on wages, use of temporary workers and other contentious issues.
UAW Vice President Terry Dittes outlined the development in a letter to members. He says the union presented material to GM and is waiting for a response.
“This back and forth will continue until negotiations are complete,” Dittes wrote. “We will continue to bargain this contract until your Bargaining Committee is satisfied that we have achieved an agreement that properly addresses our members’ concerns.”
In a statement, GM spokesman Dan Flores said the company will “continue to bargain in good faith, and our goal remains to reach an agreement that builds a stronger future for our employees and our company.”
Art Schwartz, a former GM negotiator who now runs a labor consulting business in Ann Arbor, Michigan, said shifting work to the main table is a good sign. But it’s tough to say how far apart both sides are on the major economic issues, he said.
“It kind of depends on how hard each side holds out. Collective bargaining is the art of compromise,” he said. “This is probably a couple people from each side are going to hammer out the final economics.” Schwartz said.
The strike by about 49,000 workers, in its 10th day, has halted production at more than 30 GM factories nationwide.
Both sides are losing money, with one analyst estimating the strike costs GM $100 million in profits per day. Workers, on the other hand, got their last GM paycheck last Friday and are scheduled to get $250 in weekly strike pay starting this Friday.
GM has been forced to close one Canadian factory and lay off workers at another. Its dealers also are starting to run short of repair parts at their service centers. Companies that make parts for factories also are starting to lay off workers. Canadian supplier Magna International said it has laid off an unspecified number of employees.

HUTCHINSON —Law enforcement authorities are investigating a registered Kansas sex offender for alleged robbery.
Taylor photo Kansas Offender Registry
Just after 5p.m. Tuesday, police say Trae Taylor tried to take a woman’s purse outside Dillons at 725 E. 4th Street in Hutchinson, according to police.
He grabbed her purse with so much force that it knocked her to ground. She held on and was dragged five to six feet. This caused some bruising. She managed to hold on and he finally gave up and ran away.
The incident was caught on store video, which police used to locate him just after 11a.m. Wednesday. He was jailed for attempted robbery with a bond of $10,000.
Taylor was on parole for a conviction of indecent liberties with a child in 2014.
He should make an initial court appearance Thursday morning.

By GLENN BRUNKOW Pottawatomie County farmer and rancher
One of my favorite cartoons is a “Hagar the Horrible” panel. The picture shows Hagar with arrows stuck in his shield, his boat sinking, obviously having a bad day. He has his hands thrown back and is looking at the heavens and proclaims, “Why me?”
The next panel shows the skies above him open up and a voice say, “Why not!” I think back on that cartoon sometimes when it comes time to advocate for agriculture. Whether it is in D.C., Topeka or a fourth-grade classroom, many times I wonder, why me? Why can’t I just stay home and work on my farm and forget the rest of the world exists?
Truth be told, I suppose I could, but the reality is the days of keeping our noses to the grindstone, minding our own business and not worrying about what anyone else thinks are long gone. I don’t know if you have noticed, but things like social media allow everyone with an opinion and a keyboard to be an expert about agriculture.
That is why it is so important for us to be involved and to advocate for agriculture. We are the true experts, and every one of us pour our blood, sweat and tears into what we do. So, I will ask you this question. If not you, then who will tell our story? We all know that answer, and the alternative is one that should scare us to death.
That is also why it is so important to be active in Kansas Farm Bureau. Alone our voices can be heard, but it is a much greater challenge. Kansas Farm Bureau and, ultimately, American Farm Bureau allow for us to come together as farmers and ranchers to achieve a common goal. It is the power of the individual member to have influence that gives us our grassroots strength.
I know each of us are incredibly busy, and it is so hard to make that sacrifice to be gone from our farms and ranches. Let me assure you the sacrifice is well worth the pain. I truly believe the time I spend advocating for agriculture, whether it is telling our story to school kids or elected officials, is just as important as the time I spend in my tractor seat.
We must all take the time to tell our story. Each of us has one to tell and the public needs to hear it. The days of assuming everyone has ties to agriculture and understands what we do are gone. The public wants to like and trust us, but they need to hear our story from us directly.
The next time your phone rings or that email pops up with an opportunity to advocate for agriculture, I want you to answer the call and tell everyone about the great work we all do every day. We feed a hungry world while protecting the soil, air and water. Why you? Why not.
“Insight” is a weekly column published by Kansas Farm Bureau, the state’s largest farm organization whose mission is to strengthen agriculture and the lives of Kansans through advocacy, education and service.

New attorneys who are unable to attend these ceremonies can choose to have the oath administered by a judge of record in the United States or make special arrangements with the clerk of the appellate courts to have the oath administered at a later date in the Judicial Center.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Josh Donaldson had a career-high three doubles while driving in four runs, Dansby Swanson had a career-high four hits while driving in two, and the NL East champion Braves cruised to a 10-2 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday night.
With their playoff seed secure and nothing on the line, the Braves sent reliever Josh Tomlin to the mound for his first start of the season. Luke Jackson (9-2) was among six relievers to go the rest of the way, helping the Braves snap a four-game skid to the Royals.
Ozzie Albies, Nick Markakis and Adam Duvall also drove in runs for the Braves, who get the day off Thursday before heading to New York to wrap up the regular season with three games against the Mets.
They’ll host Game 1 of the divisional round Oct. 3 against the NL Central champion.
Meibrys Viloria and Nicky Lopez drove in the only runs for the Royals, who lost their 101st game as they close out manager Ned Yost’s career in the dugout. Yost announced Monday that he was retiring at the end of the season, which means he has just three games left against Minnesota.
Royals starter Mike Montgomery retired 10 of 11 batters beginning in the second inning before trouble struck in the fifth. The left-hander walked Albies, Donaldson followed with an RBI double, and Markakis delivered a run-scoring single to knot the game 2-all.
Jacob Barnes (1-4) and Heath Fillmyer were even less effective for Kansas City, coughing up the lead in the sixth by allowing three runs on three hits, two walks and a sacrifice fly.
The Braves tacked on four more runs in the eighth and another in the ninth.
AWARD WINNERS
INF Erick Mejia, who hit .271 with 63 RBIs, and RHP Andres Machado, who had a 2.89 ERA out of the bullpen, were the Royals’ minor league players of the year from Triple-A Omaha. Other award winners were OF Khalil Lee and RHP Brady Singer at Double-A Northwest Arkansas, OF Brewer Hicklen and LHP Chris Bubic at Class A Wilmington and INF Jeison Guzman and RHP Jon Heasley at Class A Lexington.
ACUNA SIDELINED
Braves OF Ronald Acuna Jr. (left hip tightness) will sit the rest of the regular season, manager Brian Snitker said, after he left Tuesday night’s game after two innings. Acuna leads the Braves with 41 homers and is three steals shy of 40. “He could probably go with some risk,” Snitker said.
MONDESI SURGERY
Royals SS Adalberto Mondesi will have surgery to repair the left shoulder he hurt over the weekend, though the club hopes he will be ready by opening day next season. Mondesi hit .263 with nine homers and 62 RBIs to go with 20 doubles, 10 triples and 43 stolen bases. But he was limited to just 102 games after sustaining a subluxation to his shoulder in July, then hurting it again Sunday against Minnesota.
UP NEXT
The Braves and Royals have Thursday off before wrapping up the regular season. Mike Foltynewicz (8-5, 4.46 ERA) leads things off for Atlanta against the Mets on Friday night, and Eric Skoglund (0-2, 7.50) gets the nod for Kansas City against the Twins.
Margaret Louise Bott, 95, formerly of Salina, Kan. passed away Sunday, Sept. 22, 2019 at Pin Oaks Living Center in Mexico, Mo. Margaret was born Oct. 10, 1923 on her family farm near McCracken, to Samuel and Christena (Hamburger) Bott.
