Take Up the White Man's Gas for Garnett Vote
A 1899 Garnett ballot proposal asks voters to fund natural gas supply and plant construction. The measure cites benefits seen in eastern Kansas cities and argues public control ensures local prosperity and no private canalization of funds. The piece quotes community support by the Business Men's Club and includes a controversial call to missionize indigenous peoples. The text contrasts public ownership with private profit and frames the issue as vital for Garnett's future.
