Democrats open potshot season in Kansas governor race
In Topeka, Kansas Democrats opened the 1990 political season with attacks on incumbent Republican Gov. Mike Hayden while urging unity to recapture the governor’s office. Candidates Fred W. Phelps Sr. and Joan Finney spoke at a state committee meeting, with former Gov. John Carlin awaiting a May 1 announcement. Docking touted Carlin as the strongest challenger and warned Hayden would use demagoguery. Phelps urged not to alienate black voters or pro choice advocates as the primary nears in August.

Scenery may change for new jail building east of present site
Franklin County plans a jail addition east of the current structure facing Hickory Street rather than west toward Main Street. The shift increases total space to 21,000 square feet with 38 medium to maximum security units and 26 minimum spaces, raising the price to about 2.86 million but potentially saving 1.5 million by meeting future standards. Parking changes include losing 12 to 15 spaces with a new lot added south of the courthouse lawn, and state historical concerns influenced the orientation. Commissioners may act next Monday after reviewing the latest plan. Loyd Builders of Ottawa chosen as project manager for remodeling the old Alco building at about 403,000 construction cost plus fee.
