SUBSIDY ASKED IN PRINCETON TOWNSHIP

—•_ . ___ . ... Indiana Northwestern Traction Co. Also Seeks Tax Aid at Wolcott, White County. Monticello Herald. A petition was granted for a railroad election in Princeton township, asked by the Indiana Northwestern Traction Co., which hopes to get 'a subsidy of 2 per cent on -the taxable property of that township. The proposition was recently defeated in Carpenter township, where Remington is located, but won out at Rensselaer. The promoters have now secured an order for another election at Remington op April 7th, and Princeton and Carpenter townships will both vote on the matter the same day. The Board here at first refused to grant the petition until a deposit should be made covering the cost of an election, but finally reconsidered and set the election for April 7th, on being advised that they could be mandated.
