Jasper County Democrat, Volume 6, Number 49, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 March 1904 — APPROPRIATION REFUSED. [ARTICLE]

APPROPRIATION REFUSED.

*A.t the called meeting of the county council in Newton county last Monday for the purpose of appropriating $25,000 for a new court house at Kentland, only three members voted in favor of the appropriation, and the proposition lost. The county seat fight, it would appear, is not yet dead in Newton.
