COSTLY FUN FOR THE DEAR PEOPLE.

The Kentland Enterprise figures out that the tax payers of Newton county have about $6,500 to pay for the sport that Morocco has been having in delaying the construction of the court house. That will mean several dollars each to the taxpayers of the county, and added to this, arises the question, ‘ How much more will it cost before the north endera get through with the fight, and who will get the benefit for the thousands of dollars of county money spent?” That is a question that remains to be seen, and it is one also that is mighty interesting to the fellow that will have the bill to pay. —Brook Reporter.
