TOWNSHIP ALMOST
HAD BIC SURPLUS
Trustee WitWer Discovers New
Law and Levy For Year
is Reduced.

Portage township has just barely
escaped from the awful situation of
having nearly SIS, GOO surplus in her
treasury. and Trustee Witwer Is still
debating with himself as TO what
would have been done with SO much
money that had not been figured on
in making the levy for the year The
situation all grew out of the fact that
the last legislature passed law which
had escaped the notice of the township
advisory board and which, also. had
apparently escaped the notice of the
state board of accountants. The dis
coVery of the law at the last minute
has had the result of lowering the
levy Tor the ensuing year % cents and
increasing the amount OF the town
ship fun%
In looking through the 1915 stat
utes late Monday afternoon i'm search
of other information, County Auditor
Sedgwick discovered law whicn
had been approved March s, 1915, and
which was entitled: An act providing
for the levying of taxes for the town
ship funds. The law reads as fol-
lows:
Section 1. Be it enacted by the
general assembly of the state of In
diana that each advisory board in the
several townships of the state shall, at
the annual September meeting of the
board. levy a tax for township funds
upon all the taxable property within
the township, including the taxable
property in cities and incorporated
towns within the boundaries OF the
township"
sedgwick Immediately called the
attention of Township Trustee Witwer
to the law and the discovery was made
that instead of the 20 cents levy on
$1'500,00t of country property made
by the advisory board last week TO
raise $4,000 for the township fund,
levy of two cents on S31,50O,0O0 of
country and city property would raise
approximately $4,000, or $4,000 more
than had been deemed necessary by
the advisory board. Such a reduction
of 23 cents it was figured would re-
duce the whole tax levy from II
cents to "a cents which would be 20
cents less than the levy of the previous
year.
Trustee Witwer has notified the
members of the advisory board Of the
matter and it has been agreed to make
the two cent levy. The trustees re-
port had not been signed by the
board and so the matter can be adj
iusted through the necessary change
in the appOrtiOnment which will be
approved when the board signs the re-
port.

paying of the road supervisors, the
trustee and the justices of the peace.
The justices are paid a salary of
1000 in addition to their office rent
and supplies The law was passed for
the purpose of taking some of this
burden oft the shoulders of the cOUn-
try and placing it on the cities. The
township has heretofore had TO pay
for the justices whereas the most of
the justice court business has come
from the city The law applies TO all
townships in the state, but will be par
ticularly equitable in those townships
where large cities are located.
Trustee Witwer is elated over the
discovery for, as he points out, the
township outside of the city had paid
all the Justice court expense while 40
out Of so justice court cases arise in
the city.

HIGH SCHOOL TO MEET.

An enthusiastic meeting was held
in the high school assembly Monday
afternoon 10 decide whether football
would be included i'm fall athletics.
Coach Semeler said that the game was
a hard grueling one, and it was not
all in getting out and running around
field: TO have a good first team they
would have TO have a good scrub
team. Prof. Horton said that those
who played would have to have doc
tors and parents certificates. A vote
was held to see how many were in ia
vor Of football and it went So to in
favor. If the game is taken up the
team will necessarily have TO be a light
one. A schedule will be arranged later
on. Goshen, Nappanee and other near
by towns will be taken on.
