The Benton Review
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Benton Review is a weekly newspaper serving Benton, Jasper, Newton, Tippecanoe, Warren and White counties in Indiana. It began July 1875 as the Benton Democrat; by 1902 it was bought by George Roby as the Benton Review,[2] and he combined it with the Fowler Leader in 1914.[3] The paper's masthead describes it as a combination of the Fowler Leader (founded 1893 by John P. Carr[2]) and the Fowler Republican.
