BENTON TO GET
FORMER SALARY
Supervisors VIII Not Reduce
Pay OF Road Superin-
tendent as Had Been
Intended
OFFICIAL WINS POINT

No cut is made in the salary Of
Road Superintendent J. ] Benton as
was attempted by the board Of SUI
pervisors. That body retired from
the position which it had taken pre-
viously when it met in Tombstone
this week. In addition to this 1t ap-
pears that Renton further won on
his contention that he is responsible
TO the voters FOR the condition of the
roads and win decide what work
shall be done and where il shall be
put. He sends word to Bisbee that
the roads hereabouts will be given
bis immediate attention.
Benton Wins Points.
When the board OF supervisors as
sembled at Tombstone J. J. Benton,
the road superintendent was pres
ent. represented by council. As a
result Of the meeting the cut in sal.
airy to 5000 does not go. The old
salary viii be paid and he is in
charge % road repair and road con.
struction Tor the county. He sent
word To tbs effect TO Bisbee yester-
day and stated that as large a force
as practical would be put to work
in aud about this section OF the
county to put the roads in passable
shape. He further desires to meet
those interested in the roads here
abouts at an early date.
Starts Needed Work.
Last week a letter was sent to
Benton by Secretary Gray of the
Commercial club on behalf of and
81 h.
tee. asking Benton to set a date for
q meeting with them IN this city To
discuss ways and means OF lettering
road conditions. To this letter a re-
ply was received Monday that he
would be pleased to meet the club
members or committee members at
any date the committee might set.
Yesterday Dave Hasler returned
from Tombstone bearing two mes
sages. One vac to J. ]. Bowen and
said that Benton wished to inform
Mr.. Bowen that he had directed Has
Ter to start work on the repairing of
the roads about the Warren District
was as barge a force as possible at
once. U.s.
SENDS Word to Gray.
To Secretary Gray he sent the
same message and also asked MIN
to see the roads committee and ar
range an early date for meeting and
that he would arrange to attend and
discuss the matter of road improve
ment with those of Bisbee and the
district interested in the matter. This
the comr,ittee takes as an indication
that from now on the claims of the
heaviest taxpaying section of the
county to better roads will be recog-
niZed and The balance of the fund
will be spent in populous sections
and not for further new road build
ing in the extreme northern and
western sections of the county.
Among local good rOadsters this idea
was warmly welcomed and a date is
to be selected today for the pro
posed meeting with the road super
intendant and notification OF that
date sent 70 him.

HUNT APPROVES
CONV|CTS' WORK
Governor Believes Labor
Done on Highways Good
for Prisoners and Good
for the Public
MEN BEHAVE WEI.

GLOBE, Oct 9.-Governor G. W. p.
Hunt was interviewed here recently
regarding his views on the use 10
which convicts might be put. The
governor has inspected some road
building done by the prisoners who
are at the Florence penitentiary. Gov
ernor Hunt seemed pleased with the
results secuEed. and is a supporter of
the system of using these men, re-
strained of crimes committed, in ad-
yancing the work for which the pub
lie Is in need.
Would you care to say anything
relative to the convict road building?"
was asked the governor.
Making Progress
Il paid the convicts visit on the
GlobeRay road today" replied the
executive. and found everything in
good shape. They are making as
much progress as can be expected, as
they are now in solid rock, and a
great deal of blasting is required.
They are also building retaining walls
We have about $50 conYicts at var
ious points. and a great deal is being
accomplished. They are stationed on
the GlobeRay road and also the road
from Florence to Mesa. They are GO
ing TO repair the road from Florence
to Tucson. a state road which has
been partially washed out. We also
anticipate starting bridge at Yuma
as soon as the bridge is finished at
Tempe. which will be about the first
of the year"
Men Behave Themselves
do you think It wise to allow the
marderers and life term prisoners at
liberty?" asked the interviewer.
Well said the governor, I'VE
have seventy llfers' in the peniten-
tiary, and out OF that number we
picked only six men, who have been
incarcerated from eight to nineteen
years, and have a record for good be-
hayior. They are doing very good
work and have not conducted them
selves improperly. Incidentally, | may
tell you that he have concluded that
We cannot work the negroes and

Judge Tells Husband and Girl
Hailed to Court by Wife to
Marry.

Il hope this row can be ended with
a double wedding" said Judge Broyles
today, as he dismissed the cases against
Lee Chalmers and Miss Lula Berbig.
The cases were made by Mrs, Lee
Chalmers, when from her typewriter
desk in the Office of DR.. l.. r. Williams,
of 1872 Edgewood avenue, she saw
her husband and the pretty young
woman walking down the street.
Chalmers and his wife are suing each
other for divorce; she alleges failure to
support and i'll treatment: he alleges
that she had too many admirers.
At the trial Chalmers told the re-
corder that his wife was going to mar
ry Dr. Williams as soon as she was
free Neither Mrs. Chalmers nor her
employer denied this. Then the judge
handed out his advice to Chalmers to
get married to Miss Berblg as soon as
he was free. This met no protest
either.
Miss Berbig is a pretty young woman
Of Is years She lives at No 8 Arm

age as "a Her present address Is 1854

mers told the recorder that on June %

and struck her Judge Broyles fined
the husband $40 for this, but on the
testimony that this case had been set

fine. AS he did so Miss Berbig snap
