People coming from the
country down the river ex-
press the opinion very en-
phatically that there must be
a better road connecting them
with Benson if this town is
to retain the trade Of the peo-
pie living in that section of
country. Benson's legiti-
mate trade territory extends
for thirty or forty miles in
that direction and with good
roads the stockrnen. farmers,
miners and others would just
naturally drift this way. But
other towns are sizing up the
situation and strong efforts
are likely to divert travel and
business from its natural and
most advantageous route. A
hopeful feature of the matter
for Benson however is the
action of the Board of Super
visors on the initiative of cit
izens Of Benson in recogniz-
ing the need of rebuilding this
road and their promise of aid
in it's construction.

OLNEYS CAREER

Texas, his native state, when a boy
about fifteen years old He Sc
cured employment as a'cow boy an
occupation which he followed for
several years. By industry and
thrift he saved some money and
invested it in the cattle business
and has been engaged in the cattle
business nearly ever since, dispos-
ing of his stock interests only a
few years ago.
His first official position was as
a deputy sheriff of Graham county
and while holding this position
was in charge of a posse which cap
tured two of the five Bisbee mur-
derers, following them ur into their
place of rendezvous on the Blue
river.
He was then elected sheriff of
the county, position which he
held for two years and was later
appointed to fl the unexpired term
of republican sheriff who had de-
faulted in Office He also served
as mayor of the city of Stafford;
served two terms as a member OF
the board of supervisors of the
county; served one term as mem
Der of the territorial council and
one term as a member of the terri
torial board of equalization.
The competence which he has
acquired was through his cattle In
terests, and in the judicious in
vestments in real estate which in
creased in value. he still holds
considerable real estate interests IN
his former place of residence In
Stafford.
It was as a member of the board
of supervisors that he took the
stand to compel miniug companies
of that county to pay a just proper
tiou of the taxes of the county.
The county assessor, J J Blrdno,
in 1904, increased the assessments
on the mining properties of the
county and when the county board
of equalization held its meeting the
question of reducing his a>sess-
ments to what they had formerly
been was brought before the board.
Mr.. Olney stood for sustaining the
action of the assessor, but lhe other
two members voting against him
the reduction was ordered.
The case was appealed to the
territorial board of equalization and
Mr.. Clney was active in preparing
the evidence which was submitted
to the board in support of the or
iginal assessments AS made by
Birdno. The board reversed the
actiou of the county board and or
dered the assessments fixed at the
original figures of the county as
SCISSOR, and raised the assessments
of all the other mining companies
in the territory so as to place them
on an equal basis with that of Graz
ham county. This action taken In
1904 was the first move ever made
towards raising the assessments OF
the mining companies of the ter
ritory.
The other two members of the
board of Graham county refused to
obey the order of the the terrltOr,
ial board, and the case was taken
into the courts and the republican
members of that tribunal decided 1t
in favor of the mining companies.
The following year the Graham
county assessor made the attempt
again to raise the assessments and
with the aid of Mr.. Olney was sue
cessful in securing the raise de-
sired, and the raise was made all
