Of Interest

| The feature of both sessions of the
/ two bodies of the state legislature
yesterday was the public reply Of
Senator c. b. Wood, of Maricopa
| county To the answer made by La
mar Cobb, state engineer, some few
! days back, to q previous statement
OF the Maricopa statemsan to certain
matters in connection with the work
of bookkeeping on the Tempe bridge
across the Salt river. Senator Wood
sent a long communication to the
desk, in which he defended his for
| mer position, and declared that Mr..
| Cobb is more excited than injured.
Cobb offered to submit to Il thor
ough Investigation some time ago,
| and offered to resign his office III
| the statements made against him
were true, and suggesting that Sena-
| tor Wood do likewise. Wood. in re
| ply, says he is not demanding the
/ resignation of Mr.. Cobb, and has
nothing against him. He further
says that he does not believe there
| has been the slightest semblance of
q dishonest act on the part Of the
state engineer He, however, does
! believe that there is confusion in the
| accounts which led to the misundcr-
standing. Finally Senator wood
| says there is no use of continuing
| the controversy. To all Of which Tho
| state engineer says that the misun-
derstanding comes about because the
| senator does not understand the diff
| ference between mere bookkeepiue
and the methods of analyzing ac-
counts that must he carried forward
under the system in use in his Of
