 Maddock explained that it had all ways been the aim of his department to work in harmonious cooperation with the various boards of supervi- sors, and cited Roberts, own county in proof of his contention. Chadwick, a general foreman appointed under the Hunt administration was still oh the job, and the maintenance men were the same who have been hand ling this work for the past five or six years, he said Maddock told Rob- erts, too, that he considered Jenkins one of the best engineers that had ever been placed on the force. and that this was proven by the fact that his roads had stood severe tests un- der recent storm conditions.
 But Roberts was obdurate. He maintained that the supervisors hao reached a very definite decision nl the matter and led the engineer to believe that their say, like the laws of the Medes and Persians, was not to be trifled with. It would have to stick.
 And so Maddock sent the wire which will stop all work on the state highway through Tombstone, will halt all work on the Vail-Benson route and divert all supplies ana equipment into Pima county for the purpose of improving the southern route between Vail and Empire.
