STARTS ON PAGE ONE

Wheat, showed that in making the de-
tour, as required by the federal high
way engineer, H. B. Morrison, the
county would save $3,34466. which
added to the cost of the two tunnels.
would be a saving in actual figures Of
$64, 435.26.
The figures as given by the county
engineer are as follows: For grading
and drainage structure on the new
line, s7,O75.2o; grading and drainage.
and 200 feet more of paving on the old
line, Is $l0.419.S6, which shows that
the relocation would save the county
more than $4,000, not counting in the
$50, 900 for the tunnels.
County Engineer Wheat stated that,
in his opinion, the detour was far bet
ter than tunnellng. as the latter was
30 expensive, compared to the other
route, and that he had gone carefully
into the matter with the residents in
that neighborhood and that there had
been very little opposition to the new
road. He had a number of signed
statements from residents of that sec
ton showing that they were willing to
allow tho change, because they felt
II to be to the best interests of the
county.
Mr.. Wheat stated that in nearly ev-
cry instance the residents had agreed
to removal of residences, If the county
would move the buildings at its own
expense, and in nearly every instaSce
the residents lhd agreed that they
would not charge anything but the
cost of such removal.
The county commissioners, however
overruled by Mr.. Farmers protests
left last night for Tallahassee, armed
with the following resolution:
Resolved by the Board of County Com
missioners. that the committee of three
members OF this board and the COUNT,

with the state road department on to-
morrow. in behalf Of Escambia county

And be It further resolved that the
commissioners be authorized to present
to the State Road Department the facts
and figures, and the data as prepared
by the county engineer, showing the
proposed tunnels and surveys thereof on
tho present road from Pensacola to Flo
maton under the G. r. and A. railroad,
near the Roberts ana Gonzalez stations;
Be IL further resolved that the county
instruct to ask the consideration of the
State Road Department of the continual
ton of the present route as laid out with
tunnels as projects;
Be it further resolved that in the event
that the State Road Department and the
United States Senior Highway Engineer
should reject the proposition of continu-
ing the present route with the tunnels
on the road as proposed. that the county
be authorized to enter into an agreement
with the State Road Department for the
change of location of the road between
the @. r. and A. and the L. and N, as
suggested by Mr.. II. B, Morrison, United
States Senior Highway Engineer.
The commissioners will also ask the
State Road Department for fifty thou
sand dollars, to be used on the NuneZ
Ferry road. in order that this part Of
Road Number One. designated as part
