Dallas, Texas .July 27 There is in
night In Texas for the construction
of roads in the near future a fund of
approximately $200jt00,000, according
to information compiled by Uuitii
Hancock, good roads enthusiast and
former chairman of the State liigh-
way commission, At a cost of $16,060
per mile for permanent road construc-
tion the fund will build 20,000 miles
of roads; at a cost of $5,000 per mile
for roads of a substantial though not
permanent type it will build 40,000
miles of road. The entire mileage of
the State highways designated by the
State highway commission Is not more
than 18,000 miles.
Mr Hancock said approximately
$9,000,000 of road bonds which had
been previously voted were on hand
j January 1, and that sum is now being
' expended in road con trnetion Since
January I and up to July 1. county
and district bonds to the extent of
$53,213,000, had been voted Tho
I State highway fund shows more than
$1,600,000, all of which has been al-
lotted. and $648,983 of which has been
paid to the fund up to the last report.
Adding to these figures the federal
aid granted to Texas, amounting to
more than $16,000,000, a total of near-
ly $80,000,000 is actually In sight now
for road work, Mr Hancock said,

The people’s democratic party ol
Texas contemplates having a ticket in

Essex. Members of this party, ho
said, will not take part in tin1 pri
tuaiies next July, but will hold a
State convention, probably in Waco,
after the primaries have been hold
At tins time, Mr Essex said, a State

Mr Bailey’s letter to Mr Essex ae
cepting the invitation to he pre ami

"I have boon inclined to the view
that tin; real democrats of Texas

to rescue the control of our party
from the men who arc deliberat dy
