OIL|NG OF NAC0
 ROAD WEARS
 COMPLETION
Street Springling and Re pair Work in Other Parts of City Resumes
 Today

Today will see the completion of the grading work for the oiling of Naco road in the city limits, accord ing to Street Superintendent Wright, and few days longer will see all the work completed There will be a lit tie delay pending the receipt of the last Of the needed oil but the end s now in sight Mir. Wright further stat ed that beginning today or tomorrow he would be able to resume street sprinkling in other parts of the city where 1t has had to be neglected while the city stock was engaged in the work on Naco road
 The street superintendent yesterday in speaking of the work that is now in progress of Naco road, took occasion to compliment Adamson and Scott, the contractors who have the matter in hand. on the manner in which they have and are fulfilling the contract. He states that they have been found at all times ready and willing to do even more than the specifications called for. There have been times when he considered that additional grading or filling gGs necessary and at his re- quest this has always been acceeded to at once by the contractors.
 fi9 considers that the city and the taxpayers have every reason for sat. isfaction at the manner in which the contract has been handled. "Of course said he, there can be found wayy spots in the road, but these can not be avoided in street making such as is being done here. Where it is all machine york it is an easy matter toI make a street or road perfectly level or smooth, but this may be called hand work to a large extent and for that reason it is impossible to avoid some waviness such as appears here in spots"
 He added that the oiling was a,s most up with the grading and that with the arrival of the last of the oil it could be completed with rapidity.
 The matter on which Mir. Wrigh laid most stress was the desire that had been displayed on the part of Atkinson and Scott to give the city even more than they had promised. It had been necessary in a number of places to put in more dirt than had been expected and in such places he had only to ask to have them agree with readiness. He had found it an easy matter to get everything required done and believes that this will ap pear in the completed work.
 Another thing l want is to thank the people of the city for the patience and the consideration they have shown. It has been disagreeable to have the street torn up and the fact thaS we were engaged on the work has dc. layed other work in other parts oi the city but when l explained this u any individuals they have quickly seen the point and there has been a ready acquiesence in awaiting the end of this work before abating other incou. veniences. He added that the sprinkL ing Of streets which has had to be discontinued during the work as the city stock was otherwise engaged, | would now be continued. This does not mean on Naco road for the oiling of that thoroughfare will dispense with the need of sprinkling there, but in l the sections of the city where there are no oiled surfaces.

COUNTESS DANCES IN
 F|G LEAF COSTUME
Titled Woman lnVents Novelty Called
 "The Temptation of Eve"


 OAKS Bluffs. Mass, Aug. 9;-This summer resort almost fell off the is land today when somebody spread a story that the Titan haired Countess Irmgard von Rottenthal had a new dance in which her costume consisted of two fig leaves and an apple.
 And it's true.
 The countess, who dances at smart gatherings, has invented a dance call ed The Temptation Of Eve" In this dance the countess carries a large apple This is to represent the apple which made so much trouble in Eden.
 The countess costume is cut in the shape of two fig leaves. But they are extra large leaves-large enough, in fact. to clothe the dancer. However, it is whispered that the dance is so startling that it will never do for this quiet summer resort. The countess is going to try it on some other city first.

Outlook for Organized Labor
Under Democratic Rule Is

There is bright outlook for organ

president of the American Federation
of Labor today. M. O'ConneH, whose
home is in Washington, came to At

uel Gompers, to be present at the first
sectional convention Of labor ever held
the Southeastern Labor congress
which met this afternoon at the capitol.
THE Democratic party Included all
OF organized labor's planks in its plat

there is no reason to doubt they will be
carried out in practice. One Of these

No Fear of Panic.
"Don't let any of this panic talk wor-
ry you. Nothing the Democratic ad-
mintstration will do will injure the
business Of America and there will be
no factories shut down no men thrown
out of work
The period of panics or Expressions

Nearly 200 delegates We're present

O'Clock. The visitors were welcomed by.
Jerome Jones, editor of The Journal of
Labor; James L. Mayson, city attorney,
and S. B. Marks, president of the State
Federation of Labor.
Organization Needed.
Better organization in union labor is
needed in the South, and the congress
must work to that end" said one promi-
nent delegate.
Atlanta is q good union town. So is
cities But in the smaller towns and in
the Carolinas union organization must
be brought up to a higher standard.
THE need of uniform laws in the
Southeastern states is clearly apparent,
and the congress will work along that
line, too. Georgia has very good labor
laws. Louisiana and Florida are far
behind. The states which are back
ward in labor legislation must be
brought up TO the standard of the best.
Child labor laws, factory inspection reg
ulations, laws governing hours of labo"
all these need improving"
Sessions OF the congress will be held
tonight and tomorrow. Judson King,
secretary Of the National Initiative,
Referendum and Recall society, will de-
liver an address tonight.
