 coalition ticket composed of both democrats and republicans, and pledged to the best interests of the community as a whole.
 That the Bisbee ticket which will be supported by the good citizens also adheres to the requirements laid down for candidates by the League for National United, is also pointed to with pride by citizens of this city. "The nation must be able to count upon the nomination of men who are whole-hearted and unequivocal supporters of the war aims of our government and it's pur- pose to prosecute the war to a sue cessful termination" says the plea of the league. In Bisbee this is just what has been done, it is pointed out by the packers of the citizens ticket. The requirements of war and the un- usual conditions which the country faces, have necessitated the placing in the field of men who will conduct the city affairs on an economical, ef- ficient, thorough basis in full sym pathy with the government. Each Of the candidates is pledged to the resi- dents of Eisbee to give his utmost en- deavor to secure wartime admins tration which will be to the entire sat isfaction of the administration and will be entirely to the best interests of th ecity and it's citizens.
 "The announcement of the league for National Unity" said one resident of the district yesterday, ''ts almost a repetition of the platform on which we entered this race. It is glorious to see that Bisbee, almost two months before a national movement of this character had been started, had or ganized on the basis now being advo- cated nationally and had put in the field a ticket entirely in harmony and sympathy with the aims and ideals for which the league is making Its campaign throughout the United States.
 "The greatest significance of the appeal of the League for National Unity" the resident continued, "is not in the fact that Bisbee has taken this progressive step, but in the fact that both democrats and republicans throughout the nation have now come to the conclusion that for the best and most efficient government, a CO., alition is necessary. Residents Of Bisbee realized this some time ago, but the national recognition of the facts will serve to clinch the decision the more firmly and determinedly.
 Coming at this time, the pea of the league will assure the overwhelm- ing election of the citizens non-parti. san ticket"

STOLEN HONOR, IS FOX
 PIGTURE AT CENTRAL

The William Fox photoplay, ''Stolen Honor" starring Miss Virginia Pear son, at the Central theater, is certain ly a splendid picture, one that has beauty in its scenes and settings.
 Miss Pearson's dramatic ability has a big opportunity of showing itseli in some stirring scenes. Her beauty or face and form adds much interest to the picture.
 In the play she is a society girl with a love of painting.
 Miss Pearson is in a difficult posi- tion because she tries to shield a girl friend who has been somewhat in discreet The situation works out through some very dramatic touches.
 Miss Pearson, be it known, wears many beautiful up-to-the-minute gowns in this production. Those looking for new styles will get many points by watching her carefully.

His hand was on a wire which had the short circuit When he did this there was a Llinding flash and his fellow employees were unable to soc fer monRnt or two just what had hap pened. Naylor fell and as his body again made a contact there was second flash. One of his fellow work CTS was close to him and was burned on the side of the face by the blaze. He was taken at once to the C. & A. hospital for treatment AS soon as e1- T., -t,, Dff was taken to the outside of the build ing and Dr. Bledsoe was called.

QI||) - Swiift&Company Made No Profit The consumer would pay only IA cent a pound less for his dressed beef.
 If Swift & Company waived all profit on cattle, and gave it to consumers in the form of lower beef prices, this would reduce the cost to the average consumer less than25 cents per year for all the beef he eats. nfact, the packers pro- fit is so insignificant that if surrendered to the con- sumner the effect upon retail meat prices would be practically nothing. 1t is because of the volume of meat hand led that the investor in Swift & Company's business receives a satis- factory return upon his money.
 These figures for 1917

one Of the happiest boys In France
Edited by Edith Cunningham

one of the happiest boys In France
today.
Last September, when Troop b
left Tacoma, young Jones was not
feeling quite up to standard, and
while the troop was in New York
and making preparations to sail,
he was taken quite i'll and forced
to go to the hospital.
September 10 Troop B sailed
for Europe, leaving behind a sick
and lonesome hoy. Month after
month dragged by, and Christmas
came around with Harold still in
the hospia al and his hopes almost
vanished.
So life passed for him, until the
first of February the doctors pro-
nounced him well enough to travel
and go across the big pond.
Now Harold is safe and sound
in France, hobnobbing with all
his old time friends and cronies
in Troop B. In a letter to his
mother here. he writes that he is
simply jumping with JOY.

Can't Kill I'm

lt takes a lot to XIII a good
american, whether he be fighting
in Uncle Sans army, or with
Johnny Bull. IL is all for the
same good cause and the boys are
selling their lives dearly. Some
time ago A. F. Baird of Port Or.
rhard, received word that his son
William, had been killed with the
Canadian forces in France.
Now, there has arrived at the
Baird home a letter from william
which says that it is not true al
all. and tells just how it happened
While he wrote the letter Baird
was still in an English hospital
Parts of 1t read as follows:
Well, Dad, I will write you a
few lines to let you know that
am still on top and Old Fritz has
not got me yet by a jugful. but
he very nearly landed me this
time. II he had, would have
been way ahead of him on num-
bers, you can bet.
81 am in a London hospital now
and I can hardly realize that
am out of that awful hell that
they call Sunny France Pop
this is the fiercest thing that you
ever heard of. That artillery fire
is something fierce and no man
can stand up against it. My part
ner had both of his legs blown
off by a whizbang-that is what
we call one of Fritz shells. You
can hear the whiz before the bang.
81 was wounded on the last day
of January. Old Fritz put over
everything that he had, and our
artillery came back at him. Our
trench was only 35 yards from
his.
II and four more of the boys
were on a bombing post and
stayed by them and held the post
until daylight-five hours after
was wounded, and then | crawled
into an old cellar and laid there
all day until dark, so that / could
be taken out. The house was all
down, dad, and I was under fire
for II days. Fritz sent gas over
that night and I got gassed, too
to make things worse. The Yanks
are holding down a front now and
! guess that they are doing fine
They are not in Mexico on a
pleasure trip now, you bet.
"Pop, my clothes were all shot
to pieces. One bullet went in the
back of my pants leg and came
out the front but that did not
stop me. They took my clothes
off at the dressing station and
