CITIZENS TICKET. WITH CLEAN SWEEP WINS THREE WARDS
Erickson Defeats Delbridge by 457 Votes; Miners Patriot ism in First Ward Feature of Ballot Battle

In an election featured by a close contest in the second ward and by an overwhelming patriotic vote by the miners and residents of the first ward, the Bisbee Citizens Non-Partisian ticket yesterday made clean sweep of the city contest. electing a mayor and six aldermen. The contest was waged hntly throughout the day, and toward evening the opposition desper- ately attempted to bring out voters in a vain hope that they might swing what they readily saw to be. a lost cause. The patriotism of Bisbee's resi- dents accounted ain main for the re suits.
 The election was attended in the second ward by one of the hottest bat ties of ballots ever waged in this city. The second ward was early made the battle ground, when the opposition de- cided that if they should swing this district they could control the council. However, they had not counted on the patriotism of the miners, and in both the first and second wards the vote of the working men and women en- tirely defeated their candidates.
 In the first ward the opposition had early counted on an easy victory. Their confidence was based on the fact that the miners and their families composed a large portion of this resi- dency. The miners. however, had been posted on the issues in the cleo on-patriotism- their reply to the opposition was of such strength ha last night to read the message of the ballots.
 In the third ward the election was never in doubt. The citizens ticket had counted on carrying this district by big odds, and had prepared for this landslide Their figures before cleo tion wore practically born out in the final count.
 In the result, leaders in politics of this district, especially in the light Of a similar victory in Jerome. see em- barassment for Governor Hunt and his cohorts in Phoenix, where for the past two weeks they have been endeayOring to stir up strife Absolute defeat of the governors pet candidates in the two large mining centers of the state, they declare, cannot but cause that of ficial some worry.
 Telegrams of congratulation began to pour into Bisbee to candidates on the no1-partisan ticket and their back CTS soon after the results became known and the news was flashed over the state by the Western Union and the Associated Press wire from the Review office. Many residents of Phoenix, Tucson, Jerome, Globe and Clifton sent their congratulations to Bisbee and the newly elected officials.

CHICAGO, May 27.-Amalgamation with the Non-Partisan league in North Dakota was proposed by the officers of the agricultural branch of the h. dustrial Workers of the World, ac- cOrding to evidence introduced by the government today in the trial of 112 r. w. W leaders for conspiracy to hamper the governments war plans.
 The combination, advocated by For est Edwards, secretary of agricultural branch, and others, was intended ito give the I. w. W. complete control III the harvest fields of North Dakota.
 Under the proposed arrangement the NOn-Partisan league members were to hire Only members of the l. w. W. After a conference between the two organizations, however, announcement was made that the plans had not ma terialized The files taken from the Minneapolis headquarters by the gov ernment and read into the records to- day contained letters, reports and bull letins showing opposition to the war and encouraging violence against in- dustries necessary to prosecution of the war
 In answering criticism of the l. W. w. opposition to the war against Ger many, Edwards wrote:
 "The class war is the war we're in- terested in. We don't care for side issues"
 Letters of Grover Perry, an organ izer in the southwest made reference to the fight with members of the Amer ican Federation of Labor, particularly in Arizona.
 One letter in this file advised a fel- low organizer that when an applicant for I. w w. membership presents W. F. of NJ. (Western Federation of Minersl card, this should be accepted as the membership fee"
 Joseph Rurdall, former I. W. w, tes- tified on cross examination that while working in the harvest fields he could tell by the sun when machinery would break down.

SUMMER SESSION IS NOW ASSURED
Rv RevIew Leased Wire,

WASHINGTON. May 27.-President Wilson today ended discussion over whether congress shall remain in ses- sion this summer to enact new rev enue legislation by appearing before the house and senate in joint session and calling upon members to put aside politics and ali other considerations to provide money for growing war eX- penses and to advise the country in advance of the tax burdens it must meet
 As the president was leaving the capitol word came that the German drive against the west front had been renewed. He gave his visit a dra- matic touch by announcing this news as he concluded his prepared speech saying it strengthened the purpose he had tried to express.
 Abandon Vacation Plan
 The demand that with the war at its peak and crisis" congress do its duty at home as the soldiers are dO- ing their duty in the trenches over seas brought instant acquisition. There still was reluctance in some quarters to believe immediate lesis- lation imperative but plans for mid summer adjournment were abandoned and both democratic and republican leaders expressed their determination to go at the task of passing a rev enue bill with will.
 A suggestion by the president that most of the next taxes probably would fall on income and excess profits and luXuries and that profiteers could be reached in this way was greeted with cheers and congressional leaders said later the money needed would come from these sources.
 To initiate the bill it was announced that public hearings would be begun early in June by the house ways and means committee. to be followed by cooperation in it's drafting with the senate finance committee. Presenta- tion of the measure to the house ip July was regarded as assured.
 One of the problems to be worked out first is the proportion of new taxes to bond issue authorizations About S20.O00. .0OO.00O must be provided to meet expenses of the coming year In a memorandum recently given to mem bers of congress the president sus- cested that 40 per cent should be raised by taxation. This would mean bond issues for some twelve billions and doubling of the approximately four billions levied in taxes this year.

War Summary
Rv Review Leased Wire,

(By Review Leased Wire)
 Germany's great oenffsive of the western front has been resumed.
 With only brief artillery prepara- tion. two blows have been struck Ey the teuton armies, which have been reorganized since disastrous losses were inflicted on them by the French and British during the Picardy and Flanders battles in March and April.
 One attack was on the line from VoormeZeele 10 Locre, southwets Of Ypres; the other no a 8 mile front from PinOn, north of SoissOnsi to Rheims. This is known as the Aisne sector.
 In Flanders the Germans have gained virtually nothing but further south the Berlin official statement claims that the German crown princes troops have carried the whole ridge of the Chemin Des Danes and nov are fighting on the Aisne river.
 French Hold Trenches
 The attack in Flanders is against positions taken by the French on May 20. when they 'recaptured Bruloose and Locre and strengthened their line on each side of hill number A. which they had retaken few days before.
 On the Aisne front the present bat tie recalls the fearful fighting of las. summer along the Chemin Des Danes. where for weeks the German crown prince hurled his men against the French positions only to see them crushed and beaten. Last year 75 di- visions were engaged in the German attacks along this line
 The attack is really in the nature Of a line strengthening operation.
 It is being launched from Laon as a center and is aimed at the elbow in the line formed during the fighting

CANOUFLACE USED BY ATTORNEY WHO DIED BY SUICIDE
T. P. Hart Riddles Car With Bullets Before Ending Own Life; Letters Disclose Mo- tive for Deed.

What at first was looked upon as a case Of murder in the death of At torney T. p. Hart of Douglas has now been definitely determined to be a case of suicide.
 The tragedy took place six miles east of Tombstone midway between that city and the Cowan ranch on what is known as the McNeal valley road 10 Douglas, yesterday morning. At g. o'clock Coroner Fowler, who is justice of the peace, at Tombstone, had passed the same spot or his way into Tombstone and Harte had not yet been there
 Shortly before 10 o'clock. B. w. Johnson. who was returning to his home in McNeal after being excused from jury duty in Tombstone. dis covered Harte leaning over the side of his car. Closer examination showed that he was in a dying condition. The car was spattered with blood. Brain matter was oozing from a gaping wound in the head. The bullet entered the right temple and came out above the left ear.
 Doctor Arrives
 Johnson hurried back to Tombstone and notified the sheriff's office, Cor oner Fowler and Dr. H. Fl. Hushart. The physician hurried out and Harte still breathing, was brought back to Tombstone, where he died at 11:2O. He lived, therefore. a little less than two hours after being shot.
 As soon as the word was brought 10 Tombstone the Sherif's office and the county attorneys office got busy on the case. Sheriff Guy Welch had just arrived here when he received the word and with Deputy Sheriff James Cannon left at once for the scene of the tragedy and from there they went to Douglas, accompanied by Assis- tant County Attorney Bruce Stephen son. At Douglas they ascertained that he had made a win and left everything to Messers Boyle and Pickett and to his stenographer, Miss Edna Collins. In a letter that he left he stated that he was going to kill himself
 With this information at hand the officers started back to the scene of the tragedy to try and clear up the mystery of the shots of a g caliber pistol that had been found to have penetrated the car from both sides and through the windshield. About a mile from there he was found. the officers found that he had stopped the car and getting out had walked around the car and fired the shots into the machine and then thrown the gun away. It was found a short distance from the car. He had then started the car and ran to the place where he was found. The car dis
