Los Angeles. Cal, Aug. 2O.-Across the
Tehacapi Mountain lies peace Charles Z.
Hughes crossed the mountain sometime
during the night into Southern California
and arriving in Los Angeles at 9:45 a. m
found regulars and Progressives dwell
ing in political unity.
At the wish of Mr.. Hughes himself,
made in New York some time ago. but
disregarded in San Francisco, the Old
Guard leaders here have agreed with the
Progressive leaders on a ffty-ffty rep
resentatlon in the reception to the Repub-
iican candidate in Los Angeles. 1t is a
mere truce. say many wiseacres.
The chief factor of the situation
however, is that Mr. Hughes is not
being embarrassed by any open break
and the necessity of choosing upon
which of the factions he will bestow
his smiles.
Demonstration of Harmony
For instance when Hughes arrived
here this morning, Gen. Harrison
Gray Otis, a flre-eating Old Guards
man and E. T. Earl, one of the Pro-
gressive leaders leaped forward stimuli
taneously as members Of the COM
mittee, reached forward and gasped

both sides will work hard to make to-
morrow nights meeting a success. For
this occasion under the split-even plan
