WASHINGTON, June 30. A re
conciliation between Villa and Car

tainly of a formidable counter revolu
tion by the Hueristas has forced the
step toward bringing the two lead

a strong provisional government, the
administration would recognize it.
The arrival of Gent-ral Angeles and
the attempt of Colonel Aguilar and

taken as strong Indications aa at

Bowling Green is acquiring a son-in-law

Pike county, except, perhaps a few
mere republicans, are attending the
wedding. True, there are some na

Bowling Green is inclined to regard
them as Intruders at a family affair.
Outsiders, except prominent demo
crats, and home-guard republicans
aren't held very highly In this strong
hold of the houn' dawg, the former
being regarded with suspicion and
the latter with pity, because Pike
county always "votes straight."
The speaker of the house was un
derstood to regard his new son-in-law
rather highly, but Howling Green
withheld Judgment until It went out
and picked up Thomson's rword.
