REBEL S M|XEDARMY
How zapata Recruited His Fol-
lowers in Mexico.
Every outlaw and Fugitive From Jus
tIeo Was Enlisted by "Tho At
tia Of Republic" 40 Peons
Call Bandit.

Mexico City.--When zapata Hrst re-
cruitod his followers they told me no
had drawn to himself every outlaw
and fugitive from justice who up to
that time had been hiding In the More
los hills or In tho vast underground
caves Of Cacnhulmilpa, near Cuorna'
vaca.
Later, when Zapata and his men
took Cucrnayaca ZapNta opened the
Jail and penitentiary, and, putting n
good rino and Il handful Of cartridges
into each eonylct's hands, ho bade
them help themselves TO horses wher'
ever they could find them, As thoro
are several horse ranches and rich
hOelendRs with celebrated racing
studs In the immediate Vicinity OF
CuernsyaeN, Il did not take long be-
fore all those new recruits won't
mounted on the best Of horses, as was
here to be seen,
After the great review OF ZapNtn's
bandit forces Senior MOdOro commit
ted tho colossal blundeF, M II turned
out TO bo, Of paying off all OF zapata's
mon FOR their alleged services In the
Madero revolution, without putting an
armed guard over them to sec that
they actually turned In their rlnes and
cartridges before returning 10 their
homes
The result Of this was that Bmlllano
zapata simply drew tho sum OF $4,000
pesos nol usldo fer himself and his
followers, without bothcrlng 70 turn
IN more than u few stacks Of arms,
after which no announced that he and
his mon would not give any more
arms unless they received twice the
amount OF tho originally stipulated
sum.
After this the misunderstanding
between the newly constituted gov
ernment authorities and the 2apata
brothers grew apaee, zapata was
summoned to the capital lie came
dehantly surrounded by mn armed
bodyguard, In hls brief stay at one OF
tho principal hotels IN Mexico city he
liyonod things up by shooting out all
tho windows Of the eantlna because
they would not serve him with drinks
after . IN the morning
on the following day no aud his
companions e0mmNndeored eome hall

De, and i. none such, then
through the national committee
man or same dependable friend
or friends Under this arrange
meut Representatives are de-
pended upon to recommend post
masters 10 their own districts
while SenI9tors are depended up
on to recommend postmasters in
Gongressi ldi districts not rep
resented by ongressmen of the
same political faith as the Presi-
dent. senators are also de-
pended upor to recommend for
marshalships and offices of that
kind, including departmental po-
sltl1nS ami places in the consular
and diplomatic service, and in
fact all officers not local. Of
course, as a rule, the Senators
consult with Representatives in
these matters, all trying to do
the most possible for their con-
stituents.
e What scheme for selecting
postmasters, etc. President Viii
son and his Cabinet may adopt
is wholly conjectural. Some adj
vocate one plan and some an
other. Consequently it might
be best for those intending to be
applicants to let matters rest
until the situation clears up
somewhat; but where one or
more %aspirants for a particular
place start ia to secure s.enars
to petitions, recommendations
etc. it might be wise for all as
pirants to do so too.
1t has been figured out by
some Of the newspaper CORES
pondents IN the national capital
that Mr.. Wilson, when he en-
|ters the White House on March
4, will find hat he has the pow
err to fill directly 10,839 govern
