MExIcO,s STAR BANDIT

Ramon Jurado In the october Alae
 World Magazine.
 By the time we left Yautepec Zapata' $ 900 had grown to 5000, and in the 30 miles between the two towns they spared neither house nor man over strip five miles wide. It was as if horde of human loeusts had passed through the land. devouring as they went. At the hacienda of Acatlan, where there is a village of some 800 souls, Zapata decided to hold a bull fight, inasmuch as we ar rived there on Sunday. A stockade was built by the hacienda laborers, working under the muzzles of the rifles of Zapa- ta s men, and a. huge post erected in the center.
 What are you going to do with the post?" ] asked zapata, as we sat on our horses watching the erection of the bull ring.
 That is the special box for the bull fight" he replied; ''it will be occupied by Senor Horcasitas." The manager of the plantation, a Spaniard, was named Horcasitas-and zapata's vengeance has ever been directed against the hated Spaniards, who are looked upon as op- pressors by all Mexicans of the lower class.
 On the day of the fight Horcasitas was brought from his home, stripped naked, and bound to the post, with his feet just below the height to which the bull could reach with his horns. Then Horcasitas' wife and two daughters were placed in a box built up on the side of the stock ade just opposite their husband and father and compelled to watch his agony. Guards prevented the women leaving the box, and when they tainted, as the two girls did, they were revived by none too gentle hands pouring raw shgarcane al- cohol into their mouths. Both girls were both went the way of all girls who fell into zapata's hands One stabbed herself to death: the second and older girl died two three days later.
 But to return to the bull fight. A black bull from the fields of the hacienda was turned into the ring and a red-hot saber point jabbed into his shoulders to make him fight. Meanwhile brilliant red cloth had been bound around the feet of the
  men, waving another red cloth. led the bull around the ring twice, and then, when pain and anger had frenzled the animal, drew him directly to the red cloth on the stake. The bull lowered his head and hit the stake, shaking it front top to bottom. He seemed to realize that he had struck too low, and, backing away, charged again, this time hurling his head into the air to catch the tormentng red rag. One horn, entering the victim $ foot split it from heel to toe, and, as his wild screams of agony arose, a Zapatista shot him through the right .hip with q rifle. This was more than I could stand, and I left the ring, but I learned after ward that Horcasitas's body, riddled with bullets, was eventually wrapped in the red cloth and given to the bull for play thing, after which Zapata himself shot the animal dead with a single shot from his pistol.

Nineteenth street is not in the line of my every day travel, but as I passed along that thoroughfare recently I mo- ticed a. sign, "John DIS Restaurant said professional man.
 "A few months ago had read that the Standard oil company was about to es- tablish a chain of restaurants where sub stantial food would be served at very moderate prices. There was to be one such restaurant as the story went, in each city. The purpose was to find new field for investment of some of the Stand ard oil surplus. Those who manage that great business interest are shrewd men, and they might rightly conclude that as everyb body had to eat the restaurant business was safe from an investor g point of view. At first some of the l knockers said that we would have an other monopoly as an outgrowth of the Rockefeller millions, but that idea was absurd. for according to the plan as out lined in the papers. only one restaurant was to be opened in any one city.

The Mexican situatIon

l q see by The Age-Herald that the | state department at Washington has hopes of improved conditions In Mexico | following Madero's offer of amnesty to | Orozco," said business man yesterday. | For my part, I believe that. interven- tion in Mexico by the United States is only matter of time. The present revo-
 lution under the leaderships of Orozco
 and Zapata is far more serious to Mex
 ico than we realize in the United States. l "I have a friend who is employed by a mining company in the state of So- 1 nora and in letters to me he indicates
 that conditions are far worse than. pie
 tured in American newspapers. He states
 this is d,ie to the fact that gathering 1 revolutionary news In Mexico is not by any means popular task. It Is not only
 dangerous for very obvious reasons, but he says that both the rebels and the fed
 eral government take every precaution possible to keep the real status of af- | fairs concealed And, strange to say, my friend applies the same reason for both factions action. He states that the reb- l els fear intervention if real conditions be- come known in the United States because they believe it would mean the defeat
 of their plans, and the federal authorities i fear for the same reason.
 'aThe cementing of the relations and l Friendships of the old north and south after the civil war in this country was the greatest feat of statesmanship and | modern civilization have ever accom- plished, believe. Something of the same conditions now exist in Mexico; but peace
 cannot be established there between the
 factions because, first, they haven't got
 a man able enough to do it, and. second
 and most important, because the tenn
 perament of the Mexican people will not
 conduce to any peaceful arrangement"

THE TWO REPUBLICS

/ 1t is no time for jingoism as re-
lated TO the delicacy of the relation
shin between the United States ana
Mexico
On the other hand. it is time for
a careful weighing of the situation ana
for action without bombast. without
the spirit of aggression, but equally
without cowardice.
II is being claimed by some per-
sons that the big American interests
in Mexico are attempting to create
trouble between the two republics, that
stable government in Mexico will add
to the value of their possessions. and
the inference is that the United States
should keep its hands off Mexico, no
matter what depredations are commit
ted against our countryIren.
This position is not tenable. There
is no doubt the big interests went GU
of their way to strengthen DiaZ. There
is no question that those interests have
favored despotism of the rankest kind
in Mexico, but it is equally true thal
if the United States should intervene
in Mexico that despotic power that has
kept the people of the sister republic
in serfdom would be wiped out. and
the humblest citizen in the eyes OF the
law would be on an equality with the
most exalted.
II is also true that no nation, espe-
eially an enlightened nation, can al
ford TO allow its citizens and their
property in a foreign country 70 be
destroyed by the people of that for
eign power without taking steps TO
protect them.
The condition of affairs IN Mexico to-
day is such that intervention has be
come an absolute necessity. It IS no
longer a government tnat prevails
there-it is anarchy The nation has
ceased to be, and the greatest blessing
that can come to Mexico is for our
nation TO intervene and restore order.
to put an end to revolutions and bri-
gandage and in time put the control
of affairs in the hands of the people
of that land
Diaz put down the brigandage of a
previous day with strong hand, but
he held the people in subjection. and
while he did much for capital, he did
nothing 10 elevate his people
The United States alone possesses
the power to put an end TO the pre-
vailing anarchy and al the same time
put the people of Mexico on the road
TO advancement and prosperity. 1t is
clearly the duty of this nation TO per
form that work and the sooner it is
done the better it will be for all.
