Over the river that rippIes away
Is rosiest morning and meadows of May,
And the sweet bells ring o'cr the sound
ing tide
From the beautiful wales on the other
side:
Hearts that hunger and feet that roam
Over the river come home-come home.''
There is no signing. and never tear
Over the rivers tide. my dear,
What are the thorns of the weary way?
Over the river are blooms of May,
Moan of the heart and the soul op-
pressed?
Over the river are roses and rest,
Still ring the bells DER the darkened
In the light and bloom of the other side:
Hearts that hunger. and feet that roam.
Come home DER the rivers tide-come
home."
But We linger here and hope and fear,
When over the river is rest. my dear.
We linger here in the lonely years
And the song is sweeter for sighs and
tears.
And never a thorn at the weary feet. .
But is crowned and kissed by the roses
sweet.
The heart in the sunlight and shadow
dwe1ls
And only sighs as ii hears the BELLS
The bells that ring over the rivers tide
OF the beautiful wales on the other side
And We welcome the sigh and the fall O.
the tear. f .....
When over the river is rest, my dear.s

The naval personnel bill. which
passed the House of Representatives
last week. is the result Of 10 ycai s.
agitation. During all that time the
line and staff of the navy have been
warning. and Congress hhs been strug-
Cling to bring some system out of the
confusion and strife that would meet tie
reasonable demands Nf the contestants
and at the same time advance the In
terests Of the e;country. When the pro-
Visions Of the bill are examined. II
seems strange that 1t should have
taken so long to mature 1t. Some of its
most important features are the
amendments .mdde while the bill was
under consideration in the House.
But it must be said that the delay
was not the fault Of Congress. It ia
difficult to realize how bitter is the
strife. for it cannot be called rivalry
between the two factions In the navy.
Nor does the bill settle this strife. The
STAFF is given positive rank, but its
authority is still confined to its own
corps. Ii will be remembered how
severely an engineer criticised the line
officers OF the fleet at the battle of
Santiago. and showed how much more
expeditions and complete would have
been the victory had he and his brother
engineers commanded. instead. Well,
this engineer will not have bit more
authority in the next battle in which
he is engaged than he had at Santiago
The effort of the trainers of the bill
seems TO have been to pacify the con-
tending factions. without impairing the
efficiency of the navy
Neither the line nor the staff favors
those provisions which concern them in
relations of one to the other; but IL the
bill becomes law. there will be a
temporary lull in the struggle. which
will be a relief to outsiders and Con-
gress especially. The other provisions,
of the navy. will provoke discussion in
the Senate. The retirement provision
for officers Is one the advisability of
which can only be determined by ex-
perience. The amendment abolishing
prize money has been repeatedly adj
vocatcd by high authorities. There is
no more reason for robbery on the high
seas than on land. A sailor should
fight like a soldier for his country, and
not for booty. The amendment for
the retirement OF petty officers and en-
listed men is a most excellent one The
large increase of the marine corps is a
new departure, but il the marines are
available for service on shore, as well
as at sea. there can be no sound objec-
tion TO it. The Senate will probably
pass the BILL if only for the reason that
it is the best that can be had.
