I've Done My Bit on the Border

I've done my bit on the border
I'm in Gods country again,
I've had my fill of the Border.
OF greasers and border men,
I've eaten the dirt of Texas,
I've drank of the Rio Grande,
I've grubbed mesquite in the cursed
heat,
(The Lord never made the landD
Pve seen all there is to the border,
I've felt all there is to feel,
I've done my time in sea Of slime,
I've lost all they didn't steal,
Pve done my bit on the border,
At Brownsville and Llano Grande,
Pve hiked and sweat in the heat and
wet
From Pharr to the end of the land.
I've done the camps at Mercedes,
At Donna and San Benite,
I've lain in the dust and gnawed
crust,
At Funston's judgment seat,
I've eaten my meals with reptiles,
I've quartered with bugs galors-
In a land where things are all made
with stings,
floor.
I've dug in the blasted trenches,
The air was a hundred hells-
I've charged in the jungled cactus,
To the music of Rebel yells.
I've carried a pack in the jungle,
Till it cut me down to the blood,
I've sweltered and lay like a thing of
clay,
In a slithering swamp Of mud.
Ive risen at five in the morning
At the sound of the reveille,
I've shaved all day for a newsboy's
pay
Till the night would set me free.
I've lived the life of a soldier,
No chance to beat it" or shirk-
And the life of soldier, believe me,
Is little but damned hard work.
I've eaten the food of a soldier,
Hardtack and Mulligan stew,
Bacon and beans-and a touch of
green's
But, Lord, they were scarce and
fewi
Pve followed the flag Of my country
In khaki and plain o. D.
And up to date Pm standing straight
In a way that is good to see.
I've done my bit on the border,
I've had py fill of the same;
But | wouldn't trade the friends I've
made
For all I've lost in the game.
I've had my fill of the border,
OF greasers and border men,
I've done my bit aand | stand to quit,
And never take on again.
But seem to know, when the bugles
blow
And / hear the reveile,
That my blood will heat and my
pulses beat
No matter where may be.
And I'll yearn to go-with burning
yearn
That only the soldier feels:
To slave and sweat in the heat and
wet,
To straighten and kick my heels,
But I've done my bit on the border,
And now, thank God, I'm free
Although / know when the bugles
blow
They'll have call for me.

Captain Third Iowa Infantry, Com

Statements to House Show the
i Unprecedented Total Of
\ $1,626,439, 209.63.
FIGURES STARTLE MEMBERS
Chairman Fitzgerald BIames G.
O. P. Neglect, and GiIIett
Democratic Extravaganza.

Statements made to the House to-
day by the ranking members Of the
Committee on Appropriations show
that the total appropriations Of the
present session reached the unprece-
denied total of s1.626, 439, 209.63.
In addition contract authorizations
were carried that will eventually call
Tor an outlay of s231.945.275. OF which
amount $225.266.000 is for coast de-
Tense and naval purposes.
Chairman Fitzgerald. of the Appro-
priations Committee. and Congress-
man Gillett of Massachusetts,, the
ranking Republican. presented a
statement of the appropriations. They
agreed as to figures. but were at odds
concerning the, placing of response
bility for the enormous totals Mr..
Fitzgerald said the large appropria-
tons were due to the fact that world
conditions are abnormal and that
many millions were necessary for
hurried national defense.
Blames Democratic Extravagance.
Mr.. Gillett declared that Democratic
extravaganza was largely responsible
for the big appropriation bills and
that not all of the blame could be
put upon the national defense items.
Chairman Fitzgerald presented a
table showing that the total appro-
priations for military and naval pur-
poses. and for additional seacoast de-
fsnses at this session, aggregate
3Ss5.7os.s23.
Il make no criticism of the appro-
priations for national defense" said
Mr.. Gillett but the same amount of
money might have been arranged to
bring better results. But II would
seem that In a crisis. when such vast
sums Of money are suddenly concen-
trated upon one branch of the Gov
eminent, saving might be had else
where.
THAT. at least. might be expected
from a party of professed economists
Mr.. Gillett said the President had
changed front on national defense and
suddenly recommended large appropria-
lions of which he had disapproved pre-
viously.
Charges Republican Neglect.
Last year the Democratic party was
extravagant even by It's own standard, -
he said. yet the increase this year over
last is $511, 500. 1877"
Mr.. Gillett said the increase in the or.
binary civil expenses of the Govern.
ment. In which there should have beer
. saving, was about 1lh per cent, OF
$s7.oOe,0O0.
Chairman Fitzgerald declared that tn,
Republican party had neglected the de-
mands of national defense for years anc
had not listened to the advice of mill
tery experts. In consequence. he said
the burden had been imposed upon on,
session to provide for preparedness.
A general review OF the appropriation,
OF the session was made by both mem
bers and the staggering totals they an
nounced startled Congressman, although
the membership was in part prenarer
Tor the recapitulation. The appropria
tons last year were 81. III OH OH
