He Wanted q Government Loan.

A Washington correspondent of the st. Louis
Globe Democrat is responsible for the following
story. The incident may be true, but we have
no doubt the correspondent has mixed up To-
calties. Hartford farmers are not quite so verdi
ant as this particular farmer appears TO have
been:
"Is this the place that has charge ofthe
Government loans-the per celts y' farmer
asked in the Office of the Fourth Auditor of the
Treasury yesterday. The clerk did not under
stand him.
"Where do 1 go to get a loan" the farmer
continued, fumbling away at his pocket with
one hand while he held his hat in the other.
"Oh." said the clerk, beginning to smile,
''the Government does not lend money" Then
he suggested, pityingly, You must be think
ing of The Alliance sub-treasury scheme"
"That's right" said the farmer. "It's the
sub-treasury 1 want" He drew from his
pocket a little roll of bills. "Here's SIS. Gin
me all the money that will pay interest on for
one year. You can take mortgage on my
farm"
The farmer stood expectantly, while the clerk
first looked him over and then demanded "Say,
my friend, where do you live anyway! Who
told you to come down here ~
"Up in Hartford county, Md" replied the
farmer. "a man told me If the elections went
all right | could get all of the money | wanted
from the Government at per cent. Isn't this
the place? I've been hunting all the morning
for it."
"Well," said the clerk. you've struck the
right place to find out somebody's been fooling
you. Go back to Hartford county and tell your
friends Uncle Sam is not in the lending bust
ness just yet."
The old farmer went away sorrowNl.
