AFTER A sUBTREAsURY LOAN.
A Maryland Farmer Who Wanted to Borrow
From Uncle sam.

The teachings Of the Farmers Alliance are
beginning to bear fruit in this region. tall
man. redolent of the soil and dressed in the
unmistaksble garb Of a farmer, walked into the
Office of the deputy fourth auditor of the treas
ury yesterday morning with apologize air.
He WAS so evidently seeking for information
that the official behind the desk arose at once
to greet him and escort him TO a seat The
farmer took off his hat, passed his fingers
through his hair, sighed and then asked: lis
this the fourth auditors Officer
When told that he had made no mistake he
asked again: "Is this the place that has charge
of the loans. the per cents?'
The surprised official answered that he knew
of no such place. whereat the farmers face fell
and he seemed puzzled. he trieo hard to make
himself understood and finally evolved the
question: where am i to so TO get loar from
the government"
The government don't lopn money" was
the reply. lit sometimes borrows money but
il Meier lpans TT least lot at present. Are you
thinking OF tbs suD:Iessary plan OF the Farm
els Aihance?'
The grangers fsee lighted up again at this
and he eagerly responded That's it, that's it.
l want 20 borrow some money from the sub
treasury. I've got SIS in my pocket, and
want to pay years interest with il and get all
the principal that will buy for one year. can
use the money right handy just now and need
it right quick. Do Won think can get IT to-
day? I've got right good farm up home that
you can take security on"
NO am quite sure you can't get it today.
If you wait few months you may be able TO,
after the bill proposed by the alliance becomes
a law. but L wouldn't advise YOU TO wait if you
need the money. Where do you liver
up in Hartford county. Maryland. A man
told me the other day L could get all the
money L could pay interest for if applied
mornin' lookin' for the right place"
well, you've struck the right place to learn
that there is no such thing a per cent loan,
and you had better go home to Hartford county
and tell all your friends that they can't borrow
money from Uncle Sam. Good morning
And the granger went sadly out of the room
swearing vengeance on the man who sent him
on his wild-goose chase.
