WANTS HIS SHARE.
Has Wrong Idea Of the Farmers Free
List Bill.

The Washington correspondent OF
The State says there is much miscon-
ception in some sections regarding
the true meaning of the free list bill,
recently passed by the house. A
member from South Carolina receiv-
ed a letter from a constituent saying
that he had been waiting patiently
many years for the Democrats to get
control of the house, SO that every
thing would be t'free."
He had read of the bill and was
glad that hereafter he would not
have to pay for anything. He asked
his representative to send horse,
to take the place Of the one that re-
Gently died, a dozen DINING room
chairs, some new chinaware, a new
carpet for the parlor and a few
other incidentals.
After closing the letter be added a
postscript in which he said that he
hoped the congressman would not
forget to send the "old LADY, new
sewing machine to take the place OF
one she had used many years.
The recipient Of the letter was
touched by the appeal, but had to
reoly that IL the writer got the
things he wanted he would probably
have to pay good American dollars
for them.
