when go through this state, particularly
that part south of the cities and see the mag
nificent farms that have been made, l can
hardly realize that it is the same country that
l saw at the close of the war" said Mr..
Roach, speaking i'll a reminiscent strain.
"The progress made has been simply won
derful," he continued, land more than ever
convInces me that Minnesota is the greatest
state in the Union. And the real develop
ment of the state has only commenced.
When the whalebaeks they are now building
at Superior carry our products direct to
Europe, there will be few states that will
surpass Minnesota / look for wonderful
growth in the farming DISTRICTS ~ the next
ten years. which. of course, will insure more
business for the Twin Cities, and they will
grow accordingly"

CONGRESSMAN Nils p Haugen. of Black
River Falls Wis, dropped into the city yes
terday and spent the afternoon at meeting
of the Red Wing g. Superior Land COM
pany, in which he is a stockholder. Mr..

wisconsin member having frequently tripped
them up in matters affecting the cities at the
head of the lakes Besides representing Su-
perior in congress Mr.. Haugen has long been

Ex-Commissioner John Byers, of Hastings,
dropped into st. Paul yesterday in the
course of his rambles, and babe farewell to
Representative Roach before his departure
for North Dakota Messrs. Byers and Roach
were uuIuDeI VI ESdIo dSO AtSulnOio VI OhO
board of county commissioners OF Dakota
county, and although differing i'll politics
have always been firm5friends. SO high an
estimation, indeed, had Mr. Roach and his
Democratic fellow members of the board of
Mr.. Byers that they chose him chairman. Mr..
Byers doesn't take much stock i'll the cry for
''cheap money"
''In Hastings the money is being poured into
the banks SO rapidly by the farmers that the
banks hardly know what to do with it, said
Mr.. Byers, land it is cheap enough for those
who have security. This crop is going to
make things wear a different look in the
farming sections. Those farmers who are
mortgaged will be able to pay off at least
part of their Indebtedness, and make it pos
sible for them to continue the balance at
lower rates of interest"
