DIRECTOR OF MINT
TALKS POLITICS
Says State Of Iowa is Safely Re.
publican and Will Be Solid
for Roosevelt.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. July o1.-Georse
y Roberts. director of the mint, has re-
turned from a business trip to his home
in Iowa and says that the Republicans
of that State are unit in supporting
President Roosevelt and his policies. in
Guiding that of Cuban reciprocity. There
is every reason to expect that the State
will return a solid Republican delegation
- co,ereee' said Mr. Roberts ''The
people are in the mood to do this.
president Roosevelt has the confidence
and cordial support Of practically every
BODY in the State Democrats and Repub-
lcans alike They believe in his integ-
ritv of purpose and ability. and expect
TO see him renominated and reelected.
There will be no opposition in the State
to a solid delegation for him to the Re
publican National Convention in 1904:
Sentiment is with the President upon all
the issues with which he has identified
himself
.The people of Iowa believe in generous
treatment for the Cuban people and gov
eminent. and in making a start for re-
strictive legislation that will control the

THE crop situation is just the reverse
of what ii was at this time a year ago.
Then the crops were suffering from a
severe drought Recently there have
been excessive and destructive rains. The
conditions have grown better, however.
than they were ten lays ago. The State
rallied last year and produced fait'
crop of corn. Although there was some
| damage by the rains, the weather has
now cleared. and there is every reason
to expect a full average of corn. unless
there is a change in the situation.
The most notable feature of the bust
ness situation in the West is the DreVa-
lent SPECULATION in farm lands West
and northwest of Chicago farm lands
have advanced in value an average OF
more than 80 per cent The farmers
have been enjoying high prices long
time and have money to invest. This
has led to an increased demand for lands
and the movement has attained specula-
TIVE proportions.
.Almost every town and cross roads
is deeply absorbed il the topic of the
price of farm lands. There is great
movement of farmers and spectators into
Canada to buy the cheap wheat lands Of
Manitoba and the provinces west of it.
Ry the close of another season there
will be more residents in that region
who arc from the United States than
FROM, any other region. a great deal OF
canital is being absorbed by this land
movement. and this accounts for the
advance of interest rates. and the move
ment of money this early in the season. >
