The steel and equipment of the Northern Mississippi Logging Road, better known as the line of the Nor- thland Pine company, which has been purchased entire by the Jonmes Pur- chasing Agency, Minneapolis, will all be removed and shipped to Canadian and western United States points be- fore the ice goes out in the spring, the work of hauling it across to Jenk- ins on the Minnesota and Interna- tional, being done by team, the con- tract for which has been taken by ‘Wesley Curo of Jenkins and W. B. Jones of Sylvan. A total of 43,000 tons comprises the Curo-Jones con- tract. The removal of this old logging road will greatly inconvenience the settlers along the line and will also have a tendency to force down the price of acreage property something is done at once by the land companies who own and con- vicinity. The opinion has been expressed that unless trol large tracts in the a portion of the steel could be re- tained on the ground and a small amount of capital would be sufficient to connect the south end of the old logging road at Cross Lake with Merrifield on the Minnesota and In- ternational, twelve miles north of This would be a gigantic boom to the settlers and would also mean the development of one of the richest sections of farm land in Nor- thern Minesota. Brainerd. IT SOUNDS GOOD. Sweeping reductions on almost every known variety of merchandise have been made in freight rates by |- the Interstate Commerce Commission. This action by the commission marks the end of the great rate cases, and affecting, as it does, nearly every railroad in the country, appears to mark a complete victory for the ship- ping public in the long fight for lower cost of transportation. To the consumer the action of the commission ought to be significant as necessarily means that the consumer is going to pay an additional cost for the lux- uries and necessities of life. Some idea of the extent of the real concern of the public in the matter is illustrated by the fact that the commission refused to permit pro- posed advances in class freight rates increased freight rates in official classification territory ag- gregating among the railways in the territory approximately $27,000,000 a year. In the case involving the increases by the railroads in Western trunk line territory the commission also de- clined to approve the: propoged ad- vances. ' This action on the part of the In- terstate Commerce Commission has caused the heads of the different rail- road companies to say pessimistic things but on the whole the railroads are taking their medicine in .good grace, e 0f course the inability of the roads to increase their earnings ‘will, in some instances, result in curtailment of expenses, further made necessary by the recent increase of wages of employes. Some of the weaker roads undoubtedly will be inconven- ienced but generally speaking the railroads probably will struggle along and in some way, as has always been the case, pile up a fat stack on net earnings, while at the same time the public will continne to eniny the hen- efit of what, let us hope for: the sake of justice to all, are reasonable freight rates Made Him Cross. “I made my husband cross this aft- ernoon,” said Mrs. Caller. “How was that?” queried Mrs. Ho- mer, “He was on the opposite side of the street, and I beckoned him :to come | over,” explained the other.

The Word “Chap.” “Chap” is simply an abbreviation ot chapman, the merchant of former days. and is derived from the Anglo-Saxon ‘“ceap,” a bargain. The word almost brings before us the loud voiced “cheap Jack” as he cries his wares in the cheaping or market. Chap seemns to have come into common use at the end of the sixteenth century and is rarely’ mentioned in books before 1700. Johnson does not recognize it, though Steele uses it in 1712 in the Spectator (“If you want to sell, here is your «chap”), and it is found in Bafley’s Dic tionary, 1731. Its original meaning of a buyer or seller still lingers in the dialects of many counties. Coupled with the adjectives old, young, little, poor, it was and is used in familiar | language, as is its relative, a queer “customer.” Todd, 1818, affirms that a good chap meant one to whom credit _The Moss Troopers.
