MEDFORD .MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. FRIDAY, MARCH 25, 1010. V FOR NEW STATE NAME? Easter In The Churches C. K. Klum, Pioneer, Sounds Warn Ing Against Adoption of "Wild, Ro mantic Namo of Doubtful Orltjln." To tho Editor: In yow paper of tho ICth loot. I find v criticism of what I had cald of tho vrord "Siski you," with tho namo of my old frlond, O. C. Applogato, mentioned as tho authority, though not signed. Ho Is mentioned as having exten sive Information on Indian loro and historical tndltlons; disputes my Statement that Siskiyou Kvltan means a "bobtail horso" In tho Chinook or Jargon Indian .tongue, but does not give the wcvds for bob-tallod horso in tho Chinook. Had he -louo so tho dispute wouM 1 avo been settled. But tho reason for not giving It Is there Is none to giro, and tho only way to express It would 1)0 to take your knife out, rilso a horso's tall and xnako the motion of cutting It off. "What Is said of tho old Frenchman construing "rock" and 'atono" In tho French iangutro to sound Hko Siski you Is too far fetched, as two Intel ligent Freno' men of AsHand havo told me It cannot be done. Mr. APPlteato has considerable Jcnowledgo of th,o Slsklycus, so has tho writer, who had crossed It many times before o. C. over sar tho moun tains, could speak tho Chhmok fairly well much earlier than ho. "Siskiyou" sounds pretty, but "a roso would smell as sweet by any oth er name." Society IS always undor obligation to its predecessors; thoso who had! acted wisely and mado tho path Bmooth for their successors. Wo havo lad men who exhibited a flsdom and prescience for our wel are that places us under a debt of latitude, and their names should bo Jven to our new states. Jcfforson, In accepting Bonaparte's offer for the sale of the "Louislnana Purchase" without any constitutional authority, ac he admits, for doing It, placed us under such obligation. Act ing without loss of time, ho at once organized and sent off tho Lewis and Clark exploring expedition to cinch and bind tho bargain. And the men selected to lead the expedition did their work ? Itb tho heroic determln ation of Jefferson. Greatest cxplora tion In Arnorlca. Our history Is so fu.l of excellent men that It would take time to men tion them. Tho name "Incoln" Is nearest and dearest to tho American heart. , His growth from the 1 ottos t ranks of labor to the front rank In states manship brought him in touch with all. Such a name as his given to a move ment for a new state would secure votes In California, Oregon and con gross for It that could not be moved to Its support by any wild, romantic name of doubtful origin, as "Siski you."
