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." C. K. KLUM.
