the coast to the gulf of St. Lawrence,
on the western shore of Hudson bay,
and about the bays and straits to the
north; then to the west around Alaska,
and still further along the Arctic
shores of the eastern continent. They
thus extend along the winding island
and mainland coast for more than 1O,-
600 miles, inhabiting narrow fringe of
country by the sea, and obtaining their
livelihood therefrom. More than 10000
miles of coastland are occupied by a
people who speak one language.
| But in Newfoundland there are tribes
which speak another tongue mixed
with the Eskimoan, while on the
southwest coast there are other tribes
speaking mixed tongues; and the same
is true of tribes inhabiting the north
ern coast of Asia If we call all these
! tongues Eskimoan, then the princi-
pal tongue is still homogeneous and a
common medium for the cOmmunica-
tion of tribes occupying, as have said,
more than 10000 miles of the most
difficult coast known to mankind.
While there is intercommunication it
is infrequent because of tho difficulties
and perils of Arctic navigation. Thus,
in all that shetch Of country there is
but one language. What are the condi-
tions under which this language has
been preserved in its integrity and
homogeneity? Simply these: The ter
ritory occupied by the people speaking
this language is cut off from the inte-
rior by an uninhabitable belt of glacial
land, so that the means Of communica-
tion are to be found mainly on the sea-
ward side The inhabitants, having
been distributed over this enormous
belt of coast from primitive tribe hav-
ing one language, have preserved that
language through all their vicissitudes
and stages of culture; while in the
southeast where the Eskimoan ter
ritory joins territory occupied by
tribes having other tongues, we find
mixed languages. The same facts ap
pear on thc southern coast Of
! Alaska, in languages differentiated
from the main stock by admixture Will
other languages. With the exception
pointed out, the Eskimoan languag,
| is the purest language known on this
hemisphere. So far as they have beer
studied, all other languages are com

many.-Forum.
