! Orchard gets the name of ilaci, from
the RecS. because they think that wore
sounds like the English name. ant
it has in the Rec the meaning OF
Branch. SO for some reason or fancy
the Shoshonc girl was called the BIRD
Woman There is no doubt about thi,
name or the spelling of it. Washing
ton Mathews, I collaboration Of the
Smithsonian Institute, published in
1913 a short account of the Grosvcntrc
people, together with a partial gram
mar and dictionary OF the language.
The words for bird and woman arc
given 4 place in this dictionary We
thus get for the name THE Bird Wo-
man Isakakawias The dotted S at
the end stands for IN in English and
makes the compound word proper
name 1t is equivalent to the definite
article the Angliciziny this a little
to suit those using only the English
alphabet and unfamiliar with the SCI
entitic use of the vOwcl>, and leaving
off Of the initial t sound, which is
hard for the English tongues, we have
the spelling in English 'Sakakawca
During the past thirty years have
made numerous additions in manu-
script to Matthews book and also some
corrections. but have found no oc-
casion to correct the spelling of the
words in question.
"On examining the reprint of the or
iginal Lewis and Clark journals, we
find that Lewis made four different at
tcmpts to spell this name, and Clark
tries to do the same also in four diff
fcrent ways. They were evidently aim
ing at the name we give, and now have
III common use among our Grosventre
people. But they were not linguists
and not accurate students of the lam
guagc and had no alphabet suited to
the language, but tried to represent the
sounds by the use of the English alpha
bet. Consequently they used C for the
k sound, and hard Z also for X and
added h and r without stint to help
out. The j sound is not in the Gros-
vcntre language. The hard e is very
ncarl' the same as X to some ears, but
is not the correct pronunciation
In the original Lewis and Clark
journals the name of The Bird Woman
is spelled by Clark as follows: >ahkah-
garwea, Sahcahgagwca. Sarcargatwea
and Sahcahgahweah; and Lewis has
still other combinations in Sahcahgah-
wea, Cahcahgarwea, Sahcargarweah and
Sahcahgar Wea.
1.-THE spelling of the name as SAGA
jawea is wrong on the face of it, as
that is the Shoshone name for Boat
Launcher and would have absolutely
no application to Sakakawea'
The Federation of Womcn's clubs
have taken the latter way of spelling
the name and have made it so in their
printed matter and the lettering on the
monument will be lettered in that WAY.

REPUBLICANS OF Ward
COUNTY ENTHUSIASTIC

thusiastic meetings ever held was
that which took place in the Magic

harmony prevailed and the enthusiasm
was of the very best. Stirring speach-

others, and reports read showed that
the sentiment for the election of Hon.
C. A. Johnson was strong and that the
Minot gubernational candidate could
count on rousing MAJORITY in Ward.

SHORT HISTORY Of LIFE and
WORKS Of SAKAkAWEA INDIAN
GUIDE With Lewis AND CLARK

The Indians of the state are very
are taking considerable interest i'll the
coming unwilling and dedication of the
monument. and there is no question
but there will be a representative gath
ering of men high in the councils of
the tribe.
Sakakawta was of royal family in
the Shoshonc tribe and being the Sis
ter of chief has always held high
position in the stories and legends of
the Dakota Indians
There have been efforts made to
discover the fate of the son Of Saka
kawea, who shared the trip to the
coast and while the records show that
he was located once when he was about
- years of age, nothing is known of
his fate, but it is suspected that he
wcl't to Canada and from there wall
dered into the northwestern part of
the country with party of trappers
and ended his days there. After being
discharged from the service of Lewis
and Clark. Sakakawea and her hus-
band made their home in this state and
in the next few years were the par
cntS of several other children.
In connection with the dedication of
the Sakakawea monument here during
the week by the North Dakota FEEDER
alton Of Womcn's clubs, there is con-
siderable interest aroused over the
proper spelling of the name which has
been varously given out as Saskaka
wra. Sacaawea and Sakakawca. Rev.
III .hn {/,r t1,,rt, 1,,c
been a missionary worker among the
Grosventrc Indians, has contributed =
short discussion of the spelling of the
word to the State Historical society.
Alr. Hall is at the present time the
only living authority on the Grosventre
language and his opinion on the matter
in question has far greater weight than
any other or all other So-callcd auth
critics. many of them having made
some statement regarding the proper
spelling of the Indiap name for the
Bird Woman Mr. Hall says:
"Sakakawea, the Bird Woman. was
a captive among the Gro>ventres and
had been taken to wife by French
the interpreter for Lewis and Clark
when they were in their winter camp
in lS04-5. She was Shoshonc by
birth, but being young she became like
one of her captors. Her Grosvcntre
captors gave her name. which may
have been a translation of her Sho-
shonc name. but is more likely to have
been entirely different. a stranger
coming among the Grosvcntre tribe of
Indians or any other tribe at once
receives 4 name. such as may suit their
fancy. got the name of Ho- waste,

On October IL, at the state capitol
grounds the statue of Sakakawea, the
Bird Woman, the Shoshone Indian wo-
man adopted into the Grosven,re tribe
when she was child and who later
acted as guide for the Lewis and Clark"
expedition to the Pacific coast, will be
unveiled
The statue, which is of bronze and II
feet in heghth was modelled by Paul
Crucnell a Chicago sculptor and has been
paid for BY the Federated Womans Clubs
of North Dakota will be erected on th>
east side of the capitol grounds and will
be looking west and pointing toward the
Mississippi river The model is that of a
typical Indian woman and has all the
trappings OF the old day Indian Her
papoose is strapped to her back.
According to the original Journals 't
the Lewis and Clark expedition Sakaka-
wea was captured by the Grosvcntrc tribe
from the Shoshoncs i'll southwestern
Montana in 1890 when she WIS i
young girl. History says that a
few years later she was purchased w a
I'rcnchman by the name of CharEon-
ncau and was made his wife. 'lst one
month after the birth of her first >h!'c
she started out for the Pacific coast as
Il guide and interpreter for the cNpc-
dition. She carried her child Ill the
way both on the outgoing and c>''"cn-
ing trip and was valuable aid fer tn"
members OF the party in making
friends with strange tribes of !n'iia1s
and in guiding Lewis and Clark to
watering places along the route. The
expedition started from Rosebush VII
lagc, near where Stanton in VI rcer
county is now located. in the spring of
of 1875 and did not return until Aug
ust of 1906. Sakakawca and Char

WAR AGAINST GRAFT

NM HEN Andrew Carnegie wept over
w Pittsburg he realized the thor
oughneSs of the graft infection
Character, reputation, record, respon-
sibility-all had gone down to defeat
before covetousness. 1t was the most
humiliating exposure of the pitiable
weakness of human nature our har-
assed civilization has as yet mad to
endure.
The bank directors implicated in the
| colossal scandal represent 5000, 100000
in wealth, and among them are officers
of the Steel corporation, the Westing-
house company and the Carnegie insti-
tute.
The exposure has only been begun.
With the approval of several hundred
business men, the Voters league has
made a new contract with Wilson, the
detective.
Greed is the cause of graft in Pitts
burg, and everywhere else. No longer
will it be possible to say only the
poor and the miserable and the natur-
ally depraved steal, and then only be-
help it. Alas there is a point at which
human consciousness of right and
wrong becomes confused by reason of
desire for gain, and ordinary processes
of reasoning are either suspended or
perverted.
Analysed and traced back to its first
principles, doubtless the Pittsburg
graft scandal sprang from the root of
all evil, which is the love of money. As
long as the prize of life is financial
gain there will be scandals. The only
real gain is Goodness, with content
ment, and the only real national honor
is based upon righteousness, which ex-
alteth a nation.
One of the causes of the Pittsburg
scandal is the failure of the nation to
insist that public schools should teach.
expound, explain and impress on the
sensitive minds of the young the first
principles of Americanism. It is all
very well to say there shall be no
religious teaching innschoolsi but the
exclusion Of notwithstanding is not
good reason for the suppression Of
ethical instruction.
If we cannot have morality in the
form of sectarian religious training,
then by all means let US have it in the
logical form. Of applied ethics. Our
young Americans should not be sent
into the world without definite knoWl-
edge Of basic right and fundamental
wrong. and the teaching of morality,
and especially Of business morality,
should be pursued with great vigor,
for therein lies the redemption of the
nation.

OIL LANDS

~ IMPORTERS of national conserva-
- ton policies are chagrined by the
~ turn affairs have taken with re-
gard to the withdrawal of oil lands, as
a fight against the Pickett bill might
by easterners not too we'll informed
as to western conditions be interpreted
as an antf-conservation measure. For
this reason the delegation that will
represent California's great industry
at washington will have to adopt the
most primitive methods of explanation,
and on a plain statement of facts may
win their case.
Experiences in the Pennsylvania
fields may be of some service to the
men who are opposed to a policy which
they say would ostensibly withdraw
oil, but in reality would deliver it to
the Southern Pacific and the trust.
The injustice both to the small inde-
pendent operator and to the govern
ment in a measure like the Pickett bill
lies in the fact that oil cannot be con-
served like wood or coal, or metallic
ores. This kind of conservation would
be a physical impossihility. When the
government oil land is withdrawn, the
owner of large tracts of patented land
does not stop operations, but continues
to pump and extract the oil, thus ex-
hausting the pool.
If at some future time operations
should be resumed on withdrawn land
there would be no oil to conserve or de-
velop, 1t would all have been drained.
a genuine application of the conser-
walton policy to the oil deposits would
be beneficial, if such could be made,
but a conservation policy that hinders
an Independent operator from carrying
on development work. while a big or
corporational owner like the trust or
its Southern Pacific ally takes advan-
tage of the natural laws governing the
conserved natural resources, is not con-
servation, but confiscation.

OUR FIREMEN

A \ effort is being made to popu-
"a larize the fire department service
"A in Los Angeles, which under
present conditions is said to be losing
men who would make good firemen.
Chief Todd recommends amendment of
the rules so that applicants for posi-
tions as firemen will be examined only
as to their physical fitness. He says
the educational and technical tests
should be dispenJed with, as fire
man might be an excellent member of
the department and yet be entirely
lacking in literary knowledge. Chief
Todd's statements have a reasonable
ring. When the fire laddies are sum-
moned to their posts of peril and duty
their higher education and general
knowledge are of less Importance than
their strength, courage and skill.

KOHLER SPEAKS OUT

NJ OTHING, it has been said, is so
v certain as the unexpected and
~ many of our readers will open
their eyes wide when perusing the ad-
dress delivered yesterday at the con-
vention of the international Association
of Chiefs of Police, held at Birming-
ham Ala That Mr.. Kohler has built
himself up large reputation by his
Golden Rule administration is true;
nevertheless the enunciation by a noted
chief of doctrines so utterly at variance
with practices well-nigh universal in
police circles will come as a genuine
surprise.
Whether Mr.. Kohler has been influ-
enced by the published work of our
own Prison Reform league, or whether
the league has drawn inspiration from
him, we do not know. This much, how
ever is sure-the address given in this
mornings issue moves on lines almost
exactly identical with those followed in
Crime and Criminals" regarded by
many as an Utopian if not danger
ously subversive book. For, speaking
with all the emphasis of official eX-
perience, not only does Mr.. kohler
roundly denounce the entire deterrent
policy, including capital punishment,
as a colossal failure; not only docs he
insist, in Col. Grffiths oft-repcated
phrase, that prisons are universities
wherein are given postgraduate
courses in crime but he also attacks
the entire system of definite sentences,
using the very illustrations, from hos
pital and insane asylum, with which the
book in question has made its readers
familiar.
Furthermore, Chief Kohler declares,
as the Prison Reform league has been
declaring, that it is monstrous for the
state to imprison men for theft and in
its turn rob them of the product of
their toll; and he pleads vehemently
for the adoption of such changes as
shall insure that tn, period of incar-
ceration shall be utilized to equip the
prisoner for the industrial battle he
must resume when he leaves the peni-
tentiary.
Above all, we note running through
his address the charge that the state
demands everything from the indi-
Vidual While itself doing nothing for
him.
These are radical ideas, but their
enunciation by so notable q figure at
such a convention lends color, at least,
to the suggestion that they are enter
ing already the domain Of practical
politics. Let the conservatives, how
ever, take heart vested interests are
far too strong to permit of precipitate
action AS to which some of us, sick.
ened with recent revelations, may be
inclined to add: "'Tis true, tits pity;
and pity 'tis, tis true"

It is not an accident. There is moth

MISSING BOOKKEEPER
NOW IN NEW ORLEANS

The mystery of the disappearance of
Carl J. Huber, bookkeeper of the Peer
less Automobile company, who has been
missing from Los Angelse since May 2,
is said to nave been solved by dis
patch received at police headquarters
last night stating that Huber had sur
rendered to the New Orleans police and
admitted he was guilty of embezzl1ng
$500.
Huber agreed to return to Los Ange-
les without fighting extradtion. 1t
was stated by members of the II. o.
Harrison Auto company they would
not prosecute the man and would re-
tain him in their employment upon his
return.
