A RAILWAYS BIRTHDAY.

Missoula Missoulian: On Febru-
airy Is, 1870, the construction of the
Northern Pacific railraod was begun
at the Dallas of St. Louis, on the Up
per Mississippi. That was forty one
years ago today; this is the birthday
OF the Northern Pacific. The road
did not extend very far west at first
but that start from near Duluth was
1raught with great possibilities
That began to be appreci-
ated as steel was laid farther and
farther into the then almost unex-
plored west. From state to state
the railroad pushed its locomotives
and cars, but it was thirteen years
before the road reached Missoula
The Northwest, with special reference
to Montana, owes much to the North
ern Pacific. The road has made pos
slble the splendid development that
exists today, has brought the treas
ure state much of its population, has
kept the resources of Montana con-
stantly before the eyes of the east.
An important factor in the remark
able growth of Missoula the Northern
Pacific has been. There is a debt
that the city is not likely to forget.

DISCOVERIES
IN ANTHROPOLOGY

Portland, Ore, Feb. 2O.-Remark-
able discoveries are being made in
anthropology by Prof. Leo j. Fracht-
enburg, of the Smithsonian Institute
at Washington, who is engaged in
the study of languages of the Indian
tribes of the Pacific Northwest. He
has found that, contrary to the scien-
lists making researches among the
Coast Indians, the Lower Umpqua
and Siuslaw tribes of Oregon possess
languages entirely different from any
other of the tribes and not dialect,
as has always been thought.
The Siuslaw and Umpuua
tongues are radically different from
those of the other tribes, in fact
there are only II languages on the
globe, it is said, that have similar
form of expression. In speaking Of
the same action, the male and female
use different words, thus creating
practically two different languages
The division made is based upon ami
mate and inanimate objects. The
male Indian classes himself as ami
mate and places the female as mani
mate, no doubt because he considers
her an inferior being.
cit was supposed that the Lower
Umpqua and Siuslaw froms of speech
were mere dialects of the Yaquina
tongue" said Prof. Frachtenburg,
"but this supposition has proved no,
to be in accord with the facts as
discovered them. I find that these
two languages form a new linguistic
group. which bears no relation to the
Alsea. Upon learning the certainty
of this fact, l telegraphed to Wash
ington and was directed to proceed
Immediately with the work of investi-
eating these languages further.
There is but one woman who can
still talk the language. She is al
most 80 years old and 10 rapidly pass
ing into stage of second childhood.
She is one of the Lower Umpquas.
Her husband is an Alsea and they
speak different languages. but they
understand each other. Through
them, hope to tabulate their vocab.
ulary and preserve this language,
now becoming distinct. This will be
a work of months. My chief inter-
est lies in finding other members of
the tribe, and II I can find them
shall have added considerable to the
anthropological history Of the In
dian.'

FARMERS AND RECIPROCITY

Washington, D. c.. Feb. 90
While President Taft does not be-
lieve that the opposition of the farm
ers Of this country to the proposed
reciprocity agreement with Canada
is nearly SO deep-rooted or so wide
ing to have it appear to be, he never
the less recognizes the fact that such
opposition exists and is likely to
prove very troublesome in bringing
about the contamination of the pro-
posed agreement unless 1t is over
come. Consequently his most urgent
appeals and his most persuasive arg
uments in behalf of the measure are
now being directed to the American
farmer.
In line with the Presidents reci-
procity campaign will be the trip of
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson to
Buffalo tomorrow, where he 10 to de-
liver a Washington's Birthday ad-
dress before the Elicott Club of that
city. Secretary Wilson in his address
will pursue the same line of argu-
ment In regard to reciprocity used
by the President in his recent speech
es in Columbus and Springfield, but
will go more into the details of the
plan and the manner in which 1t may
be expected to affect the interests of
the American farmer. His speech
will be direct reply to the argu-
ments going the rounds that the
farmers and farmer organizations OF
the country are opposed to Canadian
reciprocity.
President Taft believes the Secre-
tary of Agriculture il probably tht
best-informed man in the entire
country on all that effects the inter-
ests of the farmers and he 10 sure
that his arguments on reciprocity will
be valuable. 1t Is declared by sourc-
es close to the administration thar
the National Grange, which has been
widely quoted as opposing the agree
ment, has not acted as an organiza-
ton and that the entire clamor has
been made by few of the officers OF
the organization who are PERSONALLY!
opposed to reciprocity and are seek
ing to have the organization iAdsrse
their views.
