I haven't read the Treaty in its entirety, but what you've said basically sounds like official languages CAN be established. It just can't be a language spoken by those who originally had the land. However, this means that Spanish, possibly French and a host of Native American languages have to be included.

It is possible for countries to have more than one official language.
