QUESTION CLEARED UP
Journal Readers Can No Longer Doubt
The Evidence

Journal Readers Can No Longer Doubt
The Evidence.
Again and again we have read of
strangers in distant towns WHO
been cured by this or that medicine.
But Shoshone's pertinent question has
always been HAS anyone here in Sho-
shone been cured?" The word of
stranger living a hundred miles away
may be true. but it cannot have the
same weight with us as the word Of
onr own citizens. whom we know and
respect. and whose evidence we can SO
easily prove.

by the issues Of that bloody conflict.
Two Of Mr.. Underwood's uncles
fought in the confederate ranks. His

as a sympathizer with the union

that he held slavery in adherence.
He liberated his slaves before the
war began.

backs on the war-swept state of Ken

education. When the family after

Underwood was emit to Louisville,
where he prepared for college at the
Rugby school.
In 1882 he became a student in the
law school connected with the Uni
versity Of Virginia, an institution
which, in those early days, was to the
south what Harvard 10 to the north.
He received his principal tuition in
the intricacies of law from Prot. John

at this university for forty years, and
is given credit for having trained a

prominence in the south for two gen.

Texas was the classmate Of Repre-

At the university Underwood was
known az an attractive. intelligent
and industrious student. In those
early days. according to men who
were with him at college. he showed
no symptoms to indicate that ha had

Of Charlottesville was not prone to
foster such ambitions, nor were po.

this state inhabited by Il tribe of
Indians called the Massachusetts. The
word means near the great hills"
being composed Of "massa," great,
"wadchuash." hills. and "ct" near.
Thus the name in the Indian tongue
was -Wadchuash-et." to which
the first explorer added an IS" to make
it plural and shortened the name to
its present form.
The origin of Rhode Island has

writer's tell us the name is a cor

to it by the Dutch discoverers because
its shores presented a red appear
