THE CAREER OF GoEBEL.
A Native of Pennsylvania. His Life Has
Been Spent in Kentucky.

CoviDgton, Ky, Jan. 31.-Senator
William Goebel, whose home has been
here since his youth, was born in 4
small village in Sullivan county,
Pennsylvania. With his father and
mother he came to Covin@tOn, Ky.
when quite bov. William began at
the jewelry business in Cincinnati.
but after remaining there short
time expressed desire TO study law.
He entered the office of Stevenson &
Myers, the latter the father of Harvey
Myers. about 1878. After the Gisso-
luton OF this firm Aug. 10 1874, he
continued with the firm of Stevens son
X O'Hara, and afterward became the
law partner of Gov. John w. Steven son.
Later he became the law partner of
John g. Carlisle. the eX speaker, SEN
atOr and secretary of the treasury.
He was prominent as member of the
democratic state committee for years
and always at conventions. The
mocTatic state convention a Louis
willie last June that nominated Sena-
tor Goebel for governor over Col.
Stone and Gen. Hardin was one of the
most notable gatherings of the kind
in the history OF the state.
Senator Goebel was the author of
the present election law of Kentucky,
measure which has attracted unU-
sual attention on account of its pecu-
liar provisions. On the returns of
the county boards. afterward affirmed
by the state beard of elections. under
the Goc bel election law. the certificate
of election was given 70 Taylor. GOe-
bells first advent in politics was rs n
candidate for state senator to till the
uneNpired term of J. W. Bryan, who
was elected lieutenant governor with
Buckner in 1887. and has since con-
tinuously represented Kenton county
in the senate.
He was man who despised any
ostentatjon whatever. He steadfastly
refused TO have mis- picture taken up
TO his candidacy for governor and per-
si>teutly refused TO wTi;e an autobi-
ography of his life. and none is found
in the many histories and lives of men
of Kentucky. He was hard. close
student and ever pouring over law
books or literature. He was II years
OF are and never msrried. Goebcl was
a fearless man and had had various
encounters. the most notable one he

of the Farmers and Traders bank
