During the preliminary hearing Of Sec
rotary of State Powers, Of Kentucky,
charged with conspiracy to kill William
Goebel, startling testimony is given by one
Golden, Republican mountaineer politi-
clan. II is that a large body of despera-
does was recruited by Powers to go to
Frankfort and terrorize the Democratic
members of the legislature, and that John
Powers, brother of the secretary, told the
witness that two negroes had been procur-
ed to assassinate Goebel, the Democratic
gubernatorial claimant. The revelation is
so astounding as TO be Incredible. There
is no reason to doubt that an armed band
of determined Republicans visited the cap
ital TO protect the interests OF Gov. Taylor,
nor to doubt that they would shirk rough
and tumble encounter; but that the kill
ing of Goebel was deliberately plotted by
a member of Gov. Taylor's cabinet and
other influential politicians is too shock
ing to be accepted as true without the full
est and clearest corroboration.-IP hila-
delphia Record.
