Powers, who in 1900 was the Republic
an secretary of state under the Repub-
lican executive of Kentucky, William
S. Taylor, was charged with being an
accessory to the murder of Governor
Goebel, which occurred Jan. 80, 1900
He has been tried three times. twice
sentenced to life Imprisonment and
once to death. Each time that the case
has been appealed the verdict of the
lower court has been reversed and
new trial ordered. Though stoutly

have the case transferred from the
state to the federal courts In support
