ney says the jdrajitielcy Democrat
The scene odpfrs entering was
tragic in the e fome The fast
ffily ing democraticchieftain lay on
bed almost inadifaUlate
But while the < mtiscles of the ton
rue could barely pferfofm their func
tion his great brain was still ac
tive and centered on one thing the
future of Kentucky democracy
Mr Hendrick entered the room
and the only witnesses to this reo
markable scene were rthur Goe
bel and a nurse ApjSfoaching the
bed Gov Goebel at oiifce recognized
Mr Hendrick but his voice came
only in whispers buf these whis
pers were to conveya command
fraught with the most weighty mean
fraughtwiththemostweightymeaning
ingGov
Gov Goebel beckoned to Mr Hen
drick and Mr Hendrick walked to
the bedside and took his hand The
governor could not make himself un
derstood and Mr Hendrick knelt
down by the bedside and was com
polled to place his ear flesh to flesh
with the governors lips
How are you asked Mr Hen
drick
Very i apprehensive indeed
whisper Gov Coebel
This was the first time that Gov
Goebel had given any utterance
that he would not recover But
even in this full realization that the
end was ese at hand thought of
self was ablolutely foreign to his
mind He thought solely and only
of the democratic party
I am grieved to hear you speak
that way about your condition
said Mr Hendrick
liMy only thought is about the
party r 1f
Gov Goebel then asked this sig
nificant question
Am I governor of Kentucky
You are
Have you examined the ques
tion
tionI
I have and all the other law
yers who have investigated the
question concur with me
Take charge and never give uptv
said Gov Goebel and the governor
had issued his last order
Heni
drick was perfectly rational Her
did not have any thought for him
Self pnly for the democratic par I
ty
And as Mr Hendrick told of this
wonderful scene tears swelled up in
his eyes The dying man was his
oldtime friend fellowsenator and
roommate for four years confiden
tial counsellor one of his chief
trusted personal friends
