He was born in Webster, Massachusetts. He graduated from Harvard University in 1899, and from Harvard Law School in 1902.

He was captain in the State Guard of Massachusetts from 1917 to 1920, and the assistant district attorney for the middle district of Massachusetts from 1917 to 1921. Stobbs was elected as a Republican to the Sixty-ninth, Seventieth, and Seventy-first Congresses (March 4, 1925 - March 3, 1931). He did not run for reelection in 1930. He was one of the managers appointed by the House of Representatives in 1926 to conduct the impeachment proceedings against George W.

Between 1927 and 1942 he was a major and subsequently lieutenant colonel in the Judge Advocate General’s Department. He became a delegate to the Interparliamentary Congress in London, England in 1930. He was delegate to the Republican National Convention in 1932, and to the Republican State conventions in 1940 and 1942. He resumed law in Worcester, Massachusetts.
