Governorship.
One of the most harmonious conven-
tions ever held by the republicans of
Crawford county was the one of last
Saturday which met to select delegates
to the state and senatorial conventions,
Considering that no factional strife ex-
listed and that no county Offices were at
stake, the attendance was good. The
plan of holding the convention on Fri
day was so that the business men of
other towns might attend was fully
justified by the large delegations pres
ent from Charter Oak. Dow City, Vail.
West Side, Manila and other towns.
County Chairman B. Y. Nicholson
called DR.. II. A. Saunders to the chair
y as temporary chairman and DR.. L. B.
Toon of Dow City was selected as tenn
porary secretary. With the appoint
ment of committees on resolutions,
credentials and permanent organiza
tion the work of tie morning session
of committees were first heard. The
temporary organization was made per-
manent and the resolutions as printed
in another column were adopted unan-
imously.
A committee of one from each pre-
cinct was selected to report on dele
y,gates to the state convention and in
accordance with the resolutions the
selection of the senatorial delegates
was left to Hon. Carl F. Kuehnle

of Dow City, 7. j. Hoffman OF Vail,
S. G. Blackman of West Side, E. Hath
away of Iowa township and John HUE

The endorsement of Mr.. Kuehnle
was a sincere and hearty one. The
republicans of the county are united
in Mr.. Kuehnle's support and they
believe they will win. There is no
disloyalty in Crawford county republi-
2anism. Mr.. Kuehnle is felt to be en-
Eitled to the honor and it is gladly ac-
4corded. After the selection of the
delegates MIR. Kuehnle was called
upon and spoke something as follows:
Mr.. Kuehnle sincerely thanked the
convention for their unanimous en-
dorsement of his candidacy and author
( ing him to select his own delegates.
4 He said That if nominated and elected
he would do his utmost to serve his
district honestly and faithfully, that
he would devote his entire energies
and such ability as he possessed to the
discharge of the duties of the office
and hoped to so conduct himself as to
not cause his friends to apologize for
Shim, but to merit their appreciation
His ambition should be to leave a
Z reputation for honest, conscientious
and faithful service to the people. He
had never before been q candidate for
Office, but had from early youth taken
q great interest in politics as every
citizen ought. He said he would like
to be senator, his ambitions were along
the legislative line and his interest
in and study of public questions might
'be OF service to him ex-senator. aees i,
For over nineteen years he had lived
in this county and he had tried to do
his duty as citizen in a humble way
and that he was deeply grateful, at6 his
fellow republicans for, this, expression
of confidence in him. n ,,''.'s
