Carl, KUEHNL,E .
IN GREAT DEMAND
Denison's Candidate for Governor Has
Many Speaking Dates Ahead
Can't Fill All Invitations.
APPRECIATED OUTSIDE OF STATE
Former Iowa Newspaper Man Pays a
Glowing Tribute to His Ability
to Fill Governors Chair.

Carl F. Kuehnie Is certainly in de
mand for public speeches. He speaks
at Atlantic upon Abraham Lincoln be
fore the Commercial club on February
10TH at Ute before the short course
on February 18th, at Mt. Vernon be-
fore the college in the morning and
before the Presbyterian Brotherhood
in the evening on February 14th, at
Greene before the farmers institute
on February 18th, at Algona before
the Commercial club February lSth'
and has speaking engagements for the
week following in Sheldon, Davenport
and Carroll.
He is receiving more invitations
than he can possibly accept. but is &C.
commodating as many requests as his
time will permit. Prior to his an
nouncement as candidate for cover
nor on the republican ticket, Mr..
Kuehnle was in great demand as a
speaker and had won an enviable rep
utation. Since coming out as candl-
date, however, the requests for speech
.es have multiplied three fold. The tact
is, Mr.. kuehnle is a publlc speaker
ranking above the average; he pos
sesses a splendid physique, an uninter-
rupted flow of language, distinct
pronunciation, and an extraordinary
brain of quick action and well stored
with historical facts. He is able to
speak on any subject extemporaneous'
ly, and with telling effect. AS man
of the business world he has few SUI
periors-the success of his private
business is ample evidence OF this,
and he believes in conducting public
affairs as he would his private affairs.
AS governor of the great state OF
Iowa Mr. kuehnle would take hrst
rank among the governors OF the ma
ton and would give Iowa business
impetus enyied by her sister states.
Newspapers over the state, where
ever he has spoken, comment very
highly upon his addresses, the earn.
estness with which they are given and
the exceptional line OF thought so well
delivered. Mr.. Kuehnle is making
good as q campaigner.
In an editorial, under the caption,
Concerning Iowa" f. W.. Meyers IN.
the Portsmouth (Ohio) Morning Star,
says Of Mr.. Kuehnle:
"Speakins of Iowa, reminds us that
our lifelong friend and comrade IN
many political battle, Hon. Carl n.
Kuehnle, is now a candidate for the
nomination for governor OF
Iowa.
"Mr. Kuehnle has one of the bright
est minds it has ever been our pleas
ure to know. He is as full OF energy
as a gram of radium. An eloquent or
ator, he combines, with this gift, "a
business ability which
brought him from the ranks of those
who worked their way through
school, to a position of comparative
affluence. He is q man, OF high ideals.
He is candidate from very Quix-
otto purpose. He. is a candidate be-
cause he actually wants to make a
good governor, and to leave that rec
ord as a heritage to his children. Rath-
err a strange motive, in this day and
age.
"Mr. Kuellnle is honest, politically,
as we'll as in business way. At one
time he was very near the attainment
of a fond ambition; nomination,
which was equivalent to an election,
was within his grasp, but rather than
permit one, certain, deal; question
able, from highly moral standpoint,
but quite common among politicians,
he threw the whole thing over.
1--WE do not know that Mr.. Kuehnle
will be nominated. We think per
haps he is too good man. He can
not promise two Numerically opposed
things at the same time. He is too
little OF a demagogue, too straightfor-
ward. If Iowa people are wise they
will chose him as their standard bear
er and they will have as good a bust
ness administration as the state has
ever known"
