HENRY AND CHARLES KUCHEL, editors and proprietors of the Anaheim Gazette, took 
charge of this paper in 1887. They are the sons of Conrad Kuchel, a native of 
Germany, and one of the earliest settlers of Anaheim. For several years previous 
to his arrival in Anaheim he was engaged in the business of engineering in San 
Francisco. Henry Kuchel, the senior editor of the Gazette, was born in San 
Francisco, June 11, 1859. He received a high-school education at the Anaheim 
schools, and learned the printer�s trade in the office which he and his brother 
now own. He subsequently worked for ten years on the principal newspapers 
throughout the State. He has spent his whole time as a printer and editor, and 
the Gazette, of today has for its editor one of the most practical newspaper men 
in Southern California. Mr. Kuchel is still a young man, and, having, so 
thoroughly acquainted himself with journalism, it is but natural to predict hat 
he will in the future hold an enviable position among the prominent member of 
the �art preservative of arts.�
