Stoll for more than a halt century was identified with the press of Indiana. It is well within the facts to say that during a considerable part of that period he was an outstanding figure in his calling. His death at South Bend last night at the age of eighty-three removes a man with a high conception of public duty, mors than ordinary ability to express hintself clearly and fearlessly, and seemingly of tireless energy. It was typical ■ of Mr. Stoll that, after he had retired in 1911 from the editorship and control of the South Bend Times, he could not resist a desire to maintain his Contact with journalism as a contributor. He had continued work of this character until shortly before his death. In politics Mr. Stoll was a Democrat. and his advice long was sought by party leaders. There was, however, little of the opportunist in his makeup, and his suggestions and plans looked toward the public welfare rather than any immediate gain in offices won. There can be no finer contribution to public life than that. Mr. Stoll, who was born in Germany and whose father was drowned shortly before his birth, was reared by his mother, who emigrated to”) lie Vnited States. He had a real love for this country and the principles on which the government rested. That faith was unfaltering and was reflected in air admirable man- ■ tier in his career as editor and publisher. He was* connected with newspaper work from the age of nine years on. Few have had the span of press service that he had. i How interested Mr. Stoll, continued to be in life about him is indicated by his activity as a member of the. ‘ State I’rson board. He became ill ; with influenza last Sunday after his ■ return from a trip to Michigan City < to attend a meeting of that body. In ; truth he did not rust, out but wore out, after eighty-three years. Indiana ( is the loser by his passing, but the , state, with his relatives and friends, will share the pride felt in a career that was inspiring and useful. —Indianapolis News. Texas friends proposed that Edward M. House shall have the democratic nomination for president, but nothing is likely to come from it. The colonel is a competent politician, while he was picking governors for Texa; they were first-class governors and see what a mess Texas has made of it since House entered the larger field! The colonel is a progressive in the Wilson sense. The colonel demonstrated his loyalty to President Wilson. by remaining his unselfish advisor after Wilson hud cut the tie that bound. The colonel has the friendship of liberal statesmen in England, France and Germany. In fact he has an unusual quality for friendships. But his power in political life has always been unofficial. He has been shrewd to see that it was the greater power because it was unofficial. The field of his most patient ami useful service has been inter--4 national, a field in which American politicians, including delegate; to conventions and congressmen, have little interest. The colonel does not at all fit into the picture of a democratic presidential caudklale. His whole political experience has been such us to win him the confidence of incu in high places, but not to make

A few days like this and everybody will be catching the "Clean up and paint up” fever. It comes regularly with spring and its a good thing for it rids us of a lot of dirt, rubbish, ugly spots and makes everybody feel better. You know there's a lot in | appearances. If you go into a drab appearing room you soon feel that way yourself and the same thing is true of a city. If you enter a town where the streets are ill kept and where the store fronts are dead looking and the homes and lawns and approaches look delapidated, yon know its a bum place to light. It doesn't make any difference what your creed, race, prejudices or politics is, here's one movement you can 1 join in to your advantage. Don't forget to help dean up. Get a dog? Beginning the 15th of the month, if he is running out and doesn't wear a muzzle, it will be the duty of the police officers to shoot him. The order, which has just officially gone out from the state beard of health and is effective for ninety days, was made necessary because of the widespread of rabies. It fs claimed there are more cases in the state now than was ever known and many people who have been bitten are being treated iu the Pasteur Indianapolis hospital. The order should b.‘ complied with for if it is not and some person is bitten the results may be very serious. Muzzle the dog ot keep him in the yard. B: ighten up the store fronts, trim the windows, light 'em up. use a little paint, got teady for spring. Though the predictions have been that we are not to have any spring or summer, we wouldn't advise you to go on that theory for unless different than its been the past several thousand years, the season will be very similar to those of other years. o it it i* ** »» ** •* •» •* ** •» •» * X TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY 8 X * X From the Daily Democrat File > X Twenty Years Ago Thia Day 8 X * ::x::xxx xx xx xxxx xx x April 9. 1906—Eruption of Vesuvius drives inhabitants away from the vicinity of that famous mountain.

THE ROUNDED LIFE

When you have done with your business and ended your battle for gain. When you hav e come to your glory and gathered the price of your pain. What have you captured lasting more than the love of your own. The love of your wife and your children. the love of the friends you have known? Give heed to the life you are building, for in truth 'tis a life that you build; Is jt a temple of gladness, with Pictures and memories filled. Or is it a sepulchre ghastly, a tomb that is silent and cold, With nothing to warm you or cheer you but columns ot silver and gold? You were born to be strong, to be happy, to laugh and to sing through the years; You were born to know life in its fullness, with all of its heartaches and tears; You were born to know roses and

I blossoms and the numberless pleasures of earth; So stunt not your life as the miser, who reckons in money his worth. For when age shall descend with its shadows and the end of the battle is seen, You will find the brave heart and the gentle as rich as the richest lias been. For his life shall be blended with beauty, he shall treasures of memory own. While the slave to his millions of dollars shall sit at his desk all alone. Take time for the pleasure of living, take time to be friendly and kind; Be more than a maker of money, grow richer in heart and. in mind; Be a glorious comrade and neighbor, know the meaning of laughter and tears; Live bravely and gladly and fully, and you will not have wasted the years.
