HEAVY RAIN About nine o'clock
yesterday morning the foodgates of
heaven were opened and down came
the pouring rain. The old maxim
"that one mans meat is another man S
poison" was never more truthfully ex
emplifed than in this instance. Most
of our White river farmers raise hay to
soil to logging camps, and this rain
greatly benefits their second crop of
clover. On the contrary, the Swinomish
farmers have cut their grain but have
not harvested it. hence it must have
suffered heavily if this shower has ex.
tended down to the reclaimed lands in
the delta of the Skagit. Let US hope
that it was checked in its wild career
somewhere about Hat Island. One good
accomplished by it is the laying of the
smoke. which had become n first class
nuisance.

A STRONG ENDORSEMENT Her
Tod, Milwaukee an independent Ger
man paper of ability and wide in inhu-
ence, in an article on the Republican
state ticket, gives this unqualified en-
endorsement of Mr.. Smith, the nomi-
nee for Governor:
That the Liberal Republicans favored
this nomination some years ago needs
not TO be mentioned here. If at that
time they interested themselves in this
nomination, the reasons for such sup
port to-day still hold good. Mr.. Smith
in former years, held the Office of state
treasurer-honorably and successfully.
He is generally known as capable
business man, of unquestionably high
standing as regards character and quail
fcations; and, furthermore he has the
advantage of varied and extended stay
in Europe, being free from all prejudi-
ces and notions of nativism, which only
too often mark the native-born. He is
man of common sense, capabiIity, edu-
cation, and moral strength-iust such a
man as we need for governor of the Ger
man state of Wisconsin.
This Endorsement of Mr.. Smith is i'm
portant, because it is the verdict of a
paper which has long been familiar with
him and his record. and which is indie
pendent of party influence or bias to-
ward him. 1t will have a marked in
tiuence among that large class of indie
pendent voters that read the Herold.

SENATOR HowE.-In another column
is an article taken from the State Jour
nal relating to the fact that President
Grant offered the position of Chief JUS
tice of the United States to Senator
Howe, which he declined, because to
have accepted it Of that time would have
been to have surrendered his Senatorial
position to the opposition party. Sena-
tor Howe thus put behind him the posi-
ton second only to that of President of
the United States, rather than surrender
his place in the Senate to the opposition
party. There was never grander ex.
hibition of faithfulness to principle than
was here exhibited by our distinguished
Senator, if we omit the time when he
sacrificed a seat in the United States
Senate, to which he conld have easily
been elected, if he had pandered to
local political excitement that was pre-
valing in the State at the time of the
election. We feel sure that no Repub-
lican of Wisconsin can withhold their
admiration from Senator Howe's deser-
ton to them when they reflect what
sacrifices he made that he might be true
to them. Give the grand old Senator
his due.
While abiding to this matter we
hope President Hayes will appoint Sen
ator Howe to the vacant judgship. 1t
would be most fitting thing to do

plies its subscribers with prompt infor-
nation of counterfeits as soon as dis
covered. A glance at the work, copy
of which is before US, shows perfect
scheme by which business men can be
secured against counterfeiters. The
publishers are furnished with a complete
list of stolen United States bonds by
the treasury department. To show
the extent to which counterfeiting has
been carried it may be mentioned that
there is but one issue of 1862 which has
not been counterfeited.

a VALUABLE GIFT TO THE UNI
VERSITY.

Provision was made last winter by
| the legislature for setting aside $4,000
annually from the university fund in
come for astronomical work and instruc-
ton, to be expended under the direction
of the regents of the State University as
soon as well equipped observatory
shall be given to the institution, In its
own grounds, without cost to the state,
provided said observatory shall be COM
pIeted inthree years from the passage OF
the act. It is now announced by Pres1-
dent Bascom, of the University, that
this provision was made at the sugges-
ton of Elk Gov. G. G. Washburn, and
that he is ready to meet the provisions
of the act, and, during the coming year,
to erect and equip a superior astronomi-
cal observatory. Every thing about it
will be made to produce practical and
valuable results. 1t will be provided
with a fifteen inch equatorial, equal or
superior to that OF Harvard University,
Cambridge, and nothing will be want
Jag to make it first-class in all its mp
pointments.
This viii prove agreeable informa-
ton to every one interested in the cause
of thorough education throughout the
state. By this gift ex-Gov. Washburn
will not only confer lasting benefit upon
the state but will rear himself n1onu-
ment more enduring than marble, and
Justly secure the title of public benefac-
tor. No man in public life has had the
interests of the state more directly in
view in all his acts, and no man has
served it better in the positions to which
he has been assigned. This gift to the
university is but another evidence of the
interest so often manifested by him in
the growth of the state in all that tends
to promote the material and intellectual
progress of its people; and they ere,
therefore, laid under renewed obliga-
tons to him. Wisconsin,.

to accept the nomination, because his

with regret since his nomination was
