"I'he Cow Is Queen. "

Such was the language of Gov.
Rusk one year ago at the State FAR,
when speaking of the value and I'M
portance of the dairy interests Of
the state. The thought was original
with the Governor; but the origi-
nality of the thought is not of so
much concern to the people OF
Wisconsin in forming their decision
as to how they should vote this fall
to advance the great agricultural IN
terests of the state, as it Is to know
that Gov. Rusk, who is their candi.
date for reelection, continues to
keep a steady and fixed anxiety on
the welfare and success Of the one
great industry of Wisconsin-the
farming and agricultural interests,
When we consider that four tifths of
the wealth of the state is held by
the farmers, it must strongly impress
that industrial class with the urgent
necessity Of having their interests
confided to the hands Of one, whose
first and guiding thought is, to en-
courage and protect those interests.
Gov. Rusk has devoted a long and
useful life to but two services: First,
a service of his own choice, as a
laborer and farmer; Second, a SER
vice of the peoples choice, as that
of a public servant. When he start
ed in life, he started as a farmer, and
continued that occupation until he
was elected sheriff of his county.
When his term expired, his first acts
were to plant corn, and SOW wheat
and oats. When the people next
called him to their service, he trans
formed his plowshare into sword
to protect his own and their homes,
in which service he was engaged
three years. On returning to peace
at home he retransformed his sword
into plowshare and again engaged
in farming. He was again called by
the people into the public service as
State Bank Comptroller, and when
this service closed, he went again
upon the farm. He was next called
into the public service as a represen-
tative of the people in Congress,
and when this service closed ut the
end of six years, he hitched his team
again to the same pillow he had left
in the furrow. He was next called
upon by the people to direct the
affairs of state, and to see that the
laws were faithfully executed, as the
chief executive. During all the
time he has been governor of the

by the farmer to convince himself
and his neighbers that the farming
interests of the state have been
vastly benefited under the admins
tration of Gov. Rusk. Farmers in
stitutes and crop statistics, besides
the val liable lessons derived from
the reports from the Experimental
Farm, are among the notable bene-
fits to every farmer, which are thrust
into his hands in tangible form,
without even the fatigue of a
thought on his part. 1t being ad-
mitted that the farmers have had
just cause to complain that their in
interests have been neglected by the
Legislators, they can truthfully as
cribe the principal cause of this to
preceding executives who have over
looked the importance of recon-
mending such legislation in their
messages. But in every message
given to the legislature by Governor
Rusk, the farmers interests have
been kept uppermost in his sugges-
tons, until the results are beginning
to show themselves III every town
and county in the state. If the
farmers should ask, GLOW long will
this encouragement continued" we
are justified in answering; Just 50
long as a good, honest farmer, like
Gov. Rusk, is governor of the state.
If the farmers of the state consider
lawyers inapt to make laws for their
benefit, how much more would go.-
ernors who are lawyers be olsen
clined to recommend such legisla-
ton.
The candidates for governor on
both the other tickets are profession
al lawyers. They possess no knowl-
edge of farming, or of the needs and
interests Of the farmer. If either
Mr. Woodward or Mr.. Olin should
be informed that COW refused to
give down her milk, they would at
once repair to the state library, even
on Sunday, and search for authori-
ties on the subject, and proceed to
procure an alternative writ of man
damus against the COW, command
ing her to disgorge or show cause.
Or, should rowing pig by inadvert-
ence or ineXcusable negligence
chance to stray into the back door
yard of the domicil of either of
them, instead of getting hammer
and nail to repair the picket fence,
they would commence an action of
ejectment and apply for an injunc-
tional order restraining the pig from
"A repetition of the trespass. If
either of them should see a horse or
"A yoke of oxen running away, in
stead of trying to head them off or
put on the brakes, they would hasten
TO their Office and get out a writ of
ne e.cedt to prevent the runaway
from leaving the state. About all
the knowledge these gentlemen pos
sess of the dairy interests of the
state was acquired in studying now
to get the most cream off a farmers
case in court.
If the farmers of Wisconsin de-
sire to have their best interests cared
for and advanced as they have been
during the time Gov. Rusk has been
governor of the state, there can be
no question as to how they will
vote this fall as between a farmer
governor and two professional law
yers.
THERE is still a vast amount of
work to be done in this country for

which styles itself the Anti-Prohi-

meeting in Milwaukee last week
proclaimed that it would work
against the election of any man to

no license at all. In this respect it

ANECDOTES OF BERT.
How the French Savant Convinced Him
self of tho Efficacy of Vaccination.

How the French Savant Convinced Him
self of tho Efficacy of Vaccination.
A striking anecdote of the late Paul
Bert's intrepidity as savant is related.
Some years ago he visited Havre while
severe epidemic of smallpox was
raging in that port Noticing on his
return to Paris that the mortality was
daily on the increase, he began to en-
tertain doubts as to the efficacy of vac
cination as prophylactic, and re-
solved to solve the problem to his own
satisfaction by experiments on his own
person. He accordingly got himself
vaccinated, and going fortnight af-
tcrwards to Charlie hospital he had
himself inoculated with the virus OF
man who was dying from the small
poX. No i'll effects having resulted
from this terrible experiment, NJ. Paul
Bert was completely won over to the
cause of vaccination, which through
out the remainder of his life had no
warmer supporter. The Lancet says
OF Nj. Bert that las man of science
he was an original worker and an ac-
complished popularizcr. He took an
interest in every thing. and rapidly as
simulated all that he studied. But as a
matter of fact, this extreme versatility
prevented him from making more than
a beginning in whatever he undertook,
whether in politics, science, law or
mathematics, and it may he added the
ology. IN. y. Posi-.

OCEAN FIREWORKS,
Brilliant Corruscntions of Light observe
on the Pacific Ocean.

ON tnc Ebctuc OCehu.
We boarded steamer at San Fran
DISCO that had been specially fitted for
deep sea fishing and dredging. Pass
ing out of the Golden Gate, we steamed
,tong directly in the route Of the China
steamers, running by way of the Sand
wich Islands. We intended to fish in
water from one to three miles deep,
with the aid of a galvanio battery and
giant powder.
We had just taken supper, and still
sat about the cabin table, when one OF
the sailors came down and told us that
the ocean was on fire. We hurried to
the deck. We had often noticed the
phosphorescenco of .ho sea, but never
looked upon so grand picture before.
We had n celebrated German scientist
with us. Wo were al too much i'm
pressed with the grandeur of this
demonstration to talk much, and wero
totally unmindful OF the WEAKNESS
that had impressed us some time be-
fore.
Any one at all familiar with ocean
travel has noticed. when the water was
in n state OF agitation at night, that a
beautiful sparkling light was always
visible. varying in brillancy, but much
brighter when it was intensely dark.
This light is seen in its greatest splen-
dor and variety of color usually in the
tropical regions, owing to the fact that
the heat favors the production of the
luminous matter.
Here it exhibited itselfi great sheets
of light. AS tho vessel moved, the
waves spread out in places, apparently
burning bitumen and sulphur, having
blush tint; at other points they looked
like sea of milk.
At intervals stars seemed to leap out
of the billowy waves by thousands,
while great red balls of fire rolled be.
meath the surface that seemed to bo
from twenty to forty feet in diameter.
Then, again, huge blazing squares
were visible, and cones of bright light,
revolving on each other, while wreaths
and garlands were intertwined among
the dazzling objects. Sparkling jets OF
fire leaped from the water, and every
wave crest held at its summit bright
flame, as if to light up the scarcely less
luminous watery valley into which they
fell at every moment.
We gazed long and excitedly on this
sublime display Of nature, and, after
time, aperfect calm prevailed and not a
ripple broke the surface. All the bright
ness went out with the first rays of the
rising moon.
At another time we heard a great
animation in the ocean. the splashing
extending over a large extent of water.
The most brilliant corruscations OF
light, and of a great variety of color
and form. were seen over the whole
dazzling field. A school of dolphins
had arrived, and were sporting amid
the tossing waves, possibly enjoying
the splendid display of fireworks that
they assisted in producing. Hubert
