RHODE IsLAND-U. S. SENATOR
The Legislature of this State will soon
hold an adjourned session, with special ref
erenee to the choice of United States
Senator for six years from the 4th of March
next. Much solicitude is naturally felt as
to the selection. Rhode Island has impor-
tant interests to be promoted or periled by
the prospective legislation of Congress,
and ought to choose her very strongest man
to the high place about to become vacant.
That man, in the judgment not only of in
dividuals but Of the Country, is JAMES F.
SIMMONS. Since the retirement of Tnstram
Burgess, she has sent no man to Congress
his equal in ability and efficiency. No
man is so thoroughly qualified to speak
convincingly on the subject Of the modih-
cation of the Tariff. No new man, even
as able as he is, could exert so much inhu-
ence as one who has been six years in the
Senate, and has made his mark there.
Rhode Island will render signal service
to the cause of National Prosperity and
Independence should she decide to return
Mr.. Simmons to the Senate.
