Senator Berry's Address.

Serator Berry's address to the people of Arkansas, announcing his candidacy for reelection to the United States Senate, is an admira- ble declaration, both in tene and sentiment. In terms concise and clear, and charactcrisiicaiIy frank the Senator declares his convic- suons upon all questions of politics.
 There is no shuffiing or evasion. The perfect candor of the address cannot fail 10 commend it, even to those who differ from the senti- hments it expresses.
 Bimetallism and the Chica go platform. which, being certainly right in 1896, cannot be wrong now the election of senators di- rrectly by the people, tariff for .revenne only and opposition to trusts, monopolies and government subsidies, arc cardinal priacIplcs Of the political faith which the au- hor of the address avows and pro- iesses. Senator Berry'S express. ions with regard to the Philip pines are especially strong and lu- cid. He would deal with those far away Islands precisely as we have promised to deal with Cuba, and
 0 give 10 each, in due tune, an in. dependent government of their own.
 Refusing this, we must either rule them as colonies, with carpet-bag sogernE ent, backed up by a large standing army, which no Southern democrat could wish to impose up- on any people on earth, or receive hem regularly into the Union as States, m every way equal to cur own, make citizens of the millions of alien people, and add another race problem to that which we have already. uDsolved ,on our hands.
 Senator Berry asks that the Democrats of every county in the state be given an opportunity to ex- rpress tLeir choice for Senator, frank. riy declaring that. if majority of rthera are agalnst him, he does net desire tae off ce. He respectfully request, therefore, that the demo- cratic central committee of each Icounty, when ordering a primary election for county officers, submit l.also the choice of Senator. This is especially appropriate and in or fer, hecausc members of the leg islature, who are charged withthe formal election of Senator, are always nominated in the primaries Flor coanty officers; and the result, 'as to Senator, has always been ac- cepted, in Arkansas, as Instructions how the legislators shall vote. This has been customary heretofore not only i- this county, but through. out the State; and the result has lalways given satisfaction.-Bates vile Guard.
