third Democratic candidate, r. L..
Young, Of st. Joseph, is expected by
politicians to get few votes outside his
own district.
The bitterness with which the con test
between Senator Reed and Mr.. Long
has been waged, indicated by the form
ing of "Rid Us Of Reed" clubs, in which
women have taken great interest. Ban
ners and placards bearing this inscrip.
tion have been posted in many towns of
the State. while others appealing to
