Special Dispatch to The Star PROVIDENCE: R. 1. October 20.— There is more -than a possibility that Rhode Island will be represented at Washington by two Republican Sena- tors and at lepst two and perhaps three Representatives after the No- vember election. Banking upon the Franco-American vote of this State, 35,000 in number. to vote for its blooded relative, the Repub- | licans have named Judge Felix Herbert, Rhode Islander of French ancestry, as candidate for Senator against Senator Gerry. 1f elected Judge Hebert would join Senator Metcalf.

October 20.—As the field looks no. it will be entirely pos- sible for Nebraska to return the four Democratic Representatives and pos- sibly displace Representative Sears, Re- oublican, in the second district and still_remain in the Republican column on_ November 6. With Gov. Smith's support getting more active every day and the farm relief jssue or dissatisfaction with Re- publican farm legislation more general- Iy discussed. 1t looks as if Representa- tive Morehead. Democrat. in the first district would defeat former Senator and Representative Burkett (Repub- lican). Until Morehead, who is a ner governor, became a candidate years ago. this district was re- rect, but the correctness of the calcu- | ahject of an intensive drive by the Re- garded strongly Republican, lation carries with it the probable de- feat of the G. for governor. Alberic A. Archambault. | also Franco-American, has been | neminated by the Democrats for gov- ernor. the same motive prompting this sclection as prompted that of Hebert.

Mo., October 20.— | The drift which has set in the last week toward Gov. Aiired E. Smith | among the dissatisfied rural Democrats | may save a few Democratic congress- | ional districts November 6. As a re- | sult of Gov. Smith’s tour of the State | early this week, reports from out-State | indicate the religious issue is reced- | ing slowly and that many of the anti- Smith Democrats are falling into line. But the best that can be hoped for | iz that Republicans will nearly double | | their present. representation of 4 of | 16_tepresentatives from Missouri. The Republicans now have the rep- | resentatives in the tenth and twelfth districts in St. Louis: the fourth dis- trict. which includes St. Joseph. and the fifteenth district, in the Ozarks of Southwest Missouri. The Democrats apparently will have no great trouble in re-electing Romjue in the first district and Lozier in the second. Milligan will have a hard fight in the third dis- trict. but probably will win. In the fourth district Faust, Republican, faces a battle but apparently has a substan- tial edge over his Democratic oppon- ent.

October 20.— e-clection of all three Republican lspresentatives in South Dakota is “learly indicated by reports received ncre from all parts of the three dis- tricts into which South Dakota is divided.
