Brennan is a_ Catholic and Smith a Methodist. The Ku Klux Kian is strong in some parts of the State, though not through the Si as a whole. But many of the klans- men are Democrats. Brennan is claiming a non-partisan, or rather a bi-partisan, support here in Chicago. He has intimated that he 4s mnot opposed to the Coolidge pol zh he id he would uinst the resolution pro- posing American adherence to the World Court if he had been in the enate. Just where he is to get the Republi votes is not so clear. Smith was supported in his fight salnst Senator McKinley for the . ial nomination last April by the Crowe-Barrett and Willlam Hale Thompson factions factions, if any, of the Republicans that Brennan might be expected to draw. Republicans Holding Back. While Mr. Brennan is at it hammer and tongs, the Republicans areshold- ing back thelr campaign, which they say will not begin much before October 1. In the first place Col. Smith is not he: nd is scarcely in a physical condition to carry on a long campaign himself. One danger which the Smith sup- porters face is a return visit of the Senate campaign Investigating com- mittee, promised for this month. If there should be further damaging dis- closures before the committee, the sltuation may be changed. There s not a little speculation here as to what will happen in the event of the death of Senator McKinley, who is desperately ill. His term does not expire until’ March 4 next. If he should die Gov. Small either would ap- point to fill temporarily the vacancy or a successor would be elected In November. In some quarters it is insisted that the Republican State committee could nominate a candidate and the Democratic State committee could do the same. In others the belief prevails that a primary would be necessary and those who hold that attitude say there is not time for a primary campaign to be followed by 2 campaign for the general. % 1f Gy tee should pick a Senator or a candi- date for election for the short term, as the case might be, it is belleved Col. Smith would be the choice. He has the friendship of the governor and also dominates the State committee, of which he had been chairman for many hLave vo It is from these | Small or the State commit- | 1 | of the Huerta or gardens of Val- encia’s countryside. “Every Amerlcan who has had any contact with the furous contentions Which have marked the history of irrigation in the United States, will be interested in the procedure and the remarkable history of the Tribunal de las Aguas of Valencia. No Place for Lawyers. S'obrl el tribunal’ announces a pleasant offictal of the court. The court is convened. The plaintiff, a peasant, in person makes his statement | to the court. Any interruption brings |a fine. Then the defendant, also a | peasant, states his side of the case. | One judge announces the verdict of the court. There is no appeal from the | decision. Neither the government of Spain nor of Valencia have any | part in the court, yet they honor its acts. None of its decisions is ever re- corded. No lawyers are permitted to | appear before the judges of the waters. They are men who know whereof they judge. They know what effect thelr rulings will have on the families concerned. They use ‘water to grow oranges, olives and rice. One Who watches the judges depart, the railing and sofa disappear, feels that there is a finality in this justice in- herited from the Moor.

When Senator Medill McCor- mick died before the close of his term after he had been defeated for re- election by Senator Deneen, Gov. Small then appointed Senator Deneen to fill out the unexpired term of Sen- ator McCormick. Four vears ago another referendum was held in Illinois on the prohibition | question, the question then being a | proposal’that light wines and beer be | legalized. The Anti-Saloon League at | that time advised the drys not to vote.
