j. b. walker Comments ON His Decllna-
tion In the Washington Post.
WAsH1NoToN, July 8.-[Special. The
Washington Post this morning contains
the following paragraph written, it isisup-
posed. by Walker, who is a candidate for
the Helena postoffice: "The announcement
that Congressman T. H. Carter, of Montana,
would not run again for congress was
something of surprise. as this time two
years ago he was practically the
boss of his section and the country. The
only explanation M. Carter gives for re-
tiring at this time, when etposition to him
has been developed, is that the entire CON-
gressional delegation from Montana-the
two senators and himself-is from Helena
ana tnat it is only fair that the rest Of the
state should have some representation.
Neither Of the senators could be expected
to sacrifice himself, and as Mr.. Carter's
own preference is to return to the state, he
Voluntarily assumes to do the re-
firing act. This apparently plausible
explanation Of his course is taken
with some grains Of allowance by
his friends. Thomas has been regarded as
pretty smooth politician on his regular
heath and this sudden burst of unselfish-
ness has caused his acqnaintances to be-
lieve that his aspirations reach higher than
seat in congress. It is supposed that he
desires to succeed Senator Sanders, whose
term expires in 1888, and that he proposes
to spend the intervening period in keeping
his fences in repair" There is scarcely any
truth in the paragraph, unless Sanders
should refuse to be a candidate, when
Carter's chances would be good. The bills
granting the Fort Ellis reservation in Mon
tana to the state, and also granting govern
ment land to Miles City for a park, have
passed tho senate.
