HELENA. Mont.-The candi- daey of Thomas Jefferson Walsh for the Democratic presidential nomination completes the span of a political career that he hewed out with his own hands.
 Walsh tasted bitter political de- feat in Montana before he won a victory. Montana takes it's poll. tics with the seriousness. tenacity of feeling that actuated the horse men who once pursued rustlers across it's open ranges.
 He was 31 when he came to Helena in 1890 to open a law of flee. It was 22 years later that he went to Washington as a United States senator. Today he is national figure, notably flor his work as prosecutor on the senate committee which ferreted out the illegal oil reserve leases.
 In 1910 the Montana legislature was deadloeked for weeks, unable to decide whether to send Walsh or Henry l.. Myers to the United States senate. Myers won by two votes. Four years earlier, Walsh, a lawyer with stern jaw under his dropping moustache, had sought in vain a congressional seat from his home district.
 But in 1912. when Montana vot. CTS made their own selection of United States senator for the first time, Walsh won. He was reelected in 1918 without diff. cnlty and again in 1924. He was a standard bearer for the admins. tration during the World war and a leader in the fight for Ameri. can membership in the League of Nations. But it was in the sum. mer and fall of 1923 that his beetling eyebrows and his droop ing moustache became recognized the country over, when he became the leader in the senate's special committee for the investigation oi the oil leases.
 Senator Walsh is a widower His wife, whom he married in Redfield. s. D., where he began the practice of law at the age oi 25. died in 1920 He has one oaughter, Mrs. Emmett c. Gudger now at Newport.

This summer he will be able to look eastward, if he comes to Zealandia. upon the 6,711-foot crest of Mt. Mitchell. which in turn is the highest peak east of the Black Hills.
 Beaucatcher is the central mountain of range of four. It got it's name years ago because of it's winding roads and paths of fered. as they still do. lure to courting couples.
 The house runs north and south with the mountain top, and is of varied heights because of the ir- regularity of the land on which it stands. Most of it is three stories high. and it's length is 800 feet or more. On the lower floor are an art gallery. filled with paintings. ceramics. weapons .and objects of art in ivory and gold. collected by MT. Henry. and library contain ing 10000 volumes. and collections of the letters of DisraeH and Jef- ferson Davis.
 The house stands $500 feet above sea level, well out of reach of rose fever and other lOWlanf1 afflictions and at about the same level as the presidents summer white house in the Black Hills . year ago. <.

N. '. GOVERNOR COMES BACK AT
 OIL CHAIRMAN
False Charges Made Calls for Apology Not
 Trade of Abuse

ALBANY. N. Y, March 27.- Gov. A. E. Smith. in letter to United States Senator Gerald P. Nye. Chairman of the Senate Oil Committee. suggests that the Senator apologize publicly for the alleged false statements made on the floor of the Senate re- garding campaign funds said to have been received by the Gov ernor from Harry F. Sinclair.
 Gov. Smiths letter says: "1t is an insult to the public intel ligence for you to suggest that in order for you To accomplish the proper purpose of the Senate committee it is necessary for me to submit without resentment to false and unjust statement from you. You made this state ment: you admitted that you made it. And you publicly stated that l had demonstrated its fal- sity The next step for you to have taken was a letter of apol- ogy and not a tirade of abuse.
 Yves Charges
 Senator Nye on Monday of last week had demanded in the Sen ate that Gov. Smith be called as witness before the oil commit tee, because, he said, it had been reported that Harry Sinclair had contributed to Gov. smiths cam an investigation had been made at his instance. wrote to Senator Nye. saying that there was no record anywhere nor any recol- lection in the minds of those con cerned that MT. Sinclair had con tributed a cent to the Democratic campaign fund in 1920 or at any other time He pointed out, also, that the whole Teapot Dome ne- gOtiations and transactions oc- cured long after the 1920 cam paign.
 Disclaims Attack
 Replying to Gov. Smiths letter with communication addressed to the latter and given to the press, Senator Nye disclaimed any purpose to attack Gov. Smith, and then said:
 'I expressly state you were not in any way involved in the oil scandals under investigation by the committee, of which I am chairman. You need not concern yourself in the least as to public humiliation which you state in your letter will bring down upon me 1 do not propose to be de- tered in the performance of my political duty by abuse or criti- cism of my work from you or any one else"
 Senator Wye did not stop there, however, and reused the ire of Gov. Smith by declaring the lat ter lis giving aid and comfort to every scoundrel whose infamy was exposed.
