TOM WALSH OF MONTANA

1t is interesting to note how some of the big ana influential
eastern newspapers regard Montanas senior senator. Regardless of
what party tag one may wear, state pride brings a Jingle of salts
faction at a comment like the following from the Springfield,
Mass) Republican:
One of the special objects of the republican senatorial campaign
committee is the defeat of Senator Walsh of Montana; and n Of
the reasons for the desire of western republicans that Senator Moses
keep out Of their territory has been that his presence anywhere near
Montana would make the task of defeating Walsh more difficult.
The retirement of Senator Walsh would be a misfortune. His
standing as the ablest lawyer in the senate has become Sc generally
recognized by informed students of congressional proceedings that
a representative of a news service, pledged to impartiaHty and sub
jct to the daily scrutiny of hundreds of members of different political
opinion, recently felt safe in sc stating in comment from Washing
ton. printed by republican newspapers.
1t is reported that local conditions in Montana, plus opposition
to put a republican in walshs seat. Yet his prominence in Wash
ington will doubtless continue to win for him the support, as a mat
ter of state pride, of voters who do not see eye to eye with him
on every issue. Six years ago there was also a hot drive against
Walsh; but in spite of the advantage the republicans enjoyed
through that being the year Of Calvin Cooidges Overwhelming vic
One of the reasons why Walsh was elected in 1924, and why,
unless conditions in Montana have undergone a remarkable change,
he will probably be reelected again this fall, is that there ire some
republicans broadminded enough to believe that the historic public
service which Walsh performed in uncovering the oil scandals was
something 81 big a. to put him above ordinary partisan opposition
and to entile him to his seat in the senate Is long as he runs for it,
There are republicans who cannot rise above the fact that those who
chiefly suffered from Wash's relentless pursuit were Of their party.
But in 1924 at least one republican senator, much in demand as a
speaker, served notice on the republican senatorial campaign com
cases would make it impossible for him to campaign against Walsh
anywhere in Montana /
Perhaps the most valid Indictment of Walsh was brought by
the late Chief Justice Taft of a few years ago in the freedom Of!
his study, when he referred to the fact that Walsh lacked a sense
of humor and that for anyone with Irish blood to lack humor was
so rare as to make him almost dangerous. But the chief justice
did not suggest that a lack of humor was a disqualification for the
senate; if it were, there would be a good many other vacant seats
