Army, some Of whom are Democrats and some Repub-
licans. Through their efforts the order saspendng
Colonel Clay and appointing Lee was revoked.
Lee turned up here last week as O candidate for
the nomination for Governor and resolved more than
100 votes In the convention. HIS friends, in urging
bis claims be fore the convention declared that he had
