Bis adherents de tected immediately after their organization lb it he .would be the winning man, and without disparaging 'any of the other candidates before the convention, I think 1 may sifely assert that the intention was from the beginning to nominate a man who had been In active service under the old fug, and who had acquitted himself with ere lit without having re ceived a commission for his services.
